Chapter 625
Nathan was just standing nearby, he knew what was going on inn’s mind, so he kept his mouth shut,
just standing quietly on the side.
“Got any coffee?”
“Yeah, I’ll whip it up right away.”
Maja nodded and tossed the cookie wrapper into a nearby bin.
A few minutester,n pulled her in and gave her lips a peck.
“Penny, you are natural at being a secretary.”
Before he could finish his sentence, the sound of a cup crashing came from the door.
Maja quickly pushedn away, seeing Nathan standing at the door, his hands covered in coffee, the
cup shattered on the floor, obviously startled by their antics.
He quickly picked up the shards, apologized hastily, and went off to prepare a fresh cup of coffee.
Maja frowned, starting to suspect thatn did that on purpose.
But what could have been his motive?
She turned her head to look atn, butn was already engrossed in some paperwork as if he had no
idea Nathan would show up.
The meeting with Judson went smoothly, with extra hands on deck, the Greenfield Gardens project was
expected to be finished in a fortnight.
“Penny, we’ll need you to do the formaldehyde testing on–site, because you handpicked all the
materials. Even though we used the best stuff, we still need to run a full test.”
Maja nodded, stood up and shook hands with Judson.
Judson nced at Maja, then atn, his gaze full of meaning.
Back at the Raymond Corporation, Carlene was waiting at the office entrance.
“Jan.”
Carlene looked worn out, the money that she borrowed from Edith was not enough, she felt that Edith
still wanted her to marryn.
Maja quickly retreated into the lift, evenn didn’t have time to stop her.
He turned his head to look at the waiting Carlene, his expression calm.
“What’s up?”
n, l,”
Before Carlene could finish that sentence, she started sobbing.
“Carlene, have I been spoiling you too much?”
Carlene froze, her lips quivered, and she kept silent.
“Stoping to me, the Shepard family has gotten enough from the Raymond Corporation. I can’t
stand greedy people.”
Carlene finally broke down, she grabbedn’s hand and said, “Don’t you like me at all?”
He used to think that since she was the woman Eric liked, he should show her some respect. But he
never thought she would be shamelessly persistent.
This time Carlene came to him hoping thatn could help the EverBest Group.
*Jeff, escort Ms. Shepard out.”
Carlene walked into the elevator crying.
When Carlene returned to the Shepard family, she had someone forge a letter from Eric.
She was always clever in that regard. In the past, to get close ton, she deliberately asked Eric a lot
of questions, remembering Eric’s handwriting and even keeping a draft paper.
Now, she found a handwriting expert, and based on the draft paper, forged a love letter from Eric.
The letter was short, the content simple–Carlene, I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
Carlene knew that Edith’s affection for Eric was profound, so she immediately went to find Edith with
that forged letter.
Edith was so shocked to hear that Eric had left this letter that she almost fainted.
Carlene started crying in front of Edith.
“Edith, this was Eric’s promise to me. Nown doesn’t care about the life and death of the Shepard
family; he is just calmly watching the Shepard family go bankrupt. I don’t know if Eric will be sad, but I

just can’t stand it, I want to go see Eric!”
Saying this, Carlene was about to headbutt the wall!
Edith quickly had someone stop her, then took the paper and looked at it carefully, tremblingly asking,
“When did Eric write this to you?”
Carlene was a bit embarrassed, her lips pursed.
“At that time, I always asked Eric for advice, and he wrote me this sentence.”
When Eric was still around, Carlene often sought him out.
Edith looked at the paper, tears flowing like a fountain. She would lose her rationality over anything
rted to Eric.
“Since Eric wrote you this letter, he must truly like you. I will talk tonter, you two should get
married as soon as possible! It will be best if you can get pregnant, then you can immediately be
a member of the Raymond family. Whether it’s a boy or a girl, the name must include Eric.”
Carlene’s eyes sparkled, she was so moved she didn’t know what to say.
“Edith, I’ll follow your arrangement?”
But Edith just cried while looking at the letter, unable to stop.
