His phone had been buzzing non-stop until the battery finally gave out. Clearly, he had forgotten about the thing he had promised to Dylan, just sitting there in the lounge closest to the top floor. Ian pushed open the door, and the grin on his face was almost blinding. After all, Beck had been mulling over how to break the news about his identity to Maja, but seeing Ian’s smile, he just knew—Maja must have agreed to keep the baby. “No way!” Beck slammed his hand on the table in protest, “She’s barely 25, for heaven’s sake. Why should she suffer through childbirth for you, Ian? You’re really pushing your luck here. You haven’t offered any gifts, there’s been no wedding, and you even kicked her out once. Now, you two aren’t even legally bound, and you’re still on the run from the law. And you expect her to have your child? That’s just irresponsible.” Ian slowly took a seat, “Then go upstairs and tell Maja that. Tell her she’s the long-lost daughter of the Sanders family. See if she’ll acknowledge that.” With these words, Beck was left speechless. His limbs felt cold, his mouth agape, and it took a moment before he finally managed to say something. “What my brother did was wrong, but Dad has been looking for her all along. He even said he’d give her all the Sanders shares. I hope she’ll meet with my dad.” He said it with little conviction, knowing full well Maja probably despised the Sanders name.

Beck’s eyelashes fluttered, his hand trembling slightly. “Dad’s in a coma. Once all of the Sanders shares are transferred to Maja, she’ll be in charge. If she doesn’t want the responsibility, I’ll take it on for her. I’ll ensure she gets a satisfactory outcome. Ian, you know my dad has been searching for her. He thought she was dead, aged overnight, and now he’s

savoring her scent. “How about you come with me to meet Mr. Sanders tomorrow? I need to discuss something with him.” Maja was worried he might start a conflict with the Sanders family for her sake, her hands cradling his face. “You’re not planning to confront Dylan at the Sanders estate, are you? That would be foolish. No matter what Dylan does, he’s still Mr. Sanders’ son, and Mr. Sanders won’t take our side. Besides, we’d be on their turf, and if anything happened, we’d have nowhere to run.” Ian chuckled and held her even closer. “Trust me, I won’t let anything happen to you or our child.” At the mention of the word ‘child’, Maja felt a softness in her bones. “Ian, do you think it’s a boy or
