Dear Ex-wife Marry Me (Maja and Ian) novel Chapter 866

Chapter 866 

lan stood there for a while, waiting until the car completely disappeared before he headed back. 

Jeff had a knack for showing up at the right time. 

“Boss, this is Dennis‘ recent move. He’s bought the shares from Maureen. Now, he holds 30% of the shares. The next step is Holden’s 15%. Also, two months ago, Dennis had a meeting with the president of the Eco Traverse Group in North America. 

lan glanced at the report, and responded nonchalantly. 

Jeff wasn’t sure what was on his mind. After putting the report down, he couldn’t help but say, “Ms. Penny’s company is killing it.” 

lan seemed to take it in, staring at the report in deep thought.

When Maja got to the company, she was surprised to see Shawn already waiting there. 

By this time, Shawn should’ve already signed the endorsement contract and gone to prepare for the ad shoot. 

“What’s up?” 

“Mr. Pennyfeather, there’s a problem with the product Ford wanted me to endorse. Mr. Dempsey says I can’t do it anymore. They’ve picked someone else from Simstar Entertainment.” 

The problem was that the Star Movie group had already announced that Shawn would be endorsing Ford’s perfume but didn’t expect Ford to back out at the last minute. 

Maja frowned and dialed Bruce’s number but Bruce didn’t pick up. 

She had just talked to Bruce that morning. Everything was fine then, and only at 13:49, a few minutes before the contract signing, did Ford back out. 

Everyone was caught off guard. 

Now, there’s a new round of controversy online. People were saying Shawn was delusional and that the Star Movie group was stirring up trouble on purpose. 

Maja was not pleased. She dialed Bruce again but got no answer. It seemed like she was being blocked. 

Bruce, as an elder, really shouldn’t be so ruthless. 

She then called Herbert to ask about Bruce, only to have Herbert curse up a storm on the other end. 

Maja: “Bruce isn’t even taking my calls anymore. It must have something to do with business. It’s just an endorsement deal. If it didn’t really affect his company, he wouldn’t go this far.” 

Herbert quickly tried to reassure her, “Penny, don’t worry. I’ll go ask at Ford’s headquarters.” 

Ford’s headquarters was in North America, and Herbert was there at the moment. 

Maja didn’t want to bother Herbert. After all, he was getting on in years 

“Herbert, I’ll handle it. Don’t worry.” 

After hanging up, Maja sat down in her office chair. She noticed that Shawn seemed off and realized he was probably dealing with this kind of trickery for the first time. 

What Bruce did was really low. 

It would’ve been fine even if he breached the contract before Star Movie group made the official Twitter announcement. But now, just ten minutes after the Star Movie group announced Shawn as Ford’s global spokesperson, Ford announced a new spokesperson from Simstar Entertainment. 

This was a public humiliation of the Star Movie group. 

There were already tens of thousands of comments under Star Movie group’s Twitter post. The company was suddenly in the eye of a media storm. 

And Alma, seeing all these messages, finally felt a sense of satisfaction. 

She didn’t expect a casual comment from Ms. Sanders could embarrass the entire Star Movie group. 

She sneered, shivering at the thought of her own embarrassment the night before. 

She would probably never have the face to play piano in public again. The humiliation was etched deep into her bones.
