Chapter 508
Maja had just been scared shitless, but she’d calmed down now, her voice a little hoare.
“Mr. Raymond, are you happy now?”
That sentence stirred up some deep feelings lan had been keeping locked away
He still had a tube of ointment in his hand. He looked up and asked, “What do you mean by that?”
“Mr. Raymond, isn’t this what you wanted? To see me embarrassed?” Her tone was cool again, and she had a faint smile on her face. “You got your wish.”
At that moment, she was curled up, her feet lightly arched, completely on guard
lan stood up, looking down at her from his high perch.
Only then did he notice that her neck was still a little red, as if she’d been scalded by something.
He’d wanted to blow up at her, but seeing her like this, his anger just evaporated.
lan tossed the ointment tube and said, “Take your medicine and get lost.”
Maja rose, got off the bed, picked up the ointment, and prepared to leave without a word.
As she got up, lan tensed up. Watching her put on her pants and straighten her jacket, he felt like his body was boiling, as if all the moisture inside him was being bumed away.
He abruptly pulled her back, reaching for the ointment to apply it to her.
But Maja misunderstood, thinking he was going to continue despite her injuries.
She’d finally had enough, and she slapped him.
All her strength was concentrated in her hand, knocking lan’s head to the side.
Blood trickled from the comer of his mouth, and the sound of the slap echoed through the room.
lan’s mind was buzzing he’d never been hit before, let alone by a woman.
He quietly wiped the blood from his mouth.
Asmear of red on his fingertips. He was bleeding.
Danger flashed in his eyes, he looked like a beast let out of its cage.
lan grabbed Maja but saw her shrink back, her eyes filled with a resigned determination,
But he could still see a hint of deep–seated terror and fear
Realizing she was afraid of him, his fingers tightened around the back of her collar, a tremor running through them.
If it were other woman, he would have thrown her out by now
But at that moment, seeing that deep–seated emotion in her eyes, he felt a pain not in his cheek but somewhere in his heart.
It felt like being rubbed with a blunt knife.
lan’s cheek was visibly swelling, even his mouth tasted of blood.
He let her go, his voice full of threats.
“You’re really asking for it.”
With that, he grabbed his jacket and left, slamming the door behind him.
Maja had thought he would continue tormenting her after saying that, but hearing the sound of the front door closing, she realized he had left.
He just left?
Maja frowned, but she didn’t have time to worry about lan now. She picked up the ointment and applied it to herself.
After applying the ointment, she swallowed a few pills. She had intended to leave immediately, after all, this was tan’s room.
To her, lan was no different than the grim reaper,
But Maja was really tired, so she fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed.
When lan left, he was still in his pajamas, just grabbing a jacket.
When he got to the first floor, he was still extremely agitated. He sat on the couch, smoking.

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....
