Chapter 806

A flicker of panic flashed in lan’s eyes. He opened his mouth to say something, but no sound came out.

He followed Maja out in silence.

She stopped in her tracks.

From lan’s perspective, he could still see the red love bite near her ear.

That was his doing.

She didn’t look at him but instead dialed Zoey’s number, planning to wait for her to pick her up here.

lan stood there for a moment before saying in a deep voice, “I’ll take you home.”

Maja took a deep breath, then looked up at him.

“Can I take your silence now as an apology? If you really think you did something wrong, you should have Connie

put in jail for the death of my cousin. You, her cousin, not only didn’t do anything after she indirectly caused my

cousin’s death, but you also came to take advantage of me.”

She said all of this with a calm voice.

Anger came from care, but indifference was what lan feared most-

He closed his eyes; a few low sounds came from his throat, and after a long while, he finally managed to say, “I

honestly didn’t know; I’m really sorry.” Maja felt a bit amused, looking at his face in a moment of trance.

But after laughing for a while, she felt extremely sad. “It’s okay; I’ll continue to sue her, even if you’ve already

deleted the surveillance video.”

lan really didn’t know that the beggar was Maja’s cousin, so he was filled with fear.

“lan, you guys disgust me.”

These words were like a sharp sword.

She say his face turn pale instantly, but he quickly regained his composure.

He walked to the side of the car, opened the door, and said firmly, “I’ll take you home.”

Maja frowned, thought for a moment, and then got in the car.

When they arrived at her company, she was about to open the door to get out of the car when lan finally spoke up.

A

“I grew up with my brother. Even though we have completely different personalities, we share a common hobby,

which is painting. My brother is excellent at everything he does, and his painting skills surpass mine. Any of his

works can get Herbert’s approval. I was not content, always following Herbert, even choosing painting as my major.

One day, I was pushed down the stairs; my brother caught me with his hands but was injured because of me,

causing his two fingers to lose, their flexibility, and he never painted again. Everyone blamed me, even thought I did

it on purpose.”

Maja didn’t know what he wanted to say, but this was the first time she had heard him talk so much about his

brother.

“I’m not good at explaining; I joined the army out of anger. My brother was physically weaker than me; he lacked

sunlight and calcium from a young age. It was the only place I could escape from his outstanding aura, and I was

comfortable there. After his death, I felt relieved for a moment; no one was comparing me to him, But when I took

over his position, I was still living in his shadow.”

“lan, what are you trying to say?”

lan lowered his head, silent for a long time before saying, “As someone who has been loved for a long time, I don’t

know how to treat someone well. The only thing I can think of is to satisfy your material needs, buy you a lot of

things, and give you money, but you don’t need these. I’m always doing the wrong things, but you’ve never told me

what’s right.”

“I’ve told you; you just didn’t listen. I hope you can stay away from me.”

lan’s fingers trembled slightly. He took out a cigarette from the side, lit it, and sneakily glanced at her through the

thin smoke.

She was watching the front quietly, and her calmness when she said that was surprising.

She meant it.

“Okay.” He answered with difficulty, then unlocked the car door.

“Maja, then goodbye.”

Almost the moment he agreed, Maja’s face was filled with relief, and she even said one more thing as she got out

of the car.

“Please, I really don’t want to see you again.”

After saying that, she closed the car door without hesitation.

He never thought that the once–gentle woman would say such words.

He sat in the car for half an hour until the cigarette burned to his fingertips. He then threw it away.

Back at the Raymond Corporation, he had someone investigate all the surveillance before Leo’s accident, ask for

clearer copies, compare them one by one, and even find a lip–reading expert to decipher the conversation between

Leo and Connie at the time.

The content of the conversation was plain; He only asked her if she knew Maja; there was no offense or threat to

Connie.

And Connie, just because of this, cut off the man’s leg.

Her hatred for Maja had reached this point.

lan called the hospital, “Send Connie to the mental hospital.”
