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.
