Maja rolled out of bed, her feet sinking into the plush carpet beneath her. She pushed open the bedroom door, only to find the hallway occupied.
There stood three men.
Flanked by Fitch and Tyler, Beck looked a tad uneasy.
"I've been searching non-stop. How would I know?"
"What do you mean you don't know? Jesus, Beck, you got beef with Ian or something? You want to pick a new beau for your sis? I remember you two brawling once. You've had it in for him all along, haven't you?"
Beck's face darkened with anger. "Tyler."
His eyes caught Maja as she emerged, and he quickly lowered his voice, "Maja has been on edge lately. Let's not rile her up with this talk, okay?"
Tyler instantly raised his hands in surrender, signaling his lips were sealed.
Maja managed a faint smile, and her mood seemed stable.
They moved to the living room, and her gaze lingered on Fitch.
Fitch had a vibe similar to Dylan's but he was colder and more rigid. Even with his own sister Mia, he rarely smiles. Yet Dylan had always been attentive and caring, even towards the phony of the Sanders family.
"Fitch, how's Zoey been?"
Fitch went abroad mainly to avoid some trouble, but even here, he couldn't escape the mention of Zoey.
He didn't respond, his eyes fixed on the coffee on the table.
Tyler jumped in hastily, "She's great. Your company's been killing it lately. I bet you missed the live-stream. Cornelia and Shawn nabbed awards. Wilma took home the newcomer prize. You guys swept the acting categories. The endorsement deals must be rolling in. Zoey's probably swamped."
Maja let out a noncommittal "Oh."
Suddenly remembering that the Bennitt family had crossed Maja before, and Wendy was someone she had taken down herself, Tyler laughed awkwardly.
"Come on, you're about to be a mom and still holding grudges? I had nothing to do with the Bennitts' deeds."
Did Maja not know Tyler's nature? He loved chaos, and lived for the drama, all for the so-called inspiration for his scripts.
When she was with Ian, Tyler had never missed a chance to stir the pot.

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....
