Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1424

Dylan was still poring over the piece of paper as if he couldn't make head nor tail of the scrawled words.

But he heard every word Beck uttered, each one stinging his eardrums, leaving him with no grounds for rebuttal.

This was a paternity test Beck had worked on overnight, the results of which he guarded closely, leaving no room for deceit.

Maja was the lost little princess of the Sanders clan, his own flesh and blood sister.

Dylan's fingers tightened around the paper, as if trying to imprint the words into his skin.

His eyes stung, his mind a fog of disbelief.

Beck took a deep breath, his voice growing hoarser.

"If you're still going to coddle Judith as she wreaks havoc, then I've got nothing to say. This is our comeuppance. We knew well enough that Maja and Ian were an item, yet we let Judith interfere. Who would've thought Maja was our true sister? Dylan, isn't this some twisted irony?"

Beck couldn't help but find it absurd. Since last night, his defenses had been breached time and time again.

The shenanigans they got up to back in Greenfield were dumb enough, but Dylan continued his mad ways in North America, obsessing over Maja.

Had they arrived even a moment later the previous night, Dylan would have sent his own sister to sleep with the fishes, forever at the bottom of the river.

And all for what? A phony.

Beck inhaled sharply and dialed Judith's number.

Judith hesitated at the sight of his incoming call but answered after a few seconds.

Beck cut to the chase.

"Judith, what kind of love potion have you fed my big brother? He's totally under your spell."

Judith was still in the dark about how much Beck knew regarding Maja's identity, so she treaded carefully.

"Beck, I thought you were calling to apologize for that kick last night. You nearly killed me. Don't you feel the slightest guilt? After all, you've doted on me for years."

"Judith, I've uncovered Maja's true identity, but Dylan is adamant about bringing you back home."

Judith's defenses crumbled at that statement, but the next sentence sent her soaring with excitement!
