Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1248

Maja couldn't see his state, only heard his breathing turn ragged.

"Eric?"

"Maja, you're not wrong. Ian isn't wrong. Patric isn't wrong. We were never the ones at fault."

He spoke fast, like he realized he couldn't linger for too long.

He bent down to pick up the key, but his vision went dark.

When he straightened up again, he reverted back to his usual, fierce self.

He casually tossed the key in his hand and let out a cold laugh.

His eyes fell on Maja's cheek, he lifted her chin to scrutinize her face.

"Eric might be gone forever, Maja. The person you owe the most in this world is Eric."

Maja didn't say anything, just blankly stared ahead.

Patric felt irritated by Eric's meddling and didn't feel like giving Maja a hard time, so he got up to leave.

But surprisingly, Eric could still project his weak voice into Patric's mind.

His voice was so faint that unless he listened carefully, he wouldn't hear it.

This body control battle had left him, already in a weakened state, with just a breath left.

"Patric, about that human experiment."

Eric's words were slow and sporadic.

Patric's nerves were on edge. He had always wanted to know the whole truth about the human experiment, but Eric refused to share.

Eric only said that he was a personality forcefully awakened to serve a group of people.

But Patric didn't buy it. He always felt that he had a name before.

So, what was Eric hiding about the human experiment?

"Eric, keep talking. I'm listening. You know, I only want to understand how I came to be."

But Eric's voice in his mind disappeared, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep again, not knowing when he would wake up.

Patric was suddenly filled with rage, he kicked over the coffee table next to him.

"Tell me!"

But the voice in his mind had completely disappeared, leaving him wondering if Eric would ever wake up again.

Patric had always hoped for Eric's disappearance, so he could fully control the body.

Maja became even quieter, sitting on the sofa.

She didn't know what time it was. She just hoped tomorrow would come later.

After hanging up Patric's call, Ian stopped looking at the monitors in front of him.

He'd know by eight tomorrow morning if Maja was still alive.

He felt a sigh of relief. After all, since Patric dared to call him, Maja must be in his hands.

His heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled.

Only then did he feel alive again, his face held a ridiculous expression, torn between laughter and tears.

If someone told him a long time ago that he would give up the Raymond Corporation for a woman, he would have thought it was a joke.

The Raymond Corporation held great significance for him. It was the only proof that he was better than Eric.

The corporation's stock price had skyrocketed under his helm.

But in front of Maja, everything else seemed trivial.

All he wanted was Maja.

Just her.
