Chapter 257

Neil’s been moved to a general ward, but he’s still out cold with oxygen mask

His head is all wrapped up in bandages, which makes him look like he’s aged a decade overnight.

Maja asked the doctor standing nearby.

“When will my father wake up?”

“Ms. Pennyfeather, your father was already weak before the accident, and his body’s been massively

drained. We can’t tell when he’ll wake up, it could be today or a month from now”

Maja’s eyes filled with tears at the news.

Cristina was freaking out knowing Neil had been moved to a general ward.

She was at the Pennyfeather family’s company and went straight to Carter, her voice filled with panic

“What do we do? Maja’s got two bodyguards posted at the door, I can’t find a chance to get in.“

Carter didn’t look too good either, I didn’t expect Neil to hold on for so long.

“Don’t sweat it, we got to keep Maja busy. We have a chance as long as she’s not at the hospital.”

Cristina was hanging on by a thread; she felt like breaking down whenever she saw Maja

“Didn’t you say Glenn was interested in Maja? Now it’s just you, me, and Glenn here, and Maja doesn’t

even know where the front door is. We can secretly take control of all the company stocks, then have

Glenn seduce Maja, preferably sleep with her, then she’ll be on our side, and we won’t have anything to

fear.”

Carter pulled her into a hug with a sharp look in his eyes

“Once Neil wakes up, tell him Maja doesn’t give a damn about his life; that’ll surely worsen his

condition.”

Cristina was calmed by his words, and went to find Glenn immediately

Glenn was also on edge; it was not the best time to go against Carter, considering their fates were now

intertwined.

“Glenn, make a move on Maja. She’s been neglected by lan for years, probably lonely. If you can

satisfy her, she’ll listen to you”

Glenn knew he couldn’t delay any further, or they’d be in deep trouble once Neil woke up and got

lawyers involved.

His eyes narrowed, remembering when he bumped into Maja at the hospital, she was buying that kind

of medicines, probably quite wild in private.

She’s just playing innocent

A surge of heat coursed through him. Maja was indeed beautiful and unique. He needed to come up

with a plan fast

Just as Maja was about to return to the hotel, the construction team called, asking her to come to the

site

She rushed over, only to find all the workers looking nervous. She had a bad feeling about this.

Entering the first floor of Greenfield Gardens, she saw a leaning pillar in the middle and felt her anger

rise.

This wasn’t a load-bearing pillar, so its issue wouldn’t affect the building’s stability.

However, it was part of her design, and now it was leaning, clearly because the workers were careless

while constructing the other walls. This pillar was now unusable and had to be obliterated.

Meaning her original design needed adjustments

This mistake should never have happened.

When one worker said, “Ms. Penny, we’re truly sorry, Maja’s face turned cold

The worker, responsible for demolishing that wall had some family issues, wasn’t focused, and

accidentally applied too much force, causing this pillar to lean.

Silverstone Enterprises had a good reputation in the industry and never had this problem before.

The worker looked guilty and scared

“We’ve contacted the executives at Silverstone Enterprises. If you have any compensation demands,

you can negotiate with them.”

Maja didn’t say a word, her aura icy.

This couldn’t be solved by negotiation. The problem was that her design needed to be revised!

The pillar was part of the details in the area. She had planned everything, even the lighting. Now that

the pillar’s gone, the sunlight will change,

she can’t use her original design.
