Chapter 358


    Maja got a call from the hospital, telling her Glenn had been in an ident and was now in aa.


    The doctors were notifying contacts on Glenn’s phone.


    By the time Maja arrived, Cristina was already there, sobbing her eyes out.


    She held Glenn’s phone in her hand, looking at the messages Maja had sent him, her eyes filled with


    spite.


    “You bitch! Did you set him up? You’re a criminal, and I’m calling the cops on you!”


    Cristina moved to p Maja.


    But Maja caught her hand and flung it away without hesitation.

    “Cristina, did the doctor’s reporte out? I just wanted to talk to Glenn about the business. You know


    the Pennyfeather family’spany’s been having some trouble. What’s wrong with sending these


    messages? And it was him who chased after me; you should know what he was thinking, right?”


    But Cristina couldn’t ept the fact that Glenn was in aa: She charged at Maja.


    Maja was knocked back, her back hitting the wall hard. She only felt a pain in her chest, which was


    unbearable.


    Cristina went berserk, punching and kicking Maja.


    “Scum! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”


    With Carter missing and Glenn in aa, Cristina finally lost it.


    Maja couldn’t escape the attack of a person out of control, and her hand was soon scratched deeply by


    fingernails.


    Cristina even viciously tried to blind Maja.


    “Drop dead!”


    A few nurses rushed over, trying to pull Cristina away, but failed.


    The nurses screamed for help.


    Security! Call for security!”


    In no time, two burly security guards rushed in and finally pulled Cristina off Maja. But Maja’s hand was


    scratched and bloodied.


    Cristina’s nails were all bloody.


    She red at Maja viciously and even tried to kick her.


    “Scum! I should have killed you when I had the chance; you are a nightmare!”


    Maja looked down at the back of her hand. The wound scratched by fingernails hurt more than a knife


    cut and was more prone to infection.


    Cristina was about to have another fit when a nurse called out from a distance.


    “Mr. Pennyfeather is awake! Quickly! His familye over, Mr. Pennyfeather is awake.”


    At this, Maja forgot about the pain in her hand and hurried to Neil’s ward.


    Cristina was stunned on the spot hearing this.


    Maja walked into the ward briskly and saw Neil open his eyes, and he was obviously much better.


    The nurses carefully removed the tubes from him.


    Neil had lost a lot of weight. He looked at Maja, confused.


    “Maja…”


    His voice was low, like being squeezed out from deep in his chest due to a long period of silence.


    Maja’s eyes reddened, and she quickly grabbed his hand.


    “You’ve been in aa for a long time. How are you feeling? Why did you end up in the hospital?”


    Neil coughed a few times, couldn’t grasp the shes in his mind, just felt angry, so angry he was about


    to suffocate.


    He didn’t answer and just kept coughing.


    The doctor exined.


    “Mr. Pennyfeather has suffered a great trauma, not only physically but also mentally. I suggest you not

    ask this question for now and let him rest properly.”


    Maja epted this advice, just hoping he would recover soon.


    Neil couldn’t remember why he ended up in the hospital.


    “I’ve been in the hospital for so long; there must be a dy in thepany’s affairs. Has Wyatt


    called?”


    Maja lowered her head, “You need to rest now.”


    What Neil was most worried about was thepany. He quickly asked, “Where’s my phone?”


    Maja knew she couldn’t persuade him.


    “Wyatt is dead.”


    A hint of shock shed in Neil’s eyes, and his cough became more severe.


    “How could it be… wasn’t he always in good health?”


    “The police investigation concluded that he died of alcohol poisoning.”


    “Wyatt quit drinking a long time ago.”


    “The case is closed. There’s no way to investigate this matter any further.”


    Neil was emotional hearing that a person he had been with for so long was dead. He tried to get out of


    bed but was held back by Maja.


    “You need to stay in the hospital and rest now.”


    Neil pushed her hand away, identally touching her wound.


    She winced in pain.


    That’s when Neil noticed the blood on her hand, “What happened?”


    As soon as his words fell, Cristina walked in through the door..


    She had heard their conversation outside the door and felt secretly relieved that Neil had even


    forgotten why he hade to the hospital!


    A look of triumph appeared on Cristina’s face, and then she started toin to him.
