By admin No Mercy, No Forgiveness Novel Ch 77
Since she started college, Geoffrey had changed completely after joining Sutton Group.
He lost all his former warmth, becoming cold as ice. He no longer came looking for her when she got bullied late at night…
Maureen initially thought his worsening temper stemmed from work
stress.
But later she realized this was always his nature–she just hadn’t truly known him as a child.
“Mr. Sutton, I already treated you to dinner yesterday. I won’t see you
out now.”
Maureen said.
This was her way of kicking him out.
Geoffrey wasn’t without pride either.
“You really want me gone?”
Maureen stayed silent.
His face darkened. “I asked you a question!”
For some reason, he hated when Maureen ignored him now.

Seeing his anger, she finally spoke: “That’s not what I meant. Shouldn’t you be heading to work? I’m not going to the office today.”
Her forced explanation only fueled his rage.
After leaving, he sat in his car for a long time, unable to get over it.
This Maureen seemed like a different person–no longer the girl who hated seeing him upset, who’d once handled him with such care.
Geoffrey opened the car’s drawer to grab a cigarette, but found it empty.
The prepared stash had all been smoked up.
He’d picked up this nasty habit since Maureen vanished.
Then came the insomnia.
These past four or five years, he rarely slept before three or four, sometimes needing pills.
But his body built tolerance–higher doses, worse sleep.
That’s why last night’s trick didn’t work so easily.
The doctor said it might be stress, needing proper rest.
But resting meant remembering Maureen’s chaotic words.
He sat alone in the car forever before driving ofl.
Today, Katherine met Maureen.

She showed all the lawsuit materials against Andrea.
Maureen flipped through pages–every piece of evidence solid.
Including chat logs and recordings showing Entertainment Agency managers helping Andrea steal or pirate works.
“Who gave you these?”
“Roy handed them over, said Jacob told him to.”
Katherine answered.
Maureen felt guilty.
For so many years, Gareth has been helping me handle troubles.
She owes him more and more.
“Andrea is now deep–rooted, not easy to bring down, but your work will definitely be recovered.”
Katherine said.
“Yeah.”
Maureen thought for a moment before adding, “Andrea doesn’t know I’m Ms. Shi, and I’d rather keep it that way.”
“Got it.”
Ever since Andrea claimed to know where Noelle and Adrian were, Maureen decided to conceal her identity whenever possible.

The thought of her biological mother Noelle’s relentless demands and her brother Adrian’s betrayal made Maureen’s heart wrench.
After discussing the lawsuit against Andrea with Katherine, Maureen prepared to leave.
But Katherine stopped her.
“We rarely get to hang out, and Jacob’s still at school. Let’s hit the mall nearby.”
Maureen couldn’t refuse and agreed.
They headed to Karaville’s largest commercial hub.
Katherine marveled, “Geoffrey’s a jerk, but you’ve got to admit he’s brilliant. These business districts exist in every provincial capital
nationwide.”
“Imagine the profits in a year?
Real estate, properties, internet ventures. I can’t even fathom just how much Geoffrey’s worth.”
Maureen nodded with genuine admiration.
“These past years, Geoffrey truly elevated Sutton Group and Corporate Giant to new heights.”
“Well, it would be better if she had more integrity.”

Katherine hooked arms with her as they entered the mall.
They approached a luxury boutique where an attendant promptly greeted them.
While Katherine tried on clothes, Maureen waited in the lounge area, unaware another customer had noticed her.
A woman pointed at Katherine emerging from the fitting room: “I’ll take this dress.”
Each design here was unique.
Katherine frowned: “What do you mean?
I picked this first!”
The woman sneered disdainfully: “So what if you saw it first?
Have you paid for it?”
Unflinching, Katherine told the attendant:
“I’m buying this now.”
She immediately handed over her card for payment.
But the woman persisted, producing her own card.
As the attendant hesitated, the commotion drew Maureen’s attention.
She stepped out and instantly recognized the woman–Brenda.
The Torres heiress, also Andrea’s friend.

“Katherine, what’s wrong?”
Maureen approached them.
“This woman’s picking a fight! She’s snatching the dress I chose.”
Though Katherine didn’t know Brenda, she felt utterly disgusted by her.
“I was wondering how she could have the same taste in clothes as me. Turns out she’s Maureen’s friend. That explains it–after all, Maureen loves stealing things, especially other women’s men.”
Brenda turned the tables with a cold sneer.
“What did you just say?
Watch your mouth!” Katherine flared up instantly.
“Didn’t you hear me clearly?
Fine, I’ll repeat it: Maureen loves stealing other women’s men…..”
Nearby customers and staff turned to stare.
Before Brenda could finish, Maureen had already arrived before her, landing a sharp slap across her face.
