Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 385

Maja turned her head to see Felix chatting with a nurse.

"We're his friends. How's he doing?"

"Well, he might have a concussion and needs further observation. We'll know more after the doctor checks him out. Just wait here for now."

Felix sat down, his clothes still stained with blood.

Maja pulled out a cheque, inscribing it for 20 grand.

"Felix, this is for Nathan's medical bills. I'm not sure if it's enough, but I've got to dash. Something urgent has come up."

Felix glanced at the cheque, a sneer of contempt in his eyes, as if questioning this approach.

However, when he looked up, his former demeanor had returned - gentle and pure.

"Don't tell Carol about this, she'll worry."

Maja was preoccupied with Ian, fearing that he might suddenly abandon dealing with ByteWise Technologies after a tantrum.

So, she didn't notice Felix's emotional shift.

"Don't worry, I won't tell her. It's my fault Nathan got hurt. I'll apologize to him."

Felix nodded and accepted the cheque.

"Alright, I'll make sure he gets it."

Maja hurried off, frequently checking her phone as she drove.

She honked her horn in frustration just as the road was jammed.

The usual twenty-minute drive to the hotel took twice as long due to the traffic.

Ian had given her only an hour. Every passing minute made her heart pound faster.

In her anxiety, her car was rear-ended, and her head hit the steering wheel, almost bringing tears to her eyes.

The accident scene was chaotic. The other driver called the police and asked her to wait.

But Maja just left her business card.

"Sorry, I've got to run. Something urgent. Let's sort out the compensation over the phone."

With that, she dashed towards a cab.

With that, she hurried into the bathroom and locked the door.

She had just showered before leaving, and now she was doing it again. She dried herself off, looked at herself in the mirror, took a deep breath, and put on the set of white clothes she had stuffed into her bag in haste.

The fabric was thin, barely covering her.

She put on the clothes, placed her bag on a shelf, hesitated for a few seconds, then opened the bathroom door.

No longer wearing a coat, just the white outfit, her exposed skin seemed especially bright.

"Mr. Raymond, is this outfit okay?"

Maja, a stunning beauty with an aloof look, was staring at him.

Ian had originally been furious, but when the bathroom door opened, she walked out with the steam.

Her skin was flushed.

All his anger was instantly deflected.

For the first time, Ian was acutely aware of what temptation meant.
