Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 2106

Stella lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, when she heard the commotion outside. The clock blinked 3:00 AM.

Suddenly, Dave burst into her room, yanking her out of bed. "The Moore family has found us! We can't stay any longer. We need to get to the airport now. By 8 AM, we'll be on a flight, and we won't be setting foot in North America for at least six months."

Groggy but alert, Stella quickly got ready. Before leaving, she sent a message to Beck.

"Beck, 7 AM, JFK Airport. Can we meet one last time?"

She hesitated on the last words, feeling a bit vulnerable, but she sent it anyway.

Beck had been getting up early lately. Last night, he hadn’t slept at all. When Stella’s message came through, he glanced at it briefly, set his phone aside, and headed to the bathroom.

After freshening up, he decided to go for a swim, indulging in the solitude of the early morning. Half an hour later, as he toweled off, a housekeeper approached.

"Sir, you’ve had three missed calls."

Beck glanced at the time; it was almost 7 AM. The missed calls were from Stella. He hadn’t reached out to her in over a year.

His phone buzzed again. He answered it reluctantly.

"Are you not coming?" Stella’s voice was soft, almost pleading.

Beck rubbed the towel over his dripping hair. "There's nothing left to say between us."

Stella gripped her phone tightly, her voice barely above a whisper when she spoke again. "When did you wake up last night? Did you know I'd drugged you?"
