Chapter 928

Maja walked back into lan’s room, slowly closing the door behind her, her palms sweating with anxiety

She made her way to his bedside again.

lan, with a furrowed brow, was about to voice his refusal to take his medicine when he was overshadowed.

Opening his eyes, he felt a warmth fall onto his lips as her tongue pried open his clenched teeth, slipping the pill in.

Too shocked to resist, by the time he came back to his senses, the pill had already slid down his throat.

“Cough, cough, cough.”

Coughing ensued, and Maja quickly brought over a glass of warm water, patting his back.

“Have some water.”

lan’s lips were somewhat chapped, but he was reluctant to drink.

Maja attempted again, taking a sip herself first and then holding it to his mouth.

But this time, lan wasn’t having it. He turned his head and coldly asked, “What are you doing?”

The water didn’t make it in, just moistening his lips.

Regardless, his complexion looked much better.

“Get lost!”

His apparent anger caused him to cough a few more times.

He had completely forgotten that just before going to sleep the previous night, he had intended to apologize to

Maja.

But each time Maja approached him voluntarily, he would become cold, just like now.

Maja sat on the edge of the bed without moving, tidying up his blanket.

lan didn’t resist or kick away the blanket, he had spent the whole night with a fever and had no energy left.

“Humph.” He scoffed, closing his eyes.

Thinking about how she had treated Coco’s previous owner the same way, it hurt him!

Coco had always been by her side, so, in a way, Coco’s previous owner had never really left her life.

Even during their marriage, Coco lived at Rosewood Manor.

What was this?

Anger surged up the more he thought about it.

He wasn’t worth it for this kind of woman.

Maja didn’t know what he was thinking. She just saw him with his eyes closed, thinking he didn’t want to see her, so

she spoke, “You rest first, and we’ll talk when your fever has gone down.”

With that, she got up and prepared to leave.

lan heard her voice, opening his eyes.

She was leaving already?

His brow furrowed, wanting to say something to make her stay but unable to voice it.

It wasn’t until she reached the door that he spoke.

“I’m hungry.”

“I’ll have the cook make you something; what do you want to eat?”

“Whatever.”

With that, he closed his eyes again.

When Maja left, Jeff was still anxiously waiting outside.

“Maja, did the boss take his medicine?”

“Yeah, he said he’s hungry.”

Jeff’s eyes lit up, he sure knew what the boss needed!

“Alright, I’ll have the cook get on it right away.”

As he headed downstairs, he thought to himself, so the boss liked this feeding method too.

The kitchen staff was quick to respond and, in no time, had prepared several nutritious dishes.

Maja thought the servants would take it in themselves, but once the food was placed on the tray, everyone was

looking at her.

One of the servants said, “I don’t dare go in; I’m afraid Mr. Raymond will get angry”

lan was truly terrifying when angry, and only Maja seemed to be able to calm him down.

Without saying much, Maja took the tray and went into the room.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw lan trying hard to get up.

She immediately put down the tray and helped him up.

“What happened?”

1 need to go to the bathroom.”

His voice was even more hoarse than yesterday, and the effort to get up made him break out in a cold sweat.

Seeing him like this, Maja felt a momentary moistness in her eyes.

Such an odd sensation.

She helped him to the bathroom, not waiting for him to speak this time, and took the initiative to unzip his pants.

This time, it was lan who seemed embarrassed.

“Turn around.”

“Why?”

Maja was a bit puzzled, hadn’t she helped him bathe before? He was quite open about it then.

If I say turn around, you turn around. No more unnecessary talk!”

His voice was too raspy, his words lacked the usual authority and instead seemed somewhat petulant.
