Holden had been turning for a while before he suddenly raised his hand to rub his temples.
Forget it, let him figure it out himself if he regrets it in the end, I won’t help him.”
“Should we keep him on his knees?”
“Let him kneel until dawn, then let him go.”
Just as he finished speaking, Holden’s phone rang. It was a call from Maja.
Seeing her call, a smile immediately appeared on Holden’s face.
“Maja”
“Grandpa Holden, I wanted to ask about that piece of land because we’re going to bid for it tomorrow.
But when I researched it, I found that the bidding has been delayed for a year and all the previous big
companies have given up. Is there something wrong with the land?”
Holden’s eyes darted around. He had originally wanted her to come over and discuss it in person, but
when he thought of his good for nothing grandson outside, he immediately gave up on the idea.
“Tve already spoken to your father about that piece of land.”
It took Maja a moment to react as she assumed that her father referred to Neil.
But she quickly understood that this father might be lan’s father. She was married to lan, so naturally,
she would call lan’s father dad.
“That piece of land was indeed planned for commercial and subway development a year ago. It would
have been suitable for residential investment, and there was even a plan for a good elementary school.
The companies that didn’t participate in the bidding didn’t give up because they knew the facts, they
just couldn’t wait After all, the market changes every day. If you plan to use the land to build a factory,
you don’t have to worry about the school and commercial planning. But if it’s for residential
development, you’ll definitely lose money.”
“Grandpa, has the commercial planning for that land changed?”
“Yeah, not just the commercial planning, but the school planning has changed too. The promised
elementary school has been canceled. There are no schools nearby now, so if it’s used to build
houses, they’ll be hard to sell. The location is also remote, and it’s unclear whether the subway
planning will change. Anyway. this news will probably be known by everyone next month. So, the
bidding has suddenly been put on the schedule. If we wait until next month when everyone knows, no
one will want this land.”
Maja seemed to understand the situation and thanked him.
“Grandpa, I got it.”
Holden laughed happily, “I’m glad you came to me for advice. I know sometimes you hesitate to bother
me because you worry about my health. Maja, I’m old, I know my own health. If you have any
problems, you can tell me, even if you want to divorce lan.”
Holden coughed a few times, then sighed.
“That kid is hopeless, I don’t know how many women he has on the side. He doesn’t deserve you. I’ve
come to terms with it. If you’re enduring this because you’re worried about my health, then I’m holding
you back. Remember, I always like you.”
Maja was silent for a while, then lowered her head. After a while, she finally thought of a solution.
“Grandpa, I think you’ve noticed, he doesn’t actually like me.”
How could Holden not see that? The emotion of liking someone can’t be faked.
Whenever Maja was brought up, there was never any change in lan’s eyes.
But when that woman who troubles Lingery was mentioned, there was a sparkle in his eyes.
Holden watched lan grow up, how could he not know what he was thinking?
Before, Holden had arranged for Maja to marry lan because he knew lan didn’t really understand what
love was. Although everyone thought lan liked Carlene, Holden saw clearly lan didn’t have romantic
feeling when he looked at her, there was no tenderness in his eyes.
Tenderness is an important sign of liking someone.
So Holden always thought Maja had a chance. As long as they had enough time together, lan would
eventually like her.
But not anymore, lan is in love with someone else. If Maja is still kept in the Raymond family, it would
really be unfair to her.
Maja is smart and skillful, she shouldn’t be trapped in this small place…
“Maja, can you tell me what you’re really thinking?”
Til stick with this marriage for at most another three months. It’s only fair to give you an explanation. If
after three months, I still don’t like lan, then we’ll part ways peacefully”
This proposal was respectful to both parties.
Holden was silent for ten seconds before he replied, “Alright, I support you.”
Maja breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Holden agreed, she wouldn’t have any problems. novelbin
“Maja, I’m a bit curious, you said before that you and lan were intimate, was that true or were you lying
to me?”
Maja didn’t want to lie to him, so she honestly said, “It was my choice.”
Holden was instantly furious. He thought lan had taken advantage of Maja, he didn’t like her, and was
even messing around with other women.
That bastard!
“Alright, alright, that bastard, I guess I was wrong about him. Men are just naturally bad, they never
change. Three months it is. Even if he regrets it by then, I’ll stand by you!”
