Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 4

The car door opened.

Selena was about to go and greet the person, but the young man stepping out from the car wasn't Ian, but his assistant, Jeff.-

"Mr. Ian has some last-minute stuff, so he can't make it home for dinner tonight. He asked me to bring you this gift."

When Selena had called Ian, she had only hoped that he would come home for dinner. She hadn't mentioned that Maja would be there too. He left his wife and headed overseas three years ago, and this time he probably would have outright refused to meet her.

Selena waved a servant over to take the bouquet from Jeff, her face showing a hint of disappointment. She sighed, "I know he's busy. It's okay, tell him to take care of himself."

Jeff nodded and got back in the car.

Returning to the living room and seeing Maja, Selena felt her mood sink further. She waved dismissively, "Just go. I'll call you when he's free."

"Okay."

Maja nodded, not bothered by the rejection. She hadn't gotten a good look at Jeff, and only caught a glimpse of a man's silhouette. But she knew it wasn't Ian.

Not seeing him today was no big deal. After all, the divorce agreement was already prepared.

She got back into her car. While waiting at a red light, Maja glanced at her work group chat.

It was off duty time, and the chat was buzzing.

"I heard Ian is coming back to get married? He just bought a new place, is he starting to decorate?"

"Our boss was Ian's high school classmate, do you think he can help us land this design project?"

"If we could design Ian's wedding house, we'd definitely make a killing! His net worth alone is enough to put him amongst the top few on the rich list. Being a top-tier international investor and coming from a wealthy family, it's an honor just to be able to talk to him..."

Other than a few insiders, basically no one knew that Ian was already married. Even the media hadn't reported on it.

Maja wasn't interested in the topic. She was about to drive off when she received a text from her boss, Maxwell.

[Come to Moonlight, there's a Mr. Elston who's interested in the villas you designed and wants to talk to you.]

Maja's career in interior design was unplanned. She was originally a painter, but in her freshman year, she designed a villa for a classmate on a whim. That villa caught the eye of a wealthy man who bought it for ten times the original price, making her an overnight sensation.

After that, she accepted an invitation from Maxwell, her schoolmate, to work part-time as an interior designer in his studio.
