Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 79

Upon hearing the sound, Ian furrowed his brows, lifting his head from a pile of papers, to see Maja standing outside the car, grinning.

The picturesque view of Crystalbrook Valley surrounded her, with only the top half of her face visible, her eyes reflecting the sunlight.

His grip on the papers tightened involuntarily.

Why did he have to run into her no matter where he went?

Maja, unaware of his momentary change, knocked on the car window again, “Mr. Raymond, can I get in?”

Ian lowered his head, speaking in a calm tone, “Hop in.”

Maja pulled open the car door and got in.

The midday sun outside was scorching hot. As the door opened, a gust of hot air, along with her faint fragrance, wafted in.

Daly, standing behind, relaxed his heart as he saw Maja get into the car and followed suit.

Olivia was standing at the front of the car on the phone, and beside her was a not-so-friendly-looking guy on a motorbike.

Upon seeing Ian's car, the guy's eyes popped open.

“Olivia, do you know how much this car costs?”

Olivia shook her head, but it was the most beautiful car she had ever seen, “How much?”

The guy mysteriously lifted a finger.

“One million dollars?”

“Over ten million dollars!”

Olivia almost dropped her phone!

She had never seen such an expensive car in her life. If the price of the car was converted into cash, how many houses could be bought?

In her astonishment, she saw Daly in the car behind and quickly waved at him.

Daly had no choice but to signal the driver to stop.

“Dad, the car's out of gas. How could you go out without refueling? How am I supposed to drive back now?”

A look of apology instantly appeared on Daly's face, “Just hold on, Oli. I'll ask a colleague to come and fill it up.”

Maja felt silent. She spent her last year of high school in Crystalbrook Valley, living with Daly's family.

He had always been kind to her, and she remembered his kindness. However, she couldn't agree to this.

Indulging and spoiling Olivia would eventually cause trouble if not stopped.

The car wasn't hers and with Olivia's personality, there was no telling what she might do if she got in the car.

Olivia's voice came through the phone just as she was about to speak.

“All you need to do is tell your Boss next to you. Why you're being so difficult? Don't forget you guys owe me a lot. If it weren't for your cousin going to your family's company, how could he have left? After he left, he disappeared, leaving me alone at home. This is what you guys owe me!”

Maja hung up the phone right away.

Hearing the click, Olivia's face instantly changed, glaring at Daly in anger.

“She hung up on me. I'm sure she doesn't feel guilty at all! If she ever comes back, don't leave her a room. She looks down on us!”

Daly was stuck between a rock and a hard place. With two important individuals present, he couldn't waste their time.

He immediately got out of the car, “Oli, get in. I'll walk back.”
