Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1816

“You don’t seem to be scared, Ms. Miller; looks like you’re aware of what you’ll face tonight, right?”

Her brow lifted, Carol exuded an air of nonchalance, and she even leaned back slightly

"Who sent you?"

"Who else but Mr. Brown? He said he's bored of you. Thinks it's our turn for a bit of fun."

"Is that so?" Carol's eyelashes fluttered down as if she were contemplating something.

Unable to restrain himself, the thug lunged at her.

With a swift roll, Carol dodged, but her head clipped the edge of a table, leaving her dazed.

The man grabbed her hair with a snarl, "You think you can fricking run from us?"

Just as he finished his threat, the door to the coffee shop was kicked off its hinges, and a few bodyguards rushed in.

Carol, hand pressed to her bleeding forehead, watched as the bodyguards swiftly subdued her attackers. While Carol grabbed a glass aside, shattered it on the floor and ferociously dragged a shard across her wrist.

Blood poured from the wound, panic etching into the bodyguards' faces.

"Ms. Miller?"

Carol stumbled toward the exit, her voice cool and detached, "Take these guys away and teach them some manners. I don't want Felix to suspect a thing."

"Understood."

Before Carol came there, she had messaged Ian.

She was no fool; knew better than to expect Felix to bring up the letter of understanding; whenever she broached the subject, he bristled with anger. How could he hand it over so easily?

So, she suspected the message was a trap, likely set by Listina, who was with Felix tonight after all.
