Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 839

Alma was full of resentment, but she wasn't the heir to the Casson family, so she couldn't directly leverage their connections to solve her problems.

Besides, with Ian backing Maja up, she knew he wouldn't just stand by if she tried anything.

She had originally planned to pressure Maja into bankruptcy through public opinion, but now she'd just brought more trouble onto herself.

"That witch!" She cursed Maja angrily while hastily dialing a friend in North America.

"Ms. Sanders, remember when you told me your brother was in Greenfield? Could I trouble him to give me a hand? My cousin's woman is a sneaky one, she's using public opinion to attack me."

Ms. Sanders sounded rather annoyed.

"Alma, you still haven't handled this mess?"

"Sorry, the woman's a real piece of work."

Ms. Sanders sighed and said, "Alright, I'll get my brother to contact you. But just so you know, if you want to become my sister-in-law, you're going to have to step up your game."

Alma felt humiliated by her words.

But when she thought of the man she loved, her heart skipped a beat.

If she could get rid of Maja and please Ms. Sanders, she could finally be with him.

She kept fantasizing about this scenario, unaware that the online uproar was escalating and that even the Casson family was caught up in the mess. Soon she got a call from home.

She wasn't someone of importance in the Casson family, and causing such trouble would definitely get her scolded.

"I'll handle it soon. Mom, don't worry. By this afternoon, all this buzz will die down."

"Alma, please don't drag the Casson family into this mess. If the higher-ups take notice, it'll affect us too. Everyone needs to lay low right now."

"I know; I'll calm things down as soon as possible."

After hanging up, Alma immediately went to find Beck.

Maja didn't emerge from her room until 9 in the morning. When she came downstairs, she saw Maria and Ian chatting.

"Mr. Raymond, how's the soup?"

"Good."
