Chapter 298


    That night, Maja slept like a baby and woke up feeling refreshed.


    The first thing she did was grab her phone. There was a missed call fromn from his private number.


    Maja frowned.


    “Did Holden give him a hard time again?” she wondered.


    She sent him a text while she was brushing her teeth and getting ready for the day.


    “Anything up?”


    By then,n had already arrived at the Raymond Corporation.


    Seeing her casual text rubbed him the wrong way. But he wasn’t about to lose his cool over a woman.


    So he deleted the message.


    If Holden had let it go, he saw no reason to keep in touch with her.


    Maja didn’t expectn to reply anyway. After all, she had used her private number. He probably only


    called out of respect for Holden.


    After freshening up, she immediately called Holden to check on him.


    To her surprise, Holden saw her as a poor, heartbroken woman neglected by her husband.


    “Maja, rest assured, I’m always on your side. If anything like this happens again, let me know. I’ll make


    That was why he had agreed to get married when Holden asked him to, all for the sake of his health.


    “As for Carlene, don’t worry about her. I won’t let her marryn. Even without you, she wouldn’t stand a


    chance.”


    So Carlene was out of the picture in Holden’s eyes.


    Maja’s eyes welled up with tears as she listened to Holden’sforting words.


    “Holden, thank you.”


    A smile spread across Holden’s face, dissipating his irritation from the night before.


    “You don’t need to thank me. Rosewood Manor is your wedding gift from me. Only you can decide


    who’s allowed in. Evenn ha’s no right to stay if you want him out. Your name is on the deed


    So, when she got married, Holden gave her the house.


    Maja knew it was a wedding gift from Holden to her andn, but she didn’t know the deed was in her


    name.


    “And I arranged for the deed before you got your marriage certificate. So Rosewood Manor is your


    premarital property.”


    Holden’s words warmed her heart. She feared her voice would crack with emotion if she went on.


    She felt that apart from her mother, Holden and Herbert were the kindest people she knew.


    After hanging up, she had a peaceful morning. She leisurely made breakfast, and after eating, she


    went to the hospital.


    The Shepard family.


    Ever since Carlene returned from Rosewood Manor, she had been throwing a tantrum in her room.


    The thought of Holden’s humiliation made her see red.


    It was infuriating!


    What was so great about that ugly woman that Holden would humiliate Carlene for her?


    “You’ve locked yourself in your room all night. Come out and eat something.”


    Dana Shepard knocked on the door, with her voice filled with worry.


    Carlene took a deep breath. She had been too eager. She knew Holden didn’t fancy her, but she


    rushed to Rosewood Manor because of Selena’s words, only to give her enemies a handle.


    Her eyes were red, and there was a taste of blood in her mouth.


    “Come in.”


    Dana sighed in relief and quickly walked in.


    “What happened?”


    “Didn’t you meet a lot of socialites in Greenfield? Send them a message, tell themn’s wife is

    flirtatious and even caught betraying Mr. Raymond. Holden only lets her stay in the Raymond family


    because she once saved his life. And she’s not even good–looking. Make sure you send it


    anonymously.”


    If Holden was so satisfied withn’s wife, then she would ruin that woman’s reputation!


    This was Dana’s strong suit.
