Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 314

As people drifted away, Carlene, wanting to show her care for Dana, personally escorted her to the car.

Ian stood frozen, eyeing Maja. He then started slowly moving toward her, causing her a bit of unease.

As Ian moved closer, he lowered his gaze onto her.

She slightly lifted her eyes. Their desire completely fading as if last night's tenderness was a mere illusion.

"Penny."

He softly called her by her name, wanted to say something more, but saw Carlene returning.

"Ian, breakfast is ready; you must be starving, Connie; let’s grab some food."

Seeing Ian and Maja so close, Carlene's alertness shot right up, and she quickly strode over.

"Penny, I've sent Dana home; we’re looking into the spiked drink thing. Now that she's apologized, I hope you won't hold a grudge."

It kind of sounded cocky.

But Maja didn't plan on holding onto that; she was kind of peckish.

She didn't have dinner last night, and now she felt like she'd been doing hard labor in a dream for a long time; she was really hungry.

She answered nonchalantly, then pulled the still-stunned Connie.

"Shall we go eat?"

Connie, coming back to her senses, was a bit scared. Connie was still young and never had a boyfriend; she just wanted to curl up into a ball right now.

"Sure."

Hearing Connie's answer, Maja headed downstairs.

Connie thought for a moment, then turned back to say one thing.

"Ian, Carlene, come join us."

Ian stood still, watching Maja's attitude, completely different from last night; a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

What was she trying to imply?

Once downstairs, Maja sat down; a waiter pushed a food cart over.

Maja glanced out the window; those tanks filled with expensive seafood were all gone.

She felt a bit regretful, and she went to bed early last night and didn't even get a chance to taste them.
