Sean remembered how Geoffrey once wanted a company–only for its owner to sell it to someone else.
After Geoffrey finally seized control? He burned it to the ground.
Suddenly, a car lunged toward Andrea, sending her tumbling backward onto the snow.
It screeched to a halt, mere centimeters from her body.
“Get lost if you wanna live longer!”
Andrea scrambled up from the snow, stumbling toward her assistant in panic.
Only after watching her vanish did Sean drive off.
Deceivers and users deserved to lose everything, piece by piece–to live in fear every day.
Back home, he called Larry:
“Larry, bring James over today. My kid wants to see him.”
He’d seen Andrea’s live stream yesterday. No doubt Geoffrey was furious–better let Larry handle the invitation.
Sean needed to hear from Geoffrey’s own lips: Did Andrea still matter to him at all?
When someone is determined to leave you, no matter how hard you look, she won’t appear.
Geoffrey knew this all too well.
But this time, unlike the last, he was too calm, frighteningly calm.
Wayne followed him back to Pearl and watched him enter Maureen’s room.
Inside the room, everything was as before, the piled–up gifts untouched.
Without a word, Geoffrey walked over and opened the gifts one by one. God knows how much effort he had put into finding the classic clothes Maureen once wanted and those famous luxury brands from the past.

“Wayne, get someone to sort these out and put them away. When she comes back, she’ll see them at a glance.”
“Yes.”
Wayne hurriedly called for temporary workers.
As Geoffrey unpacked the gifts, he asked, “How’s the construction of Ramirez Tower going?”
“Two more months until completion.”
Wayne replied.
“Will it be done by the time she returns?”
Geoffrey asked.
Wayne was truly frightened by Geoffrey’s current state and nodded hurriedly.
At that moment, the jeweler happened to arrive.
The manager came upstairs and, seeing Geoffrey, hurriedly asked, “Mr. Sutton, as per your request, we’ve custom–made one hundred wedding rings. Would you like to have your wife come out and choose?”
Madam…
This unfamiliar form of address made Geoffrey pause for a moment, then he replied: “Keep
them all.”
“Wait until Maureen comes back to choose.”
“Very well.”
The manager hurriedly had someone put the rings away and leave.
It was at this moment that Wayne learned Geoffrey had actually ordered engagement rings for Maureen.
He remembered when they got married, the wedding rings were just bought casually by Wayne.
Wayne couldn’t bear to see Geoffrey become like this.
“Alex, Ms. Ramirez doesn’t deserve your kindness at all. She and Gareth already have a

child!”
Geoffrey’s icy gaze fell on him: “Didn’t I teach you not to meddle in others‘ affairs?”
Wayne lowered his head.
Geoffrey came up to him.
“If you’re so free, unpack these gifts and put them away.”
“Yes.”
Geoffrey walked outside. The phone rang, and he instinctively thought it was Maureen calling, but when he picked it up, it was Larry.
“Geoffrey, Sean asked us to go see his son today.”
“No time.”
Geoffrey hung up directly.
There was still no news of Maureen. He didn’t want to see anyone now.
Just at this moment, someone had to come and provoke him, and that was Andrea.
She was afraid Geoffrey would find out about Sean’s matter. After rushing over, she forced her way in and found the atmosphere in the villa was off.
“Geoffrey.”
Geoffrey had nearly forgotten this person existed.
How dare she show her face after impersonating Heather and Sean’s rescuer?
Seated on the sofa, Geoffrey looked up at her: “What do you want from me this time?”
Andrea mistook his calm for ignorance. Tears rolled down her cheeks: “I’m sorry, Frank is a scumbag. He forced me when we were abroad.”
“He drove me to the brink of insanity–I almost got committed to an asylum. The doctor said I’d selectively forgotten him…”
Geoffrey signaled his bodyguard to toss two blood test reports before Andrea.
He hadn’t relied solely on these reports. While searching for Maureen, he’d also investigated

past events.
Who could’ve imagined Andrea stole credit for Maureen’s life–saving act?
“And during your time back home,” Geoffrey’s thin lips parted, “you also had mental issues. Schizophrenia impersonation, wasn’t it?”
Andrea went limp, nearly collapsing: “Geoffrey, let me explain! I really did save your aunt- only Maureen donated the blood. We were both…”
Before she finished, Geoffrey lost all patience.
“Seems you really do have mental problems.”
He nodded at his bodyguard. “Escort Ms. Rowe to the psychiatric hospital for treatment.
If it weren’t for Maureen, Geoffrey might never have discovered that his mother’s lifesaver was an impostor.
He wouldn’t have bothered investigating either.
As for Andrea’s private affairs, he’d never cared enough to mention them.
