Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 1433

“I’m coming with you.” As the words left her lips, Beck and Ian both reached for her wrist

simultaneously. “No way.” Beck, a member of the Sanders family, knew all too well the precarious state

of the family affairs. With their father incapacitated and shares having been transferred to what

everyone considered an outsider, showing up tonight was an invitation to criticism and malice that

rivaled even York’s. But York was just a hothead who caused trouble in the open. Beck took a deep

breath. “You head back with Ian for now. Stay out of the Sanders’ business for a bit. Grandpa and

Grandma are understanding folks, but Dad’s been looking for you on the down-low for years. Hell, I

only found out recently myself, and I bet the old folks are clueless. So, those transfer documents—

having them is like being a sitting duck with a priceless gem.” Maja’s brow furrowed with concern. What

would happen to Beck and Dylan if she didn’t show up at the Sanders’ gathering? Could they withstand

the sneers and jeers that were sure to come? Beck gave her a gentle push towards Ian. “Aren’t there

more pressing matters for you to attend to? I’m counting on Dad to wake up soon, and finding that

antidote is on you now. Sorry, Maja, for dragging you into this mess with the Sanders.” Ian wrapped his

arm around Maja, ushering her into the car. Maja was beside herself with worry, but Ian rested a hand

on her belly. “I don’t like the idea of leaving you in North America alone, but I’m even less keen on

taking you to that place. You’re pregnant, for heaven’s sake. No fooling around.” Maja looked down at

her stomach, falling silent. Just as Ian was about to start the car, the chime of her phone broke the

silence—an unfamiliar text message. [Come over with Beck. We’d like to see you.] No need for

guesses—it was clearly the doing of the two elder Sanders. Unfamiliar with the old grudges of the

Sanders family, Maja knew an audience was non-negotiable when a direct summon came from Beck’s

grandparents. She rolled down the window and showed the message to Beck. “No getting out of it. Get

in.” Beck’s expression turned grave. The villa was a sight of chaos—wreaths around the perimeter,

puddles on the ground, a total mess that was enough to fray anyone’s nerves. But the anxiety paled in

comparison to the prospect of facing Beck’s grandparents. Ian, unfazed, simply let Beck direct him and

drove on. When in doubt, face it out. As they reached the castle, Maja got her first true sense of the

Sanders’ wealth. Their fortune was

castle in North America—a testament to more than just wealth. The massive iron gates slowly swung

open, and the car drove inward. The size of the castle was daunting—it took a good ten minutes of

driving before they reached the central building. The bodyguards, all in sleek black tailcoats,

approached to open the car doors as they pulled to a stop. “Mr. Sanders, welcome.” Beck stepped out,

staring at the grand entrance, letting out a faint sigh. Maja couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong?” “It’s

just I haven’t seen Grandpa and Grandma in years, maybe over a decade. They handed the reins to

Dad and ever since, they’ve been living like hermits, barely touching worldly matters.” A decade without

meddling in the family business? This old couple was truly an enigma. The grand doors opened slowly,

revealing an interior that could be described as opulent, reminiscent of the aristocracy of the 18th

century. On the grandest sofa sat two elders, who were dressed in finer. Both elders wore emerald

bracelets, their faces the picture of benevolence. On the other sofas sat various members of the

Sanders family, with York standing out due to his undisguised animosity. The family was large. Over

twenty people were present, too many to recognize at a glance. But with the presence of the elders, no

one dared to speak out, no matter their dissatisfaction. All eyes were on Maja, appraising her, as if

trying to discern her worth.
