Maja was wrapped in Patric's arms, feeling a cold chill running down her spine.
Patric, however, raised a brow and immediately dialed Ian's number.
"Didn't you mention last time that all it would take for you to sign the share transfer agreement was a meeting with Maja? Let's meet at the Raymond Corporation's penthouse at 8 AM tomorrow. I'll bring her."
He hung up without waiting for a reply and turned to Maja, "Let's go inside."
He strode ahead, but noticed Maja wasn't following. Turning back, he saw the dull look in her eyes.
He waved his hand in front of her face, but she didn't respond.
Stiffening, Patric heard Eric's voice in his head.
"What's wrong with Maja?"
Whenever it concerned Maja, Eric was always the first to react.
Patric replied in his mind.
"Isn't it obvious? She's blind now. The man who brought her here really didn't hold back."
Impatiently, he grabbed Maja's hand and led her inside.
"Let me go!"
Maja felt like she was falling into an ice pit. She was really being handed over to Patric. By tomorrow, Ian would no longer be the CEO of the Raymond Corporation.
Her fear was overwhelming, and she wished she could just die then and there.
"Let me go!"
Once inside the hall, Patric threw her onto the couch.
Maja, blinded, fell into the cushions.
Patric raised an eyebrow, picked up the handcuffs from the side and cuffed her to a sturdy rack nearby.
"You'll stay here tonight. Tomorrow, I'll use you to trade with Ian for the Raymond Corporation."
His resolve was unyielding. He couldn't afford to miss this opportunity.
Maja fell silent, feeling the deep hatred Patric harbored for Ian.
"Eric, have you forgotten the suffering at the research center? Who was there for you when you needed them? She's clearly using you, hoping you'd help her escape. But it's for Ian, not you, Eric. Don't be foolish. You met her first, but she loves Ian."
Patric clutched his head, the pain nearly causing him to faint.
"Eric, you're already weak. If you forcefully take control of the body, you'll only disappear faster."
As soon as he finished speaking, Patric felt his thoughts become light and airy.
Eric had taken over.
Maja sat on the couch, watching as the man spun around.
His aura had changed, his eyes looking incredibly weak. He stumbled towards the drawer, pulling out the key to the handcuffs, ready to set her free.
"Maja, listen to me. You haven't slept with Patric."
He held the key, trembling as he attempted to unlock the handcuffs, when a sudden pain seized his chest.
The key fell to the ground and he braced himself against the coffee table, sweat pouring down his face.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
