Chapter 1169
Maja was dissatisfied, but too shy to express her feelings. She felt restless and empty inside.
“You’re happy he’s back, aren’t you?”
“No.”
“Do you want me?”
Biting her lip. Maja was sweating heavily under his questioning.
At that moment, lan’s phone rang. It was a call from Fitch.
lan answered, listening to the voice on the other end.
“Greenfield won’t be peaceful tonight. The higher–ups have been searching for the research results that Eric had
once led. Steve was alarmed. He just called me, under pressure from above, hoping to persuade Eric to release the
research results Eric contacted them, claiming that he had suffered mental abuse and couldn’t recall where the
chip was stored, unless Maja was

This was a matter of national concern. As soon as Eric returned, he used this as a bargaining chip.
In order to get the research results, the higher–ups would certainly put pressure on the Raymond family.
lan’s eyes narrowed. He opened the door to leave, but was stopped by Maja, who had been stirred by his
questioning.
“I want you.”
lan stiffened.
He slammed the door in front of him. He turned around and pulled Maja into his arms. They made their way to the
bed, kissing passionately.
Their breaths became hot and heavy.
Maja could barely catch her breath, her forehead dotted with sweat
lan was also in a fervor, his movements wild, as though he wished to suffocate her with his kisses.
When they finished, it was already one in the morning.
Maja was out of energy, listening to him on the phone.
He must be talking to Fitch.
Fitch had already slept for a while, likely knew what lan had been doing, and didn’t ask more.
“lan, the higher–ups are still meeting. For this chip, they will definitely want to talk to Maja personally. Steve also
feels the pressure. Eric wants Maja He accepted the mission back then because of Maja. His only obsession is Maja.
Perhaps with Maja by his side, he could recall the research results, remember the exact location of the chip”
This was just one of Eric’s goals. His other goal was likely aimed at lan’s position as the heir
Compared to Eric’s research results, all the contributions lan made to the higher–ups would have to step aside.
With these research results, the higher–ups could easily solve many international problems
So as long as Eric insisted, they would definitely send someone to persuade Maja. If Maja didn’t cooperate, the
company would be in danger After all, this was no longer about dealing with a single enemy
lan understood the hidden machinations in this scenario, his eyebrows slightly raising.
His slender fingers were still on Maja’s smooth back, slowly moving

She probably knew that she and lan were in trouble. Plus, with the Sanders family, their situation was dangerous.
Maja couldn’t help but grab lan’s hand, their fingers interlacing tightly, causing lan to feel somewhat surprised
He quickly dismissed Fitch with a few words, then slowly turned his body to fully embrace Maja
“What’s wrong?”
Maja’s head was buried in his chest, the realization that Patric was Eric causing her heart to ache.
If lan hadn’t entangled himself with her, then Eric could have returned, and they could have remained as close as
brothers.
Chapte
He wouldn’t have had to face the rumors in their circle, nor the pressure from above.
Now, they were both beleaguered.
“lan.”
She called out, and lan held her even tighter, his chest filled with emotion.
“Maja, as long as you choose me.”
His voice was soft, as if he wished to embed her into his chest.
