Chapter 1016
After causing a stir around lan and Judith, Alma began spreading rumors about Maja.
[She was dumped by lan because she’s promiscuous and loose. Who knows how many men she’sbeen with.]
[She even got caught visiting the gynecologist when she was married to lan.]
[Holden doesn’t even stand by her anymore. I heard she’s mingled with another man for the past fewdays. She’s fallen from grace because lan dumped her.]
Alma’s original plan was to ruin Maja by drugging her, but that failed.
So, she resorted to the most straightforward method, spreading rumors.
After all, people didn’t really care about the truth, and they just wanted to hear juicy gossip.
So not only was the news about lan and Judith being together flying around but also Maja’s allegedpromiscuous lifestyle was the talk of the town. The gossip spread from one group to another, eventuallyreaching the one Ryan was in.
Ryan, upon seeing these women freely defaming Maja, lost his cool.

[Who the hell is spreading those baseless rumors?! Maja will be my future sister–in–law. If my cousinsees that, the rumor spreaders will regret it!] The recent internal feud within the Raymond family wasknown to everyone. No one was sure about lan’s stance towards his cousin, so some people were lessrespectful towards Ryan.
[Judith herself acknowledged it on Facebook. She was with lan that night.]
[BS! How can this woman be so shameless!]
While fuming at the messages, Ryan continued venting his anger in the group chat.
[It serves hér right that my cousin doesn’t fancy her. All she knows is to play dirty tricks, and now she’strying to tarnish Maja’s reputation. It was clearly Maja who was with my cousin that night. My cousinhas only ever liked Maja, and Maja has confessed her feelings. They are together now. If I hear anyonetalking nonsense again, I’ll screenshot it and show it to my cousin!]
The final sentence held a strong deterrent effect. Everyone knew that lan had a bad temper; if hedecided to settle the score, those who spread rumors would pay the price.
Remembering how he dealt with Dennis, everyone stopped talking.
Ryan took a deep breath and immediately called lan.
But lan was on a plane and didn’t answer.
So, he quickly called Maja.
“Penny, when my cousin gets back, have him post something on Facebook, preferably mentioning yourname specifically, to avoid being claimed by some other woman!”
Maja was unaware of the situation with Judith. Hearing him explain it in detail, she found it quiteabsurd.
After venting for a while, Ryan suddenly laughed. “But Judith’s tactics are so low–grade, she won’t be athreat to you in the future.”novelbin
Maja looked at her reflection on the black computer screen, still worrying about the marks on her body.
After hanging up the phone with Ryan, she went to the bathroom mirror and pulled open her collar totake another look.
It was too obvious. Unless lan were blind, he wouldn’t miss the marks left by someone else.
Feeling stifled, she lacked the focus to work.
What she didn’t expect was that Alma received an anonymous message.
[Maja has indeed been with a man these past few days, her first love. They spent two nights in a hotelwhile lan has been abroad.]
When Alma saw the message, her eyes lit up. She immediately called back, hoping to get moreinformation.
But the number was already disconnected.
She sneered and immediately spread the news that Maja had spent two nights in a hotel with her firstlove while lan was abroad.
Like the previous rumors, it became a topic of great interest.
Alma even went to the hotel to verify that Maja had stayed there for two nights, which excited her evenmore.
Because the hotel was owned by the Casson family. With Omar still in a coma, Alma was the onlyperson from the Casson family who held any authority.
She immediately pulled up Maja’s hotel records and posted them in the group chat.
“I told you she was a loose woman. She indeed spent two nights in the hotel with her first love. Iwonder how lan will react when he finds out.”
The evidence Alma provided was too substantial, and her confidence too convincing. Even those whohad initially doubted started to believe.
Tyler, upon seeing the hotel records, personally called the hotel to verify, and the records turned out tobe true.
He had initially thought Alma was slandering Maja.
Now that the record was true, why did Maja go all the way to that hotel during the two days lan wasabroad?
She hadn’t even left the hotel during that time, even neglecting her work.
Tyler squinted his eyes.
The following morning, lan’s plane touched down in Greenfield.
