that affection turned into pure resentment.”
“He maderealize how terribly flawed | am. | cback to prove he’s nothing special.
If | want him, | can have him anytime!”
Geoffrey stared intensely at Maureen, each word striking him like sharp knives.
Maureen then turned to the judge.
“By the way, my true love lives abroad. We have two children together.”
“Even if you convictof bigamy, Your Honor, I'll accept it. I'd rather go to prison
than remain trapped in this failed marriage.”
Amidst the stunned courtroom, Maureen strode toward Geoffrey and threatened him right there:
“Mr. Sutton, if you refuse this divorce, I'll make everything I've said here public.”
In that moment, Geoffrey knew Maureen truly wanted out.
She’d never reconcile with him!
His eyes reddened at the corners. He wanted to refuse her,
but couldn't bring himself to speak.
Tyler knew that even if they won this case, his client would still lose.
Behind him, Katherine's eyes were teary.
She knew Maureen had waited for this moment far too long.
Ultimately, due to unforeseen circumstances, the judge didn’t announce the verdict in court, opting to deliver it
the next day.
As they exited the courthouse, reporters outside had already been cleared out by Geoffrey's

Geoffrey stepped out first. He lingered, blocking Maureen and Katherine's path when they emerged.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Maureen, let's talk.”
Maureen gave Katherine a reassuring glance before leaving with Geoffrey.
After they departed, Tyler walked out.
Katherine shot him a cold stare and hurried away.
Tyler watched her retreating figure until it vanished from sight.
He approached his car, ready to drive off, when he spotted several foreigners acting suspiciously inside another
vehicle.
As a lawyer, Tyler is more careful than others.
When those foreigners drove away, he quietly followed them.
Elsewhere, Geoffrey drove himself, Maureen in the passenger seat.
Thinking about what Maureen said in court, Geoffrey spoke: “Do you really want a divorce?”
Even knowing the answer, he still wanted to ask.
“Yeah.”
Maureen nodded, then added, “If you'll divorce me, | promise | won't take anything, | just want freedom.”
Geoffrey's throat tightened.
He didn’t pursue the topic, instead asking, “Was what you said in court true?”
Maureen hesitated for a moment, then said, “It doesn’t matter now, does it?”
She looked at Geoffrey and continued, “If you still won't divorce me, I'll tell everyone I've been with someone
else.”
Maureen knew this was the worst way.

Geoffrey cares most about his reputation and would never let the company he built be hurt by
this.
“Do you know what happens to people who threaten me?”
Geoffrey asked calmly.
Maureen pursed her lips.
He continued: “A few years back, this real estate tycoon offereda land swap for my billion-dollar project.
Said he'd storm our headquarters if | refused.”
“Later, they fished his body out of the river.”
Maureen remembered now. During their early marriage, he'd been constantly irritable and
angry.
Until one dawn, she saw news about someone drowning in the river. Only then did Geoffrey's mood lift.
Shock flashed in Maureen's eyes.
She forced calm: “I just want a divorce.”
“Well | don’t!”
Geoffrey snapped coldly.
They argued, oblivious to the semi-truck hurtling toward them around the bend.
Geoffrey spotted it first. No tto warn Maureen-he jerked the steering wheel.
Too late.
As the truck collided, Geoffrey threw his entire body across Maureen's.
Bang!
The deafening crash.
Something warm splattered across Maureen's face.
Everything before her eyes turned crimson red.
Blood...

“Geoffrey...”
The man shielding her didn’t move.
Maureen screamed in anguish: “Geoffrey!”
All around fell into an eerie silence.
The two foreign truck drivers immediately fled.
Upon closer inspection, one of them was Mr. Dragon from abroad.
Previously, Geoffrey’s men had taken out the thugs in one of his hotels; after he escaped, he wanted revenge.
He pursued them all the way back to the country.
Tyler’ car arrived later, and he saw that Geoffrey and Maureen's car had been hit, the front windshield shattered.
Geoffrey fell into a coma, and Maureen also passed out from excessive blood loss in her leg.
He immediately called the police and then an ambulance.
Beep, beep, beep-
Maureen couldn't remember how many times she had been in the hospital; hearing the sound of surgical
instruments, she wanted to open her eyes but couldn't.
What she feared most was a car accident, because her father had died in one.
This time, Geoffrey was also in a car accident, and he had shielded her.
Why did he do this?
Maureen really wanted to open her eyes to see how he was, but she couldn't.
Faintly, she heard the doctors and nurses talking:
“This is the boss of the Sutton Group; we must not let him die here.”
Die...
