Dear Ex-wife Marry Me Novel Full Episode

Chapter 528

Zoey hit up Maja after she woke up, telling her that she’d signed a contract with EliteEdge Consortium.

With contracts from Silverstone Enterprises and Elite Edge Consortium for the next six months, the Pennyfeather

group’s operations shouldn’t be too rough. The real headache, though, was the fact that the company’s top

management was still up in the air.

Maja had gone through the candidates‘ profiles over and over again. They were all young, but beyond their

resumes, she knew nothing about them.

“Ms. Pennyfeather, we’re about to jump into a bidding war along with several other companies,” Zoey said. “It’s a

project green–lighted by the former CEO a year ago, aiming to beef up the Pennyfeather group and add more

production lines. The bid’s about a development on the east side of the city, and it’s kicking off tomorrow. I thought

you might not be in the loop, so I’m just giving you a heads up”

Back when Neil was calling the shots, he was all about expanding the company.

Since they’d already committed to the bid, even if Maja wasn’t keen on adding more production lines right now,

she’d have to show her face at the bidding.

“Ms. Pennyfeather, I’ve sent you the info on the other companies involved in the bid.”

Maja booted up her computer, and the EverBest Group, belonging to the Shepard family, popped up. They were in

the real estate business, so their involvement in the bid was a no–brainer.

Zoey added a note in the email: “Since we’re locking horns with the EverBest Group in this bid, and given that

Carlene spilled the beans about her plan to take over our company last time, I’m guessing there’ll be quite a crowd

at the bid. They’ll probably want to see what happens when our two companies cross paths again.” “Zoey, you to in

my place.”

Zoey agreed.

The Greenfield Gardens project was moving along smoothly. However, during Maja’s last site visit, she floated the

idea–of.designing an art studio on the second floor. The construction workers asked her if she wanted to change the

second floor’s design or stick with the original plan.

After breakfast, Maja got a call from Silverstone Enterprises.

On this issue, lan hadn’t given Maja a straight answer yet.

Maja rang up lan to get his take.

But he didn’t pick up.

Frowning, Maja dialed him up again.

The moment the call connected, he hung up.

Clearly, lan was ducking her calls on purpose.

Maja took a deep breath, and then her phone pinged with a new message.

It was from lan.

[Call me on your private number.]

Looking at the message, Maja found it rather amusing.

lan did know her private number, but he’d always thought it was his wife’s.

There was no way Maja would use her private number to call him.

In the best–case scenario, once their spat was over, she could easily take off to another country in three months.

By then, Grandpa Holden’s condition should also be better.

Maja didn’t respond to lan’s message and instead went straight to the Raymond Corporation.

lan was sitting in his office, waiting for Penny to respond.

But there was no response.

His face darkened noticeably as he tossed his phone aside.

After dealing with paperwork for half an hour, someone knocked on his office door.

“Come in.”

Maja pushed the door open and walked in.

“Mr. Raymond.”

lan’s pen paused mid–air as he looked up at her.

Her hand was bandage–free today, hanging by her side.

He put down his pen and took a moment to check out her outfit.

She hadn’t planned to go to the Pennyfeather group today, so she was dressed pretty casually in wide–leg black

pants and a white cinched blouse with puffed sleeves.

She had a well proportioned figure, and her outfit made her look delicate and elongated her legs. This was the first

time he’d seen her dressed like this.

The moment his eyes met hers, his heartbeat seemed to speed up.

lan tried to hide his interest and turned his attention back to the documents on his desk. “What’s up?”

“About whether to reserve an art studio in Greenfield Gardens, you didn’t give me an answer last time.”

Ian shifted his gaze back to her face as she added, “If your future partner likes painting, we can reserve an art

studio on the south side. It overlooks the garden. I’ll make sure the plants in the garden are well managed. It should

be quite inspiring for anyone who paints.”

“Do you like it?” he asked.

Maja paused before replying, “Whether I like it or not is irrelevant.”

“Right. Let’s reserve it then.” He turned back to his documents. “Anything else?”
