Dear Ex-wife Marry Me (Maja and Ian) novel Chapter 1832

Her heart ached once more as she hung her head, listening to Nathan's continuing tirade.

They both knew each other's intentions all too well.

She was aware of Nathan's desires, and he knew of her games—they were simply using each other.

She wanted to lift her hand to massage her temples, but Nathan beat her to it, placing his fingers gently there.

After a long moment, she agreed.

"Fine, let's elope then. Just hope you'll have the guts when it's time."

"I will."

When Carol was sent back, she saw that the wedding dress had already been delivered to the villa.

Felix and the designer were there, taking measurements of the dress and coordinating it with the venue's setup.

Carol had imagined trying on wedding dresses with Felix, but a call from Listina had pulled him away, leaving her to try them on alone.

The designer's eyes lit up when he saw her.

"Ms. Miller, care to try it on again? We've made quite a few subtle changes."

Truth be told, the dress was stunning; it was said to incorporate elements from fairy-tale mermaids.

Yet, Carol had no desire to try on the dress. She offered the designer a polite smile and headed upstairs.

The designer looked at Felix’s expressionless face, and quietly continued his work.

At ten o'clock, after Felix had taken care of all his affairs, he followed her upstairs.

When Carol found herself under him on the bed, she frowned in discomfort.

It had been like this for days, and since she couldn't resist, she tried to detach herself instead.

Just as she was about to drift off from exhaustion, a cool sensation suddenly wrapped around her wrist.

Opening her eyes, she saw a beautiful bracelet locked in place—and the key was with Felix.
