“You can tell me that lie, I dare you to go say it to Jeslyn!!” Rex got up and ran after Maverick while saying that. This was the first time his ‘perfect‘ older brother had ever made a terrible mistake and he wouldn’t just sit back and allow him to escape taunting.

A while later, Maverick could be seen sitting on a sofa, staring at Vera with deadly eyes.

Vera couldn’t stay still with the sharp gazes of both brothers on her, so she knelt. “I swear, Mav, I’m innocent. I did nothing wrong. I tried to push you away but you were stronger than I am. You-”

“Who told her?”

Vera raised her gaze to look at Maverick before she shifted it to Rex who was making angry faces at

her.

“I- I didn’t mean for her to know. She called me and you… you happened to say some incoherent words that time, so, so, she caught on and I couldn’t deny it. I’m sorry. I don’t know how to lie. Please forgive me.”

Rex rolled his eyes. As for Maverick, his eyes were still on her without moving.

“What was her reaction?”

“She didn’t sound angry. She was happy for us both and said it had always been her wish for me to regain my memory and give Valen a happy home.”

“Can you do that? What makes you think you can be Valen’s mother? Just because you pushed him out of your stomach, you think you have the qualifications to be his mother?!” Rex was so angry right now that he just wanted to start chopping this woman into pieces.

What does she mean by, ‘I tried to push you away?‘ What woman would push Maverick away if he came unto her? Would a woman like Vera who is desperate to gain her memories back, push him away? Would Vera who was already calling that lousy woman, ‘mother‘, push Maverick away? All her tales are full of loopholes and he wondered why Maverick was still entertaining her.

“Is that all?”

“She also said she’ll be sending you divorce papers. Mav, I swear, I tried to talk her out of it, but she wouldn’t listen. She’s very stubborn. But you don’t need to worry, I intend to leave immediately after Valen wakes up. I promise I won’t come in between you two. She showed that she loved my son and I’m very happy and content with a kind woman like Jeslyn being my son’s stepmother.”

“Don’t indirectly call her an evil stepmother! Jeslyn is a fine mother, better than most mothers out there. Don’t use that ‘white lotus‘ tone on my sister–in–law!”

“Brother Rex, I didn’t… I have no bad intention towards Jeslyn, I promise.”

“But you’ve got bad intentions towards their marriage.”

“That’s not true,” she shook her head fervently while crying.

“Then, what’s the truth? You want to come back to my brother.”

“That’s not…” she froze.

“I said it brother. A woman who wants to return to her ex would do anything to sabotage her ex’s new relationship. Don’t fall for her shitty cries.”

“Brother Rex, I can’t, I can’t take this anyínore…. Wuaaah…. Yes, I love Mav, I love him so much that I’m going crazy for him but he doesn’t love me anymore, which was why I wanted to leave but Jeslyn didn’t let me leave. You are misunderstanding me… wuaaah… you are a human too, how will you feel if

“I don’t have fake emotions to burn, just like you are doing right now. My emotions are very few and precious, so they are reserved for only the right people. Your tears do nothing but make me hate you even more! I never liked you and I still won’t.”

“Go back,” Maverick waved his hand and Vera ran out of the room bawling her eyes out. Maverick didn’t utter a single word in her defense. Does he hate her so much?

After Vera left, Maverick looked at his fuming brother and sighed, “take it easy. She’s Valen’s mother.”

“So? What about Jeslyn? She’s hurting!”

“She’s my wife. She’ll be fine.”

“Yeah, keep deceiving yourself while sitting here. Women can tolerate abuse but can’t bear a cheating man, especially when he’s not remorseful. Have you called her to explain since it happened?”

Maverick placed a hand on his forehead and rested his head on this chair.

“She blocked me.”

“And you can’t unblock yourself? Has your computer skills degenerated?”

“She blocked me again…5 times.”

“Are Country Y’s airlines no longer working?”

“She threatened to jump down the building if I broke the rules.”

“Hahaha… and you can’t catch her if she falls?”

“She promised to hate me more.”

“Then lure her over.”

“I already did.”

Rex blinked and blinked again. Damn it! He wanted to make a mockery of him and prove to him that there was one area he was better than his brother but who would have thought that he already used all that he thought about?

“You used Valen?”

“Should I have used you?” Maverick side–eyed him.

“Fine. Don’t look at me like that… eh, brother, why did you allow the news of our relationship with

that girl and her mother to come to light? I’m being pestered by reporters.”

“You can deny it, can’t you?”

“What’s there to deny anymore? Tsk. I wonder why you didn’t let her die in the hospital. The golden blood is so rare, yet you allowed her to have it. Why won’t she have a shortage of blood when she drinks alcohol like her life depends on it? Brother, if you don’t allow a person seeking death to die next time, I’ll kill her myself.”

“Rossa got involved. Also, she’s your sister, isn’t she?”

“How can a Xu born from that woman be my sister?”

Meanwhile, in Rose City…

In the middle of the night, a black figure could be seen jumping fences and avoiding cameras as it made its way towards the quiet Chen residence.

The figure climbed the wall of the three–story building and entered through a window. The person was so precise like they knew their way around the house.

Inside the room, Madam Chen was seen lying on the bed, sleeping peacefully when the person jumped in soundlessly.
