Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1250

The moment Patric stepped into the office, all eyes on the top floor were drawn to the meeting room.

It was a transparent meeting room, leaving its occupants fully visible for all to see.

This was a requirement of Patric's. He insisted that the transaction take place in this room, even going so far as to bring in two lawyers.

The top brass of the Raymond Corporation vaguely understood that from today onward, the company seemed to be headed for a change of tides. They found it hard to focus on their work, their attention frequently drifting towards the meeting room.

Ian sat in his chair, standing up almost instantly as he saw Maja being brought in.

He had just wanted to stride over to Patric, to take Maja back into his arms, but he heard her voice.

"Eric, I'm feeling a bit tired. Can I sleep in your arms?"

Patric, unaware of what Maja was planning, inexplicably did not refuse.

He held her in his arms, sitting across from Ian with a gentle smile that was uniquely Eric's.

"Ian, can we start signing the contract now?"

Ian didn't respond, his eyes fixed firmly on Maja.

Maja's head was buried in Patric's chest, not looking at Ian.

Ian's chest was heaving, but he still croaked, "Without seeing her face, how can I tell if she really is Maja?"

Hearing his voice, tinged with exhaustion, Maja felt a heartache.

"I need to see her face. Maybe you've just found a random woman to fool me. There's no way Maja would sit in your arms in front of me."

So, this woman must be a fake, possibly surgically altered to look like Maja.

Patric found the whole situation amusing, whispering in Maja's ear, "There's no other way. Just close your eyes and sleep."

Then he removed her hat and turned her face towards Ian.

Maja's eyes were closed, and her chin was held up, facing Ian.

That face, Ian would recognize it even in ashes.

This was Maja, with no sign of plastic surgery, even her scent was something he could detect.
