Athena was still locked up by Tyler, but he hadn’t cut her off from the outside world. When her phone rang and Elsa’s name flashed on the screen, Athena barely reacted—she had nothing to say to her.
But Elsa’s first words caught her off guard.
“Athena, can we meet? I know who killed Kerwin.”
A flicker of emotion crossed Athena’s eyes, but when she opened her door, she found two bodyguards standing outside.
Tyler wasn’t letting her out.
On the other end, Elsa didn’t hear any response, so she kept talking. “I’ll admit, I never liked you. I was in love with Kerwin—really, deeply in love. Back then, my stepfather used to beat me. I’d hide in a corner, crying, and Kerwin would show up out of nowhere, like some kind of guardian angel. He’d bring me something to eat, comfort me, ask if I wanted to call the police. But I was too scared to do anything. After that, I always watched over him from afar. He was so kind, so talented. You liked him too, so you must know what it felt like to be around him—like all the good in the world was wrapped up in him. That’s why I took so many pictures of him. I used to be jealous of you, jealous because he was always protecting you. I thought you only got with Tyler because he was rich.”
“Athena, please meet me. I found out a huge secret tonight. Think of it as my way of making it up to you.”
“All right. Text me the address,” Athena replied.
As soon as the call ended, she dialed Maja.
Maja was reading to her child and was surprised that Athena reached out first. “Athena?”
“Maja, I need to get out for a bit. Can you call Tyler? He won’t let me leave.”
Maja didn’t really want to get involved in their relationship, but the idea of Athena being kept under lock and key made her sigh and rub her forehead. “Why is he keeping you inside?”
“Because I want to look into Kerwin’s death. I agreed to marry him—it was just a deal. Now he’s uncovered the truth, and he won’t let me get involved. Maja, please. I’m begging you.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
