His secret spoiled wife (Lily and Alexander)

Chapter 1848

Fabian did not know what to say. He becspeechless when Maria threw him a sideways glance.

Maria was right, and her words made sense. It appeared that she had thought things through and gotten over the pain, but Fabian

still felt something off about her.

‘Just two days ago, she was still crying about ending her life, so... how could her mood have changed so drastically in such a short

time?’

Seeing her staring at him, he quickly said, “It’s best if you can get over it, but why did it happen so suddenly?”

“] don’t know either. Perhaps God didn’t wantto be sad for too long!” Maria raised her head and looked toward the ceiling as a

strange smile appeared on her face. “Hey, why are you asking so much about that? Isnt it good now that I've gotten over it? Do

you wantto die with Ree too? Is that what you want?”

Maria's reprimand rendered Fabian speechless again, but it made him feel like they were back to normal—just a little.

“What nonsense is that?” He questioned back but was not feeling any better about it.

“Well, that's it then. I'm heading out now!” With that, Maria picked up her bag and exited through the door.

This time, Fabian did not stop her. Instead, he followed her and watched her enter the car their driver drove. She was too calm, and

it made him suspicious.

On the other hand, Maria could not conceal her joy anymore after getting into the car. She took out her phone and looked at it as

she texted someone. “I just left home, and I'll be there soon.”

The receiver just replied with an emoji, which translated into an “Okay,” but it made Maria feel overjoyed as if she had just heard

the best news.

She placed her phone close to her chest like a precious treasure. After smiling momentarily, she said, “Rowan, drive faster.”

The car sped to a poker house. Rowan stopped at the entrance and turned back to ask Maria, “Mrs. Moore, is this the place?”

Maria looked out the window, then at her phone before finally nodding. “Yes, it’s here! I'm going to play poker now. Just pickup

later. I'll give you a call when I'm done.”

“Yes, Mrs. Moore,” Rowan replied, watching Maria eagerly exit the car and enter the place.

He was puzzled as it was his first tcoming to this place. Fortunately, Maria gave him the address. Otherwise, he would have no

idea where this was.

Still, it was strange. Everyone in Moore's residence knew that Maria had been in distress for the past weeks and had not stepped

out of the house for a long time. However, she had a drastic change today.

She went out for a poker game, smiling happily and even grinning at her phone earlier. Rowan could not help but think, “Is Mrs.

Moore having an affair?”

As soon as that thought cinto his mind, he shook his head and continued to convince himself, “No, that can be. Mrs. Moore's

daughter passed away not long ago, so she'd not have the mood for that. She must've been too upset that she’s in shock.”

Meanwhile, as Maria entered the poker house, she did not know what was happening in Rowan’s mind. She tried her best to act

naturally but could not conceal her happiness. Even her gaze looked lively. She was joyful and eager to meet someone important to

her.

The poker house was silent. Although it was a place for entertainment, it had great soundproof walls. One could hear nothing much

in the hallways.

Maria strode to a private room at the end of the hallway. She first looked at the room number, then at the text on her phone to

ensure she would enter the correct room. As calm as she could be, she pushed the door open with trembling hands.
