Chapter 1228
The faint aroma of medicine lingered on the sheets, imbuing the air with a tranquil ambiance.
Maja had anticipated a night of nightmares, yet even in her unconscious state, she experienced a sense of
tranquility
The man sat by her bedside. Seeing her deep in slumber, he rose, drawing the curtains across the windows to
shield the mom from the sunlight outside
Inside, another man reported to him
“lan and Dylan are locking horns, Dylan’s already initiated a complete blockage on the Raymond Corporation’s
projects
“Hmm”
The man’s tone was light as he looked out. He was smiling. “And throw Eric into the mix, the chaos begins, doesn’t

His gaze wandered over the distant garden, before returning to settle on Maja
After falling asleep. Maja was very peaceful
The next step would be to snap her lingering feelings for lan
Sentimental affection would only cloud her future decisions.
What he needed wasn’t a decision–maker easily swayed by a man.
The room fell into silence, his fingers playing with the still–burning incense, as the man beside him spoke
Although this incense has a calming effect, combined with the medicine you’ve given her, it could cause her to be in
a daze. Sir, it would be prudent to be careful with these two‘
know my limits I won’t harm her.”
The other man said no more, quietly retreating from the room,
lan had a nightmare. He woke up abruptly, gasping for breath.
Looking around, he realized he had fallen asleep on the couch.
After several days without rest, his eyes were bloodshot. He had dozed off on the couch but was roused by a
nightmare.
Thinking of the dream, he picked up a nearby glass of water, hoping to suppress the rising fear. But his hands
trembled slightly, causing the water in the glass to ripple before the glass slipped from his grip, shattering on the
floor with a crisp sound.
At that moment, the living room door opened, and Jeff walked in
lan quickly asked. “Any news yet?”
Jeff’s expression was grave as he slowly shook his head, unable to resist adding “Mr. Raymond, Eric’s been handling
the Raymond Corporation’s issues for several days now, and he’s doing it exceptionally well. The board members
hope that you can return soon, or there might be new changes in the Raymond Corporation
Even though lan held more than fifty percent of the shares, and was still the absolute authority, it would be
challenging to manage the company if the board members were
not on his side
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow that Eric was frequently meeting with business partners, rumors were circulating that Eric was about to take
over the Raymond Corporation
There were even whispers that lan had lost his will to fight due to Maja’s disappearance
Some even speculated if this was Eric’s doing
However, Eric’s image was so pristine in everyone’s minds that no one believed that he would resort to such tactics.
“Mr. Raymond, perhaps you should wisit the company tomorrow, Jeff said cautiously. He was also concerned for
Maja’s safety, but if the Raymond Corporation fell into chaos lan’s future would be difficult
Moreover, Grandma Edith was back and had personally hosted a welcome party for Eric the previous night,
essentially announcing to the world that her only worthy Successor was Eric
lan wasn’t even present at the welcome party
The living room was silent When lan learned that there was no news of Maja, the light in his eyes faded instantly
He gave a wry smile, his voice hoarse “What’s the point of having the Raymond Corporation without Maja?1
His eyelashes fell his eyes reddening in an instant.
