Chapter 502
“Grandma Edith, I figure you don’t want me around so I just head off now.”
Edith was so angry she nearly passed out, pointing at Maja with trembling fingers.
But Maja was already out of her sight.
The next thing Edith knew, she was shipped off to the hospital
As Maja drove away from Raymond Mansion, she looked at the check in her hand and felt a weight being lifted from her shoulders.
Her neck was still sore but she couldn’t care less.
She pulled up at a second hand luxury goods market.
When the shopkeeper saw the bracelet on Maja’s wrist, he couldn’t help but adjust his glasses several times, and his voice was full of uncertainty,
“You sure you want to part with this?”
Maja nodded.
The shopkeeper quickly mopped his brow
“Miss, this piece is very valuable. Our boss is in today, let me go discuss it with him. Please wait here”
Maja was led to a waiting room by two assistants.
The shopkeeper carefully took the bracelet and went straight to the second floor.
“Mr. Haskins, a lady wants to sell this. It’s a new piece from the last jewelry exhibition, sold from an unknown counter. There’s only one in the world, and because of the high price, I wanted to check with you”
The man sitting in the chair was none other than Fitch.
Fitch disassembled the gun deftly in his hands. That large second hand market was very lucrative. All sorts of things could be traded there, luxury goods on the surface, but also weapons were available, which was known only to insiders.
Fitch glanced at the bracelet and asked, “Is it legit?”
The shopkeeper nodded, “I personally checked it, it’s real.”
“How much is it worth?”
“Counter price is about 20 million, but we can only go up to 15 million here.”
Rare items always fetched high prices
“Keep it.”
The shopkeeper carefully placed the bracelet aside.
Fitch didn’t look up and continued working on his gun.
The shopkeeper returned to Maja
“Miss, our highest offer can only be 15 million”
Maja thought she heard wrong. “How much?”
The shopkeeper thought she was dissatisfied with the price, so he hastily explained,
“This is a second–hand market after all, once luxury items leave the counter, their value drops significantly. If you don’t agree, we can have a discussion.”
Maja got up
The shopkeeper thought she really didn’t agree. But then he heard her say, “Why wouldn’t I agree? Sell it, just sell the item!”
She sounded almost impatient

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....
