Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 749

His icy and deep black eyes were filled with a mixture of emotions when he looked at Selena.

This playboy from the Sanders family wasn't as frivolous as he appeared on the surface.

He hung around the painting for a bit, chit-chatted with some folks, then took off.

When he got back to his car, Maja was already seated in the back seat.

He drove her back to his villa and personally carried her upstairs.

He had the maid bathe her, treat the wound on her forehead, and only then did he call a doctor over for a check-up.

"She's just been scared, sir, nothing to worry about."

Beck heaved a sigh of relief. Thinking about the Raymonds' behavior made his blood boil.

They dared to treat a woman so viciously!

After sending everyone off, Selena immediately questioned her bodyguard,

"Did you find her?"

"Sorry, ma'am, no luck."

"Incompetent! How can a person just vanish into thin air?! Keep searching! We must find her!"

She couldn’t let her plans go down the drain.

Suddenly, Ian's voice came from behind, "What are you looking for?"

Selena froze in fear. How did he get back here?

"Ian, what brought you back all of a sudden?"

It's been a while since he last came back.

Ian looked indifferent, his gaze sweeping around the room.

"Dad said you've been making a mess around the house."

I was the middle of the day, and she was throwing a party. That was certainly odd.

Selena swallowed hard, worried that her treatment of Maja had been discovered.

"Your dad's the one who wants a divorce."

Ian, irritated, loosened his tie. Just as he was about to go upstairs for some documents, he saw a snake crawling out from a corner.

"How did this get in here?"

The villa got checked every three days, mainly for pests and snakes. It was impossible for a snake to be there unless someone intentionally put it there.

Selena instructed her staff to catch the snake, explaining, "The inspector must have slacked off recently."
