Chapter 352
Maja was taken aback, rooted to the spot. If she didn’t already know that Coco was at Rosewood Manor, she might’ve totally bought his act. Why on earth would lan hold a dog hostage?
With a helpless laugh, she quickly caught up to him.
“Mr. Raymond, my Coco really is missing. You might not be mistaken. Where did you see it? I’ll go look.”
Ian stopped in his tracks. He was dressed in a sharp black suit and crisp white shirt, and his jawline tensed slightly. His voice was cool and clear.
“You and your husband should go look together. You might still find it.”
Maja was speechless, her steps faltering.
lan had already reached the elevator by now. Maja had no choice but to follow.
“Mr. Raymond, my husband is really busy.”
Her voice was filled with helplessness.
lan’s gaze was icy and emotionless as he said, “Then wait until he has time to help you look. Penny, I have a meeting in five minutes. Don’t come to me if it’s not about the renovation.”
The elevator doors opened, and lan stepped in.
It was a private elevator. There was no one else around.
Maja stood at the entrance, watching as the elevator doors closed.
Then she started mulling over why lan would hold Coco hostage.
But no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t find a reasonable explanation.
In the end/she could only take out her phone and send a text to Maria.
“Maria, Coco will be staying there for the time being. But don’t let Mr. Raymond know that she’s a dog from Rosewood Manor. Just go along with what Mr Raymond says.”
Maria has been working at Rosewood Manor for so many years that she immediately understood the subtext and responded immediately, “Don’t worry Ms. Pennyfeather.”
Maja trusted her. On the one hand, she had to act like she was desperately looking for Coco. Otherwise, lan might find her behavior suspicious, suspecting she knew Coco was safe.
She posted a notice on her Facebook page with two pictures of Coco.
The account was mainly for work, filled with clients who owned villas. It didn’t take long before the post had over ten comments, with people offering to share it.
Among these villa owners, some were connected to Ryan Elston. So, Ryan found out about Maja’s post from someone else’s Facebook.
Connie Raymond also saw the post and immediately forwarded the news to lan.
“Penny’s dog is missing. Can’t you use your influence to help her look? She even added a pitiful emoji.”
Connie really liked Maja, and given that she’d walked in on Penny and lan once, she subconsciously felt that Maja, was special to lan.
Even if they were just friends with benefits, things were different.
lan stared at the message, not responding.
Connie sent another message.
“Coco is already old, and Penny must consider her part of the family. She must be really worried. There’s barely anything on her Facebook, just this post.”
Connie also adored Coco. She hoped lan would quickly use the resources of the Raymond family to find the dog.

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....
