Chapter 988
Before he knew Maja was his cousin’s wife, Ryan expressed his puzzlement and indifference towards her, just like
most people did, wondering how the Raymond family could let such a woman in.
But knowing the truth changed everything.
Maja wasn’t just talented in painting and interior design but also successful in running her own company. Only a
woman like her could match his
cousin.
The princess of the Sanders family, Judith, indeed came from a powerful background, but compared to this
greenhouse flower, Maja, who had fought her way through thorns, was the real gem.
If Maja were born into a family like Judith’s, she would be even more successful.
But if Judith were born into Maja’s circumstances, she’d be just an ordinary woman.
That’s what Ryan admired about Maja.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaja was deeply touched by Ryan’s support. He had even helped her with the Greenfield Gardens project.
“Mr. Elston, affairs of the heart aren’t something outsiders can interfere with. Maybe lan has come to his senses,
thinking it’s better to find a well–matched partner,”
“You can just call me Ryan, and I will ask my cousin about his thoughts.”
With that, Ryan hung up the phone.
Ryan was a hot–headed and impulsive man. Now, within the entire Raymond family, he was the only one who could
persuade lan.
Just as he was about to find lan, he spotted Maureen about to descend the stairs.
“Ryan, where are you going?”
Ryan hadn’t spoken to his so–called mother in several days. Now, he silently changed his shoes by the entryway,
ignoring her.
Maureen felt a pang of sorrow. Everything she had done was for her son, so why had their relationship turned out
this way?
“Ryan, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have gotten involved in the Raymond family’s disputes. Your attitude now is
heartbreaking.”
Ryan paused, looking up at her without expression.
“Mom, what I hate most about parents is that they always put their decisions onto their children. If you did
everything for me, you should know what I truly want. Do you think I’d be happy to see my cousin in trouble
because of you? If you disregard my wishes, don’t say it’s for me. I can’t
bear it.”
Maureen stood still, realizing that she didn’t really understand her son.
She thought he was just a spoiled rich kid living off his parents‘ wealth. She planned to secure a decent job for him,
thinking he could live a peaceful and comfortable life.
She hadn’t realized he held such resentment towards his parents.
As she fell silent, Ryan finished changing his shoes and left the house without another word.,
First, he called lan, asking where he was.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlan was currently at Fitch’s research lab, where many people were busy analyzing data.
“What was that?”
“Cousin, I just want to have a drink with you.”
lan glanced at the wall clock. He still had about an hour left here.
“You go to Greenfield Gardens first.”
“Alright, cousin. I’ll wait for you there.”
After hanging up, lan continued to review the data Fitch had analyzed.
No one knew where Holden had been taken. If he had gone willingly and was helping the other party conceal all
information, then at some point, he should have released some signals.
However, none of lan’s people, Fitch’s team, or a special task force had found any clues so far.
lan looked at the verse printed on the draft paper.
He stared at it for several minutes, a thought flashing through his mind. But a few seconds later, he shook his head
slowly.
He was going crazy. What a bizarre thought.
