Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 169

Maja took a swift look at the woman standing beside Leo. Her fiery red hair was striking, her eyeliner was thick, and her makeup was caked on so heavily that it was hard to make out her real face.

The woman sneered and spat when she saw Maja charging towards them.

"Leo, who's she?"

"Oh, she's... she's my sister."

"You're lying! Didn't you say you had no relatives in Greenfield? Is she your girl?"

"No, she's not!"

Leo struggled to explain, but the woman raised her hand and slapped him, then spat on the ground.

"Go away. Don't come looking for me again."

Leo tried to follow her, but Maja stopped him.

"Leo! You're already married, what the hell are you doing messing around with other women? At least get a divorce first!"

The woman hadn't gone far. Seeing Leo and Maja tangled up, thinking about her past efforts, she was seething.

She stormed back, pushing Maja into the road.

"Bitch! Daring to steal my man! Do you know who I am?!"

Maja was taken aback. She hadn't expected the woman to come back so suddenly and push her into the road without hesitation.

A car was coming from not far away, looking like it was about to hit her.

Leo was standing at the corner, already screaming in panic.

Yet the car stopped just in time, with only ten centimeters between it and Maja's face.

Maja, still in shock, got up from the road. She saw Leo grab the woman hard.

"Go away! Go away! Never show your face again!"

"Fine, Leo, if you dare talk to me like this, don't bother coming to work tomorrow!"

Leo's face turned red, and he didn't dare to look at Maja.

Maja was already back on her feet. She saw the familiar license plate and her scalp tingled.

The car window rolled down, revealing Ian's face.

Unfortunately, the older generation always thinks that sons are better. They had pampered him like a treasure since he was a child, and even when he made mistakes, it was his parents who took the responsibility.

The woman was still standing next to Leo. When she heard this, she rolled up her sleeves, ready to charge.

"What the hell do you mean by 'this kind of woman'? I earn my own money and spend it as I please, clean and clear. Don't use your bookish logic to fool me!"

Maja did indeed look like someone who had read a lot of books, completely different from her.

Leo was getting anxious too, constantly berating her.

"Enough! Stop talking! Didn't I tell you to leave?"

"Fine! Since you're asking me to leave, don't come begging me to help you find a job tomorrow!"

This was a complete blow to his dignity, especially in front of his sister. Leo instinctively wanted to run away, but Maja held him back.

"Can't you be responsible for once? Leo, you're 28 now, when are you planning to stop worrying your family?"

Maja had told Leo this kind of thing more than once. Leo felt like he was losing face.

He took a deep breath, wanting to refute Maja, but seeing Ian's overpowering presence, he lost his courage and held back.
