The two bodyguards had already hauled Omar to the first floor. They initially planned to shove him out the stairs, but they feared getting caught by the paparazzi and causing a scandal for the Star Movie group.
So, they dragged Omar to the flower bed and dumped him in.
Omar had driven himself here and probably didn't expect to pass out from Maja's fury. Even more unexpected was that instead of calling an ambulance, she had him tossed out.
When Omar woke up, his suit was covered in dust, and passing cars stirred up more.
He lay there in the roadside flower bed, with no one bothering to take him to a hospital.
Word quickly spread in the circle about how Maja had dumped an unconscious Omar out of the building.
Many people found it hard to believe. Everyone knew that Omar was a slippery character and wouldn't take this lying down.
Plus, the Casson family were bound to choose him as the next heir. Eden had already made that clear.
Didn't Maja fear his revenge?
Everyone assumed Omar would strike back at any cost.
But hours passed, there was no sign of action from Omar.
Maja personally sent Cornelia off on a private plane in the early morning. Omar had no way of getting any info.
Cornelia wouldn't be back for two months, so she held Maja's hand tightly, her eyes reddening, unable to say a word.
Maja just hugged her tightly and warned her, "The director is notorious for his bad temper. Call us if he gives you a hard time, but don't get into a fight with him. His reputation precedes him in North America. He's chewed out a lot of stars, and it's not personal."
"Mr. Pennyfeather, I'll repay your kindness."
Maja didn't quite understand the significance of that statement yet.
Maja stood there as the plane took off, craning her neck to watch it until it was out of sight.
She wasn't worried about Omar's revenge at all. She heard he woke up in the afternoon, but he was too busy searching for Cornelia by the river to bother with revenge.
Alma was confined in the Casson family's mansion, unable to leave. After this lesson, Omar wouldn't let Alma interact with others.
Alma, without the Casson family's support, was no threat.
A week later, Omar's men were still searching for Cornelia but to no avail.
Omar officially took over the Casson family. Those who didn't obey him were sent off to outlying areas.

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....
