Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 410

If Neil had a favourite person, it would definitely be Lillian.

She was the smartest, strongest woman he'd ever met.

So, when Lillian passed away, he was steeped in sorrow, unable to face reality, and feeling increasingly lonely.

That's when Cristina barged into his life.

Over the years, Neil had projected all his guilt and unresolved regrets about Lillian onto Cristina.

But tonight, in this brief dream, he saw Lillian.

He missed her so much, that's why he saw her in his dream.

Lillian was always easy-going. She didn't blow a gasket, just asked him sadly.

"Why did you treat Maja like that?"

"I raised her. She's my daughter."

Neil woke up coughing, a bit of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

He didn't have Lillian's wisdom.

If Lillian were still alive, she would never take out her emotions on Maja.

After all, even if there was a mix-up with the baby, Maja was innocent.

She'd never done anything to hurt him over the years.

Neil took a deep breath, trembling as he picked up his phone and dialled his lawyer's number.

The lawyer rushed over in the middle of the night.

Meanwhile, Tricia, outside the door, overheard the commotion and asked resentfully.

"Haven't you been in touch with Holden several times? As long as you agree. I can marry Ian, I really like him. Maja is a nobody. How can she ever be worthy of someone so noble."

Neil looked disappointed and said, "Let me think about it."

Tricia excitedly returned to her room without any concern for his condition.

Half an hour later, the lawyer arrived.

Neil, furious at Tricia's words, wiped the blood from his mouth before speaking.

"Draw up my will. All my shares go to my daughter, Maja."

Neil blinked, tears rolling down his cheeks, realizing the one who cared about him most was Maja.

The next morning.

As Maja was about to head to the Pennyfeather group, she opened the door to find the lawyer looking for her.

She thought she had somehow got caught up in a legal case.

After they sat down in the living room, the lawyer passed on Neil's words.

Maja was speechless from heartache.

"He said he was sorry for his behaviour yesterday. He lost his temper and made an outrageous demand. He said he needs to rest at the Pennyfeather family for a while. You don't have to visit him. Thirty-five percent of the shares are all yours. Tricia will get three million dollars cash from Mr. Pennyfeather's account."

Maja, her eyes red, felt like her heart had been crushed.

As the lawyer was about to leave, he added.

"Mr. Pennyfeather may have said some harsh words yesterday, but he also cried a lot last night. He's fifty-three now, a series of incidents have turned his hair white, and he coughs up blood every few sentences. He even asked me to tell you, Lillian loved you like her own daughter. She was most worried about you before she died, so you are her daughter. Mr. Pennyfeather also said he doesn't have much to leave you. If you want to pursue a career in painting, then sell these thirty-five percent shares. The money should be enough for you to chase your dreams. That's what Lillian would have wanted."

After passing on the message, the lawyer nodded slightly and said, "I have to leave now. I still have some documents to prepare."

As the lawyer was leaving the room, he remembered Neil's reminder and quickly added.

"Mr. Pennyfeather asked me to tell you he's sorry for giving you the worst birthday ever."
