Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 856

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.
