Chapter 298
That night, Maja slept like a baby and woke up feeling refreshed.
The first thing she did was grab her phone. There was a missed call from lan from his private number. Maja frowned.
“Did Holden give him a hard time again?” she wondered.
She sent him a text while she was brushing her teeth and getting ready for the day.
“Anything up?”
By then, lan had already arrived at the Raymond Corporation.
Seeing her casual text rubbed him the wrong way. But he wasn’t about to lose his cool over a woman. So he deleted the message.
If Holden had let it go, he saw no reason to keep in touch with her.
Maja didn’t expect lan to reply anyway. After all, she had used her private number. He probably only called out of respect for Holden.
After freshening up, she immediately called Holden to check on him.
To her surprise, Holden saw her as a poor, heartbroken woman neglected by her husband.
“Maja, rest assured, I’m always on your side. If anything like this happens again, let me know. I’ll make lan apologize to you.”
lan had always been independent, growing up under Holden’s wing, so he greatly respected him.
That was why he had agreed to get married when Holden asked him to, all for the sake of his health.
“As for Carlene, don’t worry about her. I won’t let her marry lan. Even without you, she wouldn’t stand a chance.”
So Carlene was out of the picture in Holden’s eyes.
Maja’s eyes welled up with tears as she listened to Holden’s comforting words.
“Holden, thank you.”
A smile spread across Holden’s face, dissipating his irritation from the night before.
“You don’t need to thank me. Rosewood Manor is your wedding gift from me. Only you can decide who’s allowed in. Even lan ha’s no right to stay if you want him out. Your name is on the deed
So, when she got married, Holden gave her the house.
Maja knew it was a wedding gift from Holden to her and lan, but she didn’t know the deed was in her name.
“And I arranged for the deed before you got your marriage certificate. So Rosewood Manor is your premarital property.”
Holden’s words warmed her heart. She feared her voice would crack with emotion if she went on.
She felt that apart from her mother, Holden and Herbert were the kindest people she knew.
After hanging up, she had a peaceful morning. She leisurely made breakfast, and after eating, she went to the hospital.
The Shepard family.
Ever since Carlene returned from Rosewood Manor, she had been throwing a tantrum in her room.
The thought of Holden’s humiliation made her see red.
It was infuriating!
What was so great about that ugly woman that Holden would humiliate Carlene for her?

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....
