Chapter 81

"I'm sorry, Sharon. I got a little carried away just now," Edward muttered.Sharon glanced at the red marks on her arm and pretended not to know what had happened. "What's going on?"Edward slumped back onto the couch, his head hanging low in defeat. "Macie. She's gone.""Macie's at the hospital, isn't she? Are you still drunk from lunch?" Sharon asked, feigning confusion."She's not at the hospital. The nurse said she checked out yesterday morning," Edward replied."What? Really? Neither of us knew about that," Sharon replied in surprise."Her room is empty. All she left was the phone I bought her and…" Edward's voice trailed off."And what?" Sharon pressed.Edward clenched his fists, his jaw tightening. "A pile of useless paper. A photocopy. Did she really think that would scare me? She's such an idiot!"Sharon frowned. A photocopy? What was that supposed to be? Shouldn't it have been the divorce papers?She stood up and walked into Macie's room, her heart racing when she s

In the hallway, Sharon clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug into her palms. Fuming, she stormed back to her room and began frantically calling Macie. But no matter how many times she dialed, all she got was the same cold, automated voice. She sent messages, but there was no reply. Sharon was on the verge of losing her mind. In the master bedroom, Edward took a cold shower, trying to calm his nerves. He called Nathan again, asking if there had been any progress in finding Macie. When he got the same disappointing answer, he angrily threw his phone across the room. Lying in bed, his eyes wide open, sleep was impossible. Macie had been gone for two nights now. The thought of her possibly being with that other man—kissing him, or worse—made Edward's head feel like it was about to explode. Anger consumed him, burning away any remaining shred of rationality. In the room next door, Sharon couldn't sleep either. Soon, she heard the sound of things being smashed in Edwa

Edward snapped out of his thoughts, flipped the tablet face down, and grabbed the files before heading out. As he walked, his mind kept replaying the videos and photos of Macie. He couldn't help but wonder how amazing Macie was. He didn't know how he had never noticed it before.But Edward could guess why. Macie had always been at the top of her class in high school, so it was no surprise that she shone even brighter in college. Although they had attended the same college, their majors were different. Moreover, he had been with Sharon back then.Looking back, Edward felt like he had missed out on four whole years of Macie's life—years when they had been in such close proximity. A wild thought even crossed his mind. What if he hadn't been with Sharon back in college? Would he have fallen for Macie?Edward's fingers curled involuntarily, but the meeting had already started, forcing him to push those thoughts aside.The meeting ended two hours later, and it was time for lunch.

"So you're saying that you didn't go all the way but did everything else?" Nathan summarized bluntly.Edward wanted to argue, but no words came out."Bringing Sharon into your home, treating her like she belongs there, driving her around, giving her extravagant gifts, and the constant headlines, and when the accident happened, you saved her first," Nathan listed, ticking off each point with his fingers."You didn't clear up the misunderstandings or visit Mrs. Fowler. You didn't even care about her while she was in the hospital."Nathan sighed.Edward fell silent, his fists clenched, his teeth gritted. He couldn't find a single word to defend himself."You went too far, Mr. Fowler. If it were anyone else, they would've divorced you by now." Nathan dropped the final bombshell.The word "divorce" seemed to trigger something in Edward.Edward shot up from his chair, sending it flying backward. Nathan flinched, taking a few steps back and swallowing hard."She would never divorce m

Chapter 85

During the day, Edward had tried sending Macie another friend request, but it was immediately blocked. He couldn't even send a message. "Macie, you'd better never show up again!" Edward muttered through gritted teeth. When he got home, Sharon had already prepared dinner, eagerly setting the table for him. When Edward saw her wearing Macie's clothes and apron, something inside him snapped. He stormed over and tore the clothes off her with brute force. At first, Sharon thought that Edward was finally making a move, even if it was a rough one. She didn't mind. But she quickly realized she was wrong.As Sharon tried to lean into him, Edward shoved her to the ground. "Who said you could wear her clothes or use her things?" Edward yelled. Sharon was terrified, tears streaming down her face as she looked up at him, her voice trembling with hurt. "What's wrong with you? Why are you treating me like this? I've worn Macie's clothes before, and you never said anything. Why are

Chapter 86

Edward's mood was foul all morning because of last night's incident. Nathan had been searching everywhere—citywide, statewide, even nationwide—but there was still no trace of Macie. It had already been three days. "When are you going to find her? Can't you work faster?" Edward finally snapped at Nathan as the workday neared its end. Nathan was at his wit's end. He had exhausted all his resources and still couldn't locate Macie. "Mr. Fowler, maybe you should use your personal connections to track down her new phone number. I can't access that kind of information. It's a privacy issue." Edward's eyes lit up with realization. He immediately started reaching out to contacts in the telecommunications industry, trying to access the database. But the telecom operators weren't privately owned, and no matter how many connections Edward used, he couldn't get through to the top level. After hours of fruitless effort, he slumped into his chair, defeated. He didn't know what else h

Chapter 87

Edward didn't think that an original divorce agreement with his signature on it was possible. "I never signed anything! I haven't even seen the document!" he roared. Nolan, now fully awake from Edward's shouting, sighed. "But the document is real. The signature looks authentic, and since you didn't call to object, Mr. Fowler Senior assumed you agreed to it." "No, I didn't! Why should I accept a document I never signed?" Edward's voice was filled with rage, the veins on the back of his hand bulging. Nolan frowned, hesitating before saying, "Did Mrs. Fowler forge your signature?" "That's exactly the kind of illegal thing she'd do. She doesn't have a brain in her head," Edward hissed. "Forging a signature makes the divorce document invalid. She's just playing games with me and Grandpa!" Edward fumed inwardly. "What does she think I am? A monkey in a zoo? How dare she mess with me like this!" He was so furious that he could barely think straight. He wanted to tear

Chapter 88

Edward would give the divorce agreement to Macie if she wanted it so badly. He wanted to see if she had the guts to take it.He couldn't believe that Macie even dared to fool Yosef. After everything the latter did for her, this was how she repaid him. Edward wondered if she had forgotten that it was only because of his grandfather that Edward married her in the first place. Sharon was still awake, having prepared another meal and waiting for Edward to come home. As soon as he walked through the door, she started to approach him, but he frowned, his expression dark. "Didn't I tell you last night not to do this? Have you packed your things yet? If you're done, I'll have Nathan help you move out." Sharon froze, tears welling up in her eyes. "Edward, are you really that eager to kick me out? Last night and tonight. It's always the same…" Edward pursed his lips briefly before replying, "It's inappropriate for you to stay here. I'm married, and Macie left because of it. So,

Edward paused as he turned the doorknob. He then glanced back at Sharon. "I haven't fallen for Macie," he said flatly. "Who are you trying to fool? You clearly have. That's why you don't love me anymore and want me gone," Sharon shot back, her fists clenched. Edward frowned, his expression unreadable. "Not loving you has nothing to do with whether I love Macie. I've told you that you and I ended two years ago. You betrayed me for money and left. There's no going back from that."Sharon still refused to believe him. It was apparent that Edward had fallen for Macie, which was why he no longer loved her. "When I first came back, you told me that you didn't mind anymore. You said you understood. How could I have fought against your Grandpa back then? He threatened me to leave. What else could I do? Did you want him to banish me from the city?"Edward replied, "Not minding meant that we could be friends again, not that we could restart our relationship."He had reflected on it befo

Chapter 90

As Edward rewatched the videos of Macie from her college days, he found himself drawn to the radiant, talented young woman she had been. He couldn't help but wonder—if Sharon hadn't been in the picture, would he and Macie have naturally fallen in love?And then there was the previous night when Edward had slept in Macie's room. He had laid on her mattress, trying to catch a hint of her scent. She had consumed his thoughts. After finishing his shower, Edward stepped out of the bathroom, the cool air helping to clear his mind. He felt like he had reached a conclusion.It didn't matter if he loved Macie. He didn't want her to leave his sight or slip out of his control. When Edward saw the crumpled divorce agreement by the bed, he walked over, intending to tear it up. But he noticed the watermark and case analysis in the document's body before he could. Edward was speechless. It was a serious printing error. Back in the office, he had been so blinded by anger that he hadn't checked
