Chapter 3
The guy had a smile on his face, all suhed up, and easy on the eyes. But there was something about
his gaze that put Maa on edge
She handed Tricias medicine to him, expressionless-

Glenn raised an eyebrow, Lets go up bogether it’s been a while since we last caught up”
I’ve got stuff to do,” Maja said, handing over the meds and immediately making a beeline for the ext
Glenn watched her go He had a meaningful look in his eyes, and couldn’t resist sniffing the bag of
meds
A beautful young woman showed up at the gynecologist with antibiotics and antivirals twat hard not to
jump to conclusions
Glenn lowered his gaze clenching the bag of meds tightly Who would ve thought Maja who was always so aloof, could pull something so scandalous? Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
After all her husband had been out of the picture for three years a woman home alone was bound to
stray.
But he was in no rush She would come back to the Pennyfeathers eventually He had plenty of time.
As Maja got into her cat she was stit feeling a bit down
Ever since the family of three moved in, including Glenn, who was not related to Maja by blood, their
constant encounters made her feel somewhat uncomfortable. Her father had tried to persuade her to
stay, but hesitated when she hinted at Glenn moving out. Nel felt that he owed Cristina and her
daughter Tricia so he was very indulgent with Glenn, Maja didn’t want to put him in an awkward
position, and she chose to move out. Now, she felt more like a stranger in her own home.
She didn’t need to clock in at the studio but on her way home her phone started to ring. Seeing the
name flashing on the screen, her mood worsened.
The ringing didn’t stop Maja took a deep breath and answered the call
Hello Ms. Casson”
The caller was Selena Casson, lan’s biological mother.
From the day Maamamed lan, her hoity–toity mother in law had always been dissatisfied with her. Maja
was well aware of this, so apart from putting on a show for the elders, she kept her distance from the
Raymonds.
need you to come to the Raymond residence. We need to discuss your divorce.”
Sekmadidn’t mince her words Afraid of Maja’s refusal she even took the initiative to say, “Maja you
should know, we only agreed to your marriage because we couldn’t go against the old man’s wishes.
Now that lan has taken over Raymond Group, he has the controlling power. The old man will probably
give up his stubbomness now.”
She meant that the divorce was inevitable.
Selena imagined Maja causing a scene, refusing to agree. After all, what woman would willingly give up
being the legal wife of her son?
Even if they never got his love, just being able to talk to him more would be enough.
But Maja’s response was neutral Alright, should I come over now?”
She didn’t even question it she seemed very calm. Like she had been waiting for this day.
Selena fell uneasy. It was only nght that the Raymond family kicked Maja out, but her indifferent
reaction made her feel like her son wasn’t charming enough,
For her own comfort, she said coldly, “As long as you agree, that’s all that mallers. You and lan are not
a good match, he deserves a better woman. Come over right away, I’ve already called lan, he’ll be
there soon.
Maapaused, lan was coming too?
If he knew that the person he spent the night entwined with was his soon–to–be ex wife, what would
his reaction be?
He was such a prideful man. He might feel nauseous, like he swallowed a bug and was unable to split
dut
Maja chuckled lightly, turning towards the Raymond mansion.
When Selena saw her her attitude was unpleasant, but since Maja didn’t demand compensation, she
didn’t make things difficult for her.
Don’t mind me being blunt. You’re well aware of your family’s situation. I’m not afraid to tell you, you’d
better advise your father if he’s not good at business, he should face reality sooner The Raymonds can
help him once, but not again. Not to mention, your stepmother’s been constantly interfering. Marrying
you has no benefits, and we have to take care of your extended family. It’s a burden. Even ham has to
be from a good place, you can only blame your poor backgound.”
Sitting on the sofa, Maja agreed, “Yes, I’m indeed not worthy to be Mr. Raymond’s wife.
In reality, besides the marriage certificate, they were no different from strangers, just bound by an
agreement
Divorce would be a relief for her
Selena felt a sense of defeat, like she had hit cotton. And for a moment she couldn’t tell if the woman in
front of her was acting or truly didn’t care.
The sound of car brakes came from outside. The servant waiting outside saw lon’s car stop and hurled
in to report “Malam, mister lan is back!”
Selena stood up happily and rushed outside.
Maja also looked towards the door Even though she was prepared to face lan, she fell suddenly
nervous inside
The car door opened
