She was somewhat startled, her concern for Maja escalating
“lan, you haven’t so much as checked up on her in the three years you’ve been abroad, and yet shestill dates on Holden, treating him like her very own grandfather. She couldn’t possibly harm him. If youcan’t even trust her in this, then what kind of affection do you claim to harbor? Maja hardly evermentioned your affairs to me. When you two were first getting involved, I always advised her not to falltoo deeply for you, considering the other women in your life. She assured me she wouldn’t allow herselfto fall into that trap. But the few times we met subsequently, there was a certain sparkle in her eyeswhenever your name was brought up, despite your numerous attempts to screw things up”
Carol could hardly hold back her tears at the mere thought of Maja being in trouble
“Everything that’s happened, every incident combined, has been your doing How can you just decide togive up? Or is it that meris affections are so fickle, easily forgotten over a few drinks? If that’s the case,then don’t bother pretending anymore I’ll search for her myself. I’ll use the Miller family’s
resources
Carol was livid. She rose to leave but was stopped by Ryan.
“Ms. Miller, that is a complicated matter”
Ryan repeated the events of that day, emphasizing the part where Maja had thrown a venomous snakeat lan.
Carol was taken aback, her worry intensifying.
“Maja loves you. She wouldn’t want to hurt you. She must have been coerced Shouldn’t the prioritynow be to find her? lan, have you lost faith in yourself? Can’t you feel her affection when she looks atyou when she talks to you?”
Love was like warming oneself by a fireplace. If the love existed, one would surely feel it. It’s notsomething outsiders can comprehend
Whether one felt it or not, the person by the fireplace would know best
lan remained silent, sinking into the couch. His attitude infuriated Carol.
Forget it had no expectations of you anyway. Maja should never have been with you.”
He scoffed, his eyes welling up
“Ms. Carol, you’ve known her for years, but I’ve only known her for a short while. She used mybrother’s birthday as a password and kept his belongings My brother was her first love. Her collegedrafts were filled with verses related to my brother’s name. They were deeply involved, but my brotherdied sh years ago. You say Maja married into the Raymond family because I resembled my brother. Orwas it for some other reason?”
Carol was stunned. She had no idea about any of this.
She’d known Maja had someone hidden deep in her heart but never knew who
Now, as lan revealed that person to be his own brother, it seemed the most plausible explanation.Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so indifferent to Majas
situation
Ryan, who’d been listening in silence, was equally taken aback
“Even if that’s the case, didn’t your brother pass away?”
“He returned to life, and Maja chose to go with him. Now they’re happily together isn’t that great?”
His words were laced with sarcasm as he rose to head upstairs.
“So why should I interfere? Besides, she’s not only slept with me”
“lan! You need evidence before making such accusations! Maja is a very conservative woman. Shewas too shy to even mention that shed spent a night with you
“She admitted it herself”
lans expression was one of impatience as he glanced at Ryan
“Get her out of here Don’t bring anyone else in the future”
Ryan quickly stepped forward grabbing Carols arm
“Ms Miller, let’s go if Maja willingly went with my cousin then our search would be pointless Given hiscurrent circumstances, he needs, to
Carol’s mind was blank until the living room door closed forcefully behind her. She then shrugged offRyan’s hand
it was impossible Maja wasn’t the kind of woman to elope
The Star Movie Group still needed her She had too many responsibilities to disappear simply
From lans perspective, however, he wasn’t wrong
Feeling a headache coming on Carol returned to the Miller family home She had to use the Miller familya resources to find Maja. Only when she asked Majā personally would she find peace
