Chapter 1191
Maja didn’t catch his last words as lan slid into the driver’s seat.
As his hands gripped the steering wheel, Maja stared straight ahead.
1 don’t want you to hand over the Raymond Corporation to Eric.”
lan remained silent, his foot off the gas pedal.
Tan, it’s as if there’s another person living inside Eric. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but his personality has
drastically changed. He used to be gentle, but now he’s become aggressive, willing to do whatever it takes to
achieve his goals. His six–year disappearance seems to have changed him.”
Her eyebrows knotted in concern as she spoke
She was to warn lan not to be negligent, but all she received in return was lan’s glum response.
“Do you know his previous personality that well?”
His words made Maja feel instantly an air of jealousy emerging in the car.
Memories of her relationship with Eric surfaced, leaving her speechless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe silently chastised herself for speaking too much. After all, lan was Eric’s brother. He would know better than
anyone else about Eric’s change
Lowering her eyes, she heard lan’s voice.
“I don’t want to hear his name or anything about him from you.”
Inside the car, they remained silent until reaching the Rosewood Manor
Maja led the way, and as she walked in the entrance, she was greeted enthusiastically by Coco.
Woof, woof, woof!”
Coco’s tail wagged furiously as it tugged at the hem of Maja’s pants.
Bending down, Maja cupped Coco’s face in her hands, gently soothing it.
She felt a burning gaze at her back, knowing instantly who it was
On hearing Coco’s barks, Maria, warmly greeted them. But upon seeing lan, her face instantly altered.
“Mr. Raymond, you’re here too”
lan ignored her, heading straight upstairs.
Maja patted Coco’s head, a gift from Eric that now held a different meaning.
She took off her coat, hearing Maria ask, “Ms. Pennyfeather, what would you like to eat for tonight?”
I’m good. I’ll go upstairs to get some rest”
Maria held her tongue, wanting to ask about the sudden reappearance of Mr. Raymond in Maja’s life. Ian wasn’t a
good match for Maja, but merely moving her lips, she didn’t utter anymore.
The rest of the staff in the Rosewood Manor also felt discomfort at lan’s presence.
Similarly Maja didn’t receive a warm welcome amongst lan’s friends.
Friends from both sides felt the two were mismatched.
Entering the master bedroom, Maja noticed the sound of running water from the bathroom.
She knocked, asking if he needed sleepwear. The door cracked open, a wet hand pulling her in..
The shower overhead was still running, instantly soaking her. Her eyes squinted against the water as lan expertly
unbuttoned her clothes.
In less than two minutes, Maja was bare
The next second, her legs were hoisted onto his arms, her back against the wall
lan was significantly taller than her, so from behind, only her legs were visible.

Having pulled an all–nighter at the office the night before, she was already tired. Now, lan was trying to do it with
her, and all she felt was exhausted.
Yet, Tan seemed oblivious to her fatigue, his actions rough.
By the time it was over, Maja had passed out.
“Maja”
Realizing something was amiss, lan quickly carried her to the bedroom.
Too tired to even lift a finger, Maja fell asleep against the pillow.
Standing by the bed, lan checked her forehead to ensure she was just tired. He released a sigh of relief.
While due to having not released it, he found it hard to sleep He headed to the balcony for a smoke.
He spent the entire night there, watching as the sun rose. Below, a white figure caught his eye, Coco
The staff at the Rosewood Manor loved Coco. Someone was playing with it, while Coco ran around joyfully
