Chapter 373
The maid was a bit lost for words, not knowing what to say, so she decided to make some coffee.
Ferris came in today with his two sons, one 24 and the other 22. Both were of marriageable age, but Ferris was under a lot of financial pressure, unable to afford two houses.
The older son had a girlfriend, but when she found out they couldn’t afford a house, she decided to call it quits.
Nobody wants to squeeze into a tiny house with them, especially since they have two sons who aren’t keen on renting because of the steep cost.
So, all six of them lived in Ferris’s little house.
Ferris’s wife had never had a job, and she hadn’t looked for one in years.
Ferris was extremely unhappy about this and often berated her. If things at work didn’t go well, he would take it out on her when he got home.
Everyone saw it, but nobody stopped it because it was become the norm.
A woman taking care of two kids and two elderly people barely gets a day’s rest.
But everyone thinks the man who works outside and earns money is the main pillar of the family, the hardest–working one. They think the woman who stays at home and takes care of the kids and the elderly has it easy.
So, the wife has become an outlet for everyone’s frustrations at home.
Hattie took it out on her when she’s in a bad mood.
The two sons did the same when they were feeling down.
And Ferris himself is always laying hands on her.
Today, Ferris only brought his two sons, his pride and joy. As for his wife, she had become haggard. It was not dignified to bring her out.
The Pennyfeather family’s mansion was so luxurious, leaving everyone speechless.
Ferris secretly vowed to live here, divorce his wife, and find a younger, prettier woman. Why would he need his old wife once he’s moved into the mansion?
Ferris was daydreaming when Maja and a few bodyguards walked in..
Ferris quickly stood up.
“Is that Maja? You have grown so tall! By the way, did you meet the guy we set you up with? His family owns a small factory, he’s good enough for you.”
Hattie chimed in.
“Yeah, that young man is quite handsome. Although he’s made mistakes in the past, he’s changed now. All men make mistakes.”
“Maja, you’re in your twenties now. Around here, girls your age already have kids. If you wait a few more years, till you’re thirty, who would want you then? Men are like wine, they get better with age. Women are like flowers, they lose value over time. In the end, they’re just discarded.”
Maja wanted to laugh at these words.
What kind of mindset is this?
Upon seeing Maja’s lack of rebuttal, Ferris assumed she agreed and breathed a sigh of relief..

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....
