No Mercy No Forgiveness (Maureen) novel Chapter 87

Chapter87

“My personal affairs aren’t your concern.”

Wayne knew he’d overstepped. Behind his gold–rimmed glasses, his eyes dimmed.

“I’m sorry.”

Wayne always knew his limits. The reason he reminded Geoffrey this time was that he didn’t want him to regret it later.

Over the past four or five years since Maureen disappeared, he knew Geoffrey’s changes better than anyone.

Geoffrey didn’t blame him. After seeing him leave, he returned to the

room.

Maureen had just received Katherine’s call, telling her she’d been released late last night.

“Reenie, did you go find Geoffrey?”

Katherine felt something was off. When she called Maureen last night, no one answered.

“Yeah, I told him about it yesterday.”

Maureen didn’t hide it.

“Then did he give you trouble?”

Katherine sounded anxious.

“No.”

Maureen saw Geoffrey return and added, “I’ll talk to you later.”

Maureen hung up.

Geoffrey walked in: “Who called?”

“My friend, Katherine.”

Maureen stood up and looked at Geoffrey: “Where’s Ethan?

I need to see him. He’s always been frail and needs constant medical

care.”

“The place he stays has a medical team.”

Meaning no.

“He’s my son! I must see him!”

Maureen knew begging wouldn’t work if he refused.

Truth was, she felt terrified inside.

Maureen feared Geoffrey wouldn’t believe her. If he took Ethan for a paternity test, he’d discover her lie–that Ethan was his child.

“Stay put at home. I’ll let you see him.”

“Is he the only thing you can talk to me about?”

Maureen stared at him, puzzled.

“What have you been doing abroad all these years?

Why come back?”

What baffled Geoffrey most was her appearance at the charity auction, followed by her collaboration with Sutton Group.

He didn’t believe in coincidences.

One lie often demands countless others to sustain it.

“I told you I wanted a fresh start. As for returning…”

Maureen lifted her chin, meeting his intense gaze head–on. “What if I said it’s because I couldn’t accept defeat? Would you believe that?”

“I couldn’t accept pouring so much into us while you never cared. So I came back… to see your attitude.”

She knew only this explanation might convince Geoffrey.

Because he was that arrogant–convinced she’d never leave him, never love another.

Geoffrey’s eyes narrowed with scrutiny. “Just that?”

“Mm.”

Maureen nodded.

Geoffrey’s heart sank.

Not because of her words, but her gaze.

Having been in the business world for years, how could he not tell if someone was lying?

From Maureen’s eyes, he couldn’t detect any resentment toward him…

Geoffrey’s throat tightened: “Let bygones be bygones.. From now on, let’s build a life together.”

He dropped that line and walked out.

In the end, he chose to deceive himself.

Though Geoffrey had Maureen stay at Pearl, he didn’t restrict her freedom.

She could leave Pearl and go elsewhere.

After Maureen exited Pearl, Justin’s car slowly emerged from hiding: “Ms. Ramirez.”

“Are you alright?”

Justin asked with concern.

Yesterday, after Maureen arrived at Pearl, her listening devices got jammed. Justin heard nothing and knew nothing about what happened to her.

Maureen shook her head: “Mm.

I’m fine.”

“Shall we head back to the Governor’s Mansion now?”

Justin inquired.

“To Katherine’s House.”

“Okay.”

Justin drove.

Along the way, Maureen gazed out the window, her mind replaying last night’s events.

“Did Geoffrey bring Ethan back?”

When Katherine learned about Ethan, she was completely stunned.

“Yeah, we still don’t know where he took Ethan.”

Maureen’s eyes were filled with worry: “Also, he already knows my amnesia was fake.”

“I’ll have to live with him now, so please take good care of Jacob. Make sure he doesn’t find out about Jacob.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely hide Jacob well.”

Katherine assured with full confidence.
