Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 361

If it weren't for Maja's quick response, her hair could've been caught in the closing car window.

She watched the car drive away, finding the whole ordeal hilarious.

She immediately texted Ryan.

[Ryan, I bumped into Ian. He told me not to get too big for my boots. Try reaching out to Carlene. She's currently his shotgun.]

Ryan did indeed give Carlene a call. She picked up the phone with a smile and said she’d ask.

After hanging up, she turned to Ian.

"Ryan just called me. Seems like he's really worried about his girlfriend. Maybe he's serious this time. Ian, don't you think we should let her come back?"

Ian didn't answer, just staring ahead in silence.

When his eyes didn't smile, they seemed incredibly deep.

After a while, he grinned.

"All this fuss for a receptionist's position?"

Carlene let out a sigh of relief, with her face instantly lighting up.

"Exactly, it's just a receptionist's job. No need to go head-to-head with Mr. Elston. He is your cousin, after all."

Ian relaxed again, tapping his fingers on the steering wheel.

He had really nice fingers.

"All right, let her come back."

Carlene's eyes sparkled. Seeing his attitude towards Maja and towards her, she felt more at ease.

She immediately texted Ryan.

Ryan saw her message and sent Maja a text.

[Sorry, Penny, I accidentally got you in trouble with Ian. Carlene's really something. It took less than two minutes for Ian to agree.]

Maja laughed helplessly. Turns out she got scolded for no reason.
