With the arrival of Ian, the atmosphere at the scene became less suffocating for Maja.
She wasn't a saint. When she found out she was not Lillian's biological daughter, it was almost unbearable.
After countless nights of breaking down, she had to repeatedly chew on the kindness Lillian had shown her in order to survive.
So she didn't want to find her biological parents. She was also afraid that she was really abandoned.
The word "family" can be more painful than a knife stabbed by an enemy.
Deep down, Maja had a sense of self-loathing. When she found out her parents were such despicable people, she hated the blood that ran through her veins.
Now that Ian had appeared, it was like a surge of strength poured into her heart.
She chuckled, "What do I owe you? You asked for a million dollars, right? Fine, I'll give you a million dollars to sever this blood relationship completely. Don't come looking for me again."
Before attending the party tonight, Clara and Drew thought a million was the most significant number in the world.
However, after being enlightened by the men about the cost of the villa and their identities, they became greedy.
"Give us 100 million! A million is not enough!"
Everyone was watching the show, but when they heard Drew's words, someone let out a chuckle.
They've never cared for Maja for a day, but now they demand 100 million at first sight?
At first, everyone thought Maja was really ignoring her biological parents, but it turned out they were a pair of vampires.
The laughter made Drew lose his confidence, but in the end, greed won.
"100 million, and we'll never bother you again. Also, you have to get your brother out."
Maja found it amusing, her face completely cold.
"No, you can sue. I'll pay whatever the court orders."
Although the court would rule against her, the amount they would award would certainly not exceed $50,000. She was willing to give this couple a million just to get them out of her hair, but they demanded 100 million.
Maja regretfully couldn't oblige.
She was about to leave when Drew tried to grab her, but he tripped and fell, nearly knocking his teeth out.
Ian looked up and motioned to the bodyguard nearby.
"Throw them out."

Why are there no updates yet, Author. We've all been waitibg for quite a while now. Please, update soon, Author. Thanks....
Author, my thoughts on the book. When are You going to write on Cornelia and Omar Casson's romance? You made no mention, describing in detail how Maja and Uan's white wedding ceremony went. Also, you didn't write on Carol's baby delivery. What about Tyler's romance. Is there closure on Phelps Herrington being truly certified dead, so also his twin brother? Dylan's research institute "little girl", what became of her and Dylan's romance? Beck's blind dates, what were the results, is he married now, so also Dylan to his "little girl"? Why hasn't Ian's father- Steven come forward to meet Maja's parents as the in-laws meeting each other especially with his supposed past with Lillian; Maja's mother. I hope I won't remain curious for too long on the aforementioned issues, Author. Thanks for doing a good job on Zoey and Fitch's romance, though. Kudos....
