Divorce Failed! My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 336

"And one more thing—tell Timothy to stop using the word "clothes" to describe women."

"That kind of disrespect has a way of coming back to bite you."

Andres offered the private room a polite nod that somehow managed to feel chilly at the same time.

"Carry on. I'll take off."

With that, he left The Sapphire Lounge without a backward glance, Hans and a cluster of bodyguards falling in behind him.

The spacious room went dead silent.

Everyone had been rattled by Andres's presence—Timothy most of all, his face tight with embarrassment.

He'd assumed that, thanks to his connection with Caden, he could pressure Andres into giving him what he wanted.

Reality proved otherwise.

Once Andres put you on a no-contact list, what came next could be career-ending. Life-ending, if you depended on certain circles to survive.

Simon lounged back in a leather chair, watching Andres blow out of the room like a sudden gust of wind. The smile at the corner of his mouth only grew.

So it was true—coming back from overseas meant walking into bigger and bigger storms.

"Andres… I'd love to see whether that noble talk of "true love" turns into a joke when real life gets involved."

At the same time, inside The Quiet Garden.

Maeve held her breath, eyes fixed on the shifting numbers on her computer monitor.

When the 'OK' finally popped up, there was an unmistakable ring of triumph in her voice. "Yes! It worked!"

Her fingers flew over the keyboard, and she fired the freshly generated data to a designated email address as fast as she could.

Murray, built like a brawler and about as scientific as a brick, had no idea what Miss Vance was even trying to accomplish.

Through the glass wall, he watched Maeve moving briskly around the lab.

Murray said, "Mr. Andres messaged again. He'll be done in about half an hour."

"After that, he'll come pick you up personally and take you back to Azure Bay."

Maeve's eyelids were practically fighting to stay open. "He can do his thing. Let's just go back first."

Murray immediately messaged Andres: "Miss Vance and I are heading back to Azure Bay now."

On the way over, Murray had driven Maeve's SUV. It looked a little beat up, but it ran well enough.

They got in—Maeve in the passenger seat, Murray behind the wheel as usual.

"If you're tired, Miss Vance, close your eyes for a bit. I'll wake you when we get to Azure Bay."

The night wind through the cracks in the car chased away some of her drowsiness. She turned a little toward him, suddenly in the mood to talk.

"How long have you worked for the White family?"
