Chapter 1230

As he finished speaking, a noise came from the neighboring booth.

Someone was there

He slowly walked towards the booth, nudging the door open with his foot, only to find a sheepish looking Ryan

standing inside

Ryan had never expected to bump into his elder cousin here

His recent days had been pretty rough. Following his decision to pursue car racing with his friends, Maureen had

frozen all his bank accounts.

Though he still had the card lan had given him, filled with a significant amount of money

Still, he felt he shouldn’t be relying on his cousin’s money anymore

Given his current lifestyle he couldn’t afford to come to BlueSky Bar, but his business partner was entertaining here

tonight. He had to join since they co–owned the racing team, and he had to be present for drinks

But he never imagined that he’d hear his elder cousin’s crazy talk from the adjacent booth.

There was clearly no one outside, and he had no idea who his cousin was talking to, his face full of ferocity.

Ryan retreated, not expecting the door to be kicked open.

He flashed an awkward smile, even running his fingers through his hair in a nervous gesture.

“Well, what a coincidence, Eric.”

Patric’s face darkened instantly He’d planned to continue pretending to be gentle, but Ryan must have heard what

he’d just said. Should he kill this man?

As the thought crossed his mind, there was a knock on the bathroom door, followed by a casual voice

“Ryan, did you fall into a shithole or what?”

This was Ryan’s current business partner a black sheep of the Haskins family, who had been ousted from the family

during high school due to certain reasons

Ryan didn’t bother prying into other people’s secrets. They were just business partners after all.

When Patric noticed someone approaching, his ferocity faded instantly. After giving Ryan a deep look, he left.

Ryan let out a breath of relief, patting his chest lightly

The casual guy leaned against the doorframe, raising an eyebrow as Patric walked past him.

He then saw Ryan emerge from the booth, looking terrified, and burst into laughter.

“Are you serious?

He put an arm around Ryans shoulder in a buddy–buddy fashion.

Ryan had been hanging out with him recently, sharing drinks and stories.

“Why wouldn’t I be serious? You don’t know how terrifying my cousin is

As they walked out arm in arm, Ryan stopped abruptly upon seeing Maureen.

Maureen was here for a business engagement. Ever since Patric joined the Raymond Corporation, she had been

summoned back

Although she didn’t own any shares in the Raymond Corporation, she was drawing a high salary

Seeing Ryan with a man not far down the hallway, her face turned sour. After bidding her business partners

goodbye, she strode over

Ryan brushed off the man’s arm

“You go ahead My moms coming

The man left swiftly By the time Maureen approached, he was nowhere to be seen.

“Ryan, who was that? Haven’t I told you not to hang out with shady characters? Why won’t you listen? I’ve frozen

your cards now You better behave yourself. Once you apologize to me, it give you money to spend.”

Ryan wanted to laugh at her interrogative tone

Hed been away from home for so long without making a single phone call. Now, on their first meeting, all he got

was a scolding

He wanted to turn around and leave, but Maureen grabbed his wrist

“Stop causing trouble While tan is dealing with his issues, come home with me. I’ll have Eric find something for you

to do at the Raymond Corporation, By the time lan returns, you’ll already be on your feet. He won’t say anything”

Ryan froze

“What happened to lan?!

A mocking smile appeared on Maureens face

“Maja disappeared He’s been devastated ever since I heard he’s been at home for several days now, having people

look for Maja It’s quite strange. Three forces are looking for Maja, yet nobody has found her

Ryan shook her hand off, instinctively wanting to rush to find lan but she added

“There’s no point going to find him now He’s not seeing anyone these days tak all for a woman, what a shame

Maureen never liked Maja Seng lan in such a pathetic state over a woman she disapproved of was imitating

Ryan quickly left, not wanting to hear any more

At some point, he felt irritated just by seeing his own mother

As he walked out the front door he saw his business partner waiting The man casually stung an arm over shoulder

“Your mother is quite force

Ryan rolled his eyes at him “Not everyone is as free and easy as you”

If you don’t want to be controlled, just do like me and cut off ties with your family”

Ryan gave him a once–over at this remark

“You sure did cut ties with the Haskins family, and I’ve always been curious about why you were kicked out. As far

as I know, you’re their only son, and with a cousin like Fitch, you had everything you wanted in Greenfield. But you

never returned after being kicked out of the Haskins family all those years ago.”

it’s due to some personal issues.”

The casual voice turned serious. “You’ll find out eventually”

“I’d rather not. The Raymond family is chaotic enough. I don’t need to get involved in your family’s affairs”
