Maja didn’t respond, simply tossing her phone aside.
She was exhausted too, so she went straight to wash up and rest.
It was already the next day when she woke up, and she saw two new messages on her phone.
[I’m already 53 years old, and suddenly everything is gone. I don’t dare to see your mom, afraid she’ll
blame me.]
[I checked the contract with ByteWise Technologies. Carter also signed an additional agreement,
shortening the six months to one month. ByteWise Technologies has already called my phone, and we
have to compensate them 1 billion dollars; the Pennyfeather family doesn’t have that kind of cash.]
[The Pennyfeather family could be buried in debt, and transferring the shares to you now is
meaningless. You have nothing, but this is for your protection. Maja, I’m really sorry.]
When she saw the last message, Maja instinctively felt something was off.
She immediately called Neil, but a nurse answered the phone and said, “Ms. Pennyfeather, the patient
suddenly collapsed last night. He asked us not to tell you. His will to live is very low.”
Maja opened her mouth, but no words came out.
Her father’s condition was due to recent events and the company’s problems.
The company was his baby, something he built from scratch, from a small street stall to what it is now.
But now, in his fifties, he lost everything because- he trusted the wrong person.
The people closest to him had all betrayed him.
Even the death of his friend might be related to this situation.
No man could bear such a failure.
Maja rubbed her forehead, but the contract with ByteWise Technologies was legally binding, as it was
signed by Carter on behalf of the company and had the company seal. Plus, it was approved by the
entire board of directors. The company’s internal affairs might already be a mess.
Unless they could find something to threaten ByteWise Technologies with, to make ByteWise
Technologies voluntarily cancel the contract.
ByteWise Technologies has been doing shady stuff for a while now, pushing many companies into
bankruptcy, but they never went down. How could she resist a big company by herself?
Maja looked up ByteWise Technologies‘ CEO, a guy named Knox, online.
She also discovered a few shell companies owned by Knox, which surprisingly were connected to
Samuel Brown’s father, Daniel.
When she thought of Samuel, an idea suddenly flashed in Maja’s mind.
When ByteWise Technologies was mentioned before, Samuel seemed very familiar with the company
and said lan must know ByteWise Technologies business model very well and had already blacklisted
ByteWise Technologies. So, lan should have more complete information about ByteWise Technologies.
He might even already know ByteWise Technologies‘ weakness. He just didn’t want to act on it.
Sitting on the couch, Maja called the hospital to ask about Neil’s condition.
“He’s not showing much will to live; he’s always muttering ‘Maja‘ and crying in his sleep, his hair turned
white overnight.”
Hearing this, Maja’s body stiffened.
He was the type of man whose hair turned white relatively late, something he was quite proud of.
She couldn’t bear the thought of her father’s hair turning white overnight.
She held her phone, wanting to say something, but she didn’t know how to respond.
Around noon, she dozed off on the couch and dreamt of her mother,
She could barely remember what her mother looked like. The most vivid memory was of her mother
protecting her from her grandparents‘ wrath.
That was when she realized that her gender was not accepted in her family.
On the day she and her mother returned to Greenfield by car, the person sitting next to them discussed
the issue of preferring boys over girls.
She curled up in her mother’s arms, she had just been hit, but her mother protected her, preventing her
from getting hurt.
She felt her mother’s thin body trembling slightly.
Raising her head, she asked her mom, “Mom, what does ‘preferring boys over girls‘ mean?”
Looking back now, her mother’s face had already become somewhat blurred. They were poor back
then. They didn’t have any photos.
Her mother stiffened, hugging her tightly.
Her mom explained, “It means boys carry heavy stuff, and girls carry light stuff.”
Later, when she was wronged, she seldom dreamt of her mother. But that day, she dreamt of her.
“Maja, what I worry about the most are you and your dad. I’m afraid your dad will be lonely, and I worry
you won’t marry well. I miss you guys so much up
in heaven…
She woke up from the dream, feeling a pain in her throat.
