Chapter 961

With eyes squinted, an aura of calm sophistication emanated from lan as he surveyed the room.

“Dennis, did getting kicked by me the last time scramble your brains? How else would you think you could pull the strings on me today?”

At his words, Dennis‘ face instantly soured. He had once deeply humiliated Maja, only to be knocked out cold by lan. And at that moment, that incident was brought

up again just to humiliate him. Unable to admit the reason he’d been kicked, Dennis could only suffer in silence.

lan pushed open the door to the boardroom, Jeff faithfully following behind. While he didn’t really know what strategy lan had in mind, he had complete trust in him that he would figure something out in a short while.

As they approached, he heard lan murmur in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

“If they take me in for questioning, make sure Maja knows.”

Jeff looked up in surprise. Inform Ms. Pennyfeather? But this was a matter within the Raymond family. What could Ms. Pennyfeather even do other than worry about his safety?

A realization struck him, and Jeff quickly understood. That would be a test for her to see if she truly cared about him in times of trouble. Perhaps, the CEO wanted to see Ms. Pennyfeather’s concern.

At that moment, the CEO was not clear about Ms. Pennyfeather’s feelings, not knowing if she truly cared about him or not..

So why not test it? Let her know about his predicament within the Raymond family. Would she choose to help, or quickly distance herself from him?

If Maja chose the former, showing–concern for lan’s situation at that critical moment and even attempting to help him, wouldn’t that be the expression of her love towards him?

And if she chose to distance herself, then perhaps lan would take a different approach. If he couldn’t win her heart, then he would ensure that she lost her freedom, binding her to him.
