Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 97

He scowled a bit, but didn't think too much of it. He turned and walked over to the table nearby and continued reading his work emails.

The next morning, he was up very early, and Maria brought him his breakfast. Ian glanced around the living room but didn't see the lady of the house.

Maria seemed to know what he was looking for and quickly explained.

"Ms. Pennyfeather was a bit tired yesterday, and she asked me not to wake her up this morning."

Ian remembered Neil's hospitalization. She probably came back from the hospital last night.

But wasn't Neil just faking his illness?

His expression was cold as he slowly ate his breakfast and then got into the car parked outside.

On his first night at Rosewood Manor, he didn't see his wife whom he hadn't seen in three years. He wasn't sure if she was restraining herself or deliberately trying to get his attention. If it was the latter, she might have chosen the wrong method. He wasn't interested in her.

He would never be interested in her.

Upon arriving at the Raymond Corporation, Ian gave Jeff an order. "Buy some gifts and go visit Neil at lunch."

Jeff nodded in understanding.

Back at Rosewood Manor, Maria waited until Ian left before knocking on Maja's door, who had already finished her morning routine and was waiting for Maria to come get her.

"Has he left?"

"Yes, he just left."

Maja then went downstairs.

"If you're avoiding Ian because of Selena, do you want me to tell Holden?"

"No need, Maria. I don't consider you an outsider, so I won't hide it from you. I don't like Ian. I did marry him because of the three million dollars in financing. If Selena doesn't like me because of this, it's normal. Once Holden recovers, I'll divorce Ian."

Maria had nothing to say, so she just nodded.

After finishing her breakfast, Maja picked up the gift for Holden and planned to go to the old house.

Holden was living alone in the old house now, with many help and doctors around.

Perhaps because he had returned to his homeland, Holden's spirits were high. When he saw Maja, he excitedly stood up with the aid of his cane.

"Maja, you're finally here."
