Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 558

Just hearing all that made Maja shiver. Those people were animals!

The little brother was still crying and curled up, "That's the truth, don't hit me anymore, it really hurts!"

The bodyguard asked again, "After the incident, did you cremate the body?"

"Yes, yes! My brother suffocated her with a pillow, we held down her limbs together, my dad also choked her neck, but she was wearing a collared shirt, so there were no visible marks. We quickly cremated the body. Now, my grandparents keep pushing my dad to marry that woman, and when they do, those two houses will be ours. My brother and I will each get one."

No one would know such cruel events existed in this world if they didn't hear it for themselves.

And there was still no evidence. Law is all about evidence. The most crucial evidence had already been cleaned up. So even if that family was disgusting, they wouldn’t face any punishment.

Maja didn't want to stay here anymore, feeling the air had become filthy.

Back in the car, she felt like throwing up. Zoey, who came out with her, was also pale. As women, they could truly understand the cruelty and despair of such a case. Zoey vomited, the loss of humanity was unbearable.

Back in the car, Maja signaled the bodyguard to drive the two away. The car stopped outside Rosewood Manor, and Maja looked a bit off, taking a deep sigh.

"Ms. Pennyfeather, are we really just going to let it go like this? Planning on paying them off tomorrow?"

Even if it's a few hundred thousand, it's a big win for Ferris.

"Give them a million for now, I'll figure out the rest later. No rush."

The next morning, Ferris indeed came early to the company demanding money, with the same arrogant face.

"Maja, if you don't give me the money, I'll keep handing out flyers around the Pennyfeather family company, let everyone know the true face of your company!"

Maja frowned, instructing her staff to prepare a contract, her tone indifferent.

"I'm giving you a million today. After you get the money, you're not allowed to spread this matter in any way, on any platform. We'll settle with this million."

Since she loved gambling, Maja decided to let her enjoy the thrill of it this time.

After arranging that, Maja felt a bit of her anger subsiding. As a woman, it was hard for her to sleep after hearing such a thing. She hoped Ferris and his family would be punished soon. But in real life, those unscrupulous people often lived the best lives. If it wasn't for her settling accounts with Ferris, he would have escaped the law this time.

Next, Maja kept an eye on this matter while dealing with the Pennyfeather group's transition.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Her hand was healed, and Ian had been discharged from the hospital, but he didn't contact her. Maja felt a lot lighter.

But occasionally at night, thinking back on their intimate moments, she would feel her body heating up. Who wouldn't miss a man like Ian?

Ian was also holding back, not contacting her. A month passed, and his phone never rang, making him feel suffocated.
