Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 115

When Connie spoke, her voice became softer, and her gaze at Coco was full of affection.

"Coco is as cute as a button, just like that puppy. Penny, where do you live? Can I come and visit often?"

As she finished speaking, Connie glanced behind her, where a path seemed to lead to a luxurious villa area.

This place was super pricey. The best villas were snapped up as soon as they went on sale. Seeing Penny coming from there, it seemed she was pretty well-off.

Maja caught on to her thoughts and quickly cleared the air.

"I just happened to be passing by this area. It's a great place to walk the dog, with great views. I don't actually live here. I've just moved out of my rental place and I'm about to move again. I'll let you know once I've found a suitable place."

Connie didn't doubt her and continued to pet Coco's head, playing with it.

Maja glanced at the sketchpad behind Connie and noticed that her drawing was only half-finished. It looked like Connie hadn't been here long.

"Aren't you going to keep drawing?"

Reluctantly removing her hand from Coco's head, Connie picked up her brush with a hint of annoyance.

"I don't have time tonight. I have to finish the drawing now. Ugh, it's homework for tomorrow."

"I'll take Coco somewhere else to play. Oh, by the way, happy birthday. I'll give you your present later."

If she was going to a birthday party, she definitely needed to bring a gift.

What Maja had prepared was all the notes she had organized from her previous practices, all of which were her most important painting experiences.

Connie didn't lack anything. Giving her jewelry or something like that would be kinda tacky.

"Okay, thank you. Since you're still renting, don't splurge on a gift. I really don't need anything."

"Don't worry, you'll love it."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Maja didn't dare to hang around there any longer, worried she'd bump into someone she knew.

She was about to take Coco and leave when, nearly at Rosewood Manor, she saw Ian's car slowly driving by. He was also headed to Rosewood Manor.

Maja froze, almost reflexively stopping and pulling Coco behind a large tree.

Now that Ian knew her identity, was he coming to question her?
