Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 492

He grabbed the shower head off to the side, dousing her hair, pulling her close against his chest, and then started washing her hair.

Maja was so tired, she could barely keep her eyes open, and in her half-conscious state, she was a bit pissed at him, but once she fell asleep, she was oblivious to his gentleness.

Ian had never washed anyone's hair before, so he was a bit clumsy. He squeezed the shampoo bottle several times before beginning to gently massage her hair.

The shampoo lathered up quickly, and he was careful not to hurt her with his touch.

He massaged her scalp for about half an hour, making sure her hair was clean, before he picked up the shower head again to rinse off the foam.

Maja remained asleep, her body sprawled out on his chest.

After washing her hair, Ian picked her up and sat her down on a chair nearby.

She was so deep in sleep that she couldn't help but slide down the chair.

With no other choice, he sat down on the chair himself, letting her lie in his lap as he used a blow dryer to dry her hair.

Even the best blow dryers mase noise, and it's not exactly quiet.

Maja was sleeping peacefully, but she was vaguely aware of a buzzing noise next to her ear.

“Annoying.”

Her voice was hoarse, and she waved her hand impatiently.

Ian had once slept with wet hair while he was abroad and ended up with a headache that lasted for two days.

So when Maja didn’t want to blow dry her hair, he frowned and said, “Stay still.”

Sure enough, Maja didn't move and fell back asleep in his arms.

Even though she had short hair, it was thick and soft. Ian spent over twenty minutes blow-drying her hair.

After carrying her into the bedroom, he checked her lower body to make sure she wasn't injured, then picked up a blanket from the side to cover her.

By the time he had finished all this, it was already eight in the morning. He was way past the time he should have been at work.

Just then, Tyler gave him a call.

“Penny just left last night, and you took off right after. I heard that the private room at the corner of the hallway was rocking for four hours."

Ian smirked, “Buzz off."

For some reason, Tyler had a feeling that Ian's mood had improved a lot.

"If you really like her, don't torture her. Women need to be pampered."

"I don't like her."

Ian answered quickly.

Tyler knew Ian was being stubborn. This was the first time Ian had been so stubborn about a love affair.

"If you don't like her, why would you do those things with her in the private room? If someone had told me before that Ian, the guy who doesn't care about women, would be fooling around with a woman in a private room, I would never have believed it."

"I'm just not tired of her."

She silently counted in her heart, hoping he could finish everything within a week so she wouldn't have to pretend to please him anymore.

She swung her legs over the side of the bed and stood up, seeing Ian standing in the doorway.

He was dressed in black and was no longer the dominant figure from last night but had returned to his aloof demeanor.

Ian walked over and placed the gift beside her.

But he couldn't find the right words and just said in a commanding tone, “For you."

Maja didn't open the gift. She refused him, saying, "Thanks, but I don’t need it."

She didn't even glance at the gift.

Ian felt like he was stabbed in the heart, but he wasn't sure what it meant. His expression turned dark.

"Just take a look."

The saleswoman had said it was the most expensive gift in the store, and it was indeed beautiful.

This kind of bracelet was usually taken to jewelry exhibitions.

However, Maja just got off the bed, calmly got dressed, and didn't respond to his words.

Even her back radiated indifference and rejection.

Once she got up, it was as if she didn't recognize anyone anymore.
