No Mercy No Forgiveness (Maureen) novel Chapter 166

Chapter 166

Nicholas flew into a rage upon hearing this.

Maureen was punished by kneeling in the family chapel for a full day and night.

This was just one incident; countless others followed.

Kathleen’s expression froze, her smile not reaching her eyes: After all these years apart, you’ve become more humorous than before.

As they walked, they arrived outside a secluded courtyard.

It wasn’t far from Geoffrey’s residence. Maureen remembered this place vaguely from childhood, but she’d never entered since marrying into the Sutton Family.

She’d asked the Sutton Family’s maid about its purpose, but even the maid didn’t know.

Kathleen stood outside the courtyard: Reenie, didn’t you once tell me Geoffrey specifically came looking for you late at night during a downpour?

This was something Maureen had shared before her marriage.

Maureen didn’t grasp her meaning: Yes, what about it?

Kathleen arched her willowleaf eyebrows slightly.

I’ve always wonderedback then, didn’t you describe Geoffrey as incredibly gentle and chivalrous?

Maureen felt an inexplicable unease stirring inside her.

Kathleen smiled ambiguously. I think there’s something you should know.

Her gaze

drifted toward the silent courtyard nearby.

You might want to take a look inside.

Maureen couldn’t guess her intentions.

Why should I listen to you?

After being framed by Kathleen multiple times, Maureen had lost all trust in her.

Believe me or not, but I’m warning youyou’ll regret not checking.

Kathleen turned to leave.

then paused abruptly. This is just speculation. Whatever you see, don’t mention me. I’m just guessing.

Truthfully, Kathleen still feared Geoffrey.

Geoffrey was no gentlemanafter all, he’d brought down Edward’s father, his own uncle.

The man still lay in hospital, machines keeping him alive.

After Kathleen left, Maureen stood alone in the deserted area. Everyone else had gone to the banquet.

Maureen gazed at the courtyard ahead, Kathleen’s words echoing in her mind. As if guided by an unseen force, she stepped inside.

The courtyard was immaculate, an oak tree’s fragrance filling the air. The familiarity struck Maureenshe’d surely been here before, though the memory had faded with time. As a child, she’d visited the Sutton estate with her father.

Standing beneath the oak, Maureen eyed a vermilion wooden house in the distance. Step by step, she approached and pushed open the door.

Creak-!

As the door swung open, the interior came into view. Every piece of furniture lay shrouded in white cloth, as if concealing secrets.

Puzzled, Maureen wondered what Kathleen wanted her to see.

She lifted one of the cloths.

Clatter!

A frame tumbled to the floor. Maureen picked it up, freezing when she saw the photograph.

Two identical boys stood side by sideone cold as ice, the other with eyes curved in a smile.

Scrawled at the bottom were the words: Geoffrey (Older Brother), Alex (Younger Brother).

Maureen’s heart raced as she uncovered the remaining white cloth, revealing more photographs.

Identical group photos, but these captured their youth rather than childhood.

The man on the right wore a tailored suit, his face carved with indifference.

The man on the left stood in casual wear, warmth radiating from his eyes.

Though their features mirrored each other, anyone could tell they weren’t the same person when seen side by side.

Beneath the photos, tiny characters identified them: Geoffrey (elder brother), Alex (younger brother).

The icy figure on the right was Geoffrey. The gentle one was Alex.

Maureen’s mind reeled.

In that instant, she realized she might have mistaken them all these years!

But she’d always loved Geoffreyhow could she confuse them?

Trembling, Maureen clutched the photos, searching for more clues when voices echoed at the

entrance.

She had no choice but to slip away immediately.

Exiting through the back, she walked palefaced along the path, photographs gripped tightly.

She needed answers from Geoffrey.
