FreeNovelChapter 156 Silver was cursing angrily the phone.
He thought it would be easy to control Maja, but the result was unexpected. If he couldn't reach a private settlement with Maja and let the police dealt with it according to normal procedures, he would definitely be exposed to the public, and the company’s reputation would also be ruined by then.
Silver was very confused. How could Maja sent the two kidnappers to the police station since Maja was just a weak woman? He still didn’t know who helped Maja, but regretted that he looked down on Maja before, which made him fell into such a bad situation now.
He cursed again, but he still needed Maja to come forward to reconcile now, or he would be in real trouble. He went out quickly, intending to find Maja.
Maja has decided not to get too entangled in this matter. She

‘When she walked out of the hospital, she met Maureen again.
Maja hid her cheek almost subconsciously. The last time she met Maureen in the hospital, she was also very haggard, and
coincidentally, she also had slap marks on her face at that time, and now there were slap marks on her cheeks. She didn't know what the other party will think. But even though she tried to turn around and pretend not to see Maureen, Maureen saw her right away.
“Penny?” It was exactly the same as last time. Since Maureen had already called her name, there was no point in hiding. Maja decided to bite the bullet and say hi.
Maureen's gaze fell on her cheek.
The slap mark was as plain as the nose on her face.
Maureen was well-bred and knew better than to bring up ‘someone's sore spot. But this was her son's girlfriend, she couldn't just sit on her hands.
And she could tell Maja was a lone wolf, not one to ask for help.
Ryan really dropped the ball, letting his girlfriend get pushed around.
“Ms. Raymond.” Maja was respectful, and Maureen gently touched her cheek.
“What happened again? Does it hurt?” The unexpected tenderness threw Maja for a loop.

Because she had once lied to this woman, and Maureen probably still thought she was Ryan's girlfriend.
“I'm fine.” Maureen took her hand, her voice even softer.
“You're with Ryan now. You should talk things over with him, don't carry the world on your shoulders.” The last time she ran into Maja at the hospital, Maureen thought Ryan was the one who hit her. But Maja told her it was her family.
This time it was probably her family again. Maureen's son might be a jerk, but he wouldn't lay a finger ona girl.
“Penny, if you need legal help, just let me know.”
Maja opened her mouth, wanting to clarify her relationship with Ryan, but in front of Maureen's gentle eyes, she couldn't say anything. This question had missed the best time to explain. “Penny, you're a good kid. | really like you. | don’t want to see you hurt again.
Since someone in your family hurt you, it's their fault. If you're okay with it, I'd like to have a chat with your family. It might help you out.” ‘When Maureen said this, she didn’t have a condescending attitude, but was cautious, afraid that if she was not careful, she would touch Maja’s sore spot.
