No Mercy, No Forgiveness

Chapter302

Maureen, still groggy, remained oblivious.

Exhaustion weighed her down, eyelids heavy as lead. Unable to stay upright, she leaned against Geoffrey.

Without hesitation, Geoffrey swept her up into his arms.

Resting against his broad back, Maureen surrendered to sleep. In her dreams, fire seemed to lick at her skin, a

deep discomfort spreading through her limbs.

Alex watched Maureen drift off, his patience thinning. “Big brother,” he cut straight to the chase, “it’s tyou

returned what belongs to its rightful owner.”

“The one she loves... it was never you.”

A cold smile touched Geoffrey's lips. “Her feelings matter little. | am her lawful husband. Blyourself for

pretending to bein the first place.”

Turning to leave, he shot Alex a final warning: “Employ these underhanded tricks again, and | won't hold back.”

As Geoffrey carried Maureen away, the warmth drained from Alex's eyes.

He turned to head back, only to find Elizabeth standing silently a short distance behind him.

Alex's expression shifted instantly. “Elizabeth? How long have you been there?”

Elizabeth tilted her head, puzzled. “I just arrived. Is something wrong?”

Alex didn’t press further, his voice flat. “Nothing. I'll see you home.”

Before he could react, Elizabeth suddenly wrapped her arms around him from the front.

“Alex, we're about to get engaged, letsleep with you tonight.”

Alex gently pulled her hand away: “Elizabeth, | want to save the best for our wedding day.”

Elizabeth didn’t expect such a conservative man existed. Her hand dropped stiffly, but she felt happy inside:

“Okay.”

Elsewhere. Maureen felt hot all over.

She's usually afraid of the cold, so what's wrong tonight?

“So hot.”

Maureen clutched Geoffrey's clothes, murmuring.

At that moment, Geoffrey had already taken her into the car, heading to the hospital.

He teased her on purpose: “Do you have a cold?”

He reached his hand to Maureen's forehead; it wasn’t too hot, just warm.

Down, his slender hand landed on Maureen's cheek; it was very hot.

Maureen shook her head, leaning her face against his hand to feel better: “I don’t know, let's go back quickly,

I'm so sleepy.”

“Okay.”

Geoffrey's voice was a bit hoarse.

She was pregnant, and pregnant women shouldn't drink. He didn’t know what Alex had added to the drink, and

blamed himself for forgetting to stop Maureen from drinking.

In the car.

Maureen felt very unwell. The doctor had said a small glass of fruit wine would be fine, but today she felt

particularly bad-drowsy and feverish.

“Geoffrey, where are we going? | think I'm carsick.”

“Just lean onand nap. It'll help.”

Geoffrey coaxed her gently.

Maureen rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes.

They were so close that Geoffrey caught the faint scent drifting from her.

His Adam’s apple bobbed as he fought down the flutter in his chest.

Finally, the car pulled up at the hospital.

Geoffrey carried Maureen straight to the private consultation room.

They ran stests for Reenie. Luckily, whatever was added to the drink wasn’t harmful. She'd be fine once it

wore off

Sean rushed into the ward: “Geoffrey, what's wrong?”

By then, Maureen was sound asleep.

Geoffrey motioned for silence, and they stepped outside.

“Geoffrey, why did Maureen cto the hospital?”

“She just had something she shouldn't have. No big deal.”

Geoffrey had panicked earlier and called Sean over.

After all, he couldn't see.

Today's mess only made him resent his blindness more. If he had his sight, none of this would've happened.

“Glad she’s okay.”

Sean's tense heart eased slightly.

Maureen was his savior-he hadn't repaid her yet, and she absolutely couldn't face more danger.

He'd intended to wait with Geoffrey until Maureen woke, but was asked to leave shortly after.

Reluctantly, he departed.

Geoffrey took Maureen back to his residence.

Later that night, Maureen slowly opened her eyes, clarity returning as she surveyed the room.

Shifting slightly, her hand brushed against something warm. Puzzled, she gave it a squeeze-firm

and solid.

Turning, she met Geoffrey's stern gaze and realized she'd been gripping his arm.

She instantly released him and sat up.

Noticing she was awake, Geoffrey's voice was a bit hoarse: “Still tired?”

Maureen's cheeks burned. “No.”

Geoffrey listened without challenging her: “Hmm. Remember not to cat random things in the future.”

Blind as he was, sthings Maureen did escaped his notice.

“Okay.”

Maureen never suspected anything wrong with the wine.

When drinking it earlier, she’d even asked the maid, who assured her it was just mild fruit wine safe for pregnant

women.

“Get smore rest.’

The night was still long.

Maureen looked into the room-only one bed remained, the sofa outside gone. She knew exactly who was behind

this.
