Chapter202

Geoffrey didn’t answer. For him, getting anything was as easy as snapping his fingers.

Maureen didn’t press further. She settled onto the warm sofa, gazing at the familiar surroundings with nothing but nostalgia in her eyes.

“If you like this place, we’ll live here from now on.

Geoffrey said.

Maureen realized he’d misunderstood.

For someone who’d never been loved by her mother growing up, she actually hated this place.

Though her father treated her well, he spent most of his time working.

When her father left home, she’d stay here watching her mother and younger brother share warm moments–like an outsider.

“I don’t want to live here.”

Geoffrey fell silent.

Maureen looked at him: “You should return this house to Andrea.”

“We’d better keep things clear–cut between us.”

Katherine had filed divorce papers two days ago. Geoffrey would learn about it soon enough.


Maureen stood up: “If there’s nothing else, I’m going to Katherine’s place today.”

Without waiting for Geoffrey’s response, she threw on her coat and walked out.

Outside was bitterly cold.

Geoffrey didn’t stop her from leaving, just ordered someone to follow her with strict instructions: she wasn’t to escape.

Maureen had no intention of running. She was simply waiting to face Geoffrey in court.
