Chapter 812
On the way back to the city, that car finally disappeared from sight.
Maja heaved a sigh of relief, thinking she might be overly paranoid.
Someone like lan would not waste his time tailing her.
Back at Star Movie Group, she immediately sent a message to Wilma to meet up.
But Wilma was constantly busy and even a bit peeved about the rumors about her and Elvis. They finally managed to find a time to meet, and the location was a bar.
It wasn’t BlueSky Bar.
Wilma, currently a rising star, wasn’t high–profile enough to get into a sophisticated place like BlueSky Bar.
Maja shot back a message.
[Alright, I’ll swing by the private room you mentioned around eight.]
After sorting things out with Wilma, Maja received a call from the Raymond family.
Selena’s diagnosis was out; she was indeed in a vegetative state.
But surprisingly, the Raymond family only informed her about it without demanding any apology or compensation.
She knew it had nothing to do with her; it was all Connie’s doing, but there was no response from the Raymond family?
She found it strange but thought cutting ties with the Raymonds was a blessing in disguise!
Why did she fret about it?
lan had been working like a dog for the past few days since he sold 10% of his shares, even pulling an all–nighter at Crystalbrook Valley.
The share issue was a big deal, and there was no hiding it from his grandfather.
So he was summoned to the old mansion as soon as he got back to Greenfield.
The family punishment was inevitable; he was prepared.
Sure enough, the moment he stepped through the doors of Raymond Mansion, his grandpa, Holden Raymond, was already brandishing a whip.
lan naturally took off his jacket and knelt down.
Holden was so angry that his chest hurt; he gave lan fifty lashes.
“lan, are you trying to be the death of me?”
There was no sign of pain on lan’s face, and after a while he looked up and asked, “Grandpa, what should I do then? I want to win Maja back, but she doesn’t like!
me.”
Holden was at a loss for words, thinking he got what he deserved!
Setting the whip down, he took a seat on the couch nearby.
lan remained kneeling, his back still bleeding.
His grandpa wasn’t really heartless; he was actually hurting while punishing him.
After a while, he sighed.
“Maja used to have someone she was really fond of; I heard from Herbert once, and I didn’t think much of it at the time; I just thought it was young people fooling around. But knowing her stubborn personality, if she lets Herbert know about that person, she must really like him.”
Holden paused here; it was a bit improper to ask the next question.
“Have you guys ever really tried for a baby?”
This was essentially asking whether they had been intimate?
But the question was too direct, so he sugarcoated it a bit.
lan stiffened all over, then nodded awkwardly.
“See, you treat her so well, but she doesn’t acknowledge you. I guess she still likes the person she used to be. You know, a girl’s mind is as complex as a poem. With her personality, she could like someone for a long time.”
She’s a stubborn one.
“No way!”
lan felt a pang of panic and even jealousy.

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....
