Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 640

Maja bumped into Ian's car on her drive back from the hospital.

Ian’s car was parked by an alley, its windows shattered to pieces.

Her heart started to pound rapidly.

Maja quickly dialed Ian’s number, but there was no reply.

She then called Jeff, who told her that Ian planned to drive back to the hotel on his own that night.

In a hurry, Maja got out of her car. After a moment of thought, she decided to venture deeper into the alley.

The far end of the alley was damp, there were flickering lights, obviously neglected for years.

There were men lying on the ground, their blood pooling together.

Maja's legs gave out as a bullet whizzed past her.

Frozen in place, she waited until a man slowly emerged from the shadows. She leaned against the wall, standing under the flickering streetlamp.

The bullet had grazed her hair and embedded itself in the wall behind her.

Maja was too shocked to even speak, especially when she saw that the man with the gun was Ian!

He seemed surprised to see her there.

By the time he realized it was her, the bullet had already strayed from its intended path. Otherwise, she would have been dead.

Ian frowned, strode over, gave her a once-over to confirm she was just scared by the sight of the bodies, and then blurted out, "What are you doing here?"

"Mr. Raymond, are you hurt?"

Ian stiffened, his grip on the gun tightening.

This woman was strange. The scene was horrifying, a sea of blood, she herself had nearly been shot, yet she was asking if he was hurt.

Most people would've screamed at the sight, maybe even thought he was a cold-blooded killer.

Ian found that amusing, lit a cigarette, and laughed.

Maja stood still. The nauseating smell of blood had indeed shaken her, but she had an idea why Ian was being targeted.
