Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 595

Ian looked a bit perplexed, but he still got what Tyler was saying.

He put down his glass with a faint smirk on his lips.

"I offered her a billion, and she tore up the check and threw it in my face. I only asked for a month of her time. Did she feel ripped off?"

Tyler stifled a laugh, unable to picture such a scene, but it was totally something Penny might do.

He quickly raised his glass.

"Bottom line, you're getting a divorce tomorrow. Your grandpa probably won't care who you're into anymore. You should properly apologize to Penny. She must've been freaked out today. After all, women need some sweet talk. If you don't butter her up, someone else will."

They both knew who that someone else was without saying it out loud.

After all, Ian and Penny were only secret lovers.

But this guy clearly didn't have the awareness of being a lover.

When Maja woke up at 3 a.m. to the sound of the doorbell outside the living room, she initially thought she had heard wrong and rolled over in bed.

She hadn't been able to sleep for the two nights when Ian had blindfolded her.

Or rather, she hadn't slept much since her father passed away a week ago.

Now she was exhausted, knowing that it was him. Her mental burden wasn't as heavy.

Either way, once or twice, it was torture.

The doorbell rang for ten minutes. Rita across the hall couldn't stand it and opened her own door, only to see the man standing outside. She immediately held her breath, swallowed the curse she was about to hurl, quickly stepped back and closed the door.

She was afraid that one second slower and she would be spotted by him.

Ian reeked of alcohol as he tirelessly rang the doorbell.

But Maja never opened the door. Someone had made a scene at her door all night, and she could sleep soundly, let alone just a doorbell ringing now.

Half an hour later, Maja still hadn't opened the door. Ian skillfully took out his key and let himself in.

And Rita across the hall was standing at her own door all this time and only let out a sigh of relief when she saw through the peephole that the man had gone in.

She had learned her lesson, and ever since she was scared by Maja, she hadn't had any other ideas.

Ian entered the room, ripped off his tie, and called out, "Penny?"

No response.

He was thirsty and wanted a drink.

He went to the bedroom, saw a lump on the bed, so he lifted the blanket, and wanted to lie down.
