Chapter 847
“Maureen, give it a second thought. Ian is already abroad now, and you’ve seen his current state. He’s not fit to be
the CEO of the Raymond Corporation anymore.”
Dennis said, adjusting his clothes and maintaining a smile on his face.
“I’ll negotiate with Dad. Once he agreed, your shares will be just the icing on the cake for me. The terms I will offer
then won’t be as good as they are now.”
The nature of humanity was selfish.
Despite Maureen’s considerations for lan, she had to take into account her future position in the Raymond family.
Dennis’s words left her speechless. After he left, Maureen quickly left the Raymond Corporation building.
But she didn’t call lan again. Instead, she went straight to where Maja was.
Maja was at her company, meticulously selecting the supporting cast for her next drama. After finishing, she called
out, “Zoey”
But Zoey didn’t show up. She found out that Zoey didn’t come to work that day.
Maja was so engrossed in work that she didn’t notice Zoey had taken the day off.
She immediately called Zoey, but no one answered.
She immediately got worried. Zoey just found out her fiancé was cheating. Now she’s not picking up her phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWas she just pretending to be okay, but in reality, she couldn’t accept what happened? Maja quickly left the building
and drove to where Zoey and Murray lived.
Neither Zoey nor Murray were home. Only Murray’s mother was there. When she heard that Maja was looking for
Zoey, she immediately lost her temper.
“That woman moved out ages ago. This house is mine. What do you want with her here? Get lost! We don’t need a
pathetic woman like her in our family!”
Maja was pushed out while Murray’s mother continued to curse Zoey.
“She better never step foot in our house again! What would happen if Evelyn saw her? My son and Evelyn are
already discussing marriage, and the Farley family is not a place for a pathetic person like Zoey.”
Maja looked at this woman’s face and felt extremely disgusted.
Zoey and Murray had been together for seven years. They had gone through the hardest times together and just
recently started talking about marriage. But now, a mistress has appeared out of the blue and has quickly received
the approval of the Cooper family.
What did the seven years Zoey spent with him amount to?
“Also, you’re Zoey’s boss, right? Tell her she needs to pay back the $300,000 she owes my son immediately. That
damn house was her idea. We don’t want to bear the loss with her.” “What $300,000?”
Maja hadn’t heard about this, but she had a vague idea. It seemed there was a problem with the house Zoey and
Murray bought together. But the house was in Zoey’s name, so the Cooper family wanted Zoey to pay back the
$300,000 Murray invested, bear the loss of the $600,000 down payment alone, and pay the subsequent mortgage.
Her face turned cold with anger.
Zoey hadn’t mentioned this problem to her. Where was Zoey now?
Maja glanced at the time on her phone. It was already one o’clock in the afternoon. Zoey had never been late
before. Was she really troubled?
At another hotel.
Zoey was roughly pushed to the ground.
After the torment from last night, her body felt like it had been torn apart.
She took some medication to alleviate the pain. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to bear this kind of treatment.
The man on the bed looked down at her with a sudden smirk.
Zoey sat on the floor, covering her chest with a blanket, her head lowered without saying a word.
The man got out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
When he came out, he had changed into a suit.
He threw a check for $500,000 at her, which she missed. He grabbed her chin.
The man’s eyes were filled with anger, “You’ve got some nerve! We’ll meet three times a week from now on. Keep
yourself clean and wait for me in this room! Since you chose this path, stick to it.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZoey kept her head down, not speaking, her gaze falling on the check beside her.
The man noticed her gaze, smirking again, leaving his phone number, and then got up and left.
When she heard the sound of the door closing, Zoey slowly stood up, but due to the pain in her body, she knelt
down again.
Her phone rang. It was Maja calling.
She quickly answered. “Mr. Pennyfeather.”
Maja breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her answer.
“You didn’t come to work today. I was worried. I just went to see Murray, and his mother said you owe him
$300,000. If you don’t have it, I can lend it to you.”
“No need, I’ve already borrowed from a friend. Mr. Pennyfeather, I’m sorry, I had a fever last night so that I
couldn’t come to work.”
“Is it serious? Then you can resttoday. Get well soon.”
Thank you, Mr. Pennyfeather”
After hanging up the phone, Zoey didn’t dare to look at herself in the mirror but started to vomit.
Until her stomach was empty, she felt a slight relief from the nausea.
This was her first time with a man, and she had to take drugs to do it because she couldn’t bear it sober.
She did all of this for the money.
She knew that man was rich.
