Maja's expression was icy as she faced him.
"It seems you've recognized them. Those guys are your crew. Yesterday at the mall, they tried to snatch my kid."
Alan's face turned even paler, attempting to speak and explain, but Maja didn't give him the chance.
A gun was now pressed against his forehead, his body shaking uncontrollably.
Though he had taken lives before, he had never felt as powerless as he did now.
The power that Maja wielded was beyond his imagination, having taken down his base in just one night. Killing him would be as easy as squashing a bug.
His face drained of color, but then he saw someone stop Maja from pulling the trigger.
Ian wrestled the gun out of her hand.
"The kid's watching. Let's set a good example. The Sanders family will handle her."
The Sanders family?
At the mention of those words, Alan felt as though he had been struck by lightning. Could it be the Sanders family of North America?
Yes, who else could afford such a luxurious house and dismantle his life overnight?
His mouth tasted of blood, filled with regret.
Soon, he was dragged away, but as he passed a certain spot, he saw Stella in the garden, nibbling on cookies.
Stella caught his eye, her eyebrows raised slightly, a smirk playing on her lips.
Alan felt a chill in his heart, suddenly fearing that all of this was her doing.
But Stella was hardly a significant figure within the Sanders family, more of an outsider.
The next moment, Alan's eyes narrowed as he overheard a member of the Sanders family speaking.
"Alan, next time you decide to mess with someone, maybe do a little research on who they are. Anna was dumb, but why follow in her footsteps?"
Alan's face flushed with rage, ready to lunge at them.
Stella, however, turned her attention back to her cookies, quietly enjoying her snack.
"You bitch! Stella, you bitch!"
From a distance, Stella could still hear Alan cursing her.
Too bad the soundproofing here was excellent; no one inside would know this had anything to do with her.
Just as she was about to smile, a girl sat down beside her.
The girl, looking adorable, reached for a cookie and started eating.
Stella's demeanor instantly turned sour, wondering how much the girl had overheard.
"Who are you?"
She had never seen this girl in the Sanders family. Who was she?

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....
