Chapter 155

Author: Summer Blossom
Before Macie could even get a word in, Alice continued, "They say that Edward's divorced. Who the hell does the Fowler family think they are? As if someone like me would be interested in a divorced man like him.

"Everyone knows that whoever marries him is cursed. He cheated on his wife and messed around with a mistress—absolutely disgusting! I wouldn't touch a man like that even if you paid me."

As his ex-wife, Macie couldn't agree more. She felt she was pretty damn unlucky.

"I'm glad to hear that you wouldn't marry him," Macie said.

"Of course not. I'm not stupid like his ex-wife," Alice huffed.

Macie was speechless at that.

Alice went on, saying, "But seriously, when Edward got married, it was all such a secret. There wasn't a big ceremony or anything. Then, the same thing happened when he got divorced. It was like he was ashamed to let anyone know. But when it comes to scandals with his mistress? Oh, that makes headlines everywhere."

She sighed. "That poor ex-wife of his. It

    Ever since Macie joined the company, there had been no shortage of rumors about her. She seemed to have a low profile, but in reality, she was a wealthy wife. She was a close friend of Hart Group's heiress, who was pursued by multiple wealthy and handsome CEOs who publicly confessed to her and showered her with gifts. And now, she was even caught up in an attempted abduction case.The staff of Brightech Studios felt like a real-life drama had landed in their workplace. Her coworkers could hardly believe it. It was as if they were living in a dream.Brightech Studios was still a small company. It was barely two years old. No one would have guessed that one day, one of their colleagues would turn out to be a woman of high society.The workday flew by. In the evening, Alice arrived on time to pick Macie up."What do you feel like having for dinner? I'm feeling better, so I can make something simple," Macie said from the passenger seat."You go ahead and buy whatever you like. I have

    The next day at 8:00 am, Macie finally returned to work after taking three days off.As soon as she got back to her desk, a few coworkers she usually got along with came over to ask why she had gone quiet and hadn't replied to any of their messages."It's nothing serious. I was in the hospital for a few days," Macie said, smiling. "I lost my phone and just bought a new one yesterday. I didn't see any of the messages. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to ignore anyone."The moment she mentioned that she had been hospitalized for several days, her coworkers were visibly shocked."Oh my god. Something that severe had happened, and you're still so calm about it. Your mindset is incredible," one of them said, full of admiration."What happened? Were you sick? You do look a bit pale—definitely not as well as last week," another said.Macie decided to go with the explanation of a severe viral flu, thinking that it was a more straightforward explanation. That way, there would be no need for quest

    "But Julian, I originally planned to pick May up and stay at her place. If we're talking about full precautions, then we should just stick to that plan," Alice said."You're both women. If the attacker really shows up, neither of you would stand a chance. You could both get hurt," Julian replied with concern."It's fine. My car has top features. And when we get out, aren't there bodyguards secretly following us? No matter how fast the guy is, he can't appear in one second," Alice said. "Besides, after what happened, the bodyguards definitely won't stay too far from us. So don't worry."Julian still wanted to say something, but Macie spoke up. "Thanks for caring, Julian. However, I don't think I'm in as much danger as I was before. The contract's been signed, and the Hale family has given their word. If things were still that risky, I wouldn't even be staying in the country."Julian heard her, let out a sigh, and said nothing more.As Alice watched the two of them, thoughts flicker

    As the end of the workday approached, Macie sent Alice the location of the restaurant she had reserved. But just then, Julian messaged her too, saying that he would be passing by after work to check on her. So Macie took the opportunity to invite him to dinner as well.Julian came to pick her up as Macie waited by the side of the road.Not far behind, a black car slowly pulled out from a parking spot. The driver had planned to speed straight toward her, but traffic kept getting in the way.Frustrated, he began to switch lanes, inching closer to the side where Macie stood. His foot pressed down on the gas as he kept his eyes locked on the target, ready to veer into her at just the right moment, when suddenly, a car pulled up beside her.She got in, and the moment was lost. Brandon clenched his jaw in frustration.He had been planning to kill both of them right there. But out of nowhere, someone appeared from the side.A plainclothes bodyguard had been watching the suspicious vehic

    At that moment, on the top floor of Fowler Group, Edward asked Nathan, "Did Macie get home safely?""Yes. The bodyguards followed her all the way to the complex and watched her go in," Nathan answered.Edward listened, but still didn't feel at ease. Yosef's people were protecting Macie, but they couldn't enter the residential compound. The security system at Sunnyridge Heights wasn't strict at all. If the perpetrator wanted to gain entry, they'd find a way.He remembered what he'd thought of doing before—to buy out Sunnyridge Heights—and now, the idea came back to him.But doing that wouldn't escape Yosef's notice. No matter how small a property, it was still real estate. Edward frowned, thinking for several seconds, then suddenly had an idea."Nathan, find someone to contact the property management company at Macie's apartment complex and arrange to acquire it," Edward instructed. "Do it quietly. Don't use my name. That way, Grandpa won't find out about it."Buying the entire co

    "Dinner tonight? I'll cook," Macie said."No way. You just got discharged today. Yesterday morning, you were still getting IV nutrients. I'm worried you'll faint in the kitchen," Alice said quickly."Then let me treat you to a meal. We'll go to a restaurant," Macie offered.Alice didn't refuse this time, and the two of them set a time.When they arrived outside Sunnyridge Heights, they got out of the car. Five bodyguards followed them to the gate."Thanks. Please let Mr. Fowler Senior know that I've arrived," Macie said, flashing a smile to the lead bodyguard.The bodyguard nodded and waited until she had entered the complex before turning back.Alice stayed for a bit at Macie's place, had a cup of latte, then got ready to head back to the office."I'm sorry for taking up your time. Let me walk you out," Macie said."What time? I go to work just to kill time. If I don't feel like going, I won't. No one can stop me," Alice said, laughingly. "Just walk me to the elevator. Don'
