Chapter 1295
Maja was already delirious from pain, but she heard the words lan muttered crystal clear
What has he understood?
She wanted to grip his sleeve tighter, but he was just holding her close
Maja felt as if she was submerged in water, her body soaked through
lan turned to the two men standing nearby
“Don’t you have any painkillers? Aren’t they working?”
Phelps scanned Maja’s face before replying. “I do have a painkiller, but it will only relieve her pain for three days.
After that, the pain will return twice as hard”
Patric shot him a surprised glance it wasn’t every day that someone from a research base had painkillers on hand
“Use it I can’t bear to see her in pain anymore”
lan’s voice was hoarse, his eyes wide as Phelps pulled out a syringe.
With a surge of strength from nowhere, Maja grabbed his wrist
“Tan, I won’t use it I know what you’re planning but I don’t want to go I want to stay with you”
These words had drained all her energy, but she didn’t know how pale her face was.

How could lan bear to see the woman he loved like this?
“Maja, let me give you the painkiller”
“I don’t want it ”
But before she could finish her sentence, she almost passed out.
Phelps paused, turning to lan again
“Are you sure you want to do this? Are you planning on sending her away on the third day when the painkiller wears
off?”
lan nodded with difficulty He had no other choice
Maja had once told him about Mr. K. Whoever he was, at least he would spare Maja’s life. She had also mentioned
something about a leader. Now, she was being punished
for disobedience
lan’s hand clenched into a fist He thought becoming the CEO of the Raymond Corporation, partnering with Bernard,
and taking over the underground combat pit would enable him to protect the one he thought was the most

But it seemed he was still too weak.
With a tissue in his hand, he gently wiped Maja’s forehead, palms, and neck
Phelps injected the painkiller, reminding. “Once you’ve decided, remember the precise time when the drug wears
off if the pain hits her again, she might lose her sanity ”
lan’s eyes reddened as he held her hand tightly
“I understand”
He wasn’t sure who he was responding to, just mumbling these words unconsciously.
Phelps stood up, slowly packing his medical kit.
“lan, I have a surgery tonight. I’ll leave first. I don’t have more of this drug I got it from someone abroad and
haven’t used it until now it’s surprising how handy it.
“I understand, Phelps Thank you”
Phelps gave a nod his white coat making him seem detached
He stood up, glanced at Patric, and left
Patric watched his retreating figure, trying to remember where he had met him before
Bernard’s men who had been waiting outside walked in, heading straight to Patric’s side

Damn it!
He was so angry he wanted to kill someone, but he couldn’t beat lan, nor could he kill Esic It was frustrating)
lan’s gaze remained locked on Maja
The furrow in her brow had gradually smoothed out, and her face softened, showing that the painkiller was working
lan exhaled a sigh of relief, lifting her and carrying her to the bathroom upstairs He then gently placed her in a
bathtub filled with warm water
She had broken into a sweat earlier.
