Chapter 801
lan’s face was stone cold. He gently touched his cheek, speaking in an icy tone.
“If my brother knew I gave up my shares for the one I fancy, he’d probably be chuffed.”
Maureen was speechless, opening her mouth but with no words coming out.
In the Raymond family, no one was ever head over heels in love. Like Dennis and Carl, they all had other women.
Who would’ve thought lan was willing to make such a sacrifice for Maja?
lan lifted his head, glancing at everyone present.
“I’ll have Jeff handle the share transfer. Notify me once the emergency situation here is over.”
With that, he turned to leave.
Unable to hold back, Maureen asked, “That’s your mother lying in there, lan. Can’t you even bear to stay a little longer?”
“Auntie, I standing here won’t change the outcome of the emergency.”
A chill ran down Maureen’s spine. She realized she really didn’t understand this kid.
He appeared naive to the ways of the world, yet he handled everything in the Raymond family with ease.
Yet he seemed to lack the usual emotions towards family and love, appearing indifferent.
But he was willing to make such a sacrifice for Maja. Didn’t he realize what this sacrifice meant?
He liked her, even loved her.
lan had left the hospital. He didn’t know this was love; he just didn’t want Maja to be interrogated by these people.
When he got into his car, he didn’t drive to the police station.
He hoped she would learn something from this experience. A bit of suffering at the police station could be good for her.
Leave her there for a few days before getting her out; she might be more grateful to him.
This was a strategy he often used in business, letting subordinates struggle a bit more so they’d be more loyal.
When he drove back to the Raymond family’s place, he was surprised at how calm he was.
But noticing his grip on the steering wheel, he realized he wasn’t as calm as he thought.
Maja was a heartless woman. If he went to the police station to rescue her now, she probably wouldn’t even look at him.
Only if he went when she was most desperate could he win her heart.
By now, he had the Raymond family under control. No one would go to the police station to bother her; at most, she’d just be questioned by the police, causing her some mental stress.
To stop himself from going to the police station, lan scheduled several meetings for himself, each lasting around three hours.
Meanwhile, Maja was at the police station, the harsh lights preventing her from resting. It was like being locked in a dark room.
“Why did you hurt Selena? Did you guys have any previous disputes? Think carefully before you answer; every word you say can be used as evidence.” Maja tried to open her eyes to see who was speaking, but she couldn’t see anything.
After four hours of questioning, she was taken to a small room..
Thankfully, there was a narrow bed in the room where she could rest.
She sat on the bed, reflecting on the day’s events.
Her cousin jumped off a building; Connie framed her for self–harm; and the situation outside was probably bad.
She leaned against the wall, trying to recall everything that happened at the Raymond family’s, but the more she thought, the heavier her heart became. Connie must’ve planned everything in advance; there were no cameras and no witnesses.
The Raymond family would definitely pin all the blame on her.
She was very agitated, partly due to Leo’s death and partly due to the responsibility she bore.

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....
