Chapter 257
Neil’s been moved to a general ward, but he’s still out cold with oxygen mask
His head is all wrapped up in bandages, which makes him look like he’s aged a decade overnight.
Maja asked the doctor standing nearby.
“When will my father wake up?”
“Ms. Pennyfeather, your father was already weak before the accident, and his body’s been massively drained. We can’t tell when he’ll wake up, it could be today or a month from now”
Maja’s eyes filled with tears at the news.
Cristina was freaking out knowing Neil had been moved to a general ward.
She was at the Pennyfeather family’s company and went straight to Carter, her voice filled with panic
“What do we do? Maja’s got two bodyguards posted at the door, I can’t find a chance to get in.“
Carter didn’t look too good either, I didn’t expect Neil to hold on for so long.
“Don’t sweat it, we got to keep Maja busy. We have a chance as long as she’s not at the hospital.”
Cristina was hanging on by a thread; she felt like breaking down whenever she saw Maja
“Didn’t you say Glenn was interested in Maja? Now it’s just you, me, and Glenn here, and Maja doesn’t even know where the front door is. We can secretly take control of all the company stocks, then have Glenn seduce Maja, preferably sleep with her, then she’ll be on our side, and we won’t have anything to fear.”
Carter pulled her into a hug with a sharp look in his eyes
“Once Neil wakes up, tell him Maja doesn’t give a damn about his life; that’ll surely worsen his condition.”
Cristina was calmed by his words, and went to find Glenn immediately
Glenn was also on edge; it was not the best time to go against Carter, considering their fates were now intertwined.
“Glenn, make a move on Maja. She’s been neglected by lan for years, probably lonely. If you can satisfy her, she’ll listen to you”
Glenn knew he couldn’t delay any further, or they’d be in deep trouble once Neil woke up and got lawyers involved.
His eyes narrowed, remembering when he bumped into Maja at the hospital, she was buying that kind of medicines, probably quite wild in private.
She’s just playing innocent
A surge of heat coursed through him. Maja was indeed beautiful and unique. He needed to come up with a plan fast
Just as Maja was about to return to the hotel, the construction team called, asking her to come to the site
She rushed over, only to find all the workers looking nervous. She had a bad feeling about this.
Entering the first floor of Greenfield Gardens, she saw a leaning pillar in the middle and felt her anger rise.
This wasn’t a load-bearing pillar, so its issue wouldn’t affect the building’s stability.
However, it was part of her design, and now it was leaning, clearly because the workers were careless while constructing the other walls. This pillar was now unusable and had to be obliterated.
Meaning her original design needed adjustments
This mistake should never have happened.
When one worker said, “Ms. Penny, we’re truly sorry, Maja’s face turned cold

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....
