Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja) novel Chapter 677

Chapter 677 

Maja and Shawn had already left the shopping mall and they were still discussing the box office earnings. 

“Penny, the box office prediction has already hit 300 million. My worth is definitely going to skyrocket after this movie.” 

There was a little color on his face, “I’ll make a killing for Star Movie group.” 

Maja gently patted his car door, “Go home and get some rest. I’ll be hustling for some other resources.” 

Truth be told, the resource situation of Star Movie group was pretty bleak at that time. They would probably have to ride Shawn’s coattails to stay afloat. 

The only thing Maja can depend on now was the handful of scripts Erlinda handed over to her. 

Now that they had the scripts and the director, all that’s left was to start rolling. If these scripts got a warm reception, the Star Movie group will bounce back. 

She had this audacious plan of having Shawn play the lead role and cast a newbie for the female lead. And not just any newbie, but a fresh signing of Star Movie group. That way, they can piggyback on Shawn’s fame to get the newbie some recognition. 

It might not seem fair to Shawn, but she’s the boss of Star Movie group now. 

It’s just how the cookie crumbles in the business world. 

She would make it up to him later. 

It was only after Shawn drove off that Maja turned around to get in her car. 

But before she could, two guys rushed from behind and grabbed her by the neck. 

This was right outside a busy shopping mall. 

Maja was about to scream and call out for help when she was hit hard at the back of the neck and passed out. 

Forty minutes later. 

Someone threw a bucket of water on her head. 

She slowly opened her eyes and looked around. 

Funfly was sitting on a chair, looking down at her. 

“Penny, long time no see.” 

Maja initially thought Funfly had come after her because of the Harden situation. After all, Harden was up the creek without a paddle, he might have to skip town. Funfly played dirty and she was ruthless. 

Maja was tied up and unable to fight back. 

“Penny, you used to ride on lan’s coattails and always messed with my plans. Now lan’s lost interest in you, nobody is going to come to your rescue.” 

Funfly swung the whip at her without any hesitation. 

Maja was wearing a thick coat, the whip just ripped through her down jacket, sending some feathers flying. 

Funfly seemed to notice that and signaled her bodyguard: 

“Strip her. I want her naked. Then whip her fifty times.” 

If she really got whipped fifty times, Maja would be black and blue all over her body. 

And these wounds won’t heal easily. Even if they did, they’d leave scars all over. 

Funfly had it all figured out, how to leave her mark on that beautiful skin. 

She was all smiles and couldn’t wait to get started with the whipping. 

Maja watched as two men came towards her, she didn’t even flinch. 

“Ms. Darcy, I think you might have misunderstood something. lan was never my safety net. The power I have behind me is even something lan himself is scared of. So, you better think twice before you decide to do something to me.” 

Funfly had been in the game for a long time, and she knew better than to mess with people who have a strong backup. 

But this Penny, wasn’t she just a designer? 

Maja smiled and said, “Your good friend Harden must have hightailed it out of the country by now, right? Didn’t she call you for help? The Harden thing was my doing, the Pennyfeather group is mine. You only know me as Penny, but my real name is Maja. I was once married to lan, No matter how much he disliked and was annoyed by me, he wouldn’t dare lay a finger on me. I spent three years in the Raymond family, even though lan had someone else in mind, I still lived comfortably. Because my backup is Holden Raymond, not lan.” 

Funfly’s eyes went wide, and she gripped the whip tightly in her hand. 

“You really think I’d believe you?”
