Chapter 184
Chapter 184:
Truth be told, Maia hadn’t really blamed Chris for what had happened. What bothered her more was the sense of being casually flirted with, as if she were just another woman.
Upon reflection, she realized that Chris hadn’t really done anything wrong.
In fact, she felt oddly unworthy of his apology.
Still, it was a shame to see such a beautiful bouquet of roses go to waste. How could he just throw them away like that?
Maia glanced up at Chris, a hint of annoyance in her voice. “But the flowers you brought to apologize… they’re already gone p>
Chris chuckled softly, an impish spark in his eye. “If I hadn’t thrown them away, would you have accepted them p>
Before Maia could respond, Chris pulled the bouquet from behind his back with a flourish, as if he had pulled it from thin air.
In a soft, almost teasing tone, Chris said, “You can’t discard flowers that haven’t been given yet p>
Maia couldn’t help but smile at his sly charm.
She reached out, accepting the vibrant red roses with a small, appreciative smile. “Thank you. I really like them p>
Chris’s face instantly brightened, like a light flicking on in a dim room. He realized that flowers, small acts of kindness, thoughtful gestures, and paying attention to Maia’s preferences truly worked like magic. He couldn’t help but think that his decision to ask for advice online had been the best move he’d ever made.
Later, sprawled across his bed, Chris couldn’t wipe the ridiculous grin off his face.
Unable to help himself, Chris posted another update on Facebook. “My wife forgave me. Turns out sincerity really is the key to winning her heart p>
Magic begins at g αℓ ησ ν𝓮 𝓁s․com
The comments section erupted.
“True devotion moves mountains! Seems like you’ve finally cracked the code p>
“Sincerity alone won’t cut it. Buy her a designer bag, and no woman can resist p>
“Wait… did you really beg p>
“Give us the details on how you were sincere. I’m dying to hear it p>
“I swear, I’m dying of laughter reading these comments. You guys are hilarious p>
Meanwhile, in a hospital room, Ethan, just about to fall asleep, felt his phone buzz.
It was a message from the Facebook user JusticeBlaze.
“Thanks for the advice. It really paid off p>
If it hadn’t been for the user named Winters privately telling Chris that sincerity was the key to any relationship, tonight’s honest conversation with Maia might never have taken place.
Ethan smiled, feeling a sense of warmth. He quickly replied, “Sincerity really is the ultimate weapon! Honestly, this principle was told to me by my sister p>
Meanwhile, Rosanna, too, saw the Facebook post by the meddlesome “JusticeBlaze p>
“Who could this possibly be? What’s their agenda? Are they just meddling? And they’re even married,” she muttered angrily.
Among Maia’s acquaintances, none matched the vague description. Rosanna tightened her fists, having long harbored the urge to confront the troublemaker. Had they not leaked the security footage, she wouldn’t be facing public backlash now.
Yet the user remained well-hidden.
Nonetheless, Rosanna had already hired an investigator to uncover their identity, determined to expose them.
Her Facebook inbox had become chaotic, flooded with harsh messages. Meanwhile, Vince had seemingly vanished—ignoring her calls and leaving her texts unanswered.
