Watching any footage with Maja in it now, he could feel a faint throbbing in his cheeks.
His phone buzzed at that moment. It was a text from an unknown number.
[Is Maja pregnant?]
That message ignited Ian's temper instantly. Without hesitation, he dialed the number. The call was answered but no one spoke.
Ian's Adam's apple bobbed, and he was suddenly at a loss for words. After a long silence, he finally asked, "Where are you?"
A soft laugh echoed from the other end, then the call ended.
Ian's fist collided with the table next to him. He dialed again, ordering his men to locate Patric immediately.
Annoyed, he ripped off his tie and slumped back into his chair.
The live broadcast of the ceremony was nearing its end. He stood up, grabbing his suit jacket, and left the Raymond Corporation without a second thought.
When he arrived at the BlueSky Bar, he ran into Phelps.
It was rare to encounter this man, as Phelps was always busy.
But today, with Fitch and Tyler absent, Phelps joined him for a drink.
Halfway through their drinks, he asked, "Did you and Maja really break up? The rumors are all about you and Judith now."
Ian leaned back, the five-fingered mark on his cheek more prominent than ever.
"We broke up."
"How did it happen?"
Ian rubbed his cheek, trying to stay sober. But the more he tried, the quicker he got drunk.
"How does it usually happen? One person just stops liking the other."
"Did you stop liking her?"
Phelps thought Maja liked Ian. So, did that mean it was Ian who stopped liking Maja?
"No way!"
"Ian, when your bet with the EcoTraverse Group was exposed, Maja was very worried. And I heard she lost a child because of you, is that true?"
Ian's fingers stiffened around his glass, "That child was my fault. I didn't protect her."
He took another sip, his eyes swimming with intoxication.

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....
