After he had left, Maja wanted to pull the IV needle from her hand and head into the bathroom to brush
her teeth, and her mouth tasted like metallic blood.
But just then, Maria came in, a hint of rebuke in her voice as she carried a bowl of freshly made soup.
“Ms. Pennyfeather, how could you knowingly neglect your stomach condition and not eat for two days?
The doctor warned me that you need to take care of yourself. You must not forget to eat three meals a
day, nor neglect it just because of work!”
Maja took the warm water Maria handed her to rinse her mouth, then looked at the delicious food on
the small table, but she had no appetite.
“Ms. Pennyfeather, you must eat something. If your stomach condition acts up, you will feel much
worse. You’ve already lost weight.”
Maja never experienced much family affection, but she knew Maria always treated her like a
granddaughter.
Hearing her nagging now, she felt a sour pain in her heart and full of grievances she didn’t know who to
share with.
She thought she had a beautiful promise and met a wonderful person whom she had been striving for,
believing in.
But Patric had ruined it all. Just when she was about to find happiness, he personally pushed her into
the abyss.
Maria sighed and placed the spoon in her palm.
“No matter what you’ve been through, you must eat. Coco was meowing downstairs–earlier, probably
knowing you were not feeling well. Ah, if Mr. Raymond were here, that would be great. He may have a
rough temper, but I think you actually like him.
Maja’s tears stopped abruptly. She hadn’t figured out how to explain this to lan.
They liked each other, but the fatal weakness between them was their lack of trust.
lan was moody and possessive of her. Even a meeting with a collaborator could make him jealous.
What if he found out about this!
Maja dared not think about it, her head aching, unsure if he would insult her..
She quietly ate her food, remembering the phone call he made..
Because she remained silent, he hung up and hadn’t called since.
She quickly finished eating, then picked up her phone, sending him a message.
Her throat hurt, and she couldn’t speak, so she had to text.
[I have been eating well, and I never said it was just for fun.]
She was answering the question lan had asked her on the phone.
lan was in a meeting with several members of the Haskins family. These were people brought by Fitch.
Ever since he called Maja, his complexion had been off. Now they had found the signal released by
Holden, but it disappeared quickly.
He sat quietly in his chair, fingers tapping on his phone occasionally.
Fitch was talking to his people, and then he looked at lan.
“lan, what do you think?”
Fitch didn’t know about lan’s power in North America. The place where the signal was released had
been thoroughly searched, but they found nothing.
lan even thought that the signal might not have been left by Holden but deliberately left by the
kidnappers to lure him out of Greenfield.
But what were these people’s goals?
Was it the chip that Eric had sent out earlier?
But what did this chip have to do with luring him out of Greenfield?
lan couldn’t figure out the connection between the two, and he worried that his grandfather indeed left
the signal.
“lan?”
Fitch called out to him when he saw lan spacing out.
lan looked up, and at that moment, he received Maja’s text message.
Just seeing the name light up on the screen, his eyes brightened, and the corners of his mouth lifted.
“lan, what are your thoughts on this matter?”
I’m not sure. It’s hard to determine whether the signal was left by Holden or by the kidnappers. It’s also
hard to ascertain their motives. Don’t forget, my brother might be among these kidnappers, and no one
can fathom his thinking.”
Precisely because Eric might be on the opposite side, the Haskins family members were more
conservative in their investigation.
Fitch had been reprimanded last time and was not allowed to continue investigating Eric’s matters.
After all, the human experiment was too much to handle, involving several countries. It wasn’t just a
family feud but could lead to war between nations.
That’s why Fitch had to come up with various excuses to go abroad this time.
Ian leaned back after finishing his sentence.
Fitch was quiet for a few minutes before he asked.
“Éric really is on the other side, then Grandpa Holden will be in danger. He’s your brother. Would you
take action against him?” Hearing this, the smile on lan’s face slowly faded.
