Dear Ex-wife Marry Me (Maja and Ian) novel Chapter 1489

The island was still in the throes of battle.

Ian, with Oliver in tow, had made their escape.

Oliver was unscathed, huffing and puffing as he trailed behind Ian.

"Ian, are you off to see your lady love now?"

"Yeah."

Ian's tone was frosty. Hearing the gunfire outside, he pointed to a covert path.

"Take this way."

He had familiarized himself with the surroundings over the past few days.

After running for a while, Oliver felt that the sounds of battle had grown distant.

Standing in the middle of the street, Ian questioned some shadowy figures.

"Where is she?"

"Mr. Raymond, we located Ms. Pennyfeather ten minutes ago. Please, follow me."

The shadowy group was a force commanded by the patriarch of the Porter family.

With the family ring bestowed upon Ian by Oliver, Ian had become their new master.

"What about the other woman I asked you to find?"

"She's on Outer Island, but it's complicated."

"How so?"

"She's the spitting image of the woman in the photo you gave us, but she's blind, deaf, and locked up in a pitch-dark cellar."

With his heart skipping a beat, Ian wondered what had befallen Cynthia.

He lowered his lashes, "Let's head to Maja first."

"Understood."

The group hastened toward Maja's location, yet Maja was still bedridden.

The ruckus on Middle Island tonight hadn't gone unnoticed by her.
