Chapter 1300
Maja had no idea how powerful her words were
She couldn’t see, so she didn’t notice Zoey’s pupils rapidly contract when she heard them as if she had heard
something unthinkable. Tears flowed even more freely. Maja had always been a capable boss, taking great
responsibility for every employee in her company
She was always willing to help, whether it was Shawn, Wilma. Elvis. Zoey, or Cornelia
But nothing had ever impacted Zoey as much as what Maja just said
“If you need to invest your emotions in something, invest them in Star Movie Group
Zoey clutched her chest, struggling to breathe from the pain.
Most people, upon hearing her attitude towards Belinda, would consider her irrational, trying to buy affection with
money.
How could she not resist after being treated so hombly?
No one would understand this kind of weird obsession
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut Maja didn’t just understand. She knew it was a psychological condition.
“Zoey?”
Maja hadn’t heard a response for a while, unsure if Zoey was still planning to fight with Belinda
Zoey was hardworking and clearheaded at work, but when it came to matters of the heart, she became submissive
However, she wasn’t beyond help. She was heavily dependent on Murray before, but when he married Evelyn, she
quickly moved on proving that love didn’t weigh as heavily for her as family did
Zoey quickly wiped her tears, but no matter how much she tried, they continued to flow like a broken faucet.
Her lips were split from being slapped twice and her face was swollen.
She had lost face at the top floor and from now on, people would look at her differently
But she suddenly didn’t want to leave Star Movie Group, or a boss like Maja.
She remembered something Cornelia had said recently
Comelia had said “Work your tail off for Star Movie Group and repay Ms. Pennyfeather’s kindness as much as
possible, because she’s the one who truly wants to pull you out of the dark
Cornelia was now a phoenix rising from the ashes, shining in the entertainment industry
Zoey envied her, but also felt a deep self–loathing, because her resolve wasn’t as strong as Cornelia’s
She always felt adrift, tied down only by her emotions
Maja felt her way to where Zoey was standing, wanting to check on her
Zoey worned Maja might fall, quickly came to her aid
“Ms Pennyfeather. I’m fine I know what i need to do. I’ll try not to make that call anymore, and I won’t see a
psychologist. I’ll try to overcome this myself, even if it means shifting my emotional reliance onto my current
boyfriend
Maja wanted to stop her, knowing that placing hope in someone else was giving them the power to hurt you.
But considering Zoey’s current situation, if she didnt do this, she would continue to year for even the smallest
response from Belinda
With that in mind, it wasn’t such a bad idea to place a small amount of emotional reliance on her boyfriend
Alright, just take care of yourself if you ever think of your mother, just call your boyfriend I don’t know who he is,
but if he ever hurts you, I hope you can leave him as decisively as you did Murray”
Zoey silently wiped her tears again and nodded to show she understood.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs she helped Maja leave, Belinda was still being restrained by two bodyguards. Seeing them, she became very
agitated
“What the hell did you say to my daughter you blind bitch? She a been corrupted by your company. You’re no
better!”
Belinda had no idea she had just kicked a hornet’s nest
Everyone on the top floor had been enjoying the show, but when Belinda said those words, the crowd became
instantly enraged.
A tempestuous girl threw her coffee directly at Belinda
“What did you say you old hag? Ms Pennyfeather is not someone you can insult!
Others quickly joined in
‘Good riddance! She must have eaten too much crap this morning, spouting nonsense everywhere!”
“Blabbening on about nothing? Do you know we can sue you? It seems everything you said about Zoey was just lies
Get out Or my hand might just land on that old face of yours!‘
Even several top executives rolled up their sleeves, looking ready to charge
If it weren’t for the bodyguards, Belinda would have been mobbed.
