Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1015

Ian was capable of such deeds, indeed.

Fitch turned his head away, making a casual remark.

"Love is blinding, mate, and it'll make you lose your true self."

He'd never been in love; women were good for a romp in the hay, but they should never be treated as precious gems.

On this matter, he and Tyler were in agreement. Tyler, however, treated his partners as equals, always the gentleman, even in the bedroom.

On the other hand, Fitch despised women who were helpless and good for nothing but bed-warming.

Ian paid him no mind and took a few more minutes before replying to Maja's message,

[Sure, hit the hay. I'll come find you when I'm done here.]

Maja's lips curled up slightly at his message, but her smile faded as she caught sight of her reflection in the rearview mirror.

The ambiguity of their relationship was intoxicating.

Ian felt a sweetness he'd never experienced before.

He placed his phone next to him, stealing glances at it every now and then, hoping for a new message from Maja.

Fitch, however, furrowed his brows at this moment.

"Holden's signal has suddenly appeared in another country, far from North America. Are we being played?"

How could he have moved so fast?

Ian sat up straight, putting his phone away.

"There must be a top-notch hacker over there, Fitch. You should head back."

Fitch had been spotted; lingering here would raise suspicion, and the Haskins family would end up under surveillance.

Fitch stood up, tapping the documents in his hands on the table.

"I'll head back then. I'm starting to think these signals are a decoy to draw us out. Does Eric have information about the chip?"

Fitch had been keeping a close watch on the chip situation back home.

Ian's eyebrows arched slightly, a faint smile curling up at the corners of his mouth.

"I'll have my people check out where the signal appeared, but I think you're right. He must have information about the chip. That's why he lured us out of the country. Grandpa probably isn't with him. He's managed to hide for so many years without being discovered, and he must have his own forces. I'll go back with you."

As Ian spoke, his face became serious.

The unknown was always the most alarming.

Especially when the unknown was Eric, once the apple of everyone's eye.
