Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 1478

She let out a sigh, and heard Patric echo it with one of his own. “Maja, I wanna go home, leave this

island, head back to Greenfield Gardens.” With a motherly gesture, Maja shoved a cookie into his

mouth. “Eat up. We’ll talk once you’ve had something in your stomach.” She dared not leave their

makeshift shelter under the bridge, especially during daylight. Who knew where those thugs might be

lurking? Escaping with two kids in tow was a fool’s errand. After munching on a cookie, Maja told

Quentin to catch some Z’s. But Quentin asked, “You planning on heading out tonight?” “Yeah, I need to

check on those goons from last night. There seemed to be two factions; one after me, the other caught

up in some infighting. They probably grabbed Ian, I’ve got to see what’s up.” A flicker of something

passed through Quentin’s eyes. Should he stage another drama tonight while she’s out? He’d made

contact with his own crew, confirming that last night’s villa explosion was the handiwork of K’s people.

Forbidden Island was Quentin’s turf. Young but savvy, he’d kept it free from K’s influence, though K’s

minions were certainly around. Probably from the moment Maja set foot here, K’s eyes were on her.

But out of respect for Quentin’s domain, they hadn’t made any bold moves. Impatience nipped at

Quentin. He loathed that sanctimonious facade. The trio holed up under the bridge for the day. As dusk

settled, Maja prepared to leave, instructing Quentin, “If those guys find this place, take Patric and run.

Forget about me. You have my number. Call anytime.” “Sure.” Quentin’s lips curled into a sinister smile.

Tonight would mark Maja’s downfall. Once she was caught and subjected to harsh questioning. Maja

patted Quentin’s head, her voice laced with concern. “Quentin, you’re troubled. Remember, I’m here if

you need me.” His eyelashes fluttered as he casually inquired, “That Jellyfish Seal, where is it exactly?”

Maja froze. Why would he ask about that? “Maja, will you tell me?”

After a few seconds, she replied, “What’s there to hide? I did bring it to Forbidden Island, but I’m aware

of the dangers it harbors. So I buried it in our yard on Outer Island. In the future, you can help me

retrieve it.” That yard? Impossible. He’d never seen her move it. Maja ruffled his hair, “Quentin, why ask

about it? Do you want it? It’s dangerous.” He shrugged off her hand, his eyes darkening. She was likely

lying. She wouldn’t leave something so important in that yard. A cold smirk danced on his lips. It

seemed he’d have to rely on her capture tonight. Only torture would loosen her tongue. He had given

her a chance, and she failed to appreciate it. “I got it, Maja. Go ahead, I’ll take care of Patric.” If trouble

didn’t come knocking tonight, Patric would continue to be his pawn. Maja made to leave but paused,

turned back, and placed a single piece of candy in Quentin’s hand. “The last one.” Quentin’s palm

burned slightly at the touch. He instinctively wanted to discard the candy but feared being too obvious.

“Are you treating me like a kid?” “Aren’t you a kid? I’ll be back soon. Last night’s mess won’t repeat

itself.” Leaving the candy behind, Maja departed. She could never have guessed that the troubled

youth she’d met was none other than Mr. Gellar from BK. She’d seen his despair, his bitterness, his

sense of helplessness regarding his future – she knew it all too well. She had instinctively come to care

for him as if he were a younger brother. Just like she had, at that vulnerable age of seventeen or

eighteen.
