Nydia chuckled on the other end of the line
“Alright, I emailed you earlier, but you didn’t respond. I called because there’s a good chance Augus‘ lost daughter
might be in Greenfield”
“Hmm”
After hanging up the call, lan rubbed his temples
He hadn’t had a good night’s sleep in a while, and he was feeling the pressure.
Despite his headache, he felt surprisingly energetic, as if he were wound up like a clock
He headed over to BlueSky Bar where he encountered the new arrivals that Tyler had mentioned
The women at BlueSky Bar were all of high quality, and one was sitting right next to Tyler
As lan sat down, a girl in a white t–shirt plopped down next to him. With her innocent face, ponytail, and clear eyes,
she looked quite pure
“Mr Raymond drink up”
It wasnt until she turned her face towards him, looking at him softly, that lan stiffened.
This girl looked too much like Maja, both in appearance and aura
But she seemed more like the Maja from high school
After his grandfather’s passing lan found photos of Maja from her high school years in the old house. They were
likely collected by his grandfather
In those photos, Maja was dressed in a white t–shirt and a ponytail, holding a bouquet, probably taken after her high

That was probably Majas only high school photo, which he had secretly kept without telling anyone
Now, seeing this girl, he was reminded of Maja from high school
She was pure, gentle, and had a lovely smile
But he didn’t know her in high school.
She knew Eric
No matter what he did he could never measure up to Eric in Maja’s eyes.
Even if he was willing to give up the Raymond Corporation, even if he only wanted to take her to North America,
she saw him as something to be ashamed of
She trampled on his feelings, trampled on his dignity
How could a woman be so heartless?
“Mr Raymond, are you upset?”
The girl was here for the first time and cautiously held his hand.
lan was the most handsome man she had ever seen, far superior to those pretentious seniors at her school.
And he was nich. After seeing his interview, she fell for him at first sight.
Probably every woman who saw his interview fell for him
She had dreamed about him several times, about being with him.
Now with him right in front of her despite her shyness, she couldn’t help but reach out and hold his hand.
lan, however pulled his hand back, unmoved.
Tyler also noticed the girl’s appearance and raised his eyebrow
“Doesnt she look a lot like that one girl?”
lan’s tone was indifferent, pushing away the drink she had brought
“Maybe”
She just looked like her. She wasnt her
Tyler was straightforward.
“But I think she’s a lot prettier, being young is an advantage”
As he finished speaking two bodyguards came in, ready to grab the gri
The girl was startled and clung to lar’s arm
“Mr Raymond save me
lan frowned at the intruding bodyguards
Only then did the bodyguards notice who was in front of them and immediately let go.
“Mr. Raymond, this gut is my young masters favorite. He funded her education from high school to college with the
condition that she would sleep with him when she turned nineteen”
lars eyes were calm as he looked at Tyler
Tyler rarely returned to the Berinait farmiy especially after that incident he had little contact with his family.
Now this young master must be from the Bennitt family
After all the bodyguards became mote respectful when they saw Tyler
Tyler waved them off, not interested in their affairs.
“Take her away”
But the girl clung to las arm

“Mr Raymond please save me I don’t want to go with him, I really don’t. I can pay him back. Take me, please. I’ll do
anything. If I look like someone, I can be her replacement Really I can be good”
There were plenty of women at BlueSky Bar, but none dared to throw themselves at lan
Everyone knew he didn’t keep women.
But now this girl looked so pitiful lan felt a moment of confusion, then he looked at Tyler.
Tyler understood that lan was about to intervene
He had no choice but to greet the bodyguards
“Tell your young master, this woman is now under Tyler’s protection Here’s $300,000, enough to cover her
educational expenses”
Seeing the check the bodyguards understood Tyler’s intentions and awkwardly left
A glint flashed in the girl’s eyes as she timidly clung to lan’s suit sleeve.
“Mr. Raymond, my name is Jolin
lan glanced at her face as his phone rang. It was a call from Beck.
“lan, what’s going on? Why did Maja suddenly leave with Enc? I heard from my brother that she’s staying at Eric’s
villa, and they’re pretty close”
When lan heard the last part, his eyes showed a ripple of emotion before he grunted in response.
Beck had a lot more to say, but remembered his grudge with lan
“I also heard that Eric is planning to propose to Maja next month. I just got the news.”
lan’s hand, which was holding a glass of wine, dropped it to the floor upon hearing this
He felt as if he couldn’t breathe, and instinctively pulled the girl next to him into his arms
