Chapter 158

Maja strutted downstairs, found the living room deserted. She had a phone call scheduled with her company at seven, so she grabbed her bag from the foyer and headed out, oblivious to the gift on the table.

Maria, on the other hand, was tied up in the kitchen, cooking up a nutritious dinner to replenish Maja’s body. So, she also missed Maja’s exit.

Faced with Holden’s pressure, lan had no choice but to go along considering his health.

“Grandpa, I’ve arrived at Rosewood Manor.”

Hearing lan’s words, Holden finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, Maja’s father had been sick a few days ago, so it was normal for her to be upset. As lan, he should comfort Maja at this time.
