Chapter 31

"People might think I have an unprofessional assistant otherwise," Edward said.Being a mere employee, Nathan didn't dare argue and could only complain inwardly, "Don't you think that explanation makes it even more suspicious?"As the car moved steadily forward, Macie turned her head to look out the window, avoiding any questions about how Edward knew her discharge time or why he had come to pick her up.The reason was nothing more than to "shut her up"—to prevent her from speaking carelessly in front of Yosef. It could also be because he had a shred of lingering conscience. After all, he was the one who caused her fractures.In the back seat, Edward remained silent, his gaze shifting from the back of her head to her foot.The blister marks had faded, leaving only faint red traces. Macie was walking fine now, and her complexion looked rosier than before.It seemed like the nutritional meals hadn't been a waste.Edward smiled at the thought of it. Macie might be giving him th

Chapter 32

Macie quietly took a deep breath, forcing herself to suppress the urge to argue.After all, it was just a place to sleep. She didn't think that it made a difference where she slept. She could endure it… It was only for ten days anyway."Where are my things?" Macie asked.Edward, noticing that her anger had subsided as quickly as it flared, replied, "Sharon had someone pack them up and put them in the small guest room."Hearing that, Macie walked to the other small room and pushed open the door, only to find her belongings scattered messily all over the floor. Anyone who didn't know better would think that it was just a pile of trash.Behind her, Nathan inhaled sharply. The mistress had bullied the rightful wife terribly. First, she took over the latter's bedroom, and now she was forcing her to sleep in what was basically a storage room.Edward, who had followed, took in the scene and frowned slightly before turning to Sharon."Is this how your assistant handles things?

"I'm not going anywhere. I just don't like these anymore," Macie replied impassively.Edward's tense posture relaxed at those words. He instructed Nathan, "Go to the supermarket downstairs and buy a quilt and a bedding set."Nathan obeyed and left, while Edward returned to the living room.Macie continued tidying up. Most of her belongings were there, but...She suddenly stood up and strode to her old room. Just as she was about to unlock a drawer with a key, someone appeared behind her and pulled open the bottommost layer.Macie froze for a moment upon seeing the empty space inside. When she turned around, she was greeted with the sight of Sharon's smugly curved lips."Where's my notebook?" Macie demanded."What notebook? I don't know what you're talking about." Sharon feigned ignorance."Didn't you open this drawer?" Macie gritted her teeth.Before Sharon could reply, Edward approached from the doorway, wearing a frown. "What are you two arguing about?"Just as Macie was ab

Chapter 34

When Macie went to the bathroom to wash the cloth, she noticed that all her personal toiletries—her toothbrush, skincare products, and everything—were gone. Only Sharon's set remained, neatly placed beside Edward's.Macie let out a mocking laugh. She had lived there for two years, but Sharon had erased all traces of her existence within just two weeks. She had gone from being the rightful owner to an outsider, an intruder who no longer belonged.At the same time, a Rolls-Royce came to a stop outside the modeling office. The car door soon opened, and Sharon stepped out. She deliberately stood sideways to bid Edward goodbye so everyone in the lobby could see him.As the car drove away, she smiled brightly and waved before turning around, her expression filled with confidence, pride, and satisfaction."Wow, Sharon! Your boyfriend dropped you off again!""You two have such a good relationship. Mr. Fowler is rich and handsome. And since he's an only child, no one will fight you for t

Chapter 35

At 10:00 am, Macie went downstairs to buy groceries and prepared exactly what a certain someone had requested—three dishes, not one less. She delivered them to the company on time.This was the first time in her two years of marriage that she had stepped into a "public setting". She had no idea what kind of whim had struck Edward, but she planned to simply leave the food at the front desk.After explaining her reason for being there, the receptionist gave her a scrutinizing and hostile look before saying, "Please leave before I call security. We don't allow unrelated personnel to visit our company."Macie pressed her lips together and briefly remained silent before taking out her phone to send Edward a message. However, when she opened the chat, she hesitated and called Nathan instead.After she stepped outside to call Nathan, she exchanged a few brief words and then waited for him to handle it.Inside the CEO's office, Edward's expression darkened as he watched Nathan hang up the

"Excuse me, may I ask how you and Mr. Fowler are related?" the receptionist asked in a hushed tone."I'm his housekeeper who cooks for him," Macie replied indifferently.The receptionist hesitated, wondering if there really was such a young housekeeper. And if that were the case, why had Nathan instructed her to be respectful toward this woman?She had no time to ask further questions as the elevator doors opened, and Macie stepped inside, heading straight to the top floor.Macie found Nathan already waiting upon her arrival. He immediately took the food container from her hands and softly said, "Mrs. Fowler, I was just about to go downstairs to meet you, but…" He hesitated before adding sincerely, "And please, you can always ask me for help, really."Macie understood that he was a kind person. She gave him a faint smile. "You can take it inside. I'm leaving.""Aren't you coming in?" Nathan asked."I don't want to see his stinking face," she replied coldly."That's… quite an

Edward convinced himself to let it go and focused on his meal. The moment he took the first bite, the deliciousness of the grilled honey balsamic ribs nearly overwhelmed him. The happiness and satisfaction he felt peaked instantly.Listening to the increasingly rapid sounds of eating beside her, Macie couldn't help but glance at him with an expression full of unconcealed disdain. She would have thought a pig was wolfing down its food if she didn't know better.The affection she once had for him was now replaced by repulsion. But for now, she had no choice but to stay in this temporarily disadvantageous situation.Three dishes, one bowl of macaroni, and a soup—Edward finished everything in just ten minutes. Fully satisfied, he wiped his mouth and hands with a wet tissue.Meanwhile, Macie had already stepped forward, swiftly collecting the empty containers before turning to leave without hesitation.Seeing her so eager to leave, Edward couldn't help but ask, "Have you eaten?" He s

Chapter 38

Macie turned her head slightly to look at him, her expression devoid of emotion as she asked, "Have you ever cared about me before?"Edward was instantly at a loss for words, his expression frozen in place.Macie then returned to the small guest bedroom, leaving the man standing there, lost in thought, with a trace of guilt and self-reflection in his gaze.Since Edward had returned home early, Macie decided to head out to buy groceries."Where are you going?" Edward called out as he watched her prepare to leave right after he had just returned."The supermarket," Macie answered flatly.In the past, Edward never cared about such things. He barely even spoke to her. But that day, for some reason, he seemed unusually talkative.After getting her response and noticing the fabric tote bag in her hand, Edward obediently put his shoes back on and silently followed her out.Macie didn't turn around when she heard his footsteps behind her. When they reached the elevator, she assumed tha

Chapter 39

When Edward brought Sharon home, Macie was already busy in the kitchen.Edward walked in, stood close to Macie, and watched her roast vegetables while sneakily stealing a piece of braised beef. Their bodies were almost touching.Sharon clenched her teeth as she watched from the doorway. She didn't know if it was just her imagination, but she thought that Edward seemed to be getting closer to Macie ever since she returned."May, what are you making? It smells so good!" Sharon smiled as she walked in and squeezed between them. "Seriously, Ed. How could you make her cook right after she got back? You're treating her like a maid," she added, pretending to stand up for Macie.Macie remained indifferent. She picked up on Sharon's disguised mockery."It's her duty to cook," Edward replied matter-of-factly."I bet you don't like my cooking! Poor you. Having to eat what I made while May was in the hospital for two weeks," Sharon teased."Nonsense. Your cooking is fine. But now that Macie

Edward turned to Macie and asked, "Macie, why did you add more salt?""Oh no, these two dishes are too salty as well..." Sharon commented as she tasted each of the dishes. She then bit her lip and looked at Macie. "It could have been a mistake if only one dish was too salty, but for all of them to be too salty…"May, I know you don't like seeing me eat the food you made, but Ed has to eat too. If you do this..."She trailed off before putting on a magnanimous expression and turning to Edward."Ed, don't be mad. May is just jealous. I'm staying at your place, and she still has to cook for me... It's just because she loves you too much.""Macie, you're an adult. Don't you think that you're being childish?" Edward couldn't hold back anymore and slammed the table. "Sharon is only staying here temporarily. Didn't I tell you beforehand? She'll only stay in your room for a short while. Can't you be a little more understanding?"As the two of them echoed each other, Macie picked up her p
