Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 494

Chapter 494 

Maureen just shot Maja a quick glance, then looked away 

After all, Maja’s life choices were none of her business. 

She didn’t bother with Maja, instead following a few high–ranking people into the elevator 

A waiter approached Maja cautiously, asking, “Miss, do you need any help?” 

Maja shook her head and left alone 

Her body ached, especially her knees. 

She took a cab back to Rosewood Manor and went straight to sleep 

Maria knew Maja hadn’t come back last night but didn’t dare ask more. 

After all, Maja had never been fond of Rosewood Manor 

Maria could only make some soup, hoping it would help Maja recover. 

Meanwhile, Maureen frowned after getting into the elevator, suddenly realizing this was the hotel where lan was staying, and Maja had just left from here 

She didn’t believe those marks on Maja were left by lan. 

lan was not that kind of person. 

But who truly understood lan in the Raymond family? 

Maureen couldn’t resist and called lan 

At that moment, lan was sitting on the couch, staring at the documents on the table since Maja left. 

He couldn’t concentrate on a single word, feeling inexplicably imitated. 

“lan, where are you?” 

“In the hotel” 

Histone was emotionless. 

Maureen immediately had a bad feeling and rushed to lan’s room. 

lan was neatly dressed, cold in demeanor, with documents in front of him, he didn’t look like someone who would rough up a woman like that 

Maja’s neck was visibly marked, and if so many were visible, there must be more hidden 

Maureen looked at lan. He was always quiet, even when with family, and he had a strong presence since childhood. 

At the moment, there was a hint of red under his eyes, as if he had a pleasurable experience last night. 

“Aunt Maureen, what’s up?” 

Maureen glanced around the living room but saw nothing unusual. 

She didn’t go into the bathroom. After all, it was lan’s private space, and he was a clean freak who didn’t like sharing things. 

“I just ran into Penny” 

lan’s gaze hardened, but he didn’t say anything. 

Maureen continued, “She could hardly walk. As a woman, I know what she’s been through. I hope it wasn’t you, lan. You’re not that kind of person.” 

lan’s eyebrow raised, a rare smile appearing in his eyes. 

His face was still handsome, but the vibe he gave off was not to be underestimated, 

“So what kind of person do you think I am?” 

Maureen frowned, she really couldn’t say 

lan was cold about everything. Because Eric was too outstanding, lan inevitably got overshadowed. 

So, no one tried to stop lan from doing whatever he wanted. 

All in all, lan hadn’t been with the Raymond family for long, but he grew up under Holden’s wing. 

Back in the days when Holden was not retired, he often took lan to the army. It was said that lan almost made a significant contribution when he was about twelve. But Holden didn’t want lan to attract attention. After all, someone from the Raymond family was already serving the higher ups, so he let someone else take the credit. 

The person who made that contribution didn’t know if they would live or die before doing it. 

But lan was facing death at such a young age. 

It made sense that Holden liked lan. He and lan had the same spirit when Holden was fighting in the army
