Chapter 654

“Grandpa Holden, you shouldn’t get involved in this stuff. Leave it to lan.”

A smile spread across Holden’s face as he gently patted Maja’s back. But thinking about her divorce from lan, he sighed deeply.

Sensing that Holden still had something to say, Maja had Maria bring in a cup of coffee.

Holden seemed hesitant, staying silent for ten minutes before revealing what he had kept hidden in his heart.

“lan grew up with me in the military. The Raymond family never really looked after him, but the kid is really something. He spent three years overseas and came back wealthier than the entire Raymond family. No one knew that he was the mastermind behind the biggest acquisition case on Wall Street. He wasn’t even twenty then, and no one knows how many companies he managed to acquire in the process.”

Holden took a sip of coffee as he spoke.

“Man only agreed to take over the Raymond Corporation because I was there. The position was originally meant for his brother Eric. Ian is a military brat, and I’ve always trusted him, but I’ve also worried about him losing control one day. Carl Raymond and Dennis Raymond always thought I was playing favorites, thinking I cared too much about lan. But in reality, I was just trying to keep him in check. Maja, I initially wanted to pass this responsibility onto you, but he didn’t like you, and you didn’t like him.”

Maja’s heart jolted a bit. Holden had definitely never said these things to anyone else.

People had speculated that lan had assets overseas, but no one knew how much exactly.
