Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 165

Dana couldn't accept it. She had a good relationship with her sister. After being recommended by her sister to join the Raymond Corporation, she also had a smooth life in the Raymond Corporation because of her sister's relationship with Ian. But ever since Maja showed up, Dana had been criticized by Ian for the first time, and then again.

He'd never treated her like this before.

Tears welled up in Dana's eyes. Even without her laying it on thick, her victim act was enough to make people suspicious of Maja.

She didn't respond to Maja's words, making the atmosphere somewhat awkward.

The senior management was eyeing Maja. She wasn't exactly a known figure. Even though she had some reputation among interior designers, none of these executives were her clients, so they all considered her a rookie.

But Dana was a different story. She was Carlene's sister, and Carlene was set to be the future wife of the Raymond Corporation's president.

If anyone stood up for Dana now, it would be like sucking up to Mr. Raymond.

So, some of them started speaking up.

"Which floor do you work on? We all saw it clear as day when the doors opened, Ms. Shepard was on her knees in front of you, and you didn't even help her up. And you do know that you need an appointment to come up to the top floor, right? You're not like one of those women who keep pestering the receptionist, trying to sneak up here to see the president, are you?"

It was true that some women had tried to sneak up with the top floor staff before being caught and hauled off by the cops.

Everyone knew Ian couldn't stand that sort of harassment.

When Dana heard the executive's questioning, a small smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, but her eyes became even redder, making her look terribly wronged.

Dana was good-looking, and it was easy for a man to comfort her with the crying appearance. But because of her ties with Carlene, the male staff at the top had never dared to confess their feelings to her, although they'd made plenty of attempts to win her favor behind the scenes.

And now they had a bunch of executives here who were suckers for damsels in distress.

Compared with the weak Dana, the expressionless Maja was not very popular with men. Most men have heroism and like to play the protector.

Maja turned to Ian, who didn't seem inclined to help her out.

It seemed like she was only rely on her own.

"I have a personal appointment with Mr. Raymond himself today."

She said, pulling out her business card with a smile.

"I'm Penny. I was responsible for Mr. Raymond's house renovation. I'm here to update him on the progress. I apologize for not helping Ms. Shepard up just now. That was my bad."
