Maja silently stared at the drink in front of her while Beck gently patted her head.
“My big bro is a bit of a cold fish, usually either grilling me or spoiling our little sister. Even if lan flops,
he’s got enough savvy to bounce back with a new company in no time. Even if he’s no longer the big
cheese of the company, Wall Street and Silicon Valley companies would kill to have him. He’s still a
whiz kid, the new hotshot in the business world. He won’t just tumble off that pedestal. His adoration in
the North American media isn’t because he’s one of the Raymonds. It’s because he’s lan, plain and
simple.”
Maja kept mum, and Beck figured she might not quite get his drift.
“Remember that underground fight club I mentioned, where anything goes and can be traded? It’s the
most notorious black market in North America. It’s actually lan’s turf. The Sanders tried to take over
that hood back in the day but fell flat on their face. Several other high–flying families were also battered
and bruised in their scramble for that piece of the pie. When everyone was down a and out, lan
swooped in and snatched it. That’s why my big bro warned me not to cross swords with him, and
maybe we don’t really get the full picture of lan. You and him live in different worlds.”
He pulled out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat off Maja’s cheeks.
She just got out of the hospital and looked weak as a kitten, plus rushing over here, beads of sweat
were dotting her nose.
“So, you should just focus on running your own business, don’t worry about lan. Just make sure you’re
living high on the hog.”
Maja didn’t even know how she got out of the bar. Once in the car, her phone rang, and the sky outside
had already turned dark.
She picked up the call, and a childish voice came from the other end.
“Is this Maja?”
Maja glanced at the phone, and the display showed Mr. Raymond.
It was lan’s number.
“Yes, what’s up?”
“I just wanted to warn you to steer clear of lan. I’ll let the Alma thing slide, but if I really lose my cool,
you’re going to be in deep water. No one will come to your rescue. I’m not messing with you right now
because I’m being a soft touch, and I didn’t want to waste my energy on you.”
Maja found this amusing, and she leaned back in her seat.
“You called him ‘lan‘, does he know?”
“Of course, he knew, we had dinner together tonight. He even bought me flowers. Is there something
wrong with me calling him that? We were planning on getting hitched anyway. I’ve already told my
mom. She even invited him to have dinner with us the day after tomorrow, so he can’t go back to his
country for now.”
Even though the girl was around the same age as Maja, her voice sounded very tender, and her
character was naive because of being spoiled.
Maja kept quiet, and she was kind of envious of this girl. Whatever she wanted, her family would move
heaven and earth to get it for her.
She might just get a tiny cut on her finger, and the most famous private doctor would be there to treat
her.
And Maja? She worked her fingers to the bone to get where she was today, almost kicking the bucket
in the process.
“lan is here to see me, so I got to hang up. You better play your cards right. My brother is in
Washington; don’t push me to sick him on you. The wise should know when to stop, right? Maja, I’m
only saying this once, if you stir up any more trouble, I won’t be so kind. lan is my friend. I’ve known
him for years.”
The call was cut off, and the girl put her phone back.
lan was in a confidential meeting, and no one was allowed to bring a communication device.
Everyone’s phones were left in this room.
When he came in, he saw a girl in the room, the one that’s been tailing him lately.
He knew she was the little girl from the Sanders family, a bit of a celeb in North America, even getting
along with the royal family members,
lan picked up his phone, exchanged a few words with the high–ranking leaders next to him, and then
decided to head back to the hotel.
The girl followed.
“lan, my mom wanted to meet you. Are you free the day after tomorrow?”
The other high–ranking leaders were still in the previous room. Ian walked alone into the elevator, and
the girl followed.
When the elevator door closed and reached the first floor, the girl was still trailing behind him, her face
always so naive, as if she was oblivious to everything. lan stopped, turned around, gave her a wry
smile, his eyes suddenly turning icy, and uttered one sentence.
“Back off.”
