Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 411

Maja kept her lips sealed until the living room door was closed. Only then did she blink her sore eyes.

There's a certain kind of hurt that only came when she’s utterly heartbroken, like a lump in her throat.

That's how Maja felt like someone was choking her, making her breathing hard.

Last night, Neil had set forth some conditions. They had left her feeling defeated, but she had no choice but to accept them.

She didn't blame Neil, though. She understood him completely.

If she was in Neil's place, facing greedy parents, and finding out his late wife's daughter was not his by blood, anyone would crack under pressure.

Neil hadn't lashed out at her, showing remarkable restraint.

Maja spent the entire night going through documents, thinking that once the Pennyfeather family got through their crisis, she would hand over the company to Tricia.

Even though she knew Tricia would gloat.

But now, she didn't want to do that anymore.

Neil had always been soft-hearted towards the leaders of the Pennyfeather group. That just showed what a genuinely good guy he was.

In the last stage of his life, he had given all his kindness to Maja. She felt it was her duty to carry on the legacy of the Pennyfeather family.

What she thought was just a mission now made her feel stronger.

She pulled out her phone and sent Neil a text.

"Dad, I won't let the Pennyfeather group go bankrupt."

Neil was in his room. He was in the late stages of liver cancer. The pain was so bad he couldn't sleep.

Seeing Maja's text, he coughed a few times, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with a tissue.

His trembling fingers wanted to reply, but in the end, he just sighed.

Maja washed her face, looking at her red eyes in the mirror from a night of no sleep.

She took care of her face, and by noon, the lawyer already had the paperwork for the stock transfer ready and personally delivered it to her at RosenGarden.

Maja took the paperwork straight to the Pennyfeather group.

The last time she had been there, the senior leaders had all recognized her.

Now that the contract with ByteWise Technologies was cancelled, the Pennyfeather group was pulled back from the brink of disaster, and the leaders were back to their old slack ways.

Half an hour before Maja arrived, Neil had already posted the news on the company's website that he was transferring all of his shares to Maja and had made a will stating that she would be the new CEO.
