The Apology from My Ex and His Mistress novel Chapter 100

The colleague watched her reading the files and said. “These two are really suspicious. Even though Maxwell was already going through a divorce with Stephanie, they still weren’t divorced yet. They kept provoking Stephanic again and again. Weren’t they afraid the divorce might not go through?”

That’s what they said.

During the divorce cooling–off period, either side could call off the divorce if they changed their mind.

Weren’t they afraid Stephanie would refuse to leave out of spite?

Or did they already have a foolproof plan ready?

Gianna thought for a moment, then she looked at a few action plans on her notebook.

Finally, she clicked one of them and said to her colleague, “This one.”

The colleague nodded, showing they knew.

Time passed slowly.

After dropping Roxanne off at home, Maxwell was already back in the apartment next to the company.

As soon as he came in, he saw Edgar.

His eyebrows raised a little, and for a moment he didn’t get why Edgar was here.

As soon as Edgar saw him, he came right over and smiled, saying, “Mr. Humphrey, I had someone get the thing you were missing for you.”

It was like this.

Edgar was the head of the secretary office, which had two parts. One part only handled company stuff, and the other took care of his personal life, which was the personal secretary.

Stephanie had always been in charge of life stuff before, and she also took care of some important company matters. Lately, Stephanie had been mad at him, so Edgar was handling everything for now.

Maxwell nodded and glanced around the apartment.

Clothes, pants, ties, watch, shoes, socks, and lots of other things he usually used had all been bought again.

The nannies were tidying up in an orderly way.

Everything was his preference.

“Mm.” Maxwell replied, then went to take a shower.

By the time I came out, Edgar and the nannies had already left.

He stood in the living room and suddenly felt it was so empty, so quiet

it was scary.

No one turned around to look at him, smiling and calling him “Max“, no one was busy here, and there wasn’t the sound of her flipping pages while reading on the sofa.

It was quiet.

It was empty.

He picked up the phone nearby and found Stephanie’s chat again.

There still wasn’t any new info in there.

It was so quiet that he wondered if his phone was broken.

Maxwell walked over to where he kept the safe

He opened the box and took out the Tanzanite inside.

Under the light, Tanzanite shone.

He thought for a moment, took a picture of it, and then went back to Stephanie’s chat.

“That Tanzanite you liked.”

He typed, then thought for a bit, and deleted it.

Back then, she wanted to buy this Tanzanite because if she got pregnant in March, the due date would be late December, and this Tanzanite could be the baby’s birthstone.

But then he suddenly remembered, they didn’t have any kids.

Everything from that night seemed to appear before his eyes again.

Her smile, her kiss, that mole on her chest, the warmth of her body, and those moments when she cried and pushed him, saying stop.

Maxwell put down his phone, sat on the couch, and looked up at the pale ceiling.

What was she doing?

The buzz online got so intense, she probably saw it.

Why didn’t you come to see him yet?
