Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 1849
Envy's a waste of time, man.
"My household's more suffocating than a stint in the slammer. The eldest son just had a new baby boy and wants a bigger slice of the inheritance pie. Two weeks ago, they spiked my tea with something nasty. I nearly kicked the bucket, for real. If it wasn't for the butler catching on quick, you'd be playing chess with my ashes right now."
"Tell me about it. My youngest daughter's got a thing for this male model, blew three hundred grand on him. Now she's howling for me to bankroll his start-up. I mean, if he was a looker, maybe, but. Ugh, forget it. At least the Brown kid's got some decent genes."
"What's with your values, huh? A pretty face gives him the right to land his father-in-law in jail? If you ask me, he should be crawling on his knees from the Miller estate all the way here. We'll consider the matter closed once everyone's cooled off."
"Why should he crawl? His folks did get into trouble, after all. Kid's got it rough too."
As soon as the words were out, Abner whipped out a payment QR code from his side.
"Ten grand each, enough bickering. Cough it up."
The three of them fell silent, begrudgingly transferring the money.
Still, curiosity lingered.
"Abner, you really clueless about the Brown kid's ambitions? You've got a sharp eye; that's why we call you the 'old fox.'"
After pocketing the money, Abner was ready for another round of chess.
Everyone was curious, and at that moment, he spoke up.
"I'm aware. But I see some genuine interest in Carol from him. The lad’s got grit, took all the humiliation at the bottom rung without flinching. I knew right off he's meant for bigger things."
The others were instantly intrigued. "So, what then?"
"I did some digging into his past, found it tied to that old incident. Also stumbled upon a few suggestive texts my assistant sent him. That's when the Brown kid made his move."
"Assistant? You mean Manny, right?"
"Yeah, him. He's been harboring resentment for a while, hid it well. I never caught on."

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....
