“So before my brother returns, I need her to be utterly reliant on me.”
Ian spoke calmly, glancing at the documents in front of him. “Once she’s dependent on me, she won’t ditch me.”
For once, Fitch was left speechless.
After Ian hung up the phone, he saw another incoming call from Tyler.
This time, he didn’t pick up, guessing yet another one of Tyler’s lousy ideas.
By the evening, he had sent Maja eight messages, all left unanswered.
At five in the afternoon, when he was about to head for a meeting, he passed out.
He had pushed himself too hard the previous night, stubbornly refusing to take medicine despite running a fever.
Now, he had fainted.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis collapse instantly sent the Raymond Corporation into a frenzy. Jeff rushed him to the hospital, while rumors of
Ian’s fainting began to circulate quietly amongst the circle.
Many people who had seen his Facebook posts were left puzzled.
There were recent rumors about him breaking up with Maja, and he had been seen with Judith. Word was that
Judith had even been hurt because of him. So why was he suddenly proclaiming his love for Maja again?
[If you ask me, Maja must have put a spell on Ian. How else to explain his devotion to a girl from nowhere?]
[Judith must feel pretty foolish now. She pursued him so relentlessly, only to be dismissed by his simple
proclamation of love for Maja.]
[What’s so great about Maja anyway?]
The gossip was rampant, and when word got out that Ian was sick, the chatter only intensified.
[Ian is a military man, and his physical strength is unparalleled. In my opinion, Maja is nothing but trouble.]
[Tell me about it. Ever since Maja became a member of the Raymond family, there’s never been peace. Now Mr.
Holden has passed away, yet Ian can’t seem to let go.]
[I’m insanely jealous of her! If only Ian would spare me a glance, I’d treat him like a king.]
Ian had many secret admirers, but he was infamously cold, barely engaging in conversation.
Especially during his years abroad, where he had minimal contact with anyone from the circle. Some women,
hearing that he was forced into marriage, tried to engage him in conversation, only to be met with silence. Most
couldn’t even become his friend on social media.
Some had met him at international art exhibitions and tried to strike up a conversation, but he was uninterested.
Business data seemed to be more intriguing to him than any woman.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmInitially, everyone thought his aloofness was due to Carlene. But it turned out that he didn’t actually fancy Carlene.
Upon his return, he immediately got involved with his own designer.
Now, his apparent desperation for Maja was driving everyone green with envy.
Someone spitefully leaked Ian’s news to the media, and the internet users were ecstatic.
[Mr. Raymond, such an outstanding man, must’ve been scared when he heard Maja was pursuing him, hahaha.]
[Here’s a joke. Maja probably started stalking him. With her looks, who knows how scared he must be.]
[When he wakes up, he should teach this ugly woman a lesson and kick her out of the entertainment circle.]
As the internet users were busy hurling insults at Maja, Judith felt a sense of satisfaction upon reading these
messages.
She had called Ian in the morning, only to find that she had been blocked.
In the evening, she went to Dylan’s place in tears, only for him to warn her not to instruct Wind to harm anyone.
“Dylan, you’re really not willing to help me?”
With tears in her eyes, Judith clung to Dylan’s arm while instructing Wind to post about Maja’s ridiculous parents
being jailed.
