Chapter 830
His rejection was clear as day, “Spend more time with Grandpa Holden.”
With that, Maja headed for the door without hesitation.
lan quickly grabbed his suit jacket and followed.
Maja didn’t want to share a ride with him again, but it was only when she walked out the door that she realized she had arrived in his car. Now, her only way to get home was to ask the Raymond family’s chauffeur to drive her or walk.
There were no cabs to hail in the area..
Footsteps behind her, lan placed his jacket over her shoulders.
It was a chilly, drizzly spring day.
“Put this on. I’ll take you home.”
He was firm.
Maja didn’t say anything else and got into the passenger seat.
lan drove himself, but no sooner had they set off than his phone rang.

Because he was driving, he didn’t check the caller ID and answered on speakerphone.
“What’s up?”
A familiar voice came from the other end.
“lan, why aren’t you answering my calls? I miss you, don’t you miss me?”
The caller wasn’t a first–time caller. Ian hung up immediately and stole a glance at Maja.
Maja was still staring out the window, unbothered by the call.
He explained quickly, “Must have been a prank call. I don’t know who that was.”
Her face remained expressionless, and after a while, she just said, “Oh.”

lan gripped the steering wheel tightly, eventually stopping the car in a secluded spot with no other vehicles around.
Maja immediately became alert, hearing the sound of car doors being locked.
“What are you up to?”
lan adjusted his seat backwards, making more room.
He pulled Maja towards him, huffing and puffing.
“What was that nonchalant ‘oh‘ earlier? Do you have no feelings for me? Maja, I don’t get you. Initially, I was with you because I was attracted to your body. What about you? Am I not the least bit attractive to you?”
Maja looked up at him and calmly said,
“Mr. Raymond, I thought you’d understand the games adults play better than I do.”
“I’m asking you if there’s even the slightest bit of affection for me?”
“None, you simply satisfy me, that’s it.”
lan felt as though he had been slapped twice. It was the same feeling he had when he told others, ‘I’m only sticking around because I’m not bored of her yet!
The hurtful words he once said were now causing him pain through Maja’s response.
He grabbed her chin tightly but couldn’t find any words to argue.
Maja shrugged off his hand and returned to her seat.
“Can you take me to the hospital now? If not, then unlock the doors.”
“Do I really disgust you that much?”

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....
