Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1514

If he made one wrong move, the next bullet wouldn't whiz by—it would hit home.

With a slight arch of his brow, Ian scanned the horizon.

But all he could see was the sandy beach not far beneath his feet and the relentless stretch of ocean—everything else was a blur.

He had no clue where the shooter was hiding, but the situation reeked of a sniper's handiwork.

And not just one—only a team could cover their angles so tightly.

The thrumming of helicopter blades began to fill the air. It looked like they wanted to negotiate.

Ian stood his ground, then heard K's voice cut through the noise.

"Leave Maja behind."

It wasn't really K's play. After stirring up so much trouble, he wanted Maja and Ian to be trapped there forever.

This trip had been fraught with too many twists, and Ian was done playing cat and mouse. He couldn't afford any more complications.

But someone wanted Maja alive and by their side.

Since K had chosen to collaborate, he had to keep his word.

After all, Maja's life wouldn't be a bed of roses once she was with them.

As for Ian, his fate was sealed to die tonight.

If Ian died, it was one less problem for K.

Having figured out the crux of it all, K stood impassively in the chopper.

The chopper's roar was too loud, drawing a lot of attention, especially following a round of gunfire.

Maja, held tight in Ian's arms, didn't need to think hard to guess K's intentions.

"Ian, he wants you to stay," she murmured.

"Yeah."

Ian wasn't dumb, and he pulled her closer.

Maja's cheek pressed against his chest, "If you hand me over, I'm as good as dead. He wants me alive, though I've got no clue why."
