Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 159

That woman kept blowing off their agreed meetings. Now the dinner's ready and she's still snoozing upstairs, making everyone wait for her.

This was a woman who dawdled and completely relied on the Blanchet family’s support for her life.

That's the image of her in his mind.

"Let's start without her."

He said it calmly, getting up to go to the dining table.

Maria was being extra careful, sensing Mr. Raymond's irritation.

Now the relationship between the two may be alienated again, she sighed. But before Ms. Pennyfeather went upstairs, her complexion was really bad. At this moment, she probably really didn't hear the knock on the door. Maria wanted to speak up for Maja, but Ian interrupted her.

"I don't want to hear about her."

His eyes were cold and controlled, his tone almost cruel. It shut Maria up.

Throughout dinner, Maria could only minimize her presence.

The other servants were also cautious.

Ian ate with grace and didn't eat much. Once he's finished, he headed to his bedroom upstairs.

Maria told the staff to clear the table and kept a plate for Maja.

Meanwhile, Maja's at Silverstone Enterprises, her business partner for this venture.

She had a nap and some concealer on before she left, hiding any signs of tiredness. Otherwise, it would be pretty disrespectful to meet her partners looking like that.

The people at Silverstone Enterprises were more reliable than Silver. They chatted for a bit and then set up a dinner meeting.

Since it's a business dinner, there's bound to be some drinking. Maja only drunk two glasses at this time and it took only three hours to negotiate the next process.

She handed over the blueprints and selected most of the basic construction materials.

The two parties had a pleasant chat and were expected to start working in two days. Maja didn't call the driver when she came out, and now she drank alcohol and had to take a taxi. When the car stopped at Rosewood Manor, she paid, opened the door and stepped inside.

Rosewood Manor was unusually quiet tonight. The moment she stepped in, she could feel a tense atmosphere.

It felt weird.
