Chapter 1274
The break of dawn at 6 a.m., Maja found herself jolted awake by a wave of pleasure.
It was a feeling she remembered quite well.
Her cheeks blush, she reached out to wrap her arms around Ian's neck.
But he kissed her lips, winding her legs tightly around his waist.
The bed was heavy, but even so, it creaked under his movements.
Maja was worried about making noise, so she either kissed him or bit his arm muscles.
"Maja."
He called her name satiated, sweat droplets falling heavily onto her neck.
Maja was unable to call his name in response, only tightening her hold on his neck.
Ian was worried about her health. Knowing she had lost a lot of weight recently, he didn't dare to be too
rough. It ended within an hour.
He carried her to the bathroom to shower, then back out, tucking her back into the bed.
"You sleep a little more, I have to go."
Maja held onto his hand, writing words on his palm with her fingertips, leaving behind a ticklish
sensation.
She was asking him.
"When do you plan on leaving this mansion?"
Ian left a kiss on her lips.
"Not too long, I want to know what Eric's ultimate goal is, staying here may facilitate my investigation."
Maja nodded, her lips suddenly kissed again.
When she went limp from the kiss, Ian finally released her.
"I'll come to keep you company every night. Don't be afraid. Eat well."
Maja's eyes reddened and she nodded slowly.
Ian left swiftly. As soon as he left, the two bodyguards woke up yawning, quickly pulling themselves
together to guard the door.
7 a.m.
Patric woke up, he first came to this room to check on Maja, finding her still sound asleep.
It was strange. She didn't like to sleep in the bed these couple of days. After all, someone died on this
bed, so she had always been curled up on the couch by the window. It was unexpected that she slept
on the bed last night.
The blanket was up to her shoulders, her neck was snow white, but her cheeks were very rosy.
Ian didn't purposely leave any marks last night, worried that Patric would notice anything and make
Maja uncomfortable.
Patric took a quick glance at her, then left.
He was oblivious to everything that had happened in this room.
After he left, Maja slowly opened her eyes.
She could hear Patric's footsteps. When Patric came in, she purposely closed her eyes.
Now, she touched her neck, feeling her cheeks burning.
She was thinking of what happened with Ian this morning.
But she didn't dare to think in detail. After all, it was too crazy under Patric's watch.
After Patric left, he went downstairs.
The Morris family had been calling him, hoping that he would quickly find out Ian's recent whereabouts,
but he had already sent someone to Greenfield Gardens last night and found that Ian was indeed not
there.
Not at the Raymond Corporation, not at Greenfield Gardens, nor at Rosewood Manor, where could henovelbin
be?
Even after thinking hard, he couldn't figure out that Ian would hide right under his nose.
At noon, he received a call from Dylan.
Dylan had just landed in North America and quickly sent someone to find Judith, and wanted to inform
Augus, but Augus had gone to a church in a small country to pray with friends and was not taking any
calls.
Dylan couldn't find Judith, had no choice but to call Ian.
Ian didn't answer, so he could only call Patric.
His tone was harsh, and his eyes were red with anger.
"Eric, I must call Ian. No matter what you demand, I agree. I need to find Judith."
Otherwise, would there be any chance of survival if Judith was taken away by that gorilla boxing king?
He originally wanted to use the Sanders family to intercept Ian's business in North America, but the
underground fighting ring was a no man's land, where Ian was god, and no one's words mattered, let
alone the business of the underground fighting ring didn't intersect with the Sanders family, Dylan had
no way to start.
Patric was somewhat taken aback when he heard that Ian had sent Judith to the fighting ring and used
her as a bet.
This was Ian completely offending the Sanders family, was it because Judith made Maja blind?
He didn't know what to say for a moment, only replied: "I'm also looking for Ian, recently he doesn't see
anyone except for acquiring companies."
Dylan became more uneasy, his eyes growing colder.
"Give the phone to Maja, I have something to say to her."
Patric went to Maja's room and placed the phone in her hand.
Hearing Dylan's voice from the other side, Maja instinctively resisted.
"Maja, get Ian to come out and meet me and let him tell me where Judith is. Then I'll give you the
antidote to your throat immediately."
Maja's face showed no expression, and she simply threw the phone away.
Patric raised an eyebrow, picked up the phone from the floor, and suddenly chuckled.
"Mr. Sanders, you're the one who poisoned her mute. Now she can't see or speak. How is she
supposed to reply to you?"
