Chapter 1092
7 o’clock in the evening
Downtown Greenfield.
lan stared at the documents in his hands, his eyes hardly blinking.
Earlier in the evening, he had visited the old family home one last time, sorting through the few belongings his
grandfather had left behind
His grandfather hadn’t left much, no extra inheritance for his descendants, and now the bulk of the shares in
Raymond Corporation were firmly in lan’s grasp Regardless of how much others might wrestle for it, they couldn’t
stir up any significant trouble
Ian had hoped that spending time sorting through his grandfather’s belongings would distract him from thoughts of
Maja.
But the code to unlock the box was like a needle, piercing deep into his heart
He remembered the time he had tried to rescue Maja during an earthquake and the door that wouldn’t open.
In his unconscious state, he saw Maja desperately trying different combinations, and finally, the door opened
He had trusted her so much then that he never for a moment thought it was anything other than a coincidence.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow likely could someone guess the correct code after only a few tries?
He had never questioned her motives, his mind filled with the life–and–death experiences they had shared
Now, thinking back, he realized the code was Eric’s birthday, the same as the one for her box.
Perhaps all her passwords were that same sequence of numbers
Even just thinking about it made lan feel sick as if he had been slapped across the face several times.
On that day of their hike, the forest air had been so fresh, and she had whispered stories of her childhood to him
while clinging to his back. Occasionally. she would swing her legs like a child and wipe the sweat off his brow with a
tender touch.
He had wished then that the road could go on forever, stretching out into the horizon.
lan laughed at his own naivety. If she had been acting all this time, then her acting skills were simply too good.
Had Maja never felt anything for him?
He began to recall every detail of their time together, even as it felt like self–torture. The sweet moments between
them were far too few. Initially, their relationship was purely transactional, and even after they confirmed their
love, it was less than two weeks before they parted ways.
He had thought that confirming their relationship was the start of their love story, not expecting it to be a fleeting
moment that ended abruptly.
Sitting in the darkness of the living room, lan could barely distinguish himself from the surrounding shadows
The staff of Greenfield Gardens had left early, leaving him alone in the mansion.
After packing away his grandfather’s belongings, he heard the doorbell ring.
Not really wanting to see anyone, he ignored it until he heard Tyler’s voice
“Tan, open up
lan opened the door to find Tyler holding a few bottles of wine
Behind him stood Fitch, both of them letting themselves in and closing the door behind them.
Tyler placed the wine bottles on the coffee table.
“I’ve been saving these for years, have a drink Phelps will join us too, and he should be here in about ten minutes”
Everyone knew that lan must be the one most affected by his grandfather’s passing, so his friends had come to
keep him company
Tyler poured a few glasses of wine and then noticed that the mansion was unusually dark, with only a few lights on
and the brightest one still off.
But nobody moved to turn it on, and perhaps the dim setting was more suited to masking one’s feelings
Tyler took a sip of his wine before reminding lan
“By the way. Judith drew out the snake venom for you that day and fainted afterward She’s still in the hospital She
was already weak, and the snake venom nearly took her life. If it weren’t for the incident in the Raymond family,
Dylan would probably have come to see you by now‘
Tyler was hinting at the fact that Judith had risked her life for lan, and the Sanders family might propose a marriage
alliance in return.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTan remained silent, staring quietly at the wine in his glass
Fitch, too, was unusually quiet even hinting to Tyler, not to mention the Sanders family
Even if lan was ready to move on, now was not the right time, especially with his grandfather’s recent passing
Fitch sighed.
“Ian, have a drink. It might help you feel better”
Fitch had heard that Maja might have been the woman Eric loved. If that were true, then Maja had been deceiving
lan all along
Cheating his feelings and indirectly causing his grandfather’s death
No one knew what Maja’s intentions were Could it be that she held a grudge against lan for taking away Enc’s
position as the heir?
Fitch’s pupils narrowed at the thought, and he couldn’t help but voice it out loud
