Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245

Cristina paused, looking at Neil’s face. Neil, in his fifties, had some graying temples due to stress. Yes, if Neil woke up, she and her two kids would be out on the streets and the entire company would belong to Maja. 

“Don’t worry, you’re still Neil’s wife. If something happens to him, the company will be yours. No one can threaten your position.” 

Cristina was somewhat swayed by his words. 

Carter’s eyes flickered, he walked up to her, cupped her face, and said, “And don’t you enjoy being with me? I can satisfy you, we’ll have money. and I’ll treat Glenn and Tricia well.” 

Cristina was moved by Carter’s words and let go of his arm. Carter stood up, dragging Nell to the top of the staircase. He planned to push Neil down the stairs. 

Given that Neil was already in the late stages of liver cancer and had just endured a shock, a fall from here would likely and his life. Cristina couldn’t bear to watch and turned around, her body shaking. 

Carter kicked Neil down the stairs. Neil fell from the high place, his forehead hitting something sharp and immediately starting to bleed Carter waited for ten minutes, making sure that Neil was barely breathing before he pulled out Cristina’s phone 

“You need to call an ambulance now. You must get him to a hospital, otherwise Maja will get suspicious.” 

Cristina, shaking, took the phone. She was a mess. Carter held her tightly. “Pull yourself together. You have to act like nothing happened, or it will all fall apart!” 

Cristina’s face turned pale, her lips trembling. “Alright.” 

Carter took a deep breath, and went into the bedroom to get his coat. 

“I have to leave. It’s the best way to avoid suspicion.” 

Cristina immediately called an ambulance, getting Neil to the hospital. Carter reminded her again not to give herself away, as Maja was not to be trifled with 

“Once the Pennyfeather family’s company is ours, I’ll give you anything you want.” 

Cristina’s eyes hardened. For her kids, she must stay strong! If anyone was to blame, it was Neil for deciding to discharge himself from the 

hospital today. He had it coming! 

30.m 

Maja got a call from the hospital, telling her that Nell had fallen down the stairs and was in critical condition. 

All her exhaustion vanished instantly. She quickly put on her coat, her face turning pale as a ghost. She had been to this hospital before and knew the doctor in charge, and that’s why he called her. When Maja got to the hospital, she saw Cristina sitting alone in the hallway, but she didn’t seem worried. 

Was she seeing things? 

Cristina was clearly shocked to see Maja. Why would Maja be here? 

Maja walked up, her tone icy, “Didn’t I already take him to the hospital before I went to Crystalbrook Valley? You should’ve known he had liver cancer and let him rest in the hospital for a few more days. Why did you let him go home?” 

Cristina was flustered but recalled Carter’s words and rebuked back forcefully. 

“Are you questioning me? Look at how much your dad has sacrificed for the family. If it weren’t for the Raymond Corporation suddenly blocking the project, he wouldn’t be like this. It’s all on you for not taking good care of lan! Because of the company’s problems, he didn’t want to stay in the hospital and secretly went home. I happened to give the servants the day off, and no one knew he went back. By the time I found him, there was blood all over the floor. If I was any later, he could’ve been dead!” 

Cristina sneered, looking Maja up and down. 

“You dare to question me!” 

Maja didn’t respond, she just quietly sat down on a nearby chair. 

Cristina’s fingers were trembling. She didn’t understand how Maja got here so soon. She was thinking, if Neil could be saved, she would surely pull his oxygen tube. That was the only way to solve the problem for good. Since she had done it, she had to make sure it worked! 

Maja closed her eyes, only hoping that the door to the resuscitation room would open soon. Even though she and Neil had many differences, he was still her father, her family who had been with her all these years. After her mom passed away, she and her father were the closest people 

If Cristina hadn’t appeared, their relationship would have remained good. 

Maja’s eyes reddened, but she held back her tears. 

Cristina kept observing Maja. Seeing that she didn’t suspect anything. Cristina finally breathed a sigh of relief. 

Neil couldn’t survive. Otherwise, she and Carter would be done for. Her children would be done for too. 

The resuscitation lasted until 7 a.m. the next day, and Neil was wheeled out 

Cristina immediately stood up, her voice trembling. “How’s my husband? You must do your best.” 

“Mr. Pennyfeather has been resuscitated, but he needs to be in the ICU for a few days. If he can’t pull through, then… 

The rest was left unsaid, but everyone understood.
