Chapter 549 Even Anger Feels Powerless

How ridiculous?

The strategy she devised to punish others ended up having no actual impact.

Even her anger was powerless against Matthew.

She couldn't compete with him at all!

If he wanted, he could block all her paths.

It was the same with Gerald before, and now it's the same with Laura.

What kind of person had she been entangled with for so long?

Mary's gaze became a bit dazed, staring blankly into the darkness ahead, which seemed like an endless abyss gradually enveloping her.

Robert held her hand, "Mary, are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Mary moved her lips and said.

She was fine. It was just a failure, it didn't matter.

Silent tears rolled down her cheeks, leaving a cold feeling on her face. She reached out to touch it and saw a bright sheen of water on her fingers.

Why cried?

What was there to cry about?

She should have known long ago!

She couldn't fathom his thoughts!

How could she still foolishly think she could fight him?

Mary laughed at herself, but for some reason, the tears kept coming, eventually forming a continuous stream.

A flicker of hurt for her appeared in Robert's eyes. He took out a tissue to wipe her face.

Mary sniffled, "Robert, I'm fine. Let's go back."

Robert, "Okay."

His voice was a bit hoarse.

Seeing her in such pain and sorrow, he felt very distressed.

But if he didn't do this, she would never forget Matthew!

Even though they were already divorced and she had many disappointments, she still kept a place for Matthew in her heart!

That wasn't the result he wanted to see!

So, sorry Mary, for making you so sad and heartbroken. I would make it up to you and treat you even better.

Maple Grove Manor.

Mary got out of the car and smiled slightly at Robert, "Robert, I'm going back now. I'm not feeling great today. I'll treat you to a meal another day."

Robert also got out of the car, frowned, and stared at her, "No need to treat me to a meal, just take care of yourself."

"I have to," Mary said seriously, "If it weren't for you, I might still be fantasizing, but now, my fantasies are shattered."

Fantasies?

What fantasies?

Fantasies about Matthew?

Robert lowered his eyes slightly. This move of his was the right one.

"Then let me walk you up," Robert said.

"No need," Mary shook her head, "I can go up by myself. You should go back early too. Goodbye."

After saying that, she turned and walked away.

Robert watched her back for a long time, then took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and put it in his mouth.

The hazy smoke spiraled upward, shrouding his face, and making it hard to see his expression.

Mary mechanically returned to the house.

Looking at the spacious yet luxurious house, a mocking curve appeared on her lips again.

She kicked off her shoes, sat on the sofa, and stared blankly ahead for a long time without reacting.

What to do?

What should she do next?

Matthew would protect Laura, and she was powerless to do anything to Laura anymore.

What should she do?

Just then, her phone rang. She took it out and saw it was a call from Sophia.

She tugged at her lips and answered the call, "Ms. Sarah, we failed."

Sophia was silent for a while and then asked, "Mary, does Matthew love you?"
