Maureen’s eyelashes fluttered as she hurriedly wiped her ear with a couple of tissues and washed the sheets.

She didn’t want Zoe to worry about her condition. After quietly tidying everything up, she found an excuse and said goodbye to Zoe.

Before leaving, she left some of her savings on the nightstand when Zoe wasn’t looking.

Zoe saw her off at the station and kept waving long after the bus had disappeared.

Thinking back to how bony Maureen was, Zoe couldn’t help but call the Sutton Group’s internal line.

She introduced herself as Maureen’s nanny, saying she wanted to talk to Geoffrey. Hearing this, the executive secre- tary immediately relayed it to Geoffrey.

It was the third day since Maureen’s departure.

And it was the first time Geoffrey had received a call related to her.

Sitting in the chair, he tapped the desk, feeling particularly good. He was right–Maureen would cave within three days.

Zoe’s aged voice came through.

“Mr. Sutton, I’m the nanny who’s taken care of Maureen since she was a child. Please… Could you stop hurting her?

“She’s not as tough as she seems. Mrs. Ramirez was ashamed of her hearing impairment and asked me to look after her right after she was born.

“Mrs. Ramirez only took her back when she reached school age. Other than Mr. Ramirez, everyone else in the family treats her as a maid…

“You and Mr. Ramirez are the ones in Karaville she cherishes and loves the most. Please… I’m begging you, be nice to her…”

Geoffrey’s good mood was ruined when he heard Zoe’s sobbing voice.
