After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back by Riverflow

Chapter 944

Maria's eyes were half-lidded, her cheeks flushed as she gazed at him through the haze of alcohol.

"You... you're really good-looking," she murmured, her words slurred.

Herman gently grasped her wrist, removing her hand from where it lingered.

When he stood and put some distance between them, Maria blinked and asked, "Why are you getting up?"

"You should rest," Herman said softly. "If you need anything, call me. I'm heading out."

Taking advantage of someone in this state wasn't his style. He wouldn't do something like that-especially when Maria clearly didn't have feelings for him.

He tucked the blanket around her, adjusted the air conditioning to a comfortable level, and quietly left the room.

As the door clicked shut, the room fell into silence. Maria stared blankly at the ceiling for a moment before slowly closing her eyes.
