Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 2052

"The bathroom's still there, I just got an upset stomach, heading home early."

The nerve of this little con artist, lying through her teeth without as much as a blink.

"Stella, you really think I'm a fool?"

"Beck, why would you say that about yourself?"

Beck choked on his words, struggling for breath.

It was always him leaving others speechless.

He adjusted his tie and took a deep breath.

"You know where I live, right? Catch a cab over."

Stella propped her chin on one hand, squinting her eyes, "Beck, it's 10 PM, might be a bit inconvenient."

"Is it inconvenient, or are you scared?"

Stella let out a sigh, seemingly conceding.

"Alright, I'll come over."

Her prompt agreement caught Beck off guard, making him wonder if she had another trick up her sleeve.

But he wasn't scared of this woman.

Wasn't it all just for that one percent share of the Sanders family? Better to get her out of his hair sooner rather than later.

He returned to his mansion, gently wiping the bruise at the corner of his mouth, growing angrier by the minute.

By midnight, two hours later, Stella still hadn't shown up.

At 1 AM, Beck's face was as dark as thunder.

He called Stella again, who seemed to have just woken up.

"Beck, what's up?"

Beck barely managed to restrain himself from cursing out loud.

"Even if you were riding a tractor, you should've been here by now."

Stella yawned, rubbing her eyes.

"Beck, I said I'd come over, but I never said when. I was planning to come over in the morning, maybe have breakfast at your place. I remember you have a personal chef."
