Even if that bastard died, the first heirs should be him, his brother, and Mommy.
Chapter Three Hundred Four
Small Town.
After hanging up, Maureen looked at Geoffrey still studying Braille and couldn’t help asking, “Did you hear the news just now?”
“Yeah.”
Geoffrey didn’t lift his head. “Someone’s impersonating me.”
“You don’t care?”
Maureen pressed.
“Reenie,” he answered, “I just want to live well with you now. Learning Braille will help me take better care of you and our baby.”
Baby…
Maureen’s hand drifted to her abdomen. “What baby?”
“My mother told me you’re pregnant.” Geoffrey turned toward her voice. “Don’t worry. Even blind, I’ll never let you or our child suffer.”
Maureen hadn’t expected Heather to reveal this. At least he remembered nothing.
“That’s not your child,” she stated coldly.
Geoffrey froze.
Maureen braced for his rage, but it never came.
He clenched his book. “Whose is it?”
“Not yours.”

She refused to use Gareth as a shield, turning to hide her panic.
Geoffrey caught her wrist first.
“If the father’s unknown, it’s mine. I’ll protect you both.”
Maureen stood stunned.
She only said it wasn’t Geoffrey’s, not that she didn’t know whose it was.
When Maureen wanted to argue, Geoffrey said very seriously, “Don’t worry. Since the me before amnesia could manage a multinational corporation, then even if I’m blind now, I won’t let you and the child suffer.
”
Hearing this, Maureen pulled her hand away and didn’t bother arguing anymore.
“No need. Just take care of yourself.”
Maureen quickly went upstairs and continued composing.
Although she still had a large sum of money now, no one could guarantee the future.
After all, the Ramirez Family’s assets were once worth billions, but they were eventually squandered.
While Maureen was buried in composing, the phone rang.
She picked it up and saw it was lawyer Thomas calling.
“Thomas.‘
“Maureen, I finally got through to you.”
Thomas had to inquire extensively to get her new number.
Maureen had been so busy lately that she forgot about instructing Thomas to return the money to Geoffrey.
“I’m sorry, I forgot to contact you.”
ノ
“Maureen, it’s me who should apologize to you.”
Over the phone, Thomas kept sighing.
“What’s wrong?”

Maureen felt there was more to his words.
“Didn’t you instruct me before to return the money to Geoffrey?”
He didn’t want it. I thought I’d find you and give you the money, but…” Thomas sighed again. “Just days ago, the lady and the second young master suddenly returned to Karaville. Somehow they found out I had a large sum and had me sued.
་་
“They accused me of embezzling the master’s assets before his death. Now eight billion dollars are frozen.”
The lady and second young master Thomas mentioned were Maureen’s birth mother Noelle and her brother Adrian.
Maureen never imagined they’d return to Karaville after vanishing for so many years.
If their lawsuit succeeded, not only would the money be lost–Uncle Thomas would go to jail
for it.
“Uncle Thomas, don’t worry. I have transaction records for these funds. They can’t win this case.”
Maureen recalled most of this money came from an investment by some big shot whose identity remained unknown.
Thomas wasn’t just concerned about the case–he feared for Maureen herself.
“Miss, when I saw the lady and young master this time… they seemed different. Watch out. Don’t let them bully you.”
“Don’t worry, they won’t bully me anymore.”
After Maureen finished talking with Thomas, she hung up and immediately contacted the overseas company to have a bank statement sent to Thomas.
Thomas himself was a lawyer. Though not as unbeatable as Tyler, that golden boy lawyer, he had at least been the chief legal counsel of the Ramirez and should know how to handle it.
After handling the matter, Maureen felt unsettled and couldn’t calm down for a long time.
