Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 1168

Maja had already bolted outside, her face as white as a sheet.

“Maja!”

Ian followed behind her, yanking her back with one hand.

Maja was pinned against a deserted pillar by him.

Ian knew what was going through her mind as he cradled her face in his hands.

She didn't look at him, her chest heaving as she struggled to digest the shocking truth.

Ian had no idea what to say. He gently brushed her nose with his, and not sensing any resistance, he slowly moved down to kiss her lips.

He surely understood why Eric chose to appear in such a scenario. While it was a blow to Maja, it also let everyone from the rich families know that he was Maja's first love. This made Ian's position in the whole situation incredibly awkward.

However, Ian himself didn't give a hoot. He kissed her lips, his hand around her waist gradually tightening.

After ten minutes of passionate kissing, he finally laid his forehead against her shoulder. His back was slightly hunched, and he was breathing rapidly, clearly trying to suppress his emotions.

“Maja.”

He tilted his head, wishing he could bite her pale neck in a heartbeat.

He swept her up in his arms, and went straight to his car.

Maja seemed out of sorts. She kept thinking about the recent events and finally figured out the perplexing situation.

Grandpa Holden agreed to cooperate with Patric because he had known all along that Patric was his biological grandson. Perhaps Patric said too much in front of Grandpa, leading him to treat Ian with such harshness.

After spoiling Ian for so many years, Holden had personally pushed the woman Eric loved into Ian's arms. Hence, when Holden was on his deathbed, he regretted his actions.

Maja felt uncomfortable. She knew that Grandpa Holden had always been good to her, but she was infuriated and saddened by the fact that she was being pushed around like a piece of property.

Ian held her tightly in his arms.

“Ian, are you on good terms with him?”

“It could have been, but it's impossible now.”
