Dear Ex-wife Marry Me Chapter 679

Chapter 679 

Penny was obviously planning to betray him, and the smartest move would be to deal with her immediately. 

But as lan lay in bed, his thoughts were consumed by the image of the bathroom in his mind. 

A numbness that started from his lips was spreading to his heart. 

He got up, a hand supporting his head, his eyebrows knitted together. 

He tried hard enough to see the person in the picture, but something was always blocking him from accessing that memory. 

When he lay down again, he dreamed of holding a woman in his arms in the tight space of a car compartment. 

“Here to have a secret affair with you, nervous?” 

The voice was his. 

At three in the morning, lan woke up suddenly, feeling a certain part of him uncomfortably aroused. 

It really was an awful feeling. 

He took a deep breath and decided to take a cold shower in the middle of winter. After coming out, his fiery emotions had finally cooled down a bit. 

The next morning, Maja went to the company and handed a few scripts to Meetman, asking if they could start filming. 

Meetman, a genius director, had previously won awards for his crime detective dramas. 

Seeing these scripts, Meetman’s cheeks were flushed with excitement. 

“Ms. Pennyfeather, where did you get these scripts from?” 

“A student from Skyrim Film Academy who specializes in script–writing, exceptionally talented.” 

Meetman took a big gulp of cold water. He had no initial high hopes for Maja’s company, but seeing these gripping scripts, his enthusiasm was ignited instantly. 

“I can shoot! Ms. Pennyfeather, you must let me shoot these scripts!” 

Maja breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that Meetman agreed to direct. 

“Meetman, do you think Shawn can play the lead role? Shawn’s movie is currently being released, having him as the lead will attract a large audience as he is relevant now. As for the heroine, I am thinking of using a newcomer.” 

“Shawn’s acting skills are no problem, but to film a good crime detective drama, it’s going to be quite costly.” 

“Is 20 million going to be enough?” 

Hearing this figure, Meetman’s fingers slightly trembled. He initially wanted to say 8 million, but Maja said 20 million straight up. 

“Enough! It’s enough!” 

“Don’t worry about the funds, Meetman. Right now, what we lack is people, the heroine. I will find them, aiming to gather everyone within a month.”

“Ms. Pennyfeather, I have many people contacting me right now. I can find the heroine, the supporting actors too. My social media account gets tens of thousands of contacts every day, all hoping that I’ll make a drama.“. 

Hearing this, Maja suddenly realized that she had forgotten this important matter! 

“Alright, then you arrange it, Meetman. All these scripts can start shooting. As for the scriptwriter, I will communicate with her.” 

After the two reached an agreement, Meetman left satisfied. 

Maja also breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go to a meeting when the receptionist came up to inform her of a delivery. 

She was surprised, wondering who would send her a parcel. 

Opening it up, it was a letter from Erlinda, neatly written and seemed very serious. 

After reading the letter, she felt a sudden tightness in her chest, the content of the letter was like a last testament. 

She immediately took out her phone and called Erlinda as she was concerned for her. 

But no one answered. 

She quickly put on the coat next to her and was about to go to Erlinda’s house. But just as she was about to press the accelerator, someone from Skyrim Film Academy informed her that a student was threatening to jump off a building. 

“Ms. Pennyfeather, that student is Erlinda.” 

Maja felt dizzy and immediately rushed over to that academy. 

By the time she arrived at the scene, all she saw was the police tape, Erlinda’s body lying on the ground, blood seeping out from underneath her. 

Students were taking pictures around, and the police kept pushing people back from the scene. 

Maja stood in the crowd, watching as Erlinda’s body was covered with a white cloth. 

She had jumped from the twelfth floor and died instantly. 

Students were discussing nearby. 

“It seemed like she had problems with her family. Professor Smith had been trying to talk her down for a long time, her parents were there too.” 

“Yes, the police had already talked her down, but her father slapped her in the face in front of everyone, so she jumped without hesitation.” 

“Professor Smith couldn’t even hold onto her. Now he might be punished too. Professor Smith is just an innocent bystander, it’s all Erlinda’s father’s fault.” 

Maja couldn’t digest what she was hearing, her gaze fixed on Erlinda’s parents who were being supported by others, crying their eyes out. 

Perhaps when Erlinda’s father slapped her, he never thought his daughter would jump. 

Now both parents were crying their hearts out, but Maja couldn’t find it in her to sympathize with them. 

Winter was already cold enough, even a finger accidentally hitting a table amplified the pain. 

She jumped from the twelfth floor, how painful must that have been? 

The police had already come up to her, “Don’t look anymore, everyone disperse. Photos of the deceased cannot be spread online, everyone please leave.” 

Maja was led by the crowd of students to the vast playground. 

Even though the sun was shining brightly, she felt cold.
