Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 425

"How long have you been working here?"

"Two years."

This meant she knew even before Ferris and Hattie Zimmer that the Neils lived in a villa and owned a company in Greenfield. She just never let on.

She must have been the one who tipped off Neil last night.

Maja noticed that May Chandler's skin was bruised underneath her sleeve. It seemed that Ferris had never stopped abusing her.

May suddenly knelt down when she saw that Maja had nothing more to say.

"Ms. Pennyfeather, please don't fire me."

Maja was taken aback and quickly helped her up. "What are you doing?"

May lowered her head. "I know you don't really like us."

Maja didn't speak. Her impression of May was not deep. But seeing the small, frail woman with a face full of hardship and skin covered in welts from being whipped, she felt a pang of sympathy.

"I don't plan to fire you. Just cooperate with the police and give your statement."

May, afraid that Maja would change her mind, quickly lowered her head and left.

Maja only rubbed her temples after she left.

May had been working here for two years, and Neil never realized that she was Ferris’ wife.

As she was about to open a file, a message came from Ian to her private number.

That meant the message was for Ian's wife.

Just a simple command.

[Keep it.]

Then, a transfer notification appeared on her phone—a whopping four million.

After a night, Ian finally remembered to appease his wife in name.

Maja smirked, knowing what the money meant.

One was that it was a compensation for her ordeal last night.

Two, it was to shut her up so she wouldn't complain to Holden, or else he wouldn't be polite.

Maja's eyes were calm.

[Mr. Raymond, if you need to sign divorce papers, I'm always ready.]

She had been kept in the dark all night, and Ian didn't see her face.

But he told Neil that he knew her character.

Why would he say that?

He didn't know her at all, but he spoke as if she had made a big mistake. His words were almost slanderous.
