Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Maja's eyes suddenly brimmed with tears as she placed Beck's hand against her cheek without uttering a word.

Beck, feeling even more guilty, cleared his throat awkwardly, "I'll take care of this for you, don't worry about Queena. As long as

He tried to pull his hand free, but Maja's grip was firm, and her eyes were still red, likely from crying.

His heart ached with a mixture of pain and tenderness as he drew closer, enveloping her entirely in his embrace.

When Maja woke with a start, her immediate concern was to check on lan's health.

"I'm really okay," he insisted.
