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

lan pulls through, that's what matters, right?"

The more he spoke, the less convinced he sounded.

There were two reasons for his unease, firstly, he had concealed the fact that lan was still alive, and secondly, he had let Queena

get away.

lan had been laid up for another whole day.

When he awoke, the room was bathed in sunlight.

Turning his head, he saw Maja lying beside him.

Maja was sleeping soundly, her hand tightly clutching his.

They were in the master bedroom of Greenfield Gardens, a place he knew all too well.

A wave of tenderness washed over him, and he felt little desire to get out of bed.

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.

But Maja wouldn't hear of it and proceeded to give him a thorough examination right there on the bed.

His injuries had mostly healed, but the issue of being poisoned was something that wouldn't resolve anytsoon.
