Chapter 759
He didn’t have much to say now, gave a few coughs, and then waved his hand.
“I promised Maja we’d grab a bite together at some point, and you’re coming along whether you like it or not.”
He was supposed to stay out of this, but the rumors these days were just too much.
lan noticed he didn’t ask about Penny, so there was no need to piss him off right now.
“Got it, Grandpa.”
Leaving the old house, lan stared blankly out the car window.
Jeff couldn’t figure out what was going on in his head, but was surprised to see he hadn’t been punished.
On stepping into the hall of Greenfield Gardens, the servant saw lan return and immediately fetched a beautifully wrapped gift.
“Sir, this was sent over by Tyler.”
lan took it casually, without opening it.
He went back to his room, took a quick shower, avoiding his wounds, and after drying his hair with a towel, he opened the gift.
As soon as the wrapping was opened, it revealed a love manual.
lan’s face darkened instantly, and he chucked the book away.
But the book ended up on the bedside table.
He should not trust Tyler.
He grabbed his laptop from the side, climbed into bed, and started typing. He worked on a few documents, then shut down the computer.
But he couldn’t sleep; he hadn’t been sleeping well recently, and he felt like the room was filled with Penny’s scent.
He turned off the brightest light in the room, leaving only the lamp by the bed, and for some reason, he picked up the so–called love manual and started reading.
The book was written in a simple and easy–to–understand style, clearly for young people with zero love experience.
The whole book was about acknowledging mistakes, cheering up the other party, and learning how to swim.
Tan frowned, not understanding what cheering up a woman had to do with swimming.
He flipped a page, and it read, Women often asked “If I and the other girl fell into the water, who would you save?”
lan thought about the answer, realizing that everyone around him could swim, so if he were with Penny, she probably wouldn’t ask this question.
Skip.
He kept reading until dawn without realizing it.
When the outside just started to light up, he realized he had spent the whole night reading such a boring book!
His face was a bit grim; he got up, dressed, and threw the book straight into the trash bin.
What a waste of time!
After a quick breakfast, he headed to the Raymond Corporation; he had told Maja to come find him.
So he called Jeff in the morning.
“You said I gave a piece of land to Penny?”
“Yes, sir. Ms. Penny has paid about a year’s rent, one million a month.”
“Is the contract signed?”
At that time, they hadn’t fought like they did last night. Although they signed a simple contract, it didn’t have legal force.
“It’s not signed.”
“We need to take back the land. The rent from that land is far more than a million.”
Jeff understood he was deliberately making things difficult for her, but he dared not stop him.
Soon, Maja just woke up and received a phone call.
“Ms. Penny, about the land we rented to you, the CEO has changed his mind; we will refund your money.”
Maja was caught off guard by lan’s move.
She had paid the rent, even communicated with the decoration company, bought the materials, and all the small rooms in the community were under decoration and could be moved in within two months. Even Meetman had chosen his room. Now that lan said he wouldn’t rent it to her, how much would she lose?

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....
