Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1161

Dylan's eyes landed on Maja. He frowned, but his good upbringing didn't allow him to stoop to the level of hurling insults at her.

After all, she was alone and they had the numbers on their side.

Judith had just been released from the hospital today and had planned to host her friends who had traveled all the way from North America to see her.

Seeing Maja alone, Judith couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

With her status as a member of the Sanders family, she had many friends in North America. She definitely wouldn't be left alone like Maja.

Moreover, she had specifically called Linda over. Linda was known for her fiery temper, and with just a little prompting, could be counted on to say something quite unpleasant.

And sure enough, Linda spoke up at that moment.

“You tramp, we'll make you pay sooner or later!”

She touched her own face, her eyes narrowed on Maja as if she wanted to tear her apart.

Judith quickly intervened, “Linda, let's go inside.”

“Come on, Beck. Let's go.”

Beck was standing aside and sighed softly. After the incident at the bar, his brother had given him a stern warning not to speak with Maja, especially in public.

Especially since he had promised to do a favor for Judith for one of the three slots to Hollywood, and her requirements were the same as his brother's: to not speak with Maja in public.

All he could do was give Maja a nod in response.

But Linda, with her fiery temper and the crowd on her side, raised her hand to slap Maja. She was determined to return the slap she had received.

She signaled her two friends to grab Maja's arms while she swiftly moved to slap her.

But her hand was caught mid-air.

Ian's other hand rested on Maja's shoulder, pulling her towards him.

His gaze shifted to Dylan, a light chuckle escaping his lips. The overhead light highlighted his stunning features, like a hint of early spring warmth.

“Mr. Sanders, it's not very gallant to pick on the weak, is it?”

His tone was casual, but his gaze was intense.

“Too busy, I forgot.”

“Ian, come with me for a moment.”

Ian didn't move, even when she tugged on his hand.

“You think I didn't apply it on purpose, don't you?”

As he said this, he stared intently at her.

A look of embarrassment crossed Maja's face. She had indeed thought so.

She believed that she understood Ian to some extent.

Ian slowly removed her hand, “Mr. Pennyfeather, there's no need to bother you. I've been quite busy lately.”

His words were veiled with a hint of sarcasm, causing a pang of guilt in Maja.

But Ian didn't give her time to react. He went straight back to his private room.
