Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1255

He stepped out of the bedroom, instructing the maid standing by.

"Clean up the bathroom, and prepare a room for her. Assign someone to take care of her, ensure she gets three meals a day, but don't let her leave the room."

"Yes, sir."

Patric walked downstairs without sparing another glance at the quietly seated Maja.

Maja heard his footsteps, but she didn't ask where he was going.

They were like strangers living under the same roof.

She was not even afraid of death. What more could she fear now?

Ian remained the CEO of the Raymond Corporation. He wouldn't fall so easily, which was a relief.

A small smile tugged at the corners of her lips, then her eyes stung. Today had been too heartbreaking, she had shed too many tears.

When one was heartbroken and blind, time became unbearably long.

So, when she was helped into a room, she asked the maid.

"Could you arrange for a TV in my room? I need to hear some sounds."

Otherwise, this would be no different from solitary confinement.

The maid looked a little uneasy.

"I'll have to ask the sir about that."

Maja nodded, groping her way to the bed, and didn't speak anymore.

At two in the afternoon.

There was still a man sleeping in a bed at Greenfield Gardens. The furrowed brow of the man indicated he was having a nightmare.

Ian woke up from the nightmare in an instant.

Throughout the two weeks that Maja had been missing, he had barely slept. Every time he closed his eyes, he'd have nightmares of Maja dying quietly in an unknown place, of him not getting to see her one last time.

The despair in his dreams was unbearable, but waking up to reality was even more so.

"I have some matters to attend to at the Raymond Corporation."

Tyler quickly asked.

"At this hour? You're not planning to sign some share transfer contract with Eric, are you? He's clearly using Maja to get at you. If you sign that, it would be utter stupidity. Maja herself said she looks down on you. She's only mocking you. She won't be moved."

Ian thought he wouldn't hurt anymore, but hearing this, he felt as though his heart had been stabbed.

"I haven't been to the Raymond Corporation lately. There's a lot of work piled up. I won't sign any transfer contract, once is enough."

Tyler sighed in relief.

"It's good that you've come to your senses. Think about it, Maja's just a bit prettier, what makes her worth all this trouble? If you're feeling down, come have a drink with us. There are a lot of new faces at the BlueSky Bar. Do you want me to show you around?"

Previously, Ian wasn't into such things. He found them distasteful.

But now, he simply laughed, as if he had finally let go.

"Sure."
