Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 581

The car pulled up to the cemetery in no time; the burial needed to be done before sunset, ideally before noon.

The funeral crew was already waiting for her. Dressed in black and clutching the urn, she made her way to the selected grave.

The funeral staff nodded at her in greeting, then indicated that the funeral process was complete.

Maja quietly followed the instructions from start to finish; her tears had long since dried up.

However, as she placed the burial items one by one, her eyes welled up with heat.

Ten minutes later, the funeral staff asked her if they could begin sealing the grave.

Maja took a deep breath and managed a smile that looked worse than crying.

"Go ahead."

The funeral was over.

Maja placed flowers in front of the tombstone and knelt for half an hour before letting the funeral team she hired leave.

In the end, she was the only one left here, as always.

In the end, she was always the only one left.

She didn't know what to say to Neil; she just remembered his last wish.

If she found his and Lillian's child, she should tell him at the grave.

Maja knelt until her knees hurt. When she got up, her legs were numb from lack of water, and her lips were cracked.

She licked her lips and walked down the steps to the street, where she saw Carol standing in front of the car.

Carol, usually a vibrant and beautiful woman, was also dressed in black today.

The moment she saw her, Maja's tears fell.

"Carol."

Maja hugged Carol and cried for a while.

Carol patted her back and said, "Get in the car first; you have dark circles."

Maja felt light-headed, but that's when Zoey called.

"Mr. Pennyfeather, Shawn's information has been organized, and now I need to ask you if you want to announce the termination of the contract with the original company on social media?"

"Not yet; I need to deal with the Shepard family first."

Zoey hung up the phone.

Inside the car, Carol sat in the driver's seat while Maja sat in the passenger seat.

Carol asked her, "There are nine days left until your divorce with Ian. What's your plan?"

"I'm thinking of starting my own company."
