Divorce Failed! My Wife's Secret Identities Shock the World novel Chapter 946

He originally wanted to use The Binding's loophole to appear by her side the moment she fell asleep.

He didn't care if people discovered his secret; he just wanted to confirm that she was safe.

Yet when he woke up, he was still in his own bed.

This meant Maeve had deliberately stayed awake to prevent him from getting dragged into this mess.

She was pregnant and had stayed up all night—there was no way her body could handle that kind of strain.

"Mr. Andres, I think you're looking at this from the wrong angle. Since Faye's family had a hand in this case, we should be looking for their sworn enemies."

Andres asked, "Who are their sworn enemies?"

Inside the interrogation room, Maeve let out an entirely ungraceful yawn.

She hadn't closed her eyes all night, and the exhaustion had drawn dark circles under them.

It wasn't that she didn't want to sleep, but that she couldn't. The moment she did, Andres would wake up right next to her.

The fallout from that would be even more catastrophic than the uproar over her being framed for drug possession.

"Maeve, I bet you never dreamed you'd end up like this, did you?"

Seeing Nancy make a special trip all the way here just to gloat, Maeve stifled a few consecutive yawns and offered a lazy smile.

"I predicted this exact outcome the moment you hired someone to deliberately bump into me and slip something into my jacket pocket."

"Let me give you a piece of friendly advice: next time you try a stunt like this, hire someone with actual skills."

"The guy you found this time telegraphed his ridiculous intentions before he even got close."

"When he was slipping the stuff into my pocket, his sheer incompetence almost brought me to tears."

"If my acting skills weren't top-notch and I hadn't actively cooperated, he would have botched it for sure."

Nancy sneered. "Still finding embarrassing excuses to uphold your cheap pride even when you've hit rock bottom?"

Maeve ignored the taunt, her gaze drifting to Nancy's lace gloves.

"And once he acted against me, I would make an enemy out of him, exactly as you wanted."

"Then, painting yourself as the victim in a desperate situation, you'd exploit your vulnerability to win everyone's sympathy, including his."

"All of that was to squeeze me out and seize the opportunity to take my place."

"Even if you had to suffer a little physical pain for this scheme, it was nothing to you."

"People who spend as much time in hospitals as you do have incredibly high pain tolerances."

"It's just a shame..."

Maeve shook her head with feigned regret.

"Your little martyrdom act looked perfectly orchestrated, but you overlooked one massive flaw."

"The prerequisite for playing the victim is that the person has to genuinely care about you."

"If they don't give a damn whether you live or die, what the hell are you even playing at?"
