Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 180

Ian had seen Rita before, he knew she worked at the Raymond Corporation, so he just gave her a slight nod.

Rita clapped a hand to her mouth in surprise, glancing inside before looking back at Ian.

Wasn't Penny already hitched? Her hubby couldn't possibly be Ian, otherwise Ryan should be telling her, instead of telling her Maja was his friend.

But it was nighttime now, and Mr. Raymond was coming out of Penny's room.

Everybody at the Raymond Corporation knew that Mr. Raymond was a chilly character, not much of a talker. He wouldn't be meeting women privately, even if Penny was his interior designer. If they needed to discuss house stuff, they should be meeting at the Raymond Corporation office.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Rita's mind, and she remembered that painting Maja had done.

She had thought it was just a doodle by Maja, but now it seemed like there might be some connection between the painting and Mr. Raymond.

That could also explain why young Penny ended up as Mr. Raymond's interior designer.

So Maja had used some underhanded methods to get this job.

Rita didn't have much respect for women like that. She felt a bit uncomfortable, but with Ian standing in front of her, she didn't dare show any emotions and just hoped she could get back to her room as fast as possible.

Ian glanced in the direction she came from. Were they neighbors?

"Penny's running a fever, but there's no one to take care of her right now. Can you take care of her?"

His tone was cold, and he had already walked to the elevator at this moment. Rita thought for a moment, but couldn't help saying, "Mr. Raymond, I'm Ryan's girlfriend. Ryan told me Penny is already married, her husband should be coming home to take care of her. But he's always so busy, out early and back late."

Rita didn't know why she was saying all this.

She thought she was already lucky enough to be with Ryan, considering she was just a receptionist.

She never expected a married woman like Penny would catch Ian's attention.

How many women in this city would like to marry him? She probably couldn't even count them all.

Rita hung her head, maybe she was just jealous. How could a married woman be good enough for Ian?

Mr. Raymond was a high-roller, meeting him here was already like him slumming it.
