Female Novel
Chapter 1252
Tyler's disdain for her was even more pronounced now, his irritation peaking merely at the sight of her
face.
Fitch was a tad more lenient, striding over to deliver a blow to the back of Ian's neck.
Ian's hand was clenching Maja's, refusing to let go.
Fitch forcibly pried them apart, giving Maja a deep look before helping Ian to his feet and escorting him
out.
Tyler, before closing the door, even left a parting curse.
"You two, a pair of unfaithful lovers, will get your comeuppance!"novelbin
It was clear he was fuming.
Maja stayed curled up in Patric's arms, only beginning to tremble once the conference room fell silent.
Patric held his tongue, even feeling a momentary urge to applaud.
What a grand love story, but where did that leave him?
A prop in their dramatic confession of love?
He scoffed.
"Maja, are you blind? Didn't you see his face? How pathetic! The golden boy Ian, reduced to begging.
You're truly a menace. You've turned Eric into a shadow of his former self and made Ian willing to give
up everything for you. I wonder how many bottles of whiskey he'll down tonight to numb his pain. But
it's a pity you can't see it. Is your blindness your own karma?"
Maja stayed silent. She thought she would burst into tears, would become hysterical.
But beneath the crushing despair, she only found calm.
However, there was a gaping hole in her chest, silently bleeding.
Her head was throbbing, threatening to knock her out.
She was unaware that this was a side effect of the medication she had been given.
It made her emotionally unstable, increased her self-doubt.
Her thirst for power grew stronger.
Only those who desired power could be controlled.
Patric had wanted to further provoke her. After all, the transfer of ownership had not been successful,
and he was frustrated.
But Maja was as still and lifeless as a doll.
Mocking her had no effect.
She was like a doll without a soul.
Now, any attempt to hurt her was like punching cotton, utterly unsatisfying.
He paced the conference room, trying to cool his temper.
But it was futile. The thought of sitting helplessly as they confessed their feelings to each other, even
feeling her tears soak through his suit...
"Damn it! Damn it! Maja, I really want to kill you! If it weren't for your incessant babbling, I'd be the CEO
of the Raymond Corporation right now!"
"What a great love story, so damn great!"
He repeated the last sentence over and over, kicking over a chair in the conference room in frustration.
The top executives, even though separated by a layer of thick glass, knew exactly how livid he was.
The chair smashed against the wall, splintering into pieces.
They had seen Fitch and Tyler help Ian out, and recognized Maja, the woman in Eric's arms. The love
triangle drama played out in their minds.
It seemed that Ian had lost.
Maja had chosen Eric, considering she was still by his side.
The top-level executives had been forced to watch this soap opera, and now watched as Patric ranted
at Maja.
There were two lawyers in the conference room. The contract hadn't been signed, so they were
technically no longer needed.
But Patric hadn't dismissed them, and they didn't dare leave on their own.
Finally, Patric's gaze landed on them.
"Get out! All of you, get out!"
He couldn't identify his own emotions, only wanting to blow up the building.
He spent a long time in the conference room, feeling as though his chest was about to explode. But
considering Maja's lifeless demeanor, he had to quickly rein in his emotions, considering the crowd of
onlookers outside.
He took a deep breath, scooping Maja up in his arms and promptly leaving the Raymond Corporation.
He planned to take her to his place first.
