Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 540

Chapter 540 

lan’s eyes suddenly turned icy, sharp as a knife. 

Carlene didn’t dare to say more, left him to go back to his seat.” 

Once he was gone, she started to speak. 

“You’re married to lan, but I bet he hasn’t even regarded you as his wife yet, has he? 

Maja didn’t answer. Hidden under the brim of her hat, Carlene couldn’t read her expression, and could only guess she was probably heartbroken. 

“I forgot to tell you, I’m carrying his child.” 

At that, Maja’s eyelashes fluttered slightly. Zoey 

xt to her gasped in surprise, her gaze landing on Carlene’s belly. 

Carlene patted her stomach and said, “You may be married to him, but you’ve never been together, let alone carrying his child. He told me he feels uncomfortable around you and wants to divorce as soon as possible.” 

As soon as she finished, Maja burst out laughing. 

Carlene’s face immediately turned grim. 

“What are you laughing at?” 

Why wasn’t she angry? Did Maja not believe her? 

She was about to say something when the host came on stage. She had to return to her seat. 

Just as she was about to leave, Maja spoke in a low belly?” 

That hit Carlene hard, “You bitch…” 

She raised her voice, but then suddenly fell silent. 

voice, “Mr. Raymond said he’s only been with one woman. I wonder if it’s you? If not, whose baby is it in your 

There were media around, so she couldn’t lose her cool. 

She took a deep breath, gave Maja a cold look, “Just keep watching how your husband is going to help me.” 

After she left, Zoey murmured, “Disgusting couple.” 

Maja found it amusing, and asked, “Zoey, do you have a boyfriend?” 

Zoey nodded, “We’ve been together for seven years.” 

The two chatted for a while before the host started speaking.” 

The starting price: eighty million dollars. 

The folks at the EverBest Group quickly raised their bidding cards. 

Then other companies followed suit, pushing the price up to one hundred million dollars. 

This was still offered by the EverBest Group. They seemed desperate for the land. 

Carlene sneered when she saw Maja hadn’t bid once. 

But then, Maja raised her card, showing one hundred and twenty million dollars. 

And after she raised her card, she didn’t even look at Carlene, as if in response to her provocation. 

Carlene was seething. She wanted to bid again, but the company’s executives stopped her. 

“Ms. Shepard, one hundred and twenty million dollars is our final offer.” 

Any more, and it would be too much pressure for them. 

But Carlene couldn’t accept that, and raised the bidding card anyway. 

The host announced, “the EverBest Group, one hundred and thirty million dollars.” 

Maja casually raised her card again, while Zoey next to her was already on edge. 

She knew the Neilian Group didn’t have the resources or enough money. Maja was just trying to drive up the price. 

Carlene took a deep breath, disregarding the executives‘ objections, and bid one hundred and sixty million dollars 

“the EverBest Group, one hundred and sixty million dollars.” 

“the Neilian Group, one hundred and seventy million dollars.” 

and eighty m “the EverBest Group, one hundred and eighty million dollars.” 

The host kept announcing the price, watching the two women compete. 

One hundred and eighty million dollars was sixty million over the EverBest Group’s budget. 

At that point, lan pointed out, “She’s driving up your price.” 

Carlene seemed to wake up to that. She had gotten carried away with the bidding. 

But the EverBest Group’s budget was one hundred and twenty million dollars. They usually wouldn’t buy if it went over. 

But she had already bid one hundred and eighty million dollars. Now she was hoping Maja would bid one more time so she could back down. 

Carlene suddenly felt nervous, “lan, will I lose money if I buy this land for one hundred and eighty million dollars?” 

lan knew the truth. This investment of one hundred and eighty million dollars was basically a lost cause because building houses would require more investment. The EverBest Group might lose over two hundred million this time.

“Don’t bid again.” 

His tone was flat, and he looked at Maja. 

But Maja didn’t bid again.
