Chapter 61

"Mr. Blackwood, you may leave. Just make sure that the trending topic is taken down," Edward said.Alaric was momentarily stunned but quickly nodded in relief. "I assure you, this won't happen again.""There's no need for overnight shifts. My personal affairs are my own to handle," Edward said indifferently.With that, Alaric left. Nathan was about to follow when Edward stopped him. "Did you find the place I asked for?""I've shortlisted five properties. When you have time, you can review them," Nathan replied. "Now," Edward curtly instructed.Nathan immediately sent the files to Edward's email and prepared to go through them individually. But before he could finish describing the first option, Edward cut him off, saying, "This one."Nathan paused, surprised. He had expected Edward to be picky or even reject all of them, forcing him to look for more options. But instead, the latter made an immediate decision, as if he were eager to move that woman out as soon as possible.With

"Ed, please don't be mad at me, okay? I swear, I didn't mention your name," Sharon pleaded, her voice fragile, as if she were on the verge of breaking.Edward took a deep breath and said, "Even if you posted it from a private account without mentioning my name, the Rose Crown necklace is one of a kind. The paparazzi were already hounding me after the fashion show incident.""I'm sorry, Ed. I didn't think it through…" Sharon sobbed.Hearing her cry, Edward pressed his lips together and stayed silent for a few seconds.He ultimately decided to let it go. He thought that Sharon was a simple person and had probably posted it out of excitement. As for the timing, she had said that she was up late last night, so he figured that it likely wasn't intentional."Stop crying. I was just asking. Just don't post things so casually in the future. It's too easy for the paparazzi to link us together," Edward said, his tone softening.Sharon sniffled, her voice still slightly choked, but the corn

Chapter 63

Instead of the familiar voice Edward was expecting, a mechanical prompt sounded. "Sorry, the number you dialed is unavailable. Please try again later."Edward froze. He didn't know why the number could be unavailable.He hung up and redialed Macie's number repeatedly. But each time, he got the same response. Anger immediately surged within him.Before, when he had called her over a hundred times, the calls had at least gone through. She had just refused to pick up. But now, it seemed that she had blocked his number.Edward clenched his fists, a cold laugh escaping his lips. He thought, "Very good, Macie. I gave you an out, and you refuse to take it. Do you really want me to go to the hospital to find you? Dream on!"It had been four days since the gas leak incident, and he hadn't even scolded her. He had even arranged for Sharon to move out. Not only was Macie ungrateful, but her attitude had gotten worse. Now, she was even pulling this stunt.Seething, Edward felt like he had

Chapter 64

Alice wanted to check Macie's injuries, but the latter stopped her, saying that it was nothing serious.Instead, Alice hugged her again, but gently this time. "I'm sorry. I didn't know you were hurt. I just got too excited after not seeing you for two years.""I should've told you earlier. I didn't want you to worry. I missed you too," Macie said.Reunited after so long, they walked through the shopping district hand in hand. Macie needed new clothes, and Alice helped her pick out several professional outfits for work."Get a few casual dresses too—something fresh and elegant, like your style," Alice suggested, handing her a few more pieces.Macie looked at the different styles of clothing. Over the past two years, she had barely dressed up, always wearing plain T-shirts and long pants as a housekeeper.When she first married Edward, she used to wear beautiful clothes, wanting to show him her best self. But all she received in return was a cold remark. "You look like a streetwalk

"I'm not forcing you. Just tell me when you're ready," Alice said before sighing."Okay," Macie replied, her smile faint.After purchasing all the clothes that fit, they moved on to picking out high heels before finally stepping into a hair salon."Cut my hair shorter—just to my collarbone," Macie instructed as she sat in front of the mirror.The stylist nodded and began trimming while Macie stared at her reflection. She really did look lifeless, drained of any energy or vitality. But she had left Edward. So, wasn't she supposed to start living well? She had escaped the cage and was never going to go back.A small smile tugged at her lips. She would take her time and heal—piece by piece."Don't just chop it off in one go. Give her layers, curl the ends outward, and add some volume at the crown," Alice directed the stylist.Two hours later, Alice admired Macie's new look. "Not bad at all. It's like a brand-new you. Just apply some makeup for work, and you're all set."Macie ra

It would be a disaster for Nathan if Macie answered his call and blocked Edward's number.Nathan stole another glance at Edward, feeling the suffocating tension in the air.Edward's demeanor was dark and brooding, causing Nathan to sense that his life might be in danger."Sorry, the number you dialed is unavailable. Please try again later." The mechanical voice echoed again. Edward froze while Nathan was grateful for the situation."Try calling again," Edward ordered.Nathan redialed several times, but the response was always the same.Edward let out a soft chuckle. "So, she treats everyone the same, huh?"Just like that, the anger he had been brewing faded away, his mood inexplicably lighter, though he wasn't quite sure why."Forget it. You can go. She's blocked you, too," Edward said.Nathan blinked in confusion, then glanced down at his phone. He finally understood that Edward was mad that Macie had blocked him."Mr. Fowler, this might not necessarily mean that you were

Nathan fell silent. He wondered if he had just wasted his breath as it seemed like Edward still didn't believe him.Inside the elevator, Edward's expression remained dark.He didn't think it mattered that Macie had explained to Nathan back then. After all, she hadn't said it directly to him. Instead, she had told Nathan not to tell him.Edward felt that Macie could have just called him and cleared the situation up herself if she genuinely thought that he had wronged her.He had already given her multiple chances to step down from her stubbornness. Would it kill her to take the initiative even once?Frustrated, Edward drove to the restaurant where he had made a reservation.Sharon had arrived early and was flipping through the menu.Although they had argued in the morning, Edward had agreed to have lunch with her without much hesitation.Sharon took it as a sign that they had no significant issues. She believed that if she kept pushing, she would reignite the love he once had fo

Chapter 68

As Macie listened to Julian speak, she felt genuinely happy for him. His long-time dream had finally come true."Speaking of which, I have to thank Macie. She was the one who secured a ten-million-dollar angel investment back then," Julian said, looking at her."May, that's amazing! Why didn't you ever mention it?" Alice exclaimed in surprise."It's because she left to go abroad right after securing the investor. I was deeply touched and even wanted to make her a shareholder, but she disappeared so suddenly." Julian sighed.Macie's mind drifted back to two years ago when she heard this. At that time, she had planned to start a business with Julian. But then fate had dangled another opportunity in front of her—one she had foolishly taken. She had abandoned her career for love, only to become a caged housekeeper."Angel investment? May, how did you end up as a shareholder? Do you get dividends, too?" Alice asked, catching onto the crucial detail."Later, the angel investment turned

Chapter 69

At the restaurant's entrance, Edward confirmed his reservation, and the waiter led him to his table. As he walked, he absentmindedly turned his head, scanning the room. His steps briefly faltered.His gaze locked onto a woman at a nearby booth. But just as he focused his sight, she lifted a menu, obscuring her face. For a split second, he could have sworn that he saw Macie.As he followed the waiter, he kept looking in that direction. Just as he was about to glimpse her profile, a large pillar blocked his view. When he looked again, he could only see the back of her head.He saw that the woman had short hair. With that, he concluded that it wasn't Macie and she had long hair.Moreover, he assumed that she was still in the hospital. So, there was no way that she could be there.Edward finally withdrew his gaze, expressionless. He figured that he must have been seeing things.Or perhaps he was just too fixated on her. She had blocked him, and he had spent the entire morning sulking

Chapter 70

A smirk tugged at Sharon's lips as she plotted in her mind.The main course arrived, but Edward barely ate. Instead, he finished nearly an entire bottle of red wine. When a second bottle was opened, the alcohol began taking effect."No more, Sharon. I still have work this afternoon," Edward said, moving his glass away to stop her from refilling it."You seem stressed. I'm guessing that work has been overwhelming. A little wine and a nap in your office will help you feel refreshed," Sharon gently coaxed.Edward listened, though his bad mood wasn't because of work. It was because of Macie.She still hadn't reached out to him and wasn't answering his calls. It frustrated and enraged him, leaving him restless.In the end, he placed the glass back on the table and nudged it toward Sharon. She poured him another drink.Meanwhile, Macie and her friends had finished with their meals. Julian paid the bill as they got up to leave."I need to use the restroom. May, come with me?" Alice as
