Chapter 549


    This woman has lived in Selena’s memory for thirty years. Now that she knew Maja was Lillian’s


    daughter, she nearly shrieked. Steve, on the other hand, kept his silence. It was clear he’d known


    about this for a while.


    Selena was sobbing and cursing for what felt like forever, finally bursting into a heartfelt cry, “You’ve


    crossed the line, Steve! Just you wait and see! If I’m going down, I’m taking you with me!”


    With that, she hung up the phone and headed straight for her mom’s ce.


    Edith watched as the once peaceful home was disrupted by Maja’s presence and couldn’t help but


    sigh. “What the hell’s going on? That woman’s nothing but bad news. She’s trouble and sooner or


    later, she’ll be out of the Raymond family.”


    The two argued for hours at Rosewood Manor before finally leaving.


    At the hospital, Holden rushed over as soon as he heard aboutn’s ident.n was still in surgery,


    the light still on, but no one knew what was happening inside.


    Holden coughed, seeming to age a few years in an instant. Fitch, worried about the old man,forted


    him, “Grandpa Holden,n will be fine. You should go home


    and rest.


    Holden was reminded of when he first heard of Eric’s death, feeling just as helpless. He didn’t want to


    relive that kind of pain.


    Three hourster, the operating room door finally opened andn was wheeled out.


    Holden, supported by others, walked over, “How is he?”


    Phelps took off his mask, his brows furrowed. “His back injury is serious, he might have a fever for a


    few days. We need to monitor his concussion too. We’re taking him to the ICU now. Don’t worry, his life


    isn’t in danger.”


    Relieved thatn’s life was not in danger, Holden almost fainted.


    Then Edith arrived, her voice filling the entire hallway. “Damn it, how many more people does that bad


    luck woman need to harm? Selena’s gone home to her mom, and you don’t even care.n needs to


    divorce Maja right now. Our family is going under, and it’s all because of that woman. She’s a jinx!”


    Edith was so angry she was unsteady on her feet. She grabbed Holden’s arm, “They need to get a


    divorce.”


    Holden, who was not in good health, almost fell from her grip. Others tried to intervene, but Edith


    ignored them. “I don’t care. They need to divorce, or the Raymonds will never have peace!”


    Holden took a deep breath, clearly tired. “Let’s wait untiln wakes up.”


    Edith huffed and sat down.


    Holden didn’t know thatn and Maja were together when the ident happened. No one mentioned it,


    and he didn’t even tell Maja aboutn’s injury. He thought if his grandson couldn’t appreciate what he


    had, there was no point in worrying that girl.


    had gone to her mother’s house in tears, so the Casson family sent someone over demanding an


    exnation and insisting Maja leave the Raymond family.


    In the Casson family’s words, if Maja continued to stay with the Raymonds, it would be an insult to the


    Cassons!


    Steve never showed up once during this whole ordeal, showing just how indifferent he was toward his


    wife.


    Between Selena, the Casson family, and Edith, the Raymonds hadn’t had a moment’s peace.


    However, Holden didn’t tell Maja any of this. He just called her and told her to focus on her own stuff.


    Maja had indeed been busy with the Pennyfeather grouptely. The selection of the top management


    had reached its final stages, and she didn’t know most of the staff well, except for one exceptionally


    capable person. So she was busy familiarizing herself with the profiles of the executives. No one knew

    what these newly promoted people were thinking, but they were all still on probation.


    Maja also hired a private investigator to go to Crystalbrook Valley to look into the baby–switching


    incident from years ago. But there was no news yet, so she could only deal with the Pennyfeather


    group’s matters and wait.


    At the hospital,n finally woke up. The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was Holden


    Raymond sitting by his bed. He instinctively wanted to ask where Penny was, but when he saw the


    look on Holden’s face, he shut his mouth.


    Holden’s expression was grim. When he sawn awake, he called Phelps over to take a look. n’s


    concussion is serious. He’ll need some time to recover. He should avoid straining his brain too much


    and avoid any head injuries.”


    Holden nodded, signaling Jeff to get a ss of water forn.


    Jeff was luckier thann in that he wasn’t injured, and he had been staying in the hospital room these


    past few days.


    Holden coughed a few times, and seeing that he was back to his usual aloof self, he asked, “Do you


    know who tried to kill you?”


    Holden was silent for a moment, feeling overwhelmed by the chaos in the Raymond family recently.


    “Do you have someone you like now?”


    <pn instinctively wanted to deny it, but something stopped him, and he closed his mouth.
