Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 87

She had been sick and tired of Olivia's personality for a while now.

Seeing that Maja had no intention of interceding, Daly instantly became anxious.

"Even if Oli did it on purpose, can’t we negotiate on this? You know what our family owes to Oli. If she insists on divorce, your cousin might never find a wife again. He took his clients' money and borrowed from loan sharks; it's an open secret in Crystalbrook Valley. Who would dare let their daughter marry into our family? Only Oli would accept him. But if something happens to Oli, what will we do?"

Maja felt exhausted and closed her eyes, knowing that their lives had been hard since all the money they earned had been spent by their son.

She massaged her temples, "Have you ever thought that even if I pleaded with Mr. Raymond, he still wouldn't let it slide. He's very firm on this issue, either pay the compensation, or Olivia goes to jail."

"Maja, can’t you ask your boss, if... if he's willing to reduce the compensation for your sake?"

Maja felt a surge of anger, her tone turning cold.

"I've asked him already; he said it himself. I have to drive, hanging up now."

Before the other person could even respond, she hung up the phone.

This was the first time she had such a heated argument with Daly.

Their characters were too weak, which was why they were bullied by Olivia.

Ian was sitting next to her, hearing her entire conversation.

Only when she hung up the phone did he ask, "Is that woman a relative of yours?"

For some reason, Maja felt a wave of embarrassment, "Yeah, she's my cousin's wife."

Ian's gaze deepened, "Did she say your cousin ran away?"

"Yes, he borrowed from loan sharks before."

"So, she hasn't divorced your cousin?"

He meant that even though they hadn't divorced, Olivia was still pursuing other men. Didn't her family care?

Maja felt even more embarrassed, "Mr. Raymond, I'm sorry about her."

She even found it difficult to speak.

Ian shifted his gaze away, saying lightly, "Do you want to pay for her?"
