Chapter 1040
Maja scrutinized the pair before her. The DNA test results lay between them, a testament to theirshared blood. Phelps, who held no personal grudge against her, had been supervising the wholeprocess. There was no room for deceit.
The hair sample was provided by Maja herself and collected by a trusted member of the RosewoodManor staff. Betrayal was simply not a possibility among Grandpa Holden’s carefully selected team.
When Clara noticed Maja lost in thought, she assumed it was about finding them a place to stay
“Maja, we’re not picky.” Clara began. “You’re a CEO, so you must be living in a mansion, right? Take usthere. We’ve traveled all the way from Crystalbrook Valley,” she continued. “We’ve had a long andnauseating journey only because we wanted to see you”
Clara and Drew looked elated, seeing Maja as their personal cash machine Their daughter had beenembraced by a wealthy family and was now a successful CEO. Back in Crystalbrook Valley, they couldbarely make ends meet.
Clara tried to link arms with Maja to show intimacy, but Maja stepped back.
The DNA test results still served as a glaring reminder of their ties Spectators had already turned theirattention towards them
Maja took a deep breath. “I’ve been quite busy recently. Let’s talk about it later.”
Clara and Drew were immediately displeased. It was clear Maja was trying to postpone the discussion.
“Fine,” Clara snapped. “If you want to delay, then give us a million dollars first. We’ve traveled a longway, and we’re exhausted. We need a comfortable place to stay.”
Maja found this absurd. Who spent a million dollars just for accommodation?
“I don’t have that much money.”
“Maja, we’re trying to reason with you,” Clara warned. “Do you think we enjoy arguing with you? Yourbrother needs your help. He was wronged. if you don’t give us the money or help him, we will sue you!”
In the eyes of the law, there was a high chance they could win a case against Maja.

triggered. She took the money and threw it at Maja’s face.
“As a CEO, you can only afford three thousand dollars? Aren’t you ashamed? We are your biologicalparents. Does this look like charity?”
The rubber band on the stack of bills snapped, scattering the cash all over the place.
All the employees turned their attention to the scene. Clara held her head high.
“Everybody, look at how Maja deals with her parents. We’ve spent years looking for her, exhausted allour resources, and she dismisses us with three thousand dollars is she fit to be a CEO?”
Drew did not attempt to stop Clara They both had thick skins and did not mind the public humiliation.Clara even sat down on the floor
“Oh, the misery! Our long lost daughter treats us like this. I wish I had strangled you at birth, Maja. Ifyou don’t help your brother, we will sue you. Think about the loss you’ll have to bear.”
Maja looked at the money scattered on the floor, and her expression turned icy cold.
She called over her bodyguard, pointing at the couple, her voice devoid of emotion.
“Throw them out. Don’t let them in again.”
