Chapter 183
Rita was feeling uncomfortable, so she spoke up right away. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Ms. Raymond, I was telling the truth. Penny and Mr. Raymond…”
Before she could finish, Maureen interrupted her.
“lan’s business is his own. You don’t need to tell me about it. I’m just his relative, so I won’t interfere
with his personal life.”
She was cold in her tone and as she spoke, her gaze fell back on Maja.
She found it hard to believe that Maja had the ability to influence lan. Even if lan didn’t like the woman
at home, he wouldn’t go out looking for other women.
But recalling the two encounters she had with Maja at the hospital, seeing her stubborn and wronged
look, she felt that she really liked Maja.
Perhaps in this way, lan might be deceived by her.

Maureen has been in this circle for so many years, and it was the first–time she discovered that she
also had a misjudgment. “You can figure it out for yourself.”
After saying these words, she left.
The room fell into silence.
After a while, Maja rubbed her temples, “Mr. Elston, please take your girlfriend away.”
Ryan was still very fond of Rita at this point, so he had to coax her, “Babe, let’s go to your room, so I
can explain everything to you.” But Rita was not happy. She turned her gaze directly to Maja.
“Penny, I can’t believe you’re so manipulative. I took care of you last night, considered you my friend.
Just so you know, I’ll get back
at you!”
After Ryan took Rita away, she finally stopped complaining for the moment.
Maja felt a headache when she closed the door of the room.
This apartment building was two units per floor, and she was the only one on this floor with Rita. Now
that she and Rita had fallen out, plus the woman related to Leo was also in this complex, Maja felt very
uncomfortable.
Looking at her new place where she had spent all her savings, she didn’t expect this outcome.
She might as well go back to Rosewood Manor, at least there she only had to avoid lan, not get
involved in others‘ fights, putting her in a dilemma.
Maja sat in the living room, feeling a heavy headache.
The police contacted her quickly about the car accident last night, and Ms. Raymond had proposed a
compensation plan.
Looking at these terms, Maja was relieved that most of the responsibility fell on Kim, and she had only
offended Ms. Raymond.
Looking at the compensation terms, it was clear that Maureen was angry.
Maja didn’t want to stay here anymore, so she called Maria.
Hearing that lan wasn’t there, she quickly took Coco and planned to go back for a few days to avoid
Rita.
As for the matter between her and Rita, if they were to discuss right and wrong, Maja was also to
blame. Rita did take care of her last night, but today she let her suffer such humiliation.
She would come back after some time.
Marla was very excited when she saw Maja and Coco.
“Ms. Pennyfeather, you’ve finally come to your senses.”
Maja frowned slightly, “Ms. Maria, is there a church nearby? I feel like my luck has been bad this year,
so I want to go and pray.”
Maria thought she was joking, so she didn’t respond, but just led her to her room with a smile.
After returning to the room, Maria started preparing dinner.
“Ms. Pennyfeather, did you and Mr. Raymond plan to come back together tonight? Mr. Raymond said
he was coming back tonight too. His assistant just called to ask me to prepare dinner.”
Maja frowned. Wasn’t lan supposed to be at the hotel? Why was he coming to Rosewood Manor
again?
Grandpa Holden hadn’t given him any tasks this time, did he?
She felt a bit powerless, but she had to continue dealing with what was to come next.
