Chapter 173
The car’s horn honked twice, and the lights came on.
Jeff sat back into the car, casually rolling down the window.
“Also, Mr. Pennyfeather no longer has to call Holden. Holden’s unwell, and if anything goes sideways, the Pennyfeather family would be held responsible.”
If it was all about emphasizing status just now, then it’s already a warning, warning for the Pennyfeathers not to meddle too much.
Neil was so pissed off that he didn’t know how to react. His fingers started trembling.
On the other hand, Tricia rushed forth, her face flushed with excitement.
“Mr. Raymond.”
She peered through the glass window, her face full of infatuation.
Despite lan’s clear disdain for them, Tricia seemed oblivious to his attitude. She just hoped that lan would pay attention to her.
She believed that if she showed off her charm in front of him more, lan would eventually fall for her,
“Mr. Raymond, please don’t be upset. We didn’t consider things thoroughly this time.”
Her voice was gentle, her cheeks a bit rosy.
Her body was naturally frail, and her current demeanor made people want to take care of her.
lan frowned. Although she was a Pennyfeather, she clearly didn’t care about their family’s dignity.
Neil, who was standing nearby, wasn’t a fool. He thought his daughter was being overly enthusiastic about lan.
Tricia’s behavior was hugely embarrassing for him. She had no idea how to behave in such a situation.
Neil was fuming and he was so angry he couldn’t speak.
Tricia wanted to say more, but she felt someone tugging at her sleeve.
She turned to see Cristina.
Cristina shook her head slightly, signaling to Tricia that if she continued, she’d only annoy Neil more and she should stop talking
to lan.
Reluctantly, Tricia closed her mouth, but she couldn’t take her eyes off the car.
lan didn’t bother looking at her. He simply told Jeff, “Let’s hit the road.”
Jeff nodded and stepped on the gas.
The car slowly pulled away, leaving the Pennyfeathers standing still in their tracks.
The first to break the silence was Cristina..
“Honey, if it weren’t for Maja Pennyfeather, we wouldn’t be in this awkward position. Remember what Selena Casson said last time? Now, with lan’s attitude, it seems that only Holden in the Raymond family likes Maja.”
As Cristina spoke, her eyes never left her daughter.
Tricia’s cheeks were flushed with excitement, aware that her intentions were now known.,
But that’s okay, her Mom would help her.
“Honey, we need to come up with a plan. lan has someone he likes. He was quite close to that person from the Shepard family. She looks a lot like Tricia. If lan doesn’t like Maja, should we let Tricia give it a shot?”
The purpose of her words was clear to create an opportunity for Tricia.
Neil was utterly shocked, seemingly unable to believe what Cristina had just proposed.
What was Cristina implying? Maja wasn’t even divorced yet, and she was creating an opportunity for lan to cheat?!
“What are you blabbering about?!”
Neil was already angry, and now he felt a pain in his chest.
“As long as Maja’s not divorced, she and lan are a couple! If you understand what I’m saying, don’t do anything stupid.”
With that, he stormed off into the mansion.

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....
