Right now, Maja was crawling around on the floor, looking for her ring. lan casually tossed it somewhere, and now it’s lost..

She tried lifting the sofa; she had already searched once, but still no luck.
Coco, the little rascal, was bouncing around by her side, hoping for a pat, but Maja didn’t have time for it.
She meticulously searched the floor, but still, no ring.
She’s feeling a bit down, and her eyes were welling up. She’s regretting wearing the ring tonight..
She searched till midnight; the small ring seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Maja’s mood got worse; she plopped down on the sofa feeling spaced out, thinking that she might not be able to sleep tonight if she can’t find the birthday present.
Suddenly, she heard Coco barking and spotted the ring stuck in the sofa crevice,
Her eyes lit up with the joy of finding something lost. |
Quickly, she picked up the ring and placed it in the box in her bedroom, along with an envelope and her notebook. She locked the box.
She finally breathed a sigh of relief, then remembered the fight she had with lan earlier.
She kicked him out.
But right now, she didn’t feel like apologizing to lan.
After all, he was the one who messed up.
This time, Maja didn’t back down; she decided to let it be.
After a week of silent treatment, Edith from the Raymond family returned.
Edith was on good terms with Selena, so when Edith returned, Selena picked her up. Ian didn’t go.
Neither did Holden.
Edith, dressed in a formal long dress, oozing the aura of a noble family, asked, “Where’s the woman lan married?” Selena poured her a cup of tea.
Edith took the cup and said, “It’s been three years; that boy lan is really patient; it’s surprising they haven’t divorced yet.” Selena humbly replied, “Mom, don’t worry about it. I’ve warned that woman not to harbor unrealistic hopes.”
Edith didn’t stay at the Raymond family’s old house, but at the Raymond Mansion, where Selena lived.
It seemed like Edith and Holden weren’t on good terms.
Edith scoffed: “Holden insisted on lan marrying that girl; I have no idea what bewitched him.”
Just as she finished her sentence, the doorbell rang. The servant opened the door, and in walked Carlene.
Carlene strode towards Edith with a big and small gift: “Edith, you’re finally back. I’ve missed you.”
Edith saw her and instantly warmed up.
“Oh, Carlene, let me see you; you’ve gotten even more beautiful.”
Carlene promptly brought out the gifts.
“Edith, this is a painting by Master Herbert. I know you love him.”
If Maja were here, she would know it’s a fake. But it’s a really good one; probably only Herbert himself and Maja could tell the difference.
Edith’s eyes light up, and she can’t help but stand up to inspect the painting.
“Carlene, you’re so thoughtful. I heard this painting was given to someone else by Herbert; I didn’t expect it to be in your hands.
Carlene’s mouth curled into a small smirk.
“I’ve been learning from Herbert for a long time; getting this painting wasn’t easy. But as long as you’re happy–it’s been so long, you look even younger.”
Edith chuckled and affectionately tapped Carlene on the forehead.
“You sweet talker, you haven’t changed. It’s a pity lan didn’t get to enjoy this.”
Upon hearing this, Carlene looked down, her eyes slightly moist.

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....
