Chapter 189

After leaving Alex’s room.

Heather hurried to his side: “The doctor said Alex’s recovery this time is a miracle. I believe it won’t be long before he can stand up again.”

Geoffrey had no mind for blessings at this moment, radiating coldness.

“I rather hope he never stands up again!”

With that, he left without a care for Heather’s shocked expression.

Geoffrey drove all the way back to Pearl, with Maureen and Alex’s voices echoing in his mind.

“I mistook the person.”

“The one she likes is me, and the one she wants to marry is also me.”

Geoffrey had a terrible headache. The continuous lack of rest was wearing him down, but he didn’t want to sleep.

Finally, he arrived at Pearl.

Geoffrey took a bottle of wine and sat alone on the sofa, listening to the wind and snow outside, recalling what had happened after he got engaged to Maureen.

After he ignored Maureen and even treated her coldly, she once said: “I feel like you’ve changed.”

It turned out that it wasn’t he who had changed.

Geoffrey poured the wine into a glass and downed it in one go.

One glass after another, until the whole bottle was finished. His headache grew worse.

Leaning against the sofa, Geoffrey muttered to himself: “You lied to me!”

Perhaps because of the alcohol, he finally managed to fall asleep.
