The Apology from My Ex and His Mistress novel Chapter 73

“I almost forgot, Roxanne only had half a year left. This time, the dress she wore was actually kind of like a wedding dress, a black wedding dress. I cried to death.”

“Yeah, Roxanne must’ve really wanted to marry Maxwell too, but too bad there’s still someone in Maxwell’s way!”

“Please, really, Stephanie just get lost, didn’t you guys see, Roxanne fainted last night because of her crazy busy schedule lately, but even so, she still wanted to speak up for those sick kids and show her love, Stephanie, how can you even compare to that?”

For a while, the praise for Roxanne got even stronger, and it brought a lot of tears.

Inside the charity auction dinner.

Jeremiah looked at those comments online, and he was pissed off.

“I was really speechless,” Jeremiah said to Stéphanie, “I’m telling you, the company didn’t even invite Roxanne!”

“How could a proper charity dinner like ours ever invite a three?”

“You saw what she was promoting out there? Some wedding dress or whatever? So disgusting! Our theme was supposed to be about raising money for seriously ill kids, getting more people to see what they’re going through, but now it’s all just gossip about her and Maxwell!”

Jeremiah got angrier and angrier as he spoke.

The wedding dress, and that Maxwell, everyone was saying he was making all kinds of exceptions for Roxanne.

Was this when Stephanie died!

“I really hadn’t seen anyone be a third wheel so shamelessly!”

Stephanie was really grateful that Jeremiah stood up for her.

But they couldn’t do anything.

Just because Roxanne had a “get out of death free card” on her-“Roxanne only had six months to live.”

As long as it was still there, a lot of things could be endlessly forgiven.

On the other side, Maxwell was also looking at his phone.

Glancing at the words on the trending topic, Maxwell was sure the marketing outside had already gone wild.

So, he opened the messages page and took a look.

No new updates from her.

Maxwell frowned a little, Bad network?

Last time after he left the Humphrey Building with Roxanne, Stephanie acted with McKayla and Patrick.

The message page was still stuck on what he sent her-“Grandpa’s not doing well, wants to see you.”

He pulled up, still no news.

His fingers paused for a moment, Maxwell exited the chat box, but the next second, broken messages kept popping up.

The internet was really smooth.

It was her who didn’t text him.

Maxwell’s lips were pressed together.

“Max?” Roxanne next to him noticed something was off and called out to him, “What’s wrong?”

Maxwell closed his eyes, put away his phone, and when he opened his eyes again, the calm was back in his eyes.

He shook his head, just his hand hidden under the table tightened a little.

Time passed slowly, and one competitor product after another was put up and then bought by buyers.

Donors could decide their own donation percentage, and the Conway Group’s auctions liked to put all items with the same percentage in the same session, so at this charity auction dinner, except for items specially marked, the donors‘ donation percentage was 70%.

So, only the first Ming Dynasty antique used to warm up the event was
