The atmosphere in the grand hall was stiff, the kind of silence where you could hear a pin drop. Mr.
Sanders stood up, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction as he looked at Maja. “You’ve got a bit of
Augus’s spirit in you. Stay here for the night; once the results are in, I’ll inform you and” He paused,
clearly not recognizing Ian, before continuing, “Let Maja and her boyfriend get settled in.” Maja nodded,
a smile gracing her lips. “Thanks.” Mrs. Sanders’s gaze couldn’t help but drift back to Ian’s face, her
brow furrowing slightly, but she ultimately held her tongue. A few meters away, Mr. Sanders turned to
the butler, “Take Maja and her boyfriend upstairs, so they won’t be jostled by anyone.” Maja was
relieved for the excuse to escape the crowd. There were still over two dozen members of the Sanders
clan in the hall, waiting like vultures for the patriarch to leave before they’d likely start causing trouble.

couple followed the butler, taking the elevator up to the fourth floor of the mansion. “Ms. Pennyfeather,
sir, this will be your room.” The door swung open to reveal a spacious interior. But even the grandest of
rooms couldn’t stir Maja anymore. Having seen the lavishness of the underground fight clubs, she was
unimpressed. Once the door closed behind them, Maja scanned the surroundings to ensure there were
no cameras before frowning. “I can’t shake the feeling that Grandpa and Grandma were a bit off with
you.” They were both old hands at the game; why did they look so shocked upon seeing Ian’s face, as
if they’d spring from their chairs? Ian touched his face, then shook his head slowly. The two moved to
the window, with Ian clearly a bit upset. With his status and reputation, he hadn’t expected to be met
with such disdain when coming home with a woman. If their compatibility was questioned, to whom did
the Sanders family intend to marry Maja off? Seeing his concern, Maja reached up and clasped his
wrist. “Match or not, we’ll stick together.” She placed his hand on her stomach, her voice firm, “As a
family, we’ll never be apart.” A smile flickered in Ian’s eyes, and he chuckled softly. “It’s

not you I doubt. I’m worried they might pull something. Augus never ended up with Lillian because of
family pressure. Maja, even though Augus is bedridden now, he was a legend in his youth. If he
couldn’t stand up to those two old folks, how can you?” Maja had already considered this, her grip on
his hand tightening. “If it turns out we’re not a match, we’ll elope, head straight to where my mother is.”
Ian laughed again, his heart melting. He pulled her into an embrace, patting her back gently. “If eloping
would solve everything, I’d do it in a heartbeat. I’m just afraid they’ve got more up their sleeve. Your

how he was pressured by the family. That’s what worries me.” But worrying was pointless for now; they
had to wait for the results. Maja suddenly remembered not seeing Dylan in the hall. Had he been
stripped of his Sanders family status to the point that he wasn’t even allowed here? A knock on the
door broke her thoughts, and she opened it to find Beck. “My brother’s been barred from coming here.
Grandpa held a conference call and agreed to cast him out of the Sanders family, cutting off all his
future connections too.” The Sanders family was ruthless. There was a certain harshness that seemed
to emanate from their very bones, casting off one of their own without a second thought. Beck
massaged his temples, “So you should understand why the Sanders family doesn’t tolerate infighting.
Everyone has to follow the rules here, or it’s not just about being exiled from the family. There have
been those among the Sanders who’ve dabbled in drugs, and they ended up far worse than my
brother. The rules are untouchable.”
