Chapter 82
“Geoffrey is such a jerk. I posted so much evidence online, is he blind?
Why does he still protect that bitch?”
“I really don’t get it. What’s so great about her?
All the men are blind, protecting her!”
Maureen raised her hand and gently hugged her, not knowing what to
say.
Because whether it was in the past, when she was married to Geoffrey, or now, he always took Andrea’s side.
No matter whether she was right or wrong.
Katherine knew that the one who was most upset right now must be
Maureen.
“Reenie, don’t be sad. He’s just a scumbag, not worth it.”
Maureen’s throat tightened.
“I’m not sad. I stopped loving him a long time ago.”
“Katherine, don’t worry. I’ll come get you tomorrow.”
Katherine knew she must be going to find Geoffrey, grabbing her hand: “Reenie, don’t force yourself. It’s just staying here free for seven

days, right?
I’m not scared.”
“Relax.”
After Maureen went out and got in the taxi, she opened her phone and saw Andrea’s post on X.
Four glaring words: The innocent need no defense!
What a perfect “the innocent need no defense“!
Maureen clenched her phone, fingertips turning pale.
She rushed to the company first, but the secretary told her Geoffrey had hired a CEO and was now resting at home.
Geoffrey resting?
This was the first she’d heard of it.
Maureen had to take another cab to Pearl.
She arrived at Pearl.
Clearly security knew she was coming and didn’t stop her.
Outside the huge villa, it was eerily quiet. The surroundings looked much like before.
Just as Maureen reached the entrance, she heard a “bang.”
Instinctively using her fingerprint, the door slid open.

Only then did Maureen realize her print was still registered. Stepping inside, memories flooded her mind.
Peering through the foyer, she saw Geoffrey lying on the floor.
That was the sound of him falling off the sofa.
Maureen walked in, the faint scent of tobacco still lingering in the
room.
“Mr. Sutton.”
She approached Geoffrey, seeing his brows tightly knit, his forehead dotted with fine beads of sweat as he kept his eyes shut in discomfort.
“Geoffrey…”

He had a fever.
The cool touch brought Geoffrey momentary relief, but when Maureen tried to withdraw her hand, he seized her wrist and pulled her forward.

Maureen tried to pry his hand off, only to have him grip tighter.
Pressed against Geoffrey’s chest, she could hear his strong heartbeat.
Frowning, Maureen watched his pained expression.
Geoffrey rarely fell ill, but when he did, it took a long time to recover.
Roy had inherited this trait–robust most days, yet even a mild cold required over a month to shake off.
In the past, Geoffrey’s temper worsened whenever he was sick.
Employees suffered at the company.
Back home, Maureen endured it alongside them.
Won’t eat this, won’t eat that, always throwing tantrums like a child…
Geoffrey groaned in agony, yanking Maureen against his chest.
“Let me go!”
Maureen gasped for air.
Geoffrey threatened tearfully: “Trying to run again?”
“Listen well–this time, even if it kills you, you’ll die in my arms!”
