Chapter 265
Maja was hit hard; it felt like she was dreaming.
Just over forty minutes ago, she was on the phone with Wyatt and is now hearing about his death.
The bar was quickly blocked off, but the bar’s surveillance equipment just happened to malfunction. On tape, you could only see Wyatt entering the lobby; all other footage was unviewable.
The cops did their thing, only to conclude that Wyatt drank himself to death. Murder’s off the table for now.
The hygiene situation in the bar was not great either. Thousands of fingerprints were mixed up in the private rooms with overlaps. Even if you were to check them individually, it would take time, plus many of the prints were blurred. Other than penalizing the bar for insufficient safety measures, there wasn’t much else to do.
Maja stood in the hospital corridor, unable to digest the news.
Wyatt’s relatives quickly arrived, and the corridor filled with the sound of crying.

Maja had been hanging around hospitals recently and was no stranger to the sound of sobbing.
She rubbed her temples; only Wyatt’s message remained on her phone. But she had already handed this message over to the police. The police said they would continue investigating, but Wyatt’s death was a fact.
Maja returned to the hotel, which was now sealed off, and all the guests still inside were persuaded to leave.
After the murder, it was all locked down.
But no one was investigated by the cops because the doc had already given an apparent cause of death: alcohol poisoning. From start to finish, it was only Wyatt in the private room. He had asked Maja to join him, but by the time he stopped breathing, Maja was still on the road.
Now it was midnight, Maja had repeatedly asked the bar owner about the surveillance situation, but the bar owner was also being questioned by the police and seemed very tense.
No answers were forthcoming.
A crowd was forming on the scene; Maja was helpless and could only walk away, planning to leave first.
Meanwhile, everyone also started leaving the bar where lan was.
Carlene had a few drinks and had been waiting for lan’s wife to show up, but she never did or even replied to any messages. Carlene was quite pleased and couldn’t help but say to lan, “Actually, I already told your wife to come pick you up, but she never showed. Ian, your wife seems to not care about you; I can now be with you without any burden.”
Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes sparkled as she looked at lan, as if she was about to kiss him any second.
The few people around them were egging them on.
Carlene raised her hand to wrap around lan’s neck, but lan turned to Dana, advising her, “Your car is outside; you guys can head out first.”
Dana didn’t expect lan to speak to her, and her cheeks immediately turned red.
But with Carlene there, she didn’t dare to make it too obvious, so she took hold of Carlene.
“Let’s go.”
Carlene wasn’t really drunk; she was just pretending to be. She grabbed lan, using a coquettish tone.
“lan, you really aren’t going to take me home?”

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....
