Chapter 640
Maja bumped inton’s car on her drive back from the hospital.
Her heart started to pound rapidly.
Maja quickly dialedn’s number, but there was no reply.
She then called Jeff, who told her thatn nned to drive back to the hotel on his own that night.
In a hurry, Maja got out of her car. After a moment of thought, she decided to venture deeper into the
alley.
The far end of the alley was damp, there were flickering lights, obviously neglected for years.
There were men lying on the ground, their blood pooling together.
Maja’s legs gave out as a bullet whizzed past her.
Frozen in ce, she waited until a man slowly emerged from the shadows. She leaned against the
wall, standing under the flickering streemp.
The bullet had grazed her hair and embedded itself in the wall behind her.
Maja was too shocked to even speak, especially when she saw that the man with the gun wasn!
He seemed surprised to see her there.
By the time he realized it was her, the bullet had already strayed from its intended path. Otherwise, she
would have been dead..
bodies, and then blurted out, “What are you doing here?” “Mr. Raymond, are you hurt?”
This woman was strange. The scene was horrifying, a sea of blood, she herself had nearly been shot,
yet she was asking if he was hurt.
Most people would’ve screamed at the sight, maybe even thought he was a cold–blooded killer.
Maja stood still. The nauseating smell of blood had indeed shaken her, but she had an idea whyn
was being targeted.
Right now, only the Raymond family knew aboutn’s injury. The other members of the Raymond
family were up to no good, especially Carl Raymond and Dennis Raymond. They were hoping forn to
step down from his position as CEO of the Raymond Corporation. That was the perfect opportunity to
take him out.
Plus,n had lost his memory and didn’t trust Jeff anymore.
Maja leaned against the wall, even worrying thatn might want to kill her.
But he didn’t. He just flicked his cigarette onto one of the dead bodies and approached her.
Maja had nowhere to run, the light above her seemed to darken.

The next second, her chin was lifted by the barrel of a gun.
She didn’t know if the gun was loaded, didn’t dare to move, she could even feel the heat from the gun’s
muzzle.
Maja swallowed hard, looking up atn.
Had he buried his face in her chest before?
Maja noticed his gaze and instinctively covered herself.
“Mr. Raymond.”
Maja couldn’t answer that question.
Could it be because he liked her?
The barrel of the gun slowly moved down, sliding over Maja’s neck.
Her scarf slipped from her neck and fell to the ground. Maja shivered from the cold.
Yet the gun kept moving, pressing against her chest, pushing her clothes down slightly to reveal what
was underneath.
Maja’s fingers trembled, wondering if the next second would bring a bullet through her chest.
