The Apology from My Ex and His Mistress novel Chapter 41

Chapter41

There wasn’t a spare tie in this apartment.

Back when Stephanie was around, this stuff never got missed.

Maxwell pressed his lips together.

What flashed before his eyes was Stephanie’s shocked, hurt look when she fell down the stairs last night.

“Ding dong!”

At that moment, the doorbell of the apartment was rung.

Maxwell opened the door and saw that it was Roxanne standing there.

Roxanne saw him and gave a weak but sweet smile.

“Max, good morning! I brought you some fresh flowers, look!”

The flowers Roxanne just put together came closer, blooming with fragrance, and with Roxanne’s smile right now, there was a kind of fragile, delicate beauty.

Made people want to protect.

What flashed through his mind was what Patrick said to him in the wind at dawn-

“If you liked Roxanne, then you should have stuck with Roxanne. Whatever happened with Stephanie, you shouldn’t have cared.”

“Maxwell, the only thing you could do now was let her go.”

Maxwell’s lips pressed together.

He hated the way Patrick acted all high and mighty, lecturing him.

Was Stephanie trying to force him to give in this way?

Throwing a tantrum, acting, and still trying to get close to Patrick just to piss him off?

He hated this out–of–control feeling.

“What’s wrong, Max, you don’t like this bunch of flowers?” Roxanne asked softly from the side.

His thoughts came back, and Maxwell reached out to take the bouquet.

“No,” he said.

If Stephanie wanted to push him like that, then he’d let her know that he, Maxwell, was never someone who could be pushed around easily!

“Really liked it,” Maxwell said to Roxanne.

Roxanne only had half a year left.

Her illness was partly because of him. He needed to take care of her. That was his responsibility.

“That’s good.” Roxanne smiled again.

After that, the two of them went out together.

Paparazzi followed.

Not long after, a bombshell tweet swept the trending topic-

“Maxwell and Roxanne walked out of the apartment together. Mr. Humphrey, who was always so meticulous, actually wasn’t wearing

tie. Did he forget, or… eh?”

The photos showed Roxanne bringing flowers to Maxwell at his apartment in the morning, the two of them coming out of the building together, and so on.

For a while, it sparked the curiosity and attention of onlookers.

There were all kinds of talk online, but the only difference was, this time, Stephanie actually responded.

Stephanie’s statement came out in the afternoon.

Used that account that hadn’t been used for a long time.

The statement was simple too.

Stephanie: The online rumors about a love triangle between me, Maxwell, and Roxanne kept getting bigger. Right now, Maxwell and I were still married. I made this statement on purpose, hoping all this drama would stop. As for everything else, the truth would come out later.

Just sent it out, and the nasty comments came as expected.

“What could stop? What would become clear in the future, you actually asked to leave!”

“Yeah, yeah, Roxanne was about to die, couldn’t you just be nice and get a divorce yourself?”

“That’s so gross, what did you mean by posting this? Are you telling everyone you’re the main one, or are you blaming koxanne? If you couldn’t keep your own husband because you’re not attractive enough, who else can you blame?”

“Emphasized the duration of the marriage? Who didn’t know what you
