Chapter 1149
Dylan had already investigated the Raymond family, knowing that there was Eric, but Eric had supposedly passed
away years ago. This evening, a man suddenly appeared, claiming to be Eric.
Dylan had his people look into it and from the resemblance this man bore to lan, he finally confirmed his identity.
Eric was still alive
But from what he had heard about Eric, he was said to be a very gentle man, quite unlike the ruthless man before
him now.
Perhaps these nearly seven years had changed him dramatically
Patrick picked up his glass of whiskey, took another sip, and tossed his cigarette butt into the nearby trash can.
“Before my grandfather passed away, he left a will. He had initially transferred 15% of his shares to lan, under the
condition that I was deceased. If I was still alive, however, those 15% of shares should be mine, meaning, I could
return as a high–ranking member of the Raymond Corporation”
That night, Eric had used a self–destructive method to help Maja, and Patrick was still furious about it.
Fine, if Eric wanted to cause trouble, then he would too, and let the whole of Greenfield fall into chaos!
It was Eric who first broke their agreement, so he couldn’t be blamed
Patrick took out Mr. Holden’s will, sounding triumphant.

“Even if that’s true, all you would get is 15% of the shares.”
Patrick laughed lightly, swirling his whiskey glass. That’s enough. I can still intervene in lan and Maja’s relationship.
After all, I am Maja’s first love.”
“Mr. Raymond, I need to thoroughly investigate this matter. I have to be cautious.”
Patrick shrugged, indicating he didn’t mind.
The next day at noon, while lan was lying in the hospital, he received a message. He only glanced at it, hesitated a
moment, then deleted it. Then he opened his chat with Maja. He knew Maja must be concerned about him,
otherwise, she wouldn’t have quietly removed him from her blacklist.
He sent her another message
[Spent the whole night at the hospital, feeling miserable]
At that moment, Maja was about to meet a well–known female screenwriter, who was rumored to have a strange
temper and was also friends with Tyler
Tyler didn’t like her, so this screenwriter probably didnt either.
On the way there, she saw lan’s message.
She didn’t reply.
The screenwriter she was meeting had a new script which seemed tailor–made for Cornelia. Maja had sent some
men to negotiate with her, but the screenwriter refused to meet them
Now, it seemed she had started contacting Beck and was likely to collaborate with the Sanders family.
Maja didn’t want to miss this script, so she decided to meet with the screenwriter herself.
She hadn’t expected the screenwriter would agree to meet. They made an appointment at a coffee shop near a
high school
When Maja arrived, she asked her bodyguard to wait outside the coffee shop
She went inside and immediately spotted the woman sitting by the window. The screenwriter’s name was Coral
Albright
Maja had heard her name before. She was obsessed with her work, but unlike Tyler who was a commercial
screenwriter, Coral only produced a prece every three years. Each of her works was well received, and having the
opportunity to work with her meant that the leads in her TV series would become A–list stars overnight
“Ms. Albright”
Maja walked over and shook her hand.
Coral stood up, her tone indifferent, “I’ve heard about you from Tyler”
It probably wasn’t anything good
Maja smiled. She had researched Coral’s personality before the meeting Coral was straightforward, didn’t like
making friends, and spent her days seeking inspiration in nature and creating her works
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo as soon as she sat down, Maja offered the greatest investment benefits that she could provide and promised not
to interfere with her creative
process
Coral’s pale fingers held a spoon, her face cold
“Tyler introduced me to lan before.”
She said this without any change in her tone, “That was before he got married”
Maja continued to smile at her, “I’ve seen your works. Coral. They are mature and delicate, reflecting your
character. I believe you would prefer a meture and stable man.”
In other words, lan wasn’t suitable as he wasn’t mature enough in his relationships.
Coral chuckled, finally appraising Maja seriously.
After few seconds, she smiled and said. “I met lan at a banquet. Tyler wanted to set us up, so he got me drunk and
left me alone with lan. I was thirsty after drinking, and when I asked him if he had any water, he asked me if my
hands were broken. Tyler wanted to match–make us and even Holden met me. But after that, I kept my distance
from him. How should I put it, he’s not very considerate”
Coral’s coffee didn’t have a drop of milk or sugar. She took a sip.
“So I was a bit curious when I heard from Tyler that you were entangled with lan How can you stand him?”
