Chapter 995
Maja closed her eyes, wondering how long she could last before giving up Cornelia’s whereabouts.
By the time the sand was up to her chest, her breathing was strained, and she felt uncomfortably squeezed.
Omar stood casually at the edge of the pit and gave her another chance, saying,
“Whenever you’re ready to talk, you can come out.”
No sooner had he finished his words than he received a sturdy kick in the back.
Omar nearly fell headlong into the pit; it had been a long time since anyone had dared to challenge him like that.
He turned around to see lan’s gaze, cold and piercing.
lan walked over, throwing a punch without a word.
“Damn you!”
Omar covered his eyes and cursed, his chest almost exploding with anger, he retaliated.
lan’s clenched fist was trembling, his eyes filled with dark rage, his voice turned incredibly hoarse, as he yelled,
“Maja! Are you okay?”
The pit Maja was being buried in was over six feet high, so she couldn’t see what was happening above, but she
easily recognized lan’s voice as she assured him, “I’m fine!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter saying that, she felt a bit of tightness in her chest.
From above, the sound of fists hitting flesh and Omar’s cursing could be heard clearly.
The bodyguards standing around didn’t dare to intervene. Who didn’t know lan?
Both men were notorious, crossing either could mean not seeing tomorrow’s sunrise!
Omar was kicked down the slope, tumbling several times.
lan was superior in combat skills and was punching like a man possessed, Omar was at a disadvantage.
After being punched several times in the face, Omar spat out a tooth.
The two fought for half an hour though it was a one–sided fight before Fitch and Tyler managed to intervene.
Fitch held back lan, and Tyler held Omar.
Even though they were separated, their eyes were still spitting fire, glaring at each other with intense hatred,
wishing they could kill each other on the spot! lan broke away from Fitch’s grip and rushed towards the pit.
Arriving at the edge he saw Maja was looking up at him.
Immediately, lan saw the distinct slap mark on her cheek. Although her face wasn’t swollen, it was glaring enough.
“Damn!”
He cursed and turned around to deliver a flying kick to Omar’s stomach.
Omar’s face twisted in pain, he struggled to break free from Tyler to retaliate, but Fitch was also holding him back.
He couldn’t break free from both, so he just glared at lan, his eyes red with rage.
“Damn you, bastard lan! I’ll kill you, just you wait!”
Omar was fearless, even if the Casson family was ruined by lan, he would take a piece of the Raymond family with
him.
So, most people didn’t want to provoke that lunatic, it was just pointless to do so and could lead to a violent
retaliation.
lan punched him in the face again.
“Keep talking, and I’ll kill you right now!”
Omar spat out another tooth as lan was punching him without holding back.
Fitch quickly intervened.
“lan, don’t go overboard, we all work in the same circles, we’ll have to face each other again.”
lan ignored him and went back to Maja’s side.
He knelt at the edge of the pit, ignoring his usual cleanliness, his expensive suit was stained with water and mud.
“Give me your hand.”
His voice was calm, but his hair dripping with sweat from the fight which was falling on Maja’s face.
Maja blinked subconsciously, extending her hand..
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlan grabbed her hand and pulled her up.
When Maja was pulled up, she was soaked. She sat down to catch her breath, seeing Omar still restrained by two
men not far away.
Even so, Omar’s gaze was still ferocious.
Maja, after being tormented for so long, was exhausted and didn’t have enough strength to even stand up straight.
She tried to stand up, but fell back down halfway, almost falling back into the pit.
lan quickly pulled her to his side, holding her waist.
Only then did she have a clear look at his face.
There were traces of injury on his cheeks, not severe, his suit was crumpled, it was obvious that he had been in a
fight.
Maja remembered that he and Judith were together at that point, and quickly tried to distance herself from him.
But the sudden movement strained the wound on her shoulder, causing her to bend over in pain.
lan immediately squatted down with her, eventually kneeling down, holding her shoulder as he asked her with
concern in his voice,
“Where does it hurt?”
She pointed to her shoulder.
lan pulled her clothes aside to see a large bruise on her shoulder.
