Chapter 1085

The funeral of the Raymond family patriarch was a grand affair. Given his prominent status, it was inevitable that

many high–ranking individuals would attend, making any attempt at discretion impossible

On the day the funeral was held, lan, a member of the Raymond family, was conspicuously absent. One dignitary

after another arrived, with rows of cars lining the entrance

In addition to the dignitaries, many business tycoons who were closely linked to the Raymonds also attended. Some

struck up conversations with the family members, inquiring about lan’s whereabouts, but no one seemed to know

While the patriarch’s funeral was a sensation within their circle, word of it hadn’t spread beyond that However,

anyone who was curious enough would have discovered the news of Holden’s passing

Meanwhile, Maja was trapped in a small room, alerted to the sound of footsteps approaching Over the past couple

of days, her visitors were either a gentleman or a flamboyant one

The gentleman would typically knock, but the other would barge unannounced Over time, she learned to distinguish

the two by their entrance

The footsteps ceased, and the door swung open. The man stood there, holding several bottles of liquor, his eyes

red and swollen as he looked up at her

Startled, Maja recoiled, her eyebrows furrowing

The next second, the man was by her side, setting out two shot glasses in front of her and pouring himself a drink

“Maja, have a drink with me,” he demanded.

Maja didn’t move, merely looking at him calmly.

After downing three shots quickly, the man, Patric, suddenly grasped her chin, raised his glass, and forced her to

down the strong liquor

Choked by the alcohol, Maja coughed violently. This kind of force–feeding could be life–threatening

Fortunately, he only made her drink a small amount before continuing to drink glass after glass himself

Maja didn’t stop him. If he got drunk, she would have a chance to escape.

After ten shots, Patric finally looked at her with intoxicated eyes. “Maja, you’re quite my type, he slurred, propping

his chin on his hand and staring at her.

Maja felt violated, but after a few days of interaction, she understood this mans temperament.

He was self–centered and eccentric

Patric pushed another glass toward her. “Drink up.”

Maja looked at the drink in front of her, ascertaining that it wouldn’t make her drunk. She then slowly picked up the

glass and downed it in one gulp.

She did this in the hope that it would encourage Patric to drink more, giving her a chance to escape

As expected, Patric raised an eyebrow and poured himself several more glasses.

After a while, he said softly. “Did you know that Holden has passed away?”

Maja thought she was hearing things. She looked up at him in disbelief.

A smirk played at the corners of Patric’s mouth as he saw the tears welling up in her eyes. Today was his funeral All

of Greenfield turned out. But an was nowhere to be found. I guess he’s off hiding somewhere. He was taken care of

by Holden. Now, with Holden gone, he must be the one hurting the most Plus, with you here with me, he’s really

pitiful, don’t you think?”

In response. Maja snatched a liquor bottle and splashed it in his face

Patric wiped his face dry with a handkerchief and glared at her

Maja tried to run for the door, but he grabbed her wrist

“Does it hurt when I mention lan? Finally dropping the sweet act, are you?” he taunted.

A few steps forward, Maja felt a sharp pain in her wrist, and her vision blurred. She looked back at him but saw

multiple figures before her Everything was spinning She collapsed onto the floor, shaking her head, but the room

continued to spin.

“What did you put in the drink?” she demanded.

“What else? You were waiting for me to get drunk so you could escape, weren’t you?” he replied, a smirk on his

face

He looked down at her on the floor and sighed lightly “If you had been more obedient, I wouldn’t have had to resort

to this Tomorrow morning, were taking a flight out of here. lan will probably be at the mortuary, claiming Holders

ashes. He won’t have time to look for you. Plus, Holden’s last words would have surely been a request for him to

stay away from you. Maja, you’ve been abandoned”
