Chapter 343
She took a deep breath, hearing Glenn Pennyfeather wreaking havoc outside.
Glenn had been in a foul mood these days, losing his temper over the smallest things.
There hadn’t been a major clash between Maja and Carlene, and Glenn was on edge with Dana being shipped off abroad.
Tricia didn’t give a damn about the Pennyfeather family’s future. She didn’t care how much of the inheritance she’d get. All she wanted was lan. Only with lan would her life be perfect.
She pushed open the door and went outside.
“Cool your jets, Glenn, Dana’s gone, and lan’s clearly siding with Maja, but we still have a shot.”
“A shot at what! Tricia, you may not know this, but Neil was hospitalized after he found out Cristina Perkins and Carter Booth were having an affair. Once he wakes up, our whole family’s gonna hit rocky waters, Cristina’s shares will be reclaimed, and then the Pennyfeather family will be entirely Maja’s!”
Tricia’s eyes widened in shock; she hadn’t known about Neil’s hospitalization. Her face turned sour.
Glenn took a deep breath.
“We’re running out of time. I thought lan would divorce Maja immediately to protect Carlene. I could’ve made Maja’s life a living hell, and Holden Raymond wouldn’t have said a word. Cristina would’ve tried to keep Neil unconscious, and the Pennyfeather family’s company would’ve been ours.”
“But as you can see, Maja hired two bodyguards, and Cristina hasn’t succeeded yet. Now, even Carter’s in the hospital, and I’m starting to wonder if someone found out about Cristina and Carter.”
Tricia went pale. She didn’t want to go back to being poor!
Taking a deep breath, she scoffed.
“Our grandparents are already involved. Let them create a scene at the hospital, saying they want to see Neil. Those two bodyguards can’t handle rowdy old folks. If they hurt them, they won’t be able to afford the compensation.”
Glenn chuckled.
“Not a bad idea; at least we can keep Neil unconscious for now. To stay in the Pennyfeather family, he’s gonna have to take one for the team.”
They didn’t care about Neil.
Glenn was blind with rage.
Tricia only had lan on her mind.
To them, Neil was just an obstacle that could be sacrificed anytime.
Somewhere in Greenfield.
Abram Pennyfeather and Hattie Zimmer watched Ferris Pennyfeather walk in with excitement.
“So, did the bank approve the loan?”
Ferris Pennyfeather, Neil’s brother, had gone to a prestigious university.
Back then, they were poor, and although Neil also got into university, their family could only afford Ferris Pennyfeather’s tuition. Even Neil, who was only a teenager, had to work part–time to pay for Ferris Pennyfeather’s education.
Ferris was now forty–eight. A difficult age when he had to support both his parents and children and constantly feared being laid off.
If he got fired, the monthly mortgage of three thousand dollars would suffocate his family.

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....
