Chapter 599
After she said those words, she just hopped in the car, leaving Carlene in the dust.
Carlene was so mad she could spit.
But it’s cool, and they’re divorced now. Knowing Maja, there’s no way she’s gonna forgive lan!
This was just a cause for celebration!
Maja got back to Rosewood Manor, tossed the divorce papers into a drawer, and couldn’t care less about them anymore.
Maria was waiting for her at home, saw her come back alone, and couldn’t help but ask, “Ms. Pennyfeather, you got divorced?”
Maja nodded, then called the servants, “Get rid of all lan’s stuff for me. I’ll give you the hotel he’s staying at. You can take it to him.”
It’s her villa, no need to keep her ex–husband’s things around, cause she’s going to be the castle queen!
Maria let out a sigh of relief, “If you’re divorced, that’s good. Should I let Coco out now?”
Poor Coco had had a rough time.
Maja nodded, “Go ahead. I’m going to head upstairs and catch some sleep for a while too.”

She didn’t get much sleep last night, and had bags under her eyes.
Maria immediately went to the back room and let Coco out.
Coco started frolicking in the garden. Servants were laughing in the background.
Soon, lan’s stuff was all packed up, not much really, all fit into one small suitcase
He rarely slept here, and only came over when Holden breathed down his neck.
The servant personally delivered the suitcase to the hotel, but lan wasn’t there, so they left it at the front desk.
At six in the evening, Holden woke up.
He didn’t want to see anyone, only let lan stay.
Then he glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already this late.
He coughed, “It’s this late. City hall’s already closed.”
Holden was secretly thrilled. Any delay was a reasonable delay.
But lan was silent for a few seconds before saying, “Grandpa, I’ve already divorced her.”
At first, Holden thought he heard wrong. He was still groggy. How did this guy get a divorce?
He got so mad he threw a pillow at lan’s head.
“Get out and kneel!”
lan thought about it and then without hesitation, knelt in front of the bed, back straight as a rod, looking like he was ready to take any punishment.
Holden suddenly remembered when he was in the army and made a mistake, he had the same attitude, seeming apologetic but never really feeling wrong inside.
There’s nothing wrong with not liking someone.
It was at this moment that Holden realized he was the one in the wrong. He had screwed up two people’s lives.
If he knew it would end up like this, he wouldn’t have done it in the first place.
He took a deep breath, then heard lan say, “Grandpa, don’t be mad. Take care of yourself. I’ll find a more obedient girl to keep you company.”
If he hadn’t said this, it would have been fine, but saying it made Holden even angrier, and he threw another pillow at him.
“In my eyes, Maja is the most obedient girl in the world! If you don’t want her, there are plenty of people who will. Even if you’re divorced, it’s fine. I don’t blame you anymore. Maja’s good days are still ahead after leaving you.”
A hint of a smile flashed in lan’s eyes. Their marriage was really over. There was no chance of turning things around.
“But lan, I ask you to have dinner with Maja. During the three years you were abroad, she called to check on me more than anyone else. When I was in the hospital, she was always there to care for me. She’s mature beyond her years. I can’t owe her any favors.”
lan was a bit dismissive inside. The Raymond family had already helped the Pennyfeather family so much. What did they owe her?
But since Holden had requested him like this, he naturally couldn’t refuse.
“Okay, Grandpa, when you’re feeling better.”

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....
