Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1206

Jeff didn't respond, it's worth for Mr. Raymond to put up with all the slights and grievances as long as Maja can understand him.

Maja headed into Rosewood Manor alone, while Jeff began to arrange for the transportation of Coco and Rocky.

When Maria saw someone was about to take Coco away, she panicked.

Maja explained to her.

"Maria, I'm planning to move to Greenfield Gardens, to live with Ian."

Maria was speechless at this news.

She wanted to dissuade Maja, but this was their private matter.

She fondled Coco's head repeatedly, feeling reluctant to let it go. Then, she thought of Maja's three years of marriage to Ian, three years of being neglected. Her eyes reddened instantly, and tears began to drop.

"Ms. Pennyfeather, I regard you as my own granddaughter. I really don't want you to suffer in his presence. I know what kind of life you've been living these past three years. But, if you're happy, that's all that matters."

Maja gently hugged her.

"Maria, I'm not the kind of woman who takes a lot of abuse in a relationship. If one day I am really disappointed in him, I will leave on my own."

Maria wiped her tears and patted Maja's hand.

"As long as you keep your wits about you."

Maja had packed up the documents she wanted. As she was about to leave the living room, Maria couldn't help but remind her.

"If the food there doesn't suit your taste, or if Mr. Raymond doesn't treat you well, come back any time. Miss Pennyfeather, we will always be here at Rosewood Manor waiting for you."

"Maria, I know, and I will often come back to see you."

Maja felt somewhat sentimental.

As she carried her belongings towards the car, she saw Ian getting out of the vehicle.

He was a bit unsteady on his feet, but he still tried to help her with the luggage.

"Maja, let me."

Maja chuckled at his staggering movements.

"It’s okay. I can manage."

"I'll help you."

He insisted, even bending down to pick up the bag.

Maja handed it to him, worrying he might topple over. But surprisingly, he held it steady, even leaning in to plant a kiss on her cheek.

"Maja, let's go home, to Greenfield Gardens."

Maja nodded and allowed him to guide her to the car.

Ian finally let go, leaning back quietly with his eyes closed.

Maja dried his hair for five minutes until it was dry.

She helped him onto the bed, covering him with a blanket. As she got up to go take a shower, he grabbed her wrist.

His dark eyes stared at her intently, his brow furrowed.

"Maja, you'll come back, right?"

"I'm just going to take a shower."

"I'll join you."

He tried to get out of bed, even pulling the covers back.

Left with no choice, Maja went to Jeff for a pair of handcuffs and cuffed Ian to the bed to prevent him from wandering around the room.

He hadn’t been sober yet, and it was easy to get hurt somewhere.

When she took the handcuffs from Jeff, she could tell from his eyes that he was thinking something else.

He didn't expect Ms. Pennyfeather and the boss to be into this kind of play.

Maja wanted to explain, but she felt that would only make things more awkward!
