Maja bowed her head in respect, then stood up and picked up his suit, handing it back to him.
lan reached out to receive it, his fingertips accidentally brushing against hers–one cold, the other warm.
Suppressing the urge to hold her hand, he lied, “Grandpa mentioned you promised him something”
He didn’t mention his grandfather’s last words at all, but rather tried to trick Maja.
Did his grandfather say anything to her that day at the cliff?
But in reality, his grandfather said nothing that night. It was all a scheme planned by a man named
Patrick
The scheme included his grandfather, everyone who was on the hike that day, and even Maja herself
She wondered about Patrick, even his name was fake. Who was he really and why was he targeting
the Raymond family?
Now that lan was asking her, she remembered her promise to his grandfather to give birth to an heir for
the Raymond family
This was a commitment.
But it was something she couldn’t bring herself to tell lan
She turned around, making to walk towards the base of the mountain.
Tan knew he couldn’t get any more out of her and slowly followed her
Descending the mountain was faster than climbing it. He found himself thinking about the hike, carrying
her on his back, listening to her childhood
stories
lan and Maja had been through life and death together, but they lacked the most tender moments. Any
recollections of such times were barren
He wanted to drive her home, but her bodyguard had already brought the car.
Without even a word of goodbye, she got into the car.
lan opened and closed his mouth, finally knocking on her car window.
The window rolled down.
“How about dinner tonight?”
Maja glanced at her phone, “1 ve got something on today”
“What about tomorrow?”
“have a meeting.”
“All day?”
Smart people would stop asking after hearing about the meeting. It was obviously an excuse.
But lan insisted on pushing the issue, causing the atmosphere to grow tense.
“Maja, dont you want to know Patrick’s real identity?”
This caught Maja’s attention. She indeed wanted to know.
No matter how the people at Rosewood Manor investigated, what Patrick represented was too vague.
He had no background. There was only a photograph of him and his name.
“My people and Fitch’s are looking into it Should be any time now. Do you want me to tell you as soon
as I know?”
This was clearly a trap if she wanted to know, they would have to have dinner together
Maja frowned, “Let’s talk when you find out.”
He held the car window tightly, pretending not to understand, “But I need to have dinner first, so I have
the energy to investigate
What a canny man!
Maja even thought about closing the window, hopefully crushing his fingers.
His fingers seemed casually resting on the window, but he was actually applying a lot of pressure. So
much so that even after Maja pressed the window button, the window didn’t go up
She finally relented, Tan, what are you trying to do?”
“I want to drive you home”
Stalling with him was pointless Maja got out of her car and walked towards his
lan didn’t think she would agree so quickly. He stood there stunned until he heard her ask, ‘Aren’t you
coming?”
His chest fluttered with excitement as he hurried towards his car
But the place Maja wanted to go wasn’t Rosewood Manor, but the high school where she had met
Coral
Today was Saturday, and seniors still had supplementary classes
She told lan to wait in the car while she went in first
Just as she reached the football field, she spotted Barton playing ball. Surrounded by students, they
erupted into cheers whenever Barton scored
