Meanwhile, Maureen had arranged things for Zoe and Steven, called Katherine too, telling Jacob she was heading back to Karaville for a bit.

Then she and Geoffrey took the car back to the old house in Karaville.

Thinking about what Alex said last time they met, Maureen felt uneasy.

Geoffrey sensed it too and tightened his grip on her hand.

Maureen glanced at him but didn’t pull away.

Night had fallen when they arrived at the Sutton ancestral home.

A servant opened the door: “Young Master, Ms. Ramirez, dinner is ready.”

Geoffrey stared coldly at the maid. “What did

you

call my

wife?”

He distinctly remembered instructing all staff before his amnesia that Maureen was to be addressed as Young Madam.

The maid immediately lowered her head and corrected herself:

“Young Madam.”

She hadn’t forgotten Geoffrey’s orders, but with Alex now running the household–and given her history of targeting Maureen–old habits died hard.

Maureen hadn’t expected Geoffrey to defend her. Surprise flickered through her, softening her

view of him.

They walked toward the dining hall together after exiting the car.

Alex and Elizabeth had arrived earlier. Elizabeth’s displeasure from the afternoon’s events still simmered beneath her composed surface.

Her gaze instantly locked onto Maureen as the couple entered.

Elizabeth had only done a cursory background check on Maureen and hadn’t seen her photo.

The woman before her bore unsettling resemblance to her own features–yet Maureen’s eyes held extraordinary beauty, like limpid pools capturing moonlight, unforgettable at first glance.

Only when Elizabeth noticed the hearing aid did the knot of envy in her chest case slightly.

She stood up: “Brother, sister–in–law.”

Maureen nodded slightly, keeping up with social niceties.

When she arrived, she’d noticed Elizabeth too–exactly like in the videos, her aura uncannily reminiscent of Noelle.

Alex approached the pair and called to Geoffrey: “Bro.”

Geoffrey had a handsome face, but his expression was cold. “Hmm.”

After Maureen helped Geoffrey sit, the dining room tension thickened.

Heather was still calling Roger in his room, urging him home.

In this household, Roger rarely returned unless something major happened.

After hanging up, Heather entered the dining room.

Seeing the four present, she pulled out a chair and sat. “Let’s eat.”

During dinner, since Geoffrey was blind, a maid came to serve him food.

Heather watched, displeasure flickering in her eyes. “Maureen, not to criticize, but Geoff is your husband. Since he can’t see, shouldn’t you help him eat before having your own meal?”

Before Maureen could respond, Geoffrey cut in:

“Reenie is my wife, not a servant.”

Heather’s throat tightened, words failing her.

This amnesia–it had even altered her son’s temperament.

Elizabeth silently observed Geoffrey defending Maureen, jealousy pricking her heart.

She looked at Alex beside her, picking up some food and placing it in his bowl. “Alex, you should eat more.”

Alex stared at the extra food in his bowl, a flicker of coldness flashing in his eyes, yet his voice remained gentle. “Alright, you should eat more too.”

As he spoke, his gaze drilled toward Maureen, then he signaled a maid standing nearby.

The maid promptly came over to pour red wine.

Throughout the meal, each guest was lost in their own thoughts.

Maureen felt something was off today. Her alcohol tolerance wasn’t great, but one glass of wine shouldn’t have knocked her out. Yet her head was spinning.

She assumed it was due to the long car ride carlier and didn’t dwell on it.

Geoffrey had been served the same wine. A seasoned player in the business world, he’d seen every trick in the book.

He quietly poured his wine out.

After dinner, Maureen stood up, preparing to leave with Geoffrey.

Alex rose as well. “The snowstorm’s too heavy out there. Geoffrey, Maureen, let me walk

out.”
