Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1249

At five in the morning, Maja was still quietly sitting on the couch.

She couldn't feel the passage of time, only the chill.

The chill was not from the environment, but from her heart, gradually creeping into her limbs, making her feel as if she was about to freeze.

Her ears were also throbbing with pain, and in the silence of the early morning, she finally heard a voice coming from the tiny earpiece.

"Regretting it yet?"

Those words made her body tense up.

Almost instinctively, she looked around, but she quickly realized.

"What do you want? I agreed. I agreed to everything."

Hours had passed, and she knew the man was waiting for her to break, to compromise.

Her head ached. Her heart had been racing all night, and at some point, she even felt like she was going to die.

"Maja, I told you my patience is limited. No more games like last night or there won't be a next time."

Maja remained silent, her eyes welling up with tears.

She thought the man would share his plans next, but he simply left her with that sentence and disappeared.

She called out a few times, but there was no response.

Until she heard noise from the stairs, it was Patric waking up.

He had the maid help her to the bathroom to freshen up and then had breakfast prepared for her.

She still had two hours until her meeting with Ian.

Patric was in no rush, seemingly enjoying watching Maja being led over.

Her eyes were indeed blind now. Those once beautiful eyes, full of life, were now empty.

It was a shame.

But it was for the best. It would prevent her from thinking about escaping.

Patric watched as she slowly ate the food in her bowl, a bit surprised. He had thought she would continue to make a fuss this morning, but she was particularly well-behaved at the moment.

After finishing her meal, Maja was forced to change her clothes.

Patric noticed the red mark on her earlobe. She didn't used to wear earrings. Was it a new piercing?

He didn't ask, just glanced at the time and escorted her to the car.

Maja sat in the backseat, feeling the car slowly starting, her heart pounding.

He slowly rolled down his suit sleeves, turning to look outside.

When the car stopped, Maja suddenly grabbed his hand.

"Eric, I can't see. Can you carry me up?"

Patric was a bit surprised. Why had she suddenly become so obedient?

He didn't refuse, bending down to pick her up, stepping into the private elevator.

Maja had lost a lot of weight, and when she nestled in his arms, she seemed rather petite.

When Patric emerged from the top-floor elevator, many people turned to look.

Because at five in the morning, Ian was already in the office waiting, sitting quietly in the small conference room.

The walls of the conference room were made of glass, everyone could see him waiting quietly inside.

Ian was still their CEO, and this was his first time appearing at the Raymond Corporation in recent times.

Now Eric was here, carrying a woman in his arms, but the woman was wearing a hat, no one knew who she was.

Patric carried Maja into the small conference room.

The conference room was about 200 square feet, and Ian was sitting on the far side.
