Chapter 467
Maja’s office was strangely quiet. She didn’t speak, and neither did Zoey.
After a while, she stood up and told Zoey, “You’ve worked hard; go home first.”
Zoey was taken aback, then nodded.
After leaving the company, Maja went to the Pennyfeather family’s mansion.
She wouldn’t apologize to Carlene, and the board members didn’t back her up at the moment. She couldn’t fight alone, but she wouldn’t let these people take advantage of her!
She stood in front of Neil’s door, thought for a moment, then gently knocked.
From inside came Neil’s coughing, and Maja felt guilty immediately.
She had promised to make the company better, but because of her impulsiveness, the company was now targeted by others.
“Come in.”
After Neil said this, he took a few breaths.

“Dad, I plan to sell my shares.”
Neil’s eyelashes trembled slightly. After a while, he said, “As you wish.”
“I’m sorry.”
“There’s no need to apologize. I’ve already told the lawyer to,”
Neil couldn’t finish his sentence.
But Maja got his point. He had told her through the lawyer before that if she wanted to pursue her dreams, she could sell her shares and go for it. But Neil must be regretful; after all, he built the company from scratch.
Maja was also very regretful.
“Dad, I’m just selling it temporarily; I’ll buy it back soon. Don’t worry, I’m just letting you know; if you hear any rumors in the future, don’t get worked up.” Hearing this, Neil finally let out a sigh of relief.
“Go do what you want, Maja; you’ve always been smart; it’s me who’s been foolish.”
Maja wanted to comfort him but didn’t know where to start.
The issue between father and daughter had created a gap between them.
After leaving, Maja called Samuel and asked him out for a meal.
They met at a fancy restaurant, where she told Samuel her plan.
After hearing it, Samuel nearly burst into laughter.
“How did you come up with this plan?”
Maja looked at the steak in front of her, not hungry at all but full of fighting spirit
“If she wants to fight with me, I’ll show her that I’m not someone she can mess with.”
Samuel looked at her. He sincerely said, “It’s a shame you’re married.”
She was more interesting than many rich girls, making men want to conquer her.
Given Maja’s upbringing, she could climb high even if she was only given a broken rope.
As long as the rope didn’t break, she was fearless.
“Why do you think I would help you?”
“Mr. Brown, you can name your conditions.”

As soon as he finished, he saw lan and Carlene walking over from a distance.
Just then, Maja responded.
Just a kiss, what’s the big deal?”
As she finished, she stood up and leaned toward Samuel.
But before she could touch Samuel, she heard lan’s cold voice from behind.
“Do you behave this casually with everyone?”
Maja froze. She turned around and found that lan was standing next to her.
He stood straight, with Carlene behind him..
But Maja only nodded politely to him, then prepared to lean towards Samuel.
Akiss in exchange for a new life for the Pennyfeather family’s company, plus Samuel playing along with her act, made her think it was totally worth it.
Why should she fuss so much?
Just as she was about to kiss Samuel, he suddenly picked up a piece of steak, blocking her lips.
lan, standing next to Maja, trembled at the sight..
He even found it hard to breathe.
