Ian glanced at her, his eyes downcast, “Guess I’ll head home then.”

“Yeah.”

Maja, umbrella in hand, returned to the living room only to find Rocky had left a trail of wet paw prints across the floor from the rain.

She frowned, “Go sit in the corner.”

Off to the side was a large hair dryer specially for pets. Seeing it being switched on, Rocky quickly scurried over.

Unable to sleep, Maja stood by the window of the first floor, watching as Ian walked away. His silhouette looked lonely.

She showed no sympathy. His temper needed to be curbed, and if he didn’t change, there was no need for them to be together.

As Ian left the Rosewood Manor, his car was already waiting, driven by Jeff.

Once inside, Jeff handed him a clean towel.

“Mr. Raymond.”

Ian casually wiped his hair a few times before looking out at the pouring rain.

After the car stopped at Greenfield Gardens, he made a call to Dylan Sanders.

“I disagree with the engagement to the Sanders family. I won’t see Judith anymore. And tell your sister to keep her friend, Wind, in check. If he messes with Maja, I won’t be kind.”

Dylan, a man of routine, was already fast asleep when he received Ian’s call. The sudden news left him cold.

“Ian, are you messing with us?”
