Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1120

After hanging up the phone, Ian snorted in derision, paying no mind to what had just happened.

Samuel smirked, "Since you've given up now, don't hinder Penny and me. Rest assured, once you and Judith are engaged, I'll definitely bring Penny along to congratulate you."

Hearing this, Ian found it laughable. How could Samuel presume to outdo Eric?

Lowering his eyelashes, he embarrassingly thought that perhaps he just didn't understand Maja. Maybe she just didn't prefer his type.

Perhaps when they were intimate before, all she could think about was Eric.

This realization made him uncomfortable all over, as if he were on fire.

He pulled out a check, wrote down $200,000 for Samuel, and tossed it directly onto the latter's face. Then, he got into his dented car and drove off.

Samuel stood in place, taking a while to process that he'd just been insulted with money.

He flipped off Ian's car.

Ian drove a few hundred meters away, making sure he was out of Samuel's sight, before he pulled over.

The air outside was hot, and even though the car was air-conditioned, he felt suffocated.

He leaned back, staring blankly ahead.

An hour later, his phone rang. It was Judith, asking where he was.

It was only then that he snapped back to reality, "I'll be there soon."

By the time he drove to the hospital, another half an hour had passed. He was more than an hour late for their agreed time.

Judith didn't dare show any displeasure, especially now that Maja was back.

But it didn't matter. She had a grand surprise planned at the restaurant.

Since Ian wouldn't make a decision, she would make it for him.

After today, Maja would be completely out of the picture!

Judith quietly sat in the back seat, wanting to say something to him to close the gap between them.

But Ian was acting too cold. Upon careful reflection, she found that it seemed he only showed other expressions when he was with Maja.

This realization nearly drove Judith mad.

She took a deep breath, forcing herself to stay calm. As long as she could get through this, Ian would be hers.

Once they arrived at the restaurant, she intentionally chose the main dining hall instead of a private room.
