Chapter 577


    When Carlene got back to the Shepard family, a bodyguard immediately came in to report to her.


    “Miss Shepard, we’ve figured it out. The middleman in this deal was Penny. These guys weren’t willing


    to spill at first, but the trailers around and the food delivery guys were all paid by Penny.”


    This was something that could be traced back.


    Carlene’s pupils shrunk in an instant, her face turning ashen. Could it be Maja who pushed the


    Shepard family to this extreme?


    She felt endless humiliation.


    Having lost to Maja so many times, every time Maja got involved, she got a little unhinged.


    Then she made a call ton.


    n, Penny was involved in this too, probably because of the quarrel we had at the yacht party. But I


    didn’t really hurt her; could you maybe ask her to take it easy? The impact on the Shepard family has


    been huge; stocks are tanking. I know I offended her, but there’s no need to push me into a corner,


    right? Could you maybe talk to her?”


    Carlene was doing it on purpose!


    She was trying to stir up trouble between the two.


    Judging by the three–month timeline, they were only ten days away from divorce.


    If Maja kept her identity hidden, there’s no way she’d reveal it now.


    Carlene was betting on it!


    Ifn could solve this for her and at the same time cut ties with Maja, it would be a win–win.


    Carlene let out a coldugh. After hanging up the phone, she smashed her makeup mirror in anger.


    After hanging up, he immediately called Maja.

    But the call kept going to voicemail, and when he got it, he was blocked.


    Ever since he heard what she said in the car that day, he had been distancing himself, simply not


    willing to admit his feelings for her.


    But he couldn’t ignore thete–night awakenings, where he could still smell her scent. Thinking of their


    intimate nights, his blood was boiling.


    He waited until five in the evening, then asked Ryan to call Maja, found out she was in a coffee shop,


    and then drove there.


    At this time, Maja had just finished signing a contract with Shawn. Shawn was busy changing


    Maja was alone here. Neil’s body had been cremated. She didn’t want it to remain, and he would


    probably feel embarrassed too.


    Thinking about this, her nose turned sour.


    Tomorrow was her father’s funeral, and she had to go to the cemetery.


    She took a deep sip of the strong coffee, the bitterness spreading in her mouth and making her feel


    slightly better.


    She hadn’t rested for five days, dealing with the EverBest Group’s affairs and Neil’s matters.


    All preparations were done; she wanted to witness the end of the EverBest Group herself.


    Suddenly a shadow appeared in front of her. She looked up and sawn.


    The coffee shop was somehow empty, leaving just the two of them.


    The sun shone on the ss window of the coffee shop, andn sat facing the sun.


    He was picky about his coffee; he didn’t drink the coffee here; he just quietly watched her.


    Maja’s coffee was almost finished. She asked him.


    “Do you need something from me?”


    Her tone was strange, as if she didn’t know him.

    ian chuckled, finding the situation both hrious and annoying


    He had never met a woman with such a short fuse


    “You’re giving the EverBest Group a hard time?


    “Yes”


    “Because Carlene pissed you off?”


    Yes.”
