Ian sensed her mood, resting his chin on her chest, he curiously asked, "What's up?"
His tone was akin to a playful tease.
That was a side of Ian that others didn't get to see.
Maja's defenses crumbled in an instant.
"It's nothing, just thinking about how busy you are, and yet you still manage all my company affairs."
He chuckled lightly, capturing her hand to play with.
"Maja, once things settle down a bit, I'll take you on vacation."
"Yeah."
Maja agreed verbally, but she had a gut feeling that their so-called vacation might be indefinitely postponed.
Ian rose, guiding her to sit nearby.
"I want to take you for a health check-up."
Given Clara's status, she carried too many diseases. If there were any inherited from birth, it would be better to know sooner rather than later.
Moreover, Drew's brother seemed to have some other defects besides being a cripple.
He was really worried about Maja’s health; it was necessary to take preventative measures.
But perhaps the last thing Maja wanted to deal with at that point were those two individuals.
She knew Ian's intentions, but the sudden rush of embarrassment turned her cheeks a shade paler.
Ian patted her back, his tone reassuring.
"Clara and Drew are actually related. Otherwise, when Clara retired, she wouldn't have found a marriage partner. Drew, being a bachelor of a certain age, had just been released from prison and had a bad reputation locally. No woman wanted to marry him."
Such unions often produced children with congenital diseases and disabilities.
As he spoke, he covertly observed Maja's expression and reaction to his words.
Maja remained silent, standing quietly. After a while, she finally spoke up, saying,
"Where are they now?"
"They've been sent back to Crystalbrook Valley. They won't be coming to Greenfield again."
Ian hadn't killed them after all. Thinking of that, Maja's eyes were filled with a cold rage.
"Ian, let's go to Rosewood Manor."
"Okay."
Ian was at that moment willing to do anything to accommodate her.
An hour later, they arrived at Rosewood Manor.
Coco ran over from a distance, jumping and barking by her side.

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....
