Maja glanced at her watch as she climbed into the car, a habit ingrained over time.
"Dr. Herrington, is it really that late already? I thought only a minute had passed."
Turns out, two hours had slipped by.
Phelps gestured for her to buckle up.
"You need to get some proper rest, Maja. After we meet with Dylan, try to catch some more sleep."
Without another word, he pulled out his phone and called Augus.
"Mr. Sanders, I've come across some information regarding your daughter. But as you know, your eldest son is fiercely loyal to Judith. I would like to arrange a meeting with both you and Dylan. I've already reached out to Dylan as well. It would be best if you came over now. Otherwise, I fear he may take his revenge on me later."
Augus narrowed his eyes. It had only been a few hours since he last saw Phelps.
Back then, Phelps claimed he had no leads. Now, this sudden call.
Once the call ended, Augus frowned and looked up to see Dylan descending the staircase, his expression sour.
Augus broke the silence. "Who gave you the right to threaten Ian with the Sanders name?"
"Father, Ian wronged Judith, and as her brother, it's only right that I avenge her. Judith's eyes and voice have only just started to recover, and her heart still yearns for Ian. Shouldn't he pay for being the cause of her suffering?"
"I heard it was Judith who first went after Ian's people."
Dylan's face was a mask of cold fury. "That's what Maja gets."
His words had barely landed when Judith began to descend the stairs slowly.
She had been confined to her room lately, never venturing downstairs, her days marred by tears.
That very morning, her sight had returned, and her voice had improved enough to speak.
But before she could rejoice, her brother had received a call from Phelps, requesting a meeting.
Judith had received an anonymous text claiming Augus had enlisted Phelps' help in Greenfield to find the Sanders family's biological daughter.
She had long since realized her father was unreliable, so her focus was to cling to her mother and brother's unconditional adoration. As long as they doted on her, she would never be cast out of the Sanders household.
Phelps' call to her brother must be about Maja.
Had Phelps discovered that Maja was the true Sanders heir?
Anger surged through her.
She didn't want her brother meeting Phelps, but now, faced with her father, she had no choice but to greet him.

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....
