lan was dead sure, Maja wouldn’t lie to him.

If she could really solve this problem, it would be good news for him.

He knew well that woman at home wasn’t going to let go easily.

“Have you designed a house for the Pennyfeathers?”

“You could say that.”

lan’s eyes slightly narrowed, his grip on Maja tightened.

“You…”

Before he could finish his sentence, his phone started ringing. It was a call from Holden.

It was probably about Lingery.

He let go of Maja, grabbed his coat, and prepared to leave.

“I won’t tell Carlene about this.”

The phone kept ringing, as if it would never stop if he didn’t answer.

Maja knew he had something to deal with, so she prepared to leave as well.

“Mr. Raymond, if you have something else to handle, just go.”

However, during the elevator ride down, lan tightly held the back of her head, kissing her passionately as if he was

trying to suck out her soul.

She felt weak, as if he was going off to battle.

The elevator doors opened and closed at the underground parking garage, Maja was left breathless from the

intensity of his kiss.

Because no one came in and no one pressed the button, the elevator eventually stopped in place, the enclosed

space filled with his woody scent

lan let go of Maja, “I’ll have Jeff take you home.”

Maja wanted to ask where he was going, but in the end, it became, “It’s more convenient for me to take a taxi.”

Tan’s phone kept ringing, the time they spent here was the time the phone was ringing, showing how urgent the

caller was.

“Mr. Raymond, you should go first.”

they look

As lan got into the car, he gave her a deep look.

Maja always felt, this look seemed to have a deeper meaning.

lan arrived at the old Raymond family mansion, and before he could enter, a cup was thrown at his chest.

Then came Holden’s angry voice, “Kneel outside!”

lan kneeled down without hesitation.

Next to Holden was Lingery, who was almost beaten to death.

Lingery’s face was swollen like a pig’s head, his body was immobilized, even his mouth couldn’t close properly, still

drooling.

“Grandpa…”

Lingery struggled to start talking. When he saw lan, he instinctively flinched.

Holden, leaning on his cane, slowly walked to the door with a cold face.

“What did your cousin do wrong that you beat him so badly?”

Lingery couldn’t speak a complete sentence at the moment, so he couldn’t explain to Holden that he had been

beaten into this state by lan for messing with Penny. He used all his strength to make his people understand his

meaning and brought him to see Holden.

As soon as Holden saw him, he guessed it was lan’s doing.

In the entire Raymond family, the most ruthless was always lan.

lan kneeled on the ground, still elegant and composed.

“Grandpa, the night I returned to the country, weren’t you curious why I left the banquet early? Lingery drugged

me, and I randomly spent the night with

a

woman.

Holden almost rolled down the stairs upon hearing this.

Lingery, who heard this, struggled desperately.

After struggling for a while, his pupils suddenly shrank.

That night, he did indeed try to drug lan, but lan was too cautious and always on guard against the Raymond family,

so his plan failed.

He intended to find pictures of lan mingling with others after returning to the country and show them to Carlene,

hoping she would give up completely. But because the plan failed, he gave up.

He didn’t expect lan to pin this crime on him now, and he couldn’t even refute it.

He felt as if his whole body was frozen.

But lan kept talking.

“Because of my mistake, I had slept with someone else, and I naturally have to take responsibility. Kingery used this

to threaten me, and thinking about that night, I
