Chapter 1236
Her head was spinning and her anxiety mounted to the point where she felt an ache at the back of her skull. Her
temples throbbed, the pain so intense it made her
nauseous
She didn’t realize that the incense burning in the room was heavily influencing her emotional state
The man stood up and helped her to her feet.
“You need to rest Stop worrying about everything for now
He assisted Maja onto the bed, but once she lay down, her headache seemed to intensify
The man forced a pill into her mouth
“You’re too worked up to rest properly. Take this sleeping pill and stop overthinking”
Like a marionette. Maja opened her mouth and swallowed the pill obediently
The man sat by the bed his eyes fixed on her beautiful face. He reached out, gently brushing a stray lock of hair
from her ears.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaja had already dozed off, oblivious to his actions.
The man sat quietly by the bed for ten minutes, his gaze drifting towards the burning incense not far away
The amount of incense was enough to scramble her thoughts, but Maja’s willpower was stronger than most
If they stayed here much longer, lan’s men would find them quickly. They couldn’t afford to waste any more time
He took out something and added it to the incense. Another man entered, witnessing the scene.
“Mr K, we’re already at the limit with the incense. If we increase it any more, Ms. Pennyfeather might suffer some
mental side effects”
But the man didn’t hesitate to increase the dosage
Don’t worry, the effects on the brain are reversible. Even if she experiences short–term issues, she’ll recover in
time.”
The other man respectfully stood at the entrance, deciding not to argue further
Another day passed
When Maja woke up, her mind felt much clearer, but she had no idea this was the terrifying power of the incense
It could cloud her thoughts when provoked, yet make her feel incredibly relaxed after sleeping
She found her way to the window, feeling the breeze coming from outside
Minutes later, she traced her way along the walls until she reached the door, which she then opened
There was no guard outside the door She continued to feel her way along until she reached a corridor
Her footsteps were soft, the echoing sound indicated the length of the hallway, suggesting the mansion was quite
vast
When she reached one of the rooms, she could hear voices from inside
“Enc’s goal is to kill lan. The moment lan signs the share transfer, he will die.”
“And Steve has expressed strong disapproval of lan as well. Not to mention Dylan’s relentless attempts to sabotage
the Raymond Corporation’s business.”
“In my opinion, those people from the Raymond Corporation are ungrateful. lan did so much for the Raymond
family, yet no one stood by him. Even Maureen tampered with lans car He had an accident today and broke two
fingers”
When Maja heard this her heart skipped a beat
The man glanced at where Maja stood a smirk on his lips
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had known she was eavesdropping The conversation was for her benefit, to urge her to make a decision quickly
He wanted her to cut ties with lan soon!
Blinded by the news, Maja decided to retreat the way she came
But in her haste she tripped losing a shoe and hitting her forehead on the ground. The pain made her head spin
The door behind her suddenly opened, and footsteps approached.
It was the man’s voice
Soon, someone was by her side, helping her up
Her leg ached and she felt someone crouch beside her Then, her lost shoe was slipped onto her foot
The man admired her delicate foot, and with a downward glance, he slowly rose ‘Are you okay?
Maja shook her head reaching for the wall beside her as she prepared to leave
“Maja, don’t push yourself
He grabbed her arm but she stopped
She leaned against the wall, her voice raspy
“I want to see lan Can I see him, please?
She pleaded. “I beg you”
