In the midst of the clamor, this question was deafening.
Maja did not have the strength to speak, and she merely stared in the direction where Ian had disappeared.
But there was no one there anymore.
She lowered her eyelashes, feeling a dampness on her face. Of course, it was only natural for him to despise her now.
In his eyes, she had a hand in Grandpa Holden's death, and she was the one who had thrown out the box containing a venomous snake.
He had misunderstood her, and his unusual behavior towards Judith was because she had drugged him.
It must be so, and it wasn't that he wanted to abandon her.
She had to go back, go back to his side.
Grandpa Holden had just passed away and now was the time he needed someone by his side.
Due to her resolute gaze, Patric could tell at first glance what she had chosen.
He sneered, gripping her chin tightly.
"I thought witnessing this scene would move you, but it seems you won't stop until you hit a wall, Maja. How cheap can you be? He doesn't even care about you anymore, yet you're rushing towards him. Would your dead mother be proud of this? How shameful!"
After Patric finished speaking, he dragged her away, leading her down a different alleyway.
Not long after he left, Ian returned.
He didn't know why he had returned, but amidst the chaotic and filthy smells, he sensed a familiar scent.
A familiarity that was etched deep into his soul.
He navigated through the dance floor, beginning to search one by one.
After about a dozen searches, Judith tugged at his clothes from behind.
"Ian, what are you looking for?”
Ian snapped back to reality as if waking from a dream.
He had heard from Jeff that Maja was in this area, but Jeff didn't ask if he wanted to find Maja, and Ian didn't say anything.
In his mind, he was the one being abandoned and deceived. If he went looking for her again, what would that make him?
He had never stooped so low before.
But seeing himself so stubbornly searching one by one, he found it amusing, yet his chest began to churn.
He just couldn't accept it.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
