Chapter264

Geoffrey didn’t dare ask, motioning the bodyguards to step outside.

Since Maureen refused to cooperate, Geoffrey decided to approach Justin directly.

Maureen dismissed Geoffrey’s sudden interest as a passing whim, paying it no mind.

Meanwhile, Adrian learned Maureen’s address from their mother and headed straight for Small

Town.

He arrived at her doorstep at 10 PM.

Everyone had already turned in for the night.

Shivering against the bitter wind, Adrian knocked.

Maureen hadn’t fallen asleep yet. Hearing the knock, she crawled out from under the covers to

answer.

When she opened the door, she found Adrian bundled up tight in a puffer jacket, snow dusted across his shoulders.

Without a word, Adrian tried to push past her into the house, but Maureen blocked the doorway.

“What are you doing here?”


“Let’s talk inside.”

The cold was biting.

Maureen eyed him warily, blocking the doorway. “Whatever it is, say it here.”

In the past, Adrian would’ve shoved her aside. But today, he stood shivering in the cold wind, needing her help.

“Sister, could you do me a favor?”

Sister…

Maureen’s lips curled into a bitter smile. “Second Young Master, I’m not your sister. Or have you forgotten? You said it yourself–a deaf woman like me isn’t worthy of being your sister.”
