Chapter 45
Maja wasn’t fazed by the sarcasm at all. She looked up at him and couldn’t help but burst into laughter
“Mr Gallegos, I’ve already made it crystal clear that I’m married There’s no need to get all riled up and
spiteful just because I turned down your advances, is there?” Her voice was clear and cool, echoed
around them, and followed by a few snickers from the crowd
Kurt’s face instantly turned a shade of purple and his fists clenched.
“You’re saying I pursued you?”
Maja arched an eyebrow, a look of feigned helplessness on her face
The silence now was more powerful than any words. She didn’t need to say anything more, she just let
the onlookers draw their own conclusions.
ndeed, it was Kurt who had brought her here initially, and it was only after hearing that Maja was
married that his attitude suddenly chilled.
Was he badmouthing her just because he couldn’t have her?
Though Maja’s behavior might be a little odd, but to target a woman just because she rejected him was

there were ound to be new business opportunities.
he didn’t want to draw attention and affect the Raymond Corporation’s business.
1 the eyes of these elite gentlemen, women were typically just accessories. Many men had brought
dates tonight, all obediently playing their supporting roles, none daring to be as brazen as Maja.
espite under everyone’s attention, Maja didn’t seem affected at all..
aught in a bind, Dana pointed at Maja recklessly, “You’re saying you don’t know me?! We met at
Raymond Tower last time, aren’t you Mr. Raymond’s designer?!”
lo sooner had the words left her mouth than lan’s brows furrowed:
ana’s words not only failed to expose Maja’s lies but they also directly informed everyone that she was
