Chapter 1272
Maja remained motionless, as if she had been petrified. As the man approached, the scent that
belonged to Ian grew stronger.
She opened her mouth to speak but closed it again, pushing him away.
This man couldn''t be Ian. Someone must be pretending to be him.
However, in the next moment, the man held her tightly.
Maja stiffened. As soon as she collected herself, she began to pummel her fists against his back.
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
She could only utter a single sound, her hands wildly beating against his back.
Upon hearing her sound, Ian froze, his eyes wide in disbelief.
The pain was unspeakable, as if his soul was being ripped apart and his body being hacked into
pieces, then reassembled.
He gripped Maja''s shoulders tightly, his voice hoarse, "What happened to your voice?"
He was so shocked, so heartbroken, that he forgot to disguise his own voice.
Maja stiffened, thinking she was hallucinating.
Ian?
She opened her eyes wide, then lowered her gaze, trying to cover her eyes.
Ian, however, firmly held her hands, his eyes zing with anger.
"What happened to your eyes? And your voice? Who did this?"
Maja panicked, pushing him away and trying to run.
But she couldn''t see. The moment she pushed him away, she fell to the ground.
Ian was shaking from the pain. He lifted her up, pulling her into his arms.
"Don''t be scared, I''m here. I''ll get you out of here. Don''t be scared."
"Ah, ah, ah."
She pointed frantically at her earring, then at the outside.
Ian didn''t understand. He removed her earring, seeing her swollen earlobe, he felt a pang in his heart.
He threw the earring out of the window, his eyes burning with rage.
"Don''t be scared. I''ll get you out of here, Maja."

Maja didn''t know what to say and suddenly fell silent.
She didn''t know if Mr. K was constantly monitoring her and if he had heard that Ian hade here.
She quickly cleared her mind, her hands moving on the ground, trying to grab Ian''s hand.
Tears welled up in Ian''s eyes as he grabbed her hands, "We''ll never be apart again."
He wanted to hold her.
"Ah!"
Maja clumsily held onto him, her fingers gripping his as she began to tap out a message on the floor.
Ian watched her with red eyes, finally understanding.
Maja was afraid that Patric would return soon. She also knew that Ian''s arrival here was not easy.
She remembered the harsh words she had said that day, words that could shatter a man''s pride, yet he
hade, unflinchingly standing by her side.
Tears rolled down her cheeks, falling onto the floor, but she did not slow down, quickly sharing what
she knew.
But Ian only asked her two questions.
"How did you lose your sight?"
"How did you lose your voice?"
After he found out that all the evidence pointed towards the Sanders family, his face turned cold in an
instant, his gaze as if he were looking at something dead.
He held her in his arms, his body as cold as ice.
Maja continued to tap on the floor, finally emphasizing to him.
"If you''re going to give up the Raymond Corporation, we should never see each other again. I can''t
bear the sacrifice you''re making."
So that was it.
Ian grabbed her hand, cing it on his cheek, rubbing it gently.
Even though they were in Eric''s mansion, they didn''t care about anything at the moment.
Maja was afraid that Patric would suddenly return. Additionally, she didn''t have time to tell him
everything about Mr. K. This would involve Lillian and she simply didn''t have the time to exin. She
only told him that she was being monitored by a third party, a man with a lot of power.
After typing this, she fell silent, her fingertips wet with her tears that had fallen on the floor.
Ian wanted to cry, but he couldn''t. He couldn''t imagine what she had been through recently.
His throat was dry, he couldn''t say a word. He just held her tightly in his arms.
"Ah ah."
After Maja uttered these words, she rested her head on his chest.
In the silent room, their heartbeats were clearly audible.
Ian held her tightly, his voice hoarse, "Don''t be scared. I''ll be with you."
He vowed that those who hurt her would pay, none would be spared.
Whether it was Edith, Steve, Bruce, or Dn, he would make them pay.
He lowered hisshes, suddenly cupping her face, and kissed her.
Maja''s heart pounded, her head tilted back.
The kiss was passionate, their breaths intertwining. Finally, she was pinned to the floor, making a
"thud" sound.
His hand cushioned her head, worried she might get hurt.
There was a knock on the door.
"Clown, what are you doing in there?"
Ian quickly lifted her shirt, biting hard on her chest.
"I''lle find youter."
Maja didn''t reply. She just turned her head, nodding slowly.
Even though she was blind, she was still embarrassed to face the source of the voice.
Ian reced the red patch on her cheek, opening the door and leaving.
The two bodyguards locked the door, discussing their ns to y cardster.
