Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 260

Nathan was sweating bullets, regretting his decision to blow his own trumpet too early in front of Gerber to curry favor. Later, he crossed paths with the president of Silverstone Enterprises. Wanting to show off his ability, he exaggerated his capabilities.

If he couldn't complete this task, his situation at Gerber's would go from bad to worse.

"Penny, I'm not representing Silverstone Enterprises. I'm just here on my boss's orders to scope out the situation. The big cheese at Silverstone Enterprises is tied up entertaining other big shots and can't meet with you right now. I took it upon myself to say that I know you and apologize for that."

Nathan's words were more sincere than before, revealing his ulterior motives.

He got up and fetched coffee and cookies from the front desk, being extra polite.

"Let's wait half an hour until the boss at Silverstone Enterprises wraps up his business; then, I'll take you upstairs."

Given the fact that he was a friend of Felix Brown, whom Carol Miller currently has a crush on, Maja agreed.

Not knowing what to chat about with Nathan, she pulled out her laptop, thinking about altering her original design.

The lighting would change as the original design couldn't be used anymore. She kept tweaking the procedure, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Nathan dared not interrupt, only noticing her empty coffee cup and silently fetching her a fresh cup.

Once Maja got down to work, she lost track of time. Half an hour had already flown by.

Ian had finished his work, and the big wigs at Silverstone Enterprises and the Raymond Corporation had all arrived downstairs.

Ian and the president of Silverstone Enterprises were leading the pack. He immediately spotted the person sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window in the distance.

She was absorbed in her laptop while the man beside her brought her coffee.

They looked pretty harmonious.

Ian paused momentarily, pulled his gaze back, and continued walking silently towards the main entrance.

The president of Silverstone Enterprises didn't notice his hesitation, only feeling that Ian's vibe turned colder.

The president of Silverstone Enterprises also spotted Maja, and his heart skipped a beat, but seeing that his employee had indeed managed to detain Maja for so long in the lobby, he was pretty pleased.

After seeing off Ian, the president of Silverstone Enterprises wiped the sweat off his forehead and hurriedly went to find Maja.
