Chapter 1232
When Maja stirred for the second time, she was once again enveloped in darkness.
She fumbled her way around the room, attempting to rise, but was stopped by the voice of a maid.
Ms Pennyfeather, do you need to use the restroom?”
Maja nodded, and was gently helped to the bathroom
The bathroom was well–equipped with soft padding to prevent any accidents. Clearly, during her rest, it had been

The man was tall, holding a black umbrella appearing like a god from her perspective.
However, she felt uneasy
After being helped back to her bed and having had something to eat, she stood by the window.

her forehead. Her pallor and weariness evoked sympathy
“You’ll know who I am once your sight returns.”
Maja, her hand resting on the window sill, asked indifferently. “Why did you bring me here? Are you trading with me
or using me to threaten lan?”
Threaten lan?”
The man chuckled, “He’s barely holding up as it is. Why would I threaten him?”
Majas heart skipped a beat. What happened to lan?
Before she could ask, the man continued

She sensed that lan cared for her more than she had initially thought
Although he never voiced it, she could feel it
“Maja, lan is surrounded by enemies Your blindness is a weakness, potentially his deadliest”

acquaintances, and it was likely the subject of

People would realize how much he cared for this woman and if she returned, those who wanted to harm him
wouldn’t let her off the hook
What’s more, the attitude of those higher up was unclear
Maja was anxious and once again felt her own vulnerability
only she had more power
Her fingertips curled in her face turning solemn
The man observed her yearning for power a smirk tugged at his lips
But he didnt reveal hus intentions, instead he turned to leave
“Rest for now if you want to know about lan, Ill come by daily to update you”
