Chapter 552
When Majs returned to her office, she could still hear the sounds of people moving furniture and chatting outside
Back in the day, when Heil was still with the Heilian Group, he was all about expanding production lines without
considering the resource waste. Just expanding wasn’t gonna cut it for the company’s growth. Nel and the other
bigwigs wem too conservative, no one had the balls to suggest investing in other industries. But now, Maya was the
one thaking things up. As for whether che could pull it off, she couldn’t be sure
Zoey was always by her side, his eyes brimming with excitement. “Mr. Pennyleather, I’m with you all the way”
There was something about Maja in front of all the male higher ups, she was cool and calm. Her voice, icy and
dear, made people shut up and listen. Maja chuckled, rubbing her temples.
Im not sure how far I can push this, but we can’t keep going like this. Short videos are trending now and will
continue to be for a while. If we grab this opportunity, we can get some gains.”
“Your idea is excellent. It may seem crazy at first, but the Pennyfeather group has been stagnant for years, barely
scraping by. Your father was strict with the production line, which did eam us some reputation, but new companies
are quickly taking over the market and we’re already two years behind. Trying to catch up would only be a waste of
time and energy. So, looking for new directions is the best game plan.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaja flicked through the documents in her hands without saying a word. She noticed a new cleaning lady coming in,
not the one before.
Only then, she realized that May Chandler hadn’t been around for a while.
She frowned, “Zoey, where’s the cleaning lady for our floor?”
Zoey thought for a moment
“You mean May? She hasn’t been here for three days. We couldn’t reach her, so we got someone else for now!
Maja’s brows knitted together. She was considering going to look for her herself when there was sudden
commotion outside the office. Then, the door was pushed open, and Ferris Pennyfeather walked in with the police,
followed by a raging Hattie Zimmer
Seeing Maja sitting in the luxurious office, a hint of jealousy flashed in Ferris’s eyes it’s her fault! My wife died
because of overword”
May had passed away? Maja remembered their interactions. May looked a little older than her peers but seemed to
be in good health. After all, the Pennyfeather group did annual health checks for employees. May had a tough life
with Ferris but she didn’t have any health issues.
Maja stood up, “Where’s her body?”
Ferris pointed at her, almost poking her face. “Your company must compensate us! This is a life were talking
about!”
Maja got it. Ferris was after the money,
But how did May die? At Ferris’s place, she was basically a punching bag for his temper, her motherinlaw blames
her all the time, and her son only wanted her to work to support the family. May was a nanny for this family. With
Ferris needing to work and two kids to raise, she was practically doing it on her own.
The police gestured for Ferris to calm down, then turned to Maja. “We need to investigate the company now,”
Maja had nothing to hide. Although there was overtime in the company, May, as a deaner, had never been asked to
work overtime. “Please feel free to investigate. Also, Ferris has been abusing his wife for years. Now that May is
dead, shouldn’t we first investigate this abusive husband?”
Ferris froze, wishing he could slap her right then and there. “What are you implying? That I killed her?”
Hattie also pushed through the crowd, standing at the front. “You’re just trying to get out of compensating. Your
father didn’t support me and that was fine, but now you’re accusing us of murder. You’re a curset
Maja was annoyed. She slumped back into her office chair. “I’ll cooperate with the police investigation. But for now,
I’m just providing evidence. She had injuries on her body all the time. If Ferris caused her death due to domestic
violence, this blame can’t be pinned on me. If you’re going to investigate, then you better look into everything!
The police took note of this and turned to Ferris. “We will send someone to the Pennyfeather family for
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏminvestigation.”
As soon as he finished, Hattie started crying and making a scene on the floor. “I demand compensation today! You
owe me an explanation.
Maja didn’t even look at her, just dialed the security team. “Could you come up and get this person out of here?”
Hattie was scared into silence, still muttering complaints as she got up from the floor
The police only came to ask a few questions. Now that the investigation had begun, they found no serious overtime
issues. In fact, May even left work early during this period. However, the Pennyfeather group should provide some
compensation out of humanity, given the previous labor contract. But Maja didn’t plan to pay this money for now.
May was already a burden to Ferris’s family and if he could exchange his wife for money, he would be happy to
accept. This is where Maja felt helpless.
After the police and these two left, she furrowed her brows.
That night, she and Zoey began to track Ferris,
Ferris had a nice salary now. Zoey handed her a bill. Mr. Pennyfeather, this is their family’s expenses that I had
checked today. Ferris doesn’t give May a penny of his salary, other than paying the mortgage. All of May’s income is
used for the family’s expenditure.”
So, May had been a nanny for Ferris for decades without getting a dime from him? Plus, she bore him two sons and
had to put up with his physical abuse?
