Chapter 192

His voice cracked, posture wilting as he rasped, “Are you still angry about the past?”

“I don’t love Andrea. I cared because she saved

my

mother.”

“I… I swear it won’t happen again.”

Never had he sounded so broken.

Maureen’s gaze remained icy cold, untouched.

Some wounds heal with time, but others never do.

She remembered countless moments of emotional abuse from Geoffrey, remembered the ache of unrequited love that crushed her spirit until she dared not trust any man or believe in love again.

“I don’t need that. Just leave now.”

Maureen replied.

Geoffrey’s hand tightened involuntarily, fingers digging into her shoulder as his eyes turned bloodshot. “Want me gone?

Unless I’m dead!”

He inched closer, wanting to soothe her, to apologize–yet the words caught in his throat.

Even a simple “I think I’ve fallen for you” felt impossible to utter.

Geoffrey lowered his head, aiming for her lips.

“Let go of me.”

Maureen twisted away, evading him.

Chaos crupted outside just as someone burst through the door, fist slamming into Geoffrey’s

face.

Caught off guard, Geoffrey staggered, blood trickling from his split lip.

His gaze locked on Gareth–all gentlemanly decorum from business dealings gone–as another punch flew toward him.

Soon both men were tangled in a furious brawl!

Geoffrey and Gareth both looked bruised and bleeding, neither faring better than the other.

But Gareth, still recovering from earlier injuries, was outmatched. When Geoffrey drew back for another punch, Maureen stepped between them.

“Had enough?”

She asked Geoffrey coolly

He froze, the corner of his mouth throbbing.

Wiping blood from his split lip, he stared at Maureen without speaking.

“Leave now, or I’ll call the police!”

Maureen added.

A bitter taste rose in Geoffrey’s throat. She’d always stood by him before–no matter what.

Now she’d chosen someone else!

Geoffrey tore his gaze away and strode out.

The moment he left, Maureen rushed to Gareth. “Are you hurt?”

Her fingers brushed his arm, making him wince.

“I’m fine.”

He replied.

But scarlet bloomed through his sleeve, staining her fingertips.

“Your arm’s bleeding.”

Gareth shrugged off his jacket, revealing corded muscle beneath. An ugly gash had reopened during the fight, blood oozing steadily.

He pressed fabric against it. “Just an old wound. Didn’t mean to scare you.

Gareth hadn’t expected Geoffrey to have some moves.

At this moment, the people Gareth brought also came in, every one of them injured.

They saw Gareth was hurt, and one immediately came to bandage his wound.

“Boss, do you need to go to the hospital?”

“No need.

You all go out first.”

Gareth said.

After the group left, Gareth looked at Maureen: “Did Geoffrey hurt you?”

Maureen shook her head: “No, you came just in time. Thank you.”

Gareth frowned slightly: “I knew he wouldn’t let this

go.”

Worry filled Maureen’s eyes.

“I didn’t expect him to chase me here either.”

“Should I take you away tomorrow?”

Gareth asked tentatively.

Maureen refused: “No need. Just help me look after Zoe and the two kids. I’ll handle this myself.”

Gareth knew she’d refuse him again and smiled helplessly.

“Can you tell me why you always refuse me?

Aren’t we friends?”

Maureen stayed silent for a moment before answering: “I’m afraid I can’t repay you.

Those words said everything.

Gareth understood completely–she could never be with him.

“I get it. Whatever happens, if you need me, call me.”

After speaking, he left with a defeated air.

Back in the car, Gareth threw the diamond ring he’d kept in his pocket out the window.

On the way to the airport, friend Lawrence called.

“Bro, how’d it go?
