Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1585

Zoey had a sinking feeling she knew who she had crossed, and in this high-stakes game of social chess, there was only one queen capable of such cunning moves—Wendy.

Sure, Mia wasn't exactly Zoey'S BFF, but Mia’s moves were always overt, all cards on the table. Only in Wendy's presence did the tactics turn so underhanded they made your skin crawl. And this time, the situation had gone too far.

But what could Zoey do? She was a nobody, with no evidence to back her up. From now on, she'd have to keep her head down and steer clear of Wendy whenever possible.

Zoey felt a wave of helplessness wash over her. Anything connected to Fitch left her drained.

Unbeknownst to her, Wendy was dealing with her own set of problems.

Wendy had been hospitalized for two days, during which she heard that Belinda had been arrested.

Belinda was adamant in her defense, claiming that Zoey had instructed her to poison Wendy, jealous that another woman was getting too close to Fitch.

The news infuriated the Bennitt family. They made a few calls to the police department, ensuring Belinda would regret her actions.

They also harbored a growing resentment towards Zoey, the alleged puppeteer behind it all, and plotted to make a move against Star Movie Group.

That was when Tyler stepped in.

Tyler hadn't set foot in the Bennitt family estate for years, but a single phone call was all it took.

"If you think you can take her down, go ahead," he taunted, knowing full well the repercussions if Ian and Maja caught wind of it.

In Greenfield, Ian was the last person you wanted to mess with. He might have been a fugitive, but his return could be as triumphant as a prodigal son's. His tactics in business were as effortless as snapping a biscuit in half, unpredictable and ruthless.

He once stirred up a storm for a woman like Maja, who came from nothing. What was to stop him now?

With rumors circulating that Ian was sheltering Star Movie Group, nobody dared make a move.

But Zoey was fair game. Tyler didn't intervene, simply saying, "Do as you please."

He was curious to see if Fitch would allow the Bennitts to harm Zoey.

He knew his cousin all too well; she was a firecracker. And if this incident was her doing, it wouldn't be the first time.
