Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 863

Ian's eyes were a bit misty at the moment, his lips too. Their kiss was so passionate that the friction between their lips left them both a bit flushed.

He pushed the door open with one hand, looking down at her from above, his eyes filled with a hint of grievance.

"Aren't you a Solstice College grad? Don't you know what this means? A man teased by a woman and then left hanging. It could seriously mess with my mind! If I can't have kids in the future, it's all your fault!"

Right now, all Maja could think was: How can this guy have such a thick face!?

Maja was shocked. She sneakily glanced at his lower body, only to find nothing unusual there.

Ian leaned against the door frame, his eyes closed, looking as if he was leaving the decision up to her.

He seemed so calm, yet so brazen.

Maja couldn't help but wonder if he really had a physical issue.

If he did, Grandpa Holden would definitely intervene.

Once Grandpa Holden asked about it, Ian, being the shameless guy he was, would definitely pin the blame on her.

And that would be a responsibility bigger than any other.

She couldn't bear it all. She swallowed hard.

"Ian, how do you know there's something wrong with you?"

She stopped calling him Mr. Raymond and called him by his first name.

Ian's eyelashes fluttered slightly, his eyes slowly opening.

Maja's face was filled with worry, apparently really fooled by him.

But then she thought, his pants were clearly bulging just now, and they'd deflated so quickly. It did seem like there was something wrong with him.

"Ian, maybe we should go to the hospital." Maja was really unsure.

Ian couldn't describe what he was feeling. He was just teasing her, but she was so naive about these things.

He felt a sweet bitterness in his heart.

He had thought she was an experienced woman, but she was just too innocent.

"Maja." He was supposed to be fooling her, but seeing her face made him feel embarrassed at first, so he looked away.

"The night you slept with me was your first time, wasn't it?"

He thought she had had flings with other men, but seeing her anxiety and ignorant worry, he wished he could slap himself for being so wrong.

Maja walked up and gently nudged his shoulder, "Ian?"

Ian had been busy abroad these past few days, hardly sleeping. He had come home and didn't even have time to adjust to the time difference before they went to the party. Now, he was obviously too tired even to open his eyes.

"Ian, didn't we agree to go to the hospital?"

Before she could finish, Ian pulled her tightly into his arms.

"I'm really tired. I hardly slept at all these past few days abroad. Can we go to the hospital tomorrow morning?"

Maja looked up and noticed the deep, dark circles under his eyes.

He was obviously so tired, yet he still managed to be flippant.

Maja was the type of person who responded better to a soft approach than a hard one. If Ian was tough on her, she might fight back. But if he showed a vulnerable side, she would instantly soften.

She tried to remove his hand, but he held her even tighter.

"Maja, I really missed you."

As he said this, his breathing became shallow yet rapid.

As Maja stared at the ceiling, she wondered if it was the hormones talking. When he expressed his longing for her despite his tiredness, her heart rate increased, and her palms even started to sweat.
