Chapter 495
Maja crashed at Rosewood Manor until 8 in the evening, waking up feeling like she had been beaten with a stick.
Maria had made some soup, which she sipped on.
‘Ms. Pennyfeather, you look like you’re going through something. Need a doctor to take a look?”
Maja shook her head and said, “No need.”
Maria could only sigh, “Well, you better take care of yourself. You look like you’ve lost a ton of weight.”
Maja touched her face, about to say something, when a text from RosenGarden community management popped
up
“Dear homeowner, during our routine patrol last night, we noticed some activity in your apartment while the
surveillance system was down. We’ve received a complaint from a neighbor suggesting you might be involved in
illegal activities The police am now involved, we hope you’ll cooperate
Bloody Rita
Maja was ticked off. After dinner, she drove to RosenGarden and there she was, Rita with the cops, looking all smug.
It seemed like things with Ryan Elston were going well for her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon seeing Maja, Rita pointed right at her.
“There she is! Those two guys were coming out of her apartment. Her personal life has always been a mess”
Maja ignored her and told the police, “I haven’t been staying here recently, the place was probably burgled. I hope
the police can help investigate this.” Rita butted in.
“Don’t play innocent! You know what you did, you’re just scared that others will find out.”
Maja smirked. “Miss Rita, I’d like to have a word with you in private, can we talk over there?”
She gestured towards a comer down the hallway.
Rita thought Maja was scared and snorted, “If you want to apologize, do it here, in front of everyone.”
“I don’t want to apologize. I want to talk to you about Ryan.”
Rita frowned and followed Maja to the corner
“What’s this about?”
Before she could finish, Maja slapped her twice
Rita’s face instantly swelled up, and she tasted blood.
Maja was already in a sour mood, and Rita was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. And she certainly
wouldn’t slap someone in front of the cops; that’s why she made up an excuse to get Rita away.
This part of the hallway wasn’t covered by surveillance cameras, Maja had made sure of that
“You dare to hit me?”
Rita couldn’t believe it, but the next second, Maja grabbed her by the hair and slammed her head into the wall.
“Bang!”
Rita felt dizzy. “Help! I’m being attacked!”
This corner was out of sight, no one from the outside could see it.
Rita was trembling with fear, she hadn’t expected Maja to get physical or to be so ruthless.
“Shout again, and I’ll give you a splitting headache”
Rita was so scared she didn’t dare move, tears streaming down her face
Maja had gone mad, the cops were just around the comer, and she dared to do this
“Just wait, I’ll tell Ryan.” Rita was sobbing.
Maja said, “You live right across from me, it’s very convenient for me to do whatever I want. Miss Rita, if you
continue to slander me, I won’t hesitate to use a knife. and let’s both go out in a blaze of glory. I’ve been having
some trouble recently, I don’t really feel like living; I wouldn’t mind having some company in death.”
Maja’s words were firm, as if she were truly backed into a corner
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFor someone like Rita, unless she was truly terrified, Maja would have endless trouble in the future.
Rita was kneeling on the floor, her face wet with tears.
Maja crouched down to look at her and patted her swollen cheek, not holding back at all.
“If I were you, I’d cherish my current life and wouldn’t go looking for trouble. Miss Rita, your life is too good, it
makes me jealous. How can a woman leap across classes? It’s really not fair.”
Maja spoke with a laugh, her palm lightly touching Rita’s neck.
“If you cause trouble for me again, I’ll be waiting for you at my doorstep, and fil stab you a few times. We can die
together.”
Maja pulled back her hand, looking at her calmly
“You moving won’t help, I can get in touch with Mr. Elston. As long as I see you, I can deal with you.”
Maja leaned closer, her eyes filled with resolve.
“I can’t stand others being happier than me.”
Majd was pulling on a show, she wanted Rita to know that she was desperate to find a partner to die with.
Rita was so scared by Maja’s determined look that she couldn’t say a word.
Because of her yelling earlier, the cops had come over and, seeing Rita on the floor, asked, “What happened?”
Maja helped her up: “Nothing serious, she was probably scared by the thief in my apartment, she does live next
door after all.”
