Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 2206

The more Tyler thought about it, the angrier he became. He strode toward the door, pausing only to give his bodyguards a curt order.

“Make sure she doesn’t leave this place.”

He didn’t want her running off and causing any more trouble.

Tyler stormed out, not even sure where he wanted to go. Eventually, his feet carried him to a bar, hoping to drown his frustration with a few drinks—and, as luck would have it, that’s where he ran into Maggie.

What was Maggie doing here in Greenfield?

Standing at her side was Abner. Abner kept his eyes fixed ahead, clearly intent on ignoring Tyler, but at the sight of him, Abner hesitated, slowing his steps.

Tyler, desperate for a distraction, pushed open the door to a private booth. “Care to join me for a drink?”

Abner didn’t hesitate; he walked right in. Maggie followed quickly, trying to maintain her air of haughty confidence, but she couldn’t quite disguise how much she feared Abner. With him around, she didn’t even dare raise her voice.

After all, it was Abner who’d ruthlessly purged the Olson family years ago, crushing dissent with an iron fist. There were rumors about his shady dealings behind closed doors, and most of those who had dared to cross him were long gone.

Maggie perched nervously on the edge of the couch, her hands pressed against her knees. When Abner finally spoke, his tone was casual but carried an underlying threat.

“So, how’s the wedding planning with Marlon coming along?”

Maggie’s hands clenched tightly in her lap. Just the mention of Marlon made her shiver.

Last time she’d gone to see him at the Kellers’ estate, she’d walked in on him punishing someone. Blood was splattered across the floor, but nobody in the room seemed to care. They’d clearly seen it all before.

Maggie had never been brave—she’d fainted right there on the spot. When she woke up, she’d been dumped at the Olson family’s front door like yesterday’s trash.

That bastard Marlon!
