Chapter 855

When Phelps got back to his office, he mulled over the incident, unable to contain himself, so he shot lan a text.

[Sorry, mate.]

lan’s response was swift. [What’s up?]

[I accidentally saw her in the buff.]

No sooner had he sent the message than lan called, his voice steeped in anger.

“Phelps, what do you mean by ‘I accidentally saw her in the buff?‘ You’re saying you accidentally saw her naked?”

Phelps, massaging his temples, gave a detailed rundown of the incident, adding, “I’ve sent a nurse to take care of

her.” lan felt a lot better after hearing this and hung up..

Then, he called Maja.

Maja, now with a fresh quilt, answered his call.

“Maja, is your fever any better?”

“Yeah.”

“Do you find Phelps attractive?”

“What?”

Maja frowned, unsure what he meant.

After a minute of silence, lan asked again.

“Why didn’t you respond to my text?”

“I haven’t checked my phone.”

“I missed you.”

The previous conversation was bland, but hearing these words suddenly made Maja’s heart race, and she

involuntarily sat up straight.

She didn’t reply, and lan didn’t say anything else.

Both of them lapsed into silence, but neither hung up.

Unable to stand the tension, Maja was about to ask him if there was anything else when he asked again.

“Do you miss me?”

She was taken aback, feeling heat spreading through her body, her breath quickening.

lan was patient, awaiting her reply, but she asked, “Do you think you can have the upper hand with the venture

capital agreement?”

He looked out the window, “I’m not sure.”

Maja immediately felt a sense of urgency, “lan, are you pulling my leg!? If you lose, then the Raymond

Corporation.”

She was agitated, knowing if he did lose, Dennis would surely give him hell!

“If I lose, will you take care of me? Can I come work at your company?”

“lan!” She was pissed, thinking: he’s still joking around at a time like this!

lan chuckled, looking at the drizzle outside and sighed, “Maja, I’ll be back soon.”

With that, he ended the call.

Maja couldn’t rest now, and he actually said he wasn’t sure.

lan, always so confident, was now doubting himself for the first time?

So, this business battle was really like a gamble to him.

She hurriedly got out of bed, nearly collapsing due to her weakness.

After steadying herself against the wall, she rushed out.

The nurse tried to stop her, “Ms. Pennyfeather, you need to rest. You’re still weak.”

But Maja discharged herself from the hospital and called Beck, wanting information about the EcoTraverse Group’s

shares.

The EcoTraverse Group was unique. Its share information was confidential, which was against business principles,

but their car sales were so good and they could ignore the rules.

Maja was on edge. Each time she thought of lan possibly facing a huge blow, she felt a desperate urge to fly to

North America.

On her way to see Beck, due to her poor health, she tripped and fell. When she arrived at the bar, her forehead

was covered in sweat.

Beck saw her and frowned, “Are you worried sick over lan?”

That woke her up.

Indeed, this was lan’s matter. Her anxiety back home was meaningless.

“Penny, let me level with you. If this bet is important to lan, my sister, who has a crush on him, would help him. Did

you see my sister when you came back from abroad? She’s been spoiled since she was little, can’t stand the

slightest grievance, and always talked in a sweet voice. Even if she has to shell out tens of millions of dollars to help

lan, I think our Sanders family wouldn’t stop her.”

Beck’s words hit Maja like a slap to the face.

While she was fretting over lan, all she could do was probe the EcoTraverse Group’s movements, trying to help him

from a business standpoint. Meanwhile, the Sanders family’s princess could just throw loads of cash at the problem.

The gap between them was too wide, especially since lan had already met the Sanders family’s princess.

Seeing her a bit down, Beck passed her a drink.

“Penny, you might think it’s unfair, but there’s nothing you can do. My sister already called me, and she wanted me

to get rid of you. I liked you so I didn’t want to do that, but my older brother won’t let you off easily. If he came to

Greenfield, he’d fulfill all my sister’s requests.”
