Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 2229

Maggie dropped to her knees, and the entire room fell silent in shock.

She faced Athena, her voice trembling. "Back in school, I was immature and took it out on you. I know I was wrong. I hope you can forgive me."

A minute dragged by, and Athena still didn't respond.

Maggie pressed on, her voice strained. "I've apologized. Don't you think you should at least say something?"
