Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 817

Chapter 817 

Alma couldn’t help but look at Steve and her smile was absolutely perfect. 

“Uncle, I’ve been hearing some rumors, and I’m unsure if they’re true.” 

Steve’s face was cold, sitting up straight. 

‘You should know they’re just rumors.” 

This made Alma a bit awkward. Her face turned a shade, but she still kept her patience. 

“I just got back from abroad, and I don’t quite understand the situation at home, but I heard that my cousin has taken an interest in his designer immediately after his divorce, and that designer happens to be his ex–wife. Is that so?” 

“Alma, if you’re interested, why don’t you ask lan directly?” 

Alma kept her smile, gently touching her hair. 

“Alright, I’ll make time to ask him. And remind him not to forget my friend. She has been keeping in touch with him and likes him a lot. I wonder if he has forgotten, he hasn’t written back in months. My friend has been waiting for him. I came back this time to check on things for her.” 

At this, Steve frowned. Who wrote letters these days? 

lan didn’t seem like the type; he barely responded to text messages, let alone wrote letters. 

“Is your friend a guy or a girl?” 

‘She’s a girl, and she met my cousin online. He used to care a lot about her, but recently, he’s been cold. I wonder if he was deceiving her feelings.” 

‘lan doesn’t write letters to anyone.” 

“Uncle, I think we better ask cousin lan. After all, you don’t fully understand your son.” 

This sounded a bit offensive. 

Steve’s face darkened a bit. 

Realizing her mistake, Alma quickly apologized, “I won’t disturb you any longer, goodbye.” 

With that, she left the room. 

Steve sat by the bed, noticing Selena trying to talk to him. He motioned her to come closer.. Steve frowned, but he lowered his head considering she was his wife. 

“What’s up?” 

‘Don’t want to divorce.” 

Steve looked at Selena with mixed feelings. Over the years, they’ve had too many fights over Lillian. 

Every time they fought, Selena would bring up Lillian, and Steve grew tired of it over time. 

Since marrying him, Selena had lost herself, always trying to keep tabs on him. 

But Steve’s work was confidential, and she can’t go to many places with him. 

When she can’t get involved, Selena started to make a fuss. 

A little fuss and both the Casson family and the Raymond family would be affected. 

Under the persuasion of the two families, the marriage had been difficult to maintain till today. 

He had been unwilling to step down from that position, not wanting to come home to see her. 

He once advised her to find her own interests, but Selena wouldn’t hear of it. She was only interested in studying his preferences. 

She put in too much effort, so when Steve didn’t respond with the same energy, she naturally felt disappointed, even devastated. 

They’ve been fighting for nearly thirty years. The affection they once had was almost gone. Only a deep resentment remained. 

Even seeing her lying in bed now, he didn’t feel any discomfort. 

He even felt a bit relieved. 

But what he didn’t expect was that, at this moment, the thing Selena cared about the most was the divorce.
