Maja's bodyguard immediately stepped up, shoving Omar back a few paces.
Omar glanced at the accident scene, initially thinking that Cornelia was the one in trouble. His guys had been tailing Cornelia lately, so once he got word of the accident, he rushed over.
Seeing that Cornelia was okay, he breathed a sigh of relief. But his heart gave a jolt when he saw the license plate of the burning car.
It belonged to Cornelia's parents, who had come looking for him tonight in their only car, asking him to stop harassing Cornelia.
Omar was generally polite to them, if only for the sake of Cornelia's dignity. He wouldn't do anything to them.
He treated them warmly, even bearing the brunt of Cornelia's mother's tirade without a word. They left only at midnight.
They made it clear that they'd never agree to him being with Cornelia unless they were dead.
Omar didn't really care about that, but now, seeing the charred car and the two burnt bodies not far away, he was suddenly seized with panic.
It was like losing something he had always cherished.
He had gotten out of his car confidently, even arrogantly. But now, he didn't dare say a word, only slowly approaching, trying to pull Cornelia out of Maja's arms.
Cornelia clung to Maja as if she were the last straw in her life.
Maja stared at Omar, emotionless, simply saying, "Back off."
All of Cornelia's suffering was because of this man. What right did he have to show up now?
Omar was taken aback. He didn't understand why Maja had the right to talk to him this way.
He pulled out a gun and pointed it at her. "Are you looking for trouble? Don't think I'm scared of Ian. Who the hell does he think he is?"
No sooner had he spoken than Maja's two bodyguards also drew their guns. This place was by the highway, even the police were there.
Soon, this section of the road was blocked off, and regular vehicles could no longer enter.
Several police cars arrived, surrounding both parties and even preparing riot shields.

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....
