Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 2138

Tyler guessed Athena wouldn't have the guts to hide another guy. After all, she seemed so into him, waking up early every day to cook for him at his villa.

But soon enough, he realized he shouldn't be fixating on whether Athena was seeing someone else.

Even if she was, so what? He was just having a bit of fun with her. It's not like he'd stop just because she had a boyfriend. No way. She had thrown herself at him, and until he was bored, he wasn't letting her go.

"I was going to borrow your laptop to tweak the script, but looks like I'll have to head back home."

Athena quickly offered, "You drank last night. Let me drive you back."

Getting pulled over by the cops would be a hassle, after all.

Tyler nodded, feeling not the least bit guilty about making her go out of her way. She was doing it willingly anyway.

After dropping him off, Athena took a cab back herself.

Tyler had barely settled into his couch and started editing a few lines when his phone rang.

"I heard from Bert that you've been keeping a lady hidden away. Who's the girl that made our Mr. Bennitt change his ways?"

Tyler knew Bert couldn't keep a secret, and had already exaggerated his situation with Athena.

But change his ways? Not a chance.

"I've never planned on changing my ways. Don't believe everything you hear."

"But Bert said you're totally smitten, eating her cooking every day. Do you need a chef at your villa or what?"

"That's because her cooking is genuinely good. If you have time, you should come over and try it."

His friend seemed intrigued but was more curious about Tyler's feelings for this woman.

"Sure thing. What's her name? I need to know who this culinary genius is."

"Athena, a small-time actress. You probably haven't heard of her."

There was a pause on the other end. "The name sounds kind of familiar."

Tyler chuckled dryly, "That's the same line you use every time you hit on a woman."

"Hey! I'm serious. The name rings a bell, just can't place it right now."

"Take your time to figure it out. I've got a script to work on, no time for idle chatter."

"Okay, one last question. Who is she to you? A housekeeper? A chef?"

A glint of disdain flashed in Tyler's eyes. "At best, she's just a sycophant."

"Tyler, I knew you were a player, but this is a new level. Impressive."

"Look who's talking. You've got your fair share too. But I have to admit, Athena's more dedicated than the rest."

If Athena could hear this conversation, she'd probably feel terrible. Luckily, she couldn't.
