Surprised, she blurted out, “Hey, that’s Ms. Ramirez, right?”
Geoffrey instinctively looked over and saw Maureen chatting and laughing with a man.
His expression darkened at once.
Maureen cto a bar to get drunk, and even acted so intimately with a man?
Apparently, he had underestimated her.
“Geoff, shall we go ask?” Andrea looked at him.
“No need,” he said coldly before striding away.
Meanwhile, Maureen said to Gareth, “Thanks, but | can manage. You don’t have to givea ride.”
Still worried, Gareth followed her out.
“Maureen, you really can’t remember me?”
Looking at him, she tried to place him, but his face didn’t ring a bell.
“Chubby. Remember?” he reminded her.
Only then did she remember that Chubby was her good friend from when she lived with Zoe in the countryside

Gareth nodded.
It was too late.
Staying here would be inappropriate.
He told her he'd swing back to see her before leaving.
He drove out of the motel, missing the matte black Maybach parked in the shadows.
After Gareth left, Maureen curled up in bed.
The alcohol made her stomach churn, and she felt dizzy.
Just then, someone pounded at the door.
The violent noise was jarringly amplified by the stillness.
Figuring it was Gareth, she got up and opened the door.
Just as she opened it, Geoffrey grabbed her wrist.
His brutal force seemed enough to break her slender wrist.
“Impressive, Maureen.”
He shut the door and threw her onto the sofa.
“No wonder you wanted a divorce. You're with someone else already,” he said with a cruel smile.
His words were a knife, twisting deep in her heart.
Why was he here? And as luck would have it, he had seen her together with Gareth.

She was stunned for a second before looking into his eyes, which were burning with anger. Her eyes reddened as

She felt a lump in her throat.
