Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 475

He was chilling on the couch, firing up his laptop with one hand. There was some drama going on at the overseas company that needed him to fly out and sort it all out.

He was jetting off in the next couple of days, but he had to pull an all-nighter to get all the paperwork for the Raymond Corporation wrapped up.

Carlene was feeling all kinds of awkward about asking for help, especially since she'd been running her mouth about the Pennyfeather family being all talk and no action that very morning.

She felt like a total fool and started to wonder if all of this was a trap set by Maja.

If that was the case, then she was indeed a big, fat dummy.

While she was busy showing off to Maja, Maja must have been laughing her head off at how gullible she was.

Thinking about it, Carlene felt like she was about to lose it.

She was actually fooled by a nobody!

How embarrassing!

Even more embarrassing than that one night!

Tears started to fall from her eyes. She had no mood to stir up trouble anymore; she just wanted to get this debt fixed ASAP.

"Ian, could you maybe ask Samuel to do me a solid? I'm sure he'd be down to help if you asked him. This is really important to me."

She was crying her eyes out, and it was heartbreaking.

Ian wondered why she was suddenly asking for Samuel's help when they didn't interact much.

But he didn't have time to dwell on it because Jeff walked in, announcing that the overseas meeting was about to start.

He had a big conference to attend overseas next; he had his hands full.

So he dialed Samuel right away.

Seeing the call from Ian, Samuel was a bit taken aback. Was Ian really going to help Carlene?

He glanced at Maja, who was sitting across from him.

Maja must have guessed who was on the other end of the line. She didn't say anything; she was just gazing out the window with a blank look on her face.

They were still at the restaurant, and she had to speed things up since she was about to team up with Samuel.

The corners of Samuel's mouth lifted slightly as he picked up the call, then deliberately switched to speakerphone, placing the phone on the table.

"Well, well, Mr. Raymond has time to make calls now, does he?"

His tone was teasing, like he was looking for some entertainment.

Ian glanced at his watch.

"You should know. It's about Carlene."
