Chapter 927
“Could you get a nurse to check on him in his room and see if he has a fever? You know how badly he got hurt this
time; why not let him rest more at the hospital?”
“Ms. Penny, the boss was supposed to stay in the hospital for half a month, but when he heard Darlene was injured,
he asked me to arrange his discharge. We’ve investigated it thoroughly, the baby Darlene is carrying isn’t the
boss’s. He didn’t have any contact with her that night. That night, you came to Greenfield Gardens, and after you
left, he just went to sleep. Darlene deceived both the boss and us; the child is hers and some male servant’s.”
Maja’s mouth fell open, not sure how to react to this news.
She had to admit that when she heard that lan hadn’t been with Darlene, she felt a certain joy.
“What about Darlene?”
‘As for Ms. Darlene’s behavior towards Coco, the boss has already dealt with her.”
Maja immediately thought of the baby in her belly. If Darlene died, then the baby…
“Ms. Penny, the baby might not survive because of Darlene’s emotional ups and downs. This is all her own doing,
don’t think too much about it.”
After Jeff finished speaking, worried that she would forget about lan, he steered the conversation back.
“The boss was in a really bad state last night, like he’d lost his soul. Today he doesn’t want to see anyone; would you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcome and see him?”
Maja thought about her deal with Beck Sanders and felt torn.
If she decided to distance herself from lan, then continuing to give in like this wasn’t good for either of them.
If she decided to be with lan, then accepting Beck’s benefits would be immoral.
Jeff sensed her hesitation and bluntly said,
“I can’t convince the boss. If something happens,”
“Jeff, go to the housekeeper and get the key; go check on him.”
Their argument last night had been severe, and Maja was worried that lan might lose his temper if she went to him
now.
Jeff wanted to say more, but considering their personalities, he could only agree.
“Alright.”
He was there last night too, he knew there were issues between the two of them, so it was better to let them cool
down separately.
Jeff went upstairs, knocked on the door,
lan didn’t respond.
So he had to push the door and go in.
The curtains in the room were all drawn, it was pitch black, and he couldn’t see anything.
Jeff hurriedly pulled the curtains open, hearing lan’s hoarse voice: “Let me sleep a bit longer.”
His voice was even more hoarse than yesterday, and Jeff was startled.
“Boss, do you have a fever?”
But lan didn’t answer.
Jeff had to hurriedly call a doctor.
lan did have a fever, and it was severe.

He was discharged early, and his wound got wet when he took a bath last night, causing a minor infection. Now he
couldn’t take any medicine. He was just lying in bed.
The doctor arranged for him to have an IV drip, he originally wanted to transfer him to the hospital, but lan refused.
Everyone at Greenfield Gardens was extremely anxious, the doctor was pacing back and forth in lan’s bedroom, but
no matter what the doctor suggested, lan wouldn’t cooperate.
The doctor had no choice but to ask Jeff for help, “Can you get Holden Raymond over here? If Mr. Raymond’s
condition doesn’t improve soon, I’m afraid…”
Jeff was at a loss too and had to call Maja again.
This time, Maja came. She hesitated in the lobby of Greenfield Gardens for a few minutes, then went upstairs.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNan didn’t like having people in his room, since Darlene left, the room had been thoroughly cleaned and
disinfected. Now he was lying in bed, an IV needle
in the back of his hand, his face pale and sickly.
Maja held the medicine the doctor prescribed, since lan didn’t want to take it, the doctor hoped she could help.
She sat by the bed, thought for a moment, and decided to call him.
“lan, take the fever reducer first.”
lan didn’t say anything. He probably didn’t expect her to come.
Knowing she was there, his agitation lessened a lot, but then he started to get angry, feeling furious.
Maja stuffed the fever reducer into his closed mouth, reminding her of giving medicine to pets in the past.
Pets are smart, but they just don’t like taking medicine, they always cough once and spit it out.
lan’s reaction was the same as a pet’s: frowning when given medicine, not opening his mouth.
Maja gently turned his face and tried to feed him the medicine again, but he kept his teeth clenched.
She had to get up, go out, and ask Jeff.
“He won’t take it, is there another way?”
Jeff’s eyes flickered. “I have a method, but it depends if you’re willing.”
What’s the method?”
“You can feed him with your mouth
Hearing Jeff’s straightforward suggestion, Maja’s face turned red.
“If you feed him with your mouth, I guarantee he’ll take it.”
