Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 588

Chapter 588 

Chapter 588 

Maja froze, utterly clueless about what to say 

She lowered her eyes, mentally calculating the remaining time till her divorce, and still couldn’t find the words. 

“Mr. Raymond, give me a few days to think.” 

Seeing Maja’s defenses soften, lan surprisingly cooled off. 

Maja understood that if she kept resisting, he would only push harder. 

He’d been in his position for so long, always the golden boy, there was no way he’d tum all soft and fluffy. 

“Alright, first take me off your blacklist.” 

In front of him, Maja removed him from her blacklist. 

As she was about to leave, lan grabbed her, pinned her against the wall, and kissed her for half an hour. 

She really didn’t get why he was so into smooching her. 

When she was gasping for breath, he finally let go. 

“Think it over soon.” 

Even though Maja had pacified him, she was still at a loss. 

She couldn’t keep entangled with lan, who was always so hard–nosed yet so tender during their kisses; she’d lose herself eventually. 

And once she lost herself, it would be hard to pull herself out. 

But she had to keep him happy or at least stop him from meddling with the Shepard family’s business. 

Two days later, she had five days left until her divorce from lan. 

Maja learned that Dalia’s son going to jail was a done deal, the EverBest Group’s reputation took a hit, and although lan agreed to invest 300 million dollars, the contract signing was scheduled for ten days later. 

On the other hand, she found out online that Carlos was beaten up drunk and ended up disabled. 

But it wasn’t lan who did the beating; it was a bunch of thugs. 

After breakfast, Ryan called. 

“Penny, don’t mention Carlos’s incident to anyone; I’ve got it handled.” 

Although Ryan was serious, there was always a teasing tone in his voice. 

Maja agreed, then heard him ask, “Is lan pursuing you?” 

Pursuing? 

Was that what lan was doing? 

イ 

She really was at a loss for words. 

“Mr. Elston, do you think that’s possible?” 

A hint of surprise flashed in Ryan’s eyes. Why wouldn’t it be possible? lan had already made it pretty obvious. 

He’d never gone to a bar like that before; only a playboy like Ryan wouldn’t mind such a place. 

The bar lan would go to was definitely upscale; he went there specifically after seeing something on Facebook last 

He even felt murderous toward that director. 

night. 

“Penny, this is no fun; I’m the one who introduced you guys, and you’re keeping secrets from me. He’d be divorced in five days, and you’d be divorced too; why not marry him then? I think he’s pretty into you.” 

Into her? 

Those words surprised Maja. 

Where did he see that lan was into her? 

Would he treat her like this if he was into her? 

She gave a bitter smile, hearing Ryan continue to babble, but she was really tired and didn’t want to talk about anything related to lan anymore. 

“Mr. Elston, I have something to take care of; I’ve got to hang up now.” 

After ending the call, Maja rubbed her forehead. 

Did he like her? 

If Jan didn’t like her, why would he want to sleep with her? 

Was it really, as he said, just for pleasure? 

If it was just for pleasure, couldn’t anyone else satisfy him? 

She was busy all day, and at 4 p.m., she sent lan a message about a private room in BlueSky Bar. 

[Mr. Raymond, how about a drink tonight?] 

Maja had never invited him before. 

This was her first time initiating.
