No Mercy, No Forgiveness

Chapter 180

Can't take Ethan away, leave Jacob behind?

Maureen knew this was a rare opportunity; if they delayed, she might not be able to take Ethan away later.

It seems I'll have to take Ethan away first; Sean is mistaken, and once he knows it’s not his child, he'll surely let

him go.

Okay, I'll remind him more now.

Katherine said.

At Seaside Villa, Katherine was already tired of saying it’s not your

son.

She could only try a different way: “Sean, I've only slept with one man in my life, and that man definitely wasn’t

you.”

Jacob hadn't been to kindergarten for two days, and Sean stayed hwith him while working.

Outside, Katherine was making a huge fuss, but Sean ignored her at first.

Until he heard she threatened to go find Grandpa Albert.

Only then did Sean let her in and agree to a paternity test.

Katherine hugged Jacob, sobbing loudly: “Sweetie, did it scare you?”

E

Jacob had to admit-Aunt Katherine might suck at everything else, but her acting rocked,

Chapter 180

He patted Katherine's shoulder: “Mommy, don’t cry, be good.”

Sean watched them, utterly convinced this kid was his son.

The paternity test would take four or five days, so Jacob had to stay put.

“Sean, you better keep your promise, or I'll get Grandpa Albert to set things straight.”

Katherine now knew even Karaville’s golden boy feared one person: Albert.

And unluckily for Sean, Albert adored her.

Sean snapped: “Got it. Now get out.”

Katherine hugged Jacob one last time, checking Sean hadn't hurt him before leaving.

She immediately called Maureen after stepping out.

Maureen got the message and finally relaxed.

Now they just had to wait till tomorrow to leave.

Unbeknownst to her, Geoffrey was currently having someone repurchase the Ramirez ancestral hfrom

Andrea and overseeing the reconstruction of Ramirez Headquarters.

He awaited the completion of all this to surprise her.

Geoffrey even envisioned having another child with Maureen to live a peaceful life.

Yet while one planned for the future, the other planned an escape.

Inside the bedroom.

Maureen packed only a simple bag containing the dolls Ethan and Jacob adored.

She left the gifts Geoffrey bought untouched and didn’t take them.

She called her overseas assistant: “What's the current balance in the company account?”

“Eight billion.”

That much...

Maureen was stunned.

“Transfer everything to a single account.”

She intended to return all the money to Geoffrey-both to silence him and as-payment for borrowing his sperm.

As if buying it outright.

Maureen entrusted the entire sum to Thomas again.

Thomas was astounded: “Reenie, where on earth did you get this much money?”

“Just ssmall business ventures. Sorry to trouble you with the delivery,” Maureen paused, then added, “But

this time, please draft an agreement stating the return of all dowry Geoffrey ever gave the Ramirez family. We'll

be settled with no further debts.”

“But would Geoffrey even sign it?”

“He can sign it or not, that’s his call. Anyway, | owe him nothing now.”

Thomas noticed Maureen spoke about Geoffrey with no emotional undertones, completely different from before,

“Alright.

I'll handle it. When should | give this to him?”

Maureen paused. “Two weeks from now.”

She needed to ensure Jacob would leave with her.

“Got it.”

Meanwhile, at the High-End Club.

Geoffrey sat at the head of the table, his friend Larry beside him.

Larry slid the property contract forward. “If | recall right, this is the Ramirez ancestral home?”

Wayne had brought over the Ramirez estate documents earlier, which Larry spotted.

“What's the issue?”

Geoffrey countered.

“Been too busy for gatherings lately. Wouldn't be for Maureen, would it?”

Larry studied him intently.

It struck him how unusually invested Geoffrey seemed in someone.

Geoffrey chuckled dryly. “What are you talking about?”

“Funny story-Sean has a son.

Larry's lips curved strangely.

Geoffrey stiffened. “A son?”

“Yeah. Heard the kid's four already, attends kindergarten. Probably attended your last gala-might’ve even seen

him.”

Larry remarked.

Geoffrey wasn’t overly curious. Sean was a womanizer who played the field, so having an illegitimate child

wasn't surprising.

He checked the time. It was getting late, so he stood up:

“I've got things to handle. Heading back now.”

Larry crossed his left leg over his right and suggested, “Let’s visit his kid in a couple days, yeah?”

Geoffrey neither refused nor agreed.

He hadn’t gone far when his phone rang.

Chapter 181

The next morning, Maureen rose from bed to the sound of running water in the bathroom.

She put on her everyday clothes, freshened up, and waited downstairs with her small bag.

Soon Geoffrey emerged in casual wear, looking noticeably gentler.

As they stepped outside, the biting cold greeted them, a faint drizzle drifting down.

On their way to Springwood, Geoffrey's phone rang-Andrea was calling.

Maureen noticed him decline the call.

Yet moments later, a text appeared: “Geoffrey, please answer. Something's happened.”

Maureen planned to reveal Andrea’s true colors at the opening ceremony, not now.

She hadn’t expected Andrea to reach out to Geoffrey so desperately.

“Go ahead. It must be urgent,” Maureen said, her voice considerate.

When the phone rang again, Geoffrey answered it.

After an unclear conversation, he hung up and told Maureen, “There's an issue at the Film Premiere. I'll head

over and be back at Springwood soon.”

What problem requires a CEO's personal attention?

Maureen thought sarcastically-it was simply because Andrea was involved.

She replied with unusual ease: “Alright. Ethan and | will wait at Springwood.”

Not this time.

Her eyes curved like crescent moons, starlight shimmering in their depths-utterly captivating.

Geoffrey suddenly pulled her into an embrace.

Leaning against his shoulder, she realized this farewell would be permanent. Resentment toward his past

indifference began to fade.

“Maureen...” Geoffrey started, but swallowed his words.

Unbothered, she tilted her head skyward. Raindrops mixed with snowflakes drifted down.

“Geoffrey, it's snowing.”

A snowflake landed on his shoulder, melting instantly into a droplet.

He released her, draping his coat over her shoulders. “See you later.”

“Mhm.”

He then boarded another car bound for the Film Premiere.

After he left, Maureen departed for Springwood.

Because Geoffrey had given permission, no one stopped them at the entrance.

The Film Premiere was at the Film Studio.

On the way, Geoffrey looked at Maureen's profile picture and typed, “Wait forto cback, and we'll hold

our wedding again.”

After typing, he was about to send it but felt it wasn’t appropriate.

He edited it over and over until it becjust, “Wait for me.”

For sreason, he felt uneasy today.

Earlier, Andrea had said that the crazy fan from the Film Premiere was back, hiding and sending her threatening

messages, saying he would kill her.

Andrea just wanted an excuse to get Geoffrey to come. She never expected Frank to actually be at the venue,

using Maureen's invitation.

In the luxury car, the bodyguard arranged by Gareth was sitting right next to Frank.

Frank clenched his fists tightly, watching Andrea being interviewed by the media. At this highlight moment, his

eyes were bloodshot: “She’s living the high life now, with all the money and fshe could want!”

“But because of her, | lost my hand everything!”

The bodyguard beside him said, “That's why our boss is giving you this chance. It’s up to you

to make the most of it.”

“I think you know better than anyone how to make Andrea and Geoffrey lose face together!”

Gareth wasn’t just after ruining Andrea’s reputation.

He also wanted to make Geoffrey a laughingstock to the whole world.

Right now, Gareth and his friend Lawrence were drinking in a tall building nearby, ready to watch the show.

Lawrence thought he was truly insane, offending Geoffrey for a woman.

“Man, this way we won't survive in the country.”

Gareth looked at him: “Is it

easy how?”

Lawrence couldn’t help but smile.

Yeah, Geoffrey had nearly blocked every path for Gareth.

Luckily, Geoffrey didn’t know he was in cahoots with Gareth, or his own path would be gone

too.

“I can’t wait to see Geoffrey get humiliated, but this Andrea, she’s so annoying.”

Unlike other men, Lawrence owned a film group and despised starlets who climbed the ladder opportunistically.

At ten, the Film Premiere finally began.

The event drew crowds, with media swarming to report live.

Fans and spectators poured in.

When Geoffrey arrived, he caused a media frenzy.

The moment Andrea spotted him, she told the director and rushed to his side.

Media jumped at shadows, frantically training cameras on him.

“Geoffrey, he might be hiding nearby right now. I'm terrified.”

Andrea trembled slightly, adding: “I saw news where a star got hurt at a Film Premiere.

“It was okay when he was alone. Today in the dressing room, | saw someone following him, probably Gareth’s

bodyguard from last time...”

Andrea would never have guessed her random comment hit the mark.

“On my way here, | had everyone present investigated.”

Geoffrey replied.

After speaking, he shot an irritated glare at the reporters aiming cameras at him.

“If you want to keep your jobs, get lost!”

Reporters hastily turned their lenses away.

But they couldn’t stop sfrom secretly live-streaming the scene.

He deleted the message impatiently.

Back at Pearl,

Maureen was already in bed.

After showering, Geoffrey effortlessly pulled her into his arms.

Remembering Sean now had a child, he covered her with a flurry of kisses.

Maureen couldn't resist.
