Chapter 352


    Maja was taken aback, rooted to the spot. If she didn’t already know that Coco was at Rosewood


    Manor, she might’ve totally bought his act. Why on earth wouldn hold a dog hostage?


    With a helplessugh, she quickly caught up to him.


    “Mr. Raymond, my Coco really is missing. You might not be mistaken. Where did you see it? I’ll go


    look.”


    Ian stopped in his tracks. He was dressed in a sharp ck suit and crisp white shirt, and his jawline


    tensed slightly. His voice was cool and clear.


    “You and your husband should go look together. You might still find it.”


    Maja was speechless, her steps faltering.


    “Mr. Raymond, my husband is really busy.”


    Her voice was filled with helplessness.


    have a meeting in five minutes. Don’te to me if it’s not about the renovation.”


    The elevator doors opened, andn stepped in.


    It was a private elevator. There was no one else around.


    Maja stood at the entrance, watching as the elevator doors closed.


    Then she started mulling over whyn would hold Coco hostage.


    But no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t find a reasonable exnation.


    In the end/she could only take out her phone and send a text to Maria.


    “Maria, Coco will be staying there for the time being. But don’t let Mr. Raymond know that she’s a dog


    from Rosewood Manor. Just go along with what Mr Raymond says.”


    Maria has been working at Rosewood Manor for so many years that she immediately understood the


    subtext and responded immediately, “Don’t worry Ms. Pennyfeather.”


    Maja trusted her. On the one hand, she had to act like she was desperately looking for Coco.


    Otherwise,n might find her behavior suspicious, suspecting she knew Coco was safe.


    She posted a notice on her Facebook page with two pictures of Coco.


    The ount was mainly for work, filled with clients who owned vis. It didn’t take long before the post


    had over tenments, with people offering to share it.


    Among these vi owners, some were connected to Ryan Elston. So, Ryan found out about Maja’s


    post from someone else’s Facebook.


    Connie Raymond also saw the post and immediately forwarded the news ton.


    “Penny’s dog is missing. Can’t you use your influence to help her look? She even added a pitiful


    emoji.”


    Connie really liked Maja, and given that she’d walked in on Penny andn once, she subconsciously


    felt that Maja, was special ton.


    Even if they were just friends with benefits, things were different.


    Connie sent another message.


    “Coco is already old, and Penny must consider her part of the family. She must be really worried.


    There’s barely anything on her Facebook, just this post.”


    Connie also adored Coco. She hopedn would quickly use the resources of the Raymond family to


    find the dog.

    Remembering Penny’s appearance at the Raymond family’s residence this morning,n’s gaze


    deepened.


    At that moment, Jeff walked into the room.


    “Mr. Raymond, the meeting has started.”


    Asn prepared to head to the meeting room, he decided to call Maria.


    Take good care of Coco, don’t let it get lost again. I’ll bring it to its ownerter.”


    Maria was surprised. Ian had always been indifferent to matters at Rosewood Manor. Was he calling


    personally over a dog?


    Once she’d recovered from the surprise, she nced at Coco frolicking in the manor’s main hall.


    “All right, Mr. Raymond, I understand.”


    After hanging up,n originally nned to let Maja know, but he hesitated. In the end, he left his phone


    on the table and headed to the meeting room.


    Letting her worry a little wouldn’t hurt.
