Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 265

Maja was hit hard; it felt like she was dreaming.

Just over forty minutes ago, she was on the phone with Wyatt and is now hearing about his death.

The bar was quickly blocked off, but the bar's surveillance equipment just happened to malfunction. On tape, you could only see Wyatt entering the lobby; all other footage was unviewable.

The cops did their thing, only to conclude that Wyatt drank himself to death. Murder's off the table for now.

The hygiene situation in the bar was not great either. Thousands of fingerprints were mixed up in the private rooms with overlaps. Even if you were to check them individually, it would take time, plus many of the prints were blurred. Other than penalizing the bar for insufficient safety measures, there wasn't much else to do.

Maja stood in the hospital corridor, unable to digest the news.

Wyatt's relatives quickly arrived, and the corridor filled with the sound of crying.

Maja had been hanging around hospitals recently and was no stranger to the sound of sobbing.

She rubbed her temples; only Wyatt's message remained on her phone. But she had already handed this message over to the police. The police said they would continue investigating, but Wyatt's death was a fact.

Maja returned to the hotel, which was now sealed off, and all the guests still inside were persuaded to leave.

After the murder, it was all locked down.

But no one was investigated by the cops because the doc had already given an apparent cause of death: alcohol poisoning. From start to finish, it was only Wyatt in the private room. He had asked Maja to join him, but by the time he stopped breathing, Maja was still on the road.

Now it was midnight, Maja had repeatedly asked the bar owner about the surveillance situation, but the bar owner was also being questioned by the police and seemed very tense.

No answers were forthcoming.

A crowd was forming on the scene; Maja was helpless and could only walk away, planning to leave first.

Meanwhile, everyone also started leaving the bar where Ian was.

Carlene had a few drinks and had been waiting for Ian's wife to show up, but she never did or even replied to any messages.
