Dear Ex-wife Marry Me (Maja and Ian) novel Chapter 696

Chapter 696 

Maja’s voice was flat and uninteresting, her lashes drooping, no longer speaking. 

lan looked at Maja, slowly pulling her into his arms, asking, “Did you have someone you like in your heart, yet you came to me? Aren’t you afraid of betraying him?” 

“He’s gone.” 

“He betrayed you?” 

“He’s dead.” 

lan’s breath suddenly stopped for a moment, and then he held Maja even tighter. 

So turned out she’s been liking a man who’s no longer in this world? 

That’s just great. 

A smirk spread across lan’s face. 

As the question and answer went on, Maja gradually regained her rationality. 

Perhaps it was Powell’s words that touched her sensitive spot, combined with the pressure call from Mia’s mother Sharon, she suddenly wanted to solve the problem through lan. 

These people all treated her like a pushover. On one side was work, and on the other was annoying rich people, and Maja was struggling to cope. Just like Powell said, some people’s backgrounds were simply different. She had to recognize her own place. 

If she couldn’t recognize that, what almost happened in the elevator could happen again at any time. 

So, Maja began to consider the request lan had made. 

But when she turned her head and saw the snowflakes falling outside the window, she suddenly felt filthy. 

Maja immediately stood up to leave, but lan grabbed her hand. 

He knew she regretted it, but once in this place, it wasn’t up to her. 

“How did you offend the Haskins family?” 

“I hit Mia.” 

lan was a little surprised, but it seemed like something she would do. 

“Mia’s mother, Sharon, dotes on Mia the most. If you hit her, Sharon won’t let you go. Mia has always been arrogant in this circle, and those who have offended her have basically been dealt with by Sharon.” 

In other words, Maja definitely can’t compete with Sharon. 

Against Sharon’s power, all of Maja’s tactics were useless. 

“What do you think I should do?” Maja asked. 

lan was still holding her hand, playing with each of her fingertips. 

“Isn’t my suggestion good?” he pulled her back, softly persuading, “And, you don’t hate me touching you, right? You like that, and you’re just too shy to say 

it.” 

It was her preference in private matters, but she might not have experienced many men, so she didn’t dare to speak. 

At this moment, lan felt like a bad guy, forcing a good girl to do bad things. 

“I like that too. Don’t you think we’re a good match?” 

He grabbed Maja’s hand, lightly biting each finger. 

A tingling sensation spread from her fingertips all the way to her heart. 

Knowing Maja had let down her guard, lan picked her up and headed for the master bedroom. 

The largest room upstairs was decorated in a style that lan liked. 

In this villa that she designed herself, being held to bed by the male owner, the feeling was a bit delicate. 

Today was the first time lan stayed in this villa, and he didn’t expect Maja to come with him. 

Maja lay on the bed. She wasn’t used to taking the initiative in these matters, so she closed her eyes. 

But the room was very quiet. Ian didn’t make a move. 

She opened her eyes and saw the man standing by the bed, a smirk in his eyes. 

Her face immediately turned red, and he was deliberately making her feel embarrassed. 

She had just rejected him, confessing to him that she had someone she liked, but in the end, she came to him. 

To put it bluntly, it was a very cheap behavior.
