Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 818

She could only clutch the bedsheet tightly, the veins on her hands clearly visible.

But the man's retreating figure was so sorrowful, so committed.

Selena's eyes shot towards the ceiling, tears trickling down one by one.

Yet she still didn't feel she was wrong. What's wrong with loving someone?

From the first day she fell in love with Steve, she decided to pour all her energy into love.

He didn't like her. No biggie. There was plenty of time left in life, and he would eventually forget about Lillian.

He still wasn't moved after marriage. No worries. She'd have two kids first to keep him around through the children.

She compromised step by step, never expecting such an outcome in the end.

Selena felt as if her chest was being shattered, the pain indescribable, for she lay in bed, unable to vent.

She even forgot about Maja's existence. Everything she did was to attract Steve's attention.

When she discovered how cold Steve was, Maja no longer mattered to her.

Even if Steve detested her at this moment, to avoid making their son an enemy of the Casson family, he would still visit her regularly.

That was enough for her.

What did it matter if she lost her health? At least she had indeed gained Steve's care.

The night grew darker.

In Greenfield Gardens, Ian turned his back to the doctor, his wound already treated.

He didn't furrow his brows the whole time, instead thinking about that ring.

The look on Maja's face when she saw the ring was still fresh in his mind. After he threw it away, her face instantly turned white, as if she had lost part of her heart.

He remembered what his grandfather had said, and perhaps she had someone she liked before. The corners of his mouth twitched up, revealing a sarcastic smile.

Better not. If he found out she really had, he'd kill her!

Just as Ian was about to go upstairs to sleep, Jeff walked into the hall.

"Boss, the ring for Miss Penny is ready."

Ian's previous request was: the bigger the diamond on the ring, the better.

But the stock at home didn't impress him, so he ordered one from abroad, which had just arrived.

It even had Maja's initials engraved on it.

"Toss it."
