Chapter 1229

Jeff felt sorry for lan. He didn’t dare to say anything more

“Jeff, keep searching Get everyone to search, lan commanded, rising from the couch and grabbing his crumpled

jacket. Im going too.”

Greenfield Gardens was practically deserted lan hade

Exhausted all his resources but to no avail. He couldn’t understand why they couldn’t find her His anxiety began to

build

He climbed into the car alongside Jeff, leaning back and staring silently out the window.

Greenfield Gardens was still a sight to behold but it was empty, like a lifeless dollhouse.

Another fruitless day of searching passed.

In the end, lan didn’t even know where to drive anymore. He had thought he owned Greenfield, that he had the

power to protect Maja But he had always left her in danger

He slumped over the steering wheel at a loss for what to do. He couldn’t even remember how he used to live

without Maja

He felt useless. The love of his life was missing and he was clueless.

His phone rang interrupting his thoughts It was Nydia

“lan, did you get the message i sent?

lan communicated with the underground fight club via email to avoid revealing his identity as “God“. He hadn’t read

the message Nydia sent.

“Maybe later, he mumbled before hanging up. He rested his head on the steering wheel again, seemingly giving up

on life.

Nydia stared at her disconnected phone surprised Something seemed off about lan.

After finding out that Judith was not a Sanders, he should have said more. But he seemed uninterested.

Nydia didn’t dare to pry further and decided to wait for him to reach out.

Two weeks passed.

Dylan’s subsidiary was continuously causing trouble for the Raymond Corporation and Eric was handling it all. lan

was nowhere to be found.

Enc quickly became the center of attention. He was not only attending various business negotiations but also

hanging out at local bars and clubs

His frequent appearances contrasted with lan’s disappearance

People started to whisper

Has fan really given up on the Raymond Corporation?]

It doesn’t seem like him.]

[Maybe he’s been hit hard by Maja’s disappearance. Who would have thought he’d become such a hopeless

romantic? It’s unheard of for someone to give up a multi–billion dollar company for a woman]

Especially a hopeless romantic like fan, who would give up his company worth billions for a woman. It was

unprecedented

All eyes turned to Eric

At the last chanty gala, he seemed to have a close relationship with Maja. Now that Maja was missing, he was

constantly in the public eye. It seemed he was not really interested in Maja and his actions were just to compete

with lan

Patric sat amongst this crowd. There was a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were cold

In his mind, Eric’s voice kept asking “Did you find Maja yet?”

Over and over incessantly

Patric thought, “Maja Maja! Always Maja! Couldn’t the Raymond men be a bit more dignified and not fall apart over

a woman?”

He took a deep breath, ignoring the voice in his head.

After a while. Enc’s voice softly echoed in his mind again, “Can you go check on lan?*

This time, Patric scoffed

The woman sitting next to him was startled by his sudden change in demeanor The once gentle man now displayed

a face of mockery

Think

Ling

(she had done something wrong, she quickly excused herself

Patric couldn’t stay any longer, afraid he might lose control because of Enc.

He left the booth and went to the restroom, punching the minor in frustration

“Enc, shut up! Hes your brother, not mine! I want lan dead I want you both to disappear! The Raymond family will

be mine and mine alone.”
