After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Maria let out a short laugh, almost as if she had just heard the most absurd joke.

Fawn frowned. "What's so funny?"

Maria took a sip of her coffee, then said calmly, "Miss Powell, you've misunderstood. I didn't stop him from doing anything-it was his decision."

"That's impossible!" Fawn didn't believe her. "If you hadn't said something, he wouldn't have refused so decisively!"

Tears began streaming down Fawn's face, her expression filled with frustration. "You ruined it for us! Now I have to marry that old man! He's nearly sixty, and I'm only twenty-three! Why should I marry him? Don't you worry about karma for what you've done?" Maria raised an eyebrow at her, a bit surprised by the outburst. "Miss Powell, am I your parents? Am I the one forcing you into that marriage?"

Fawn bit her lip. "If you hadn't said anything to Sidney, he would've agreed!"

Maria's eyes grew cold. "You're only thinking about yourself. You believe marrying him would solve your problems, but have you thought about him at all? Do you know what kind of people your parents are? If you marry him, they won't just let him go. What do you think will happen to him then?"

Fawn was stunned into silence.
