Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 975

Hugo and Carly had found out Dixie had stolen their jewelry, and they'd given her a harsh scolding. She'd furiously moved out of the house.

Luther had proposed to divorce Quilla, so she moved into his place. She considered herself a moral person, and there was no way she'd live with a married man.

The fact that Luther decisively divorced Quilla solidified her belief that she'd chosen the right man. If he didn't care about her, he wouldn't have so decisively gotten a divorce.

He wasn't the kind of irresponsible man Hugo and Carly accused him of, who'd string her along and refuse to divorce. That was why Dixie was willing to sacrifice for him and take care of the bedridden Macey.

And yet, it'd just been one day, and she was already at her wit's end. Caring for the elderly was incredibly challenging.

Not only did Dixie have to feed Macey every meal, but she also had to clean her, turn her over in bed, and deal with her soiled mess. This was something the former had never done.

Plus, Macey had a twisted mouth and drooped eyes due to a stroke, and Dixie would always be frightened whenever she looked at her.

To make things worse, she'd nearly choked Macey with a takeout she'd ordered, and Luther had berated her. He warned her that Macey couldn't have solid meat and could only handle liquid foods, and he explained that Quilla used to cook soft and mushy congee.

Dixie wasn't happy to hear this. She wasn't his ex-wife who was trained to care for others, so how could she possibly know everything?

Perhaps sensing her dissatisfaction, Luther decided to take her out for some shopping.

Dixie's anger dissipated at the way he apologized. As she noticed his remorse, she found herself comforting him.

"Pizza's great. I rarely get to eat this type of food. My mom never let me eat street food, and she'd always say that it was unhygienic. You're the only one I can enjoy food like this with."

As she spoke, she gazed at Luther and added, "I'm happy no matter what we eat, as long as I'm with you."

The two locked eyes lovingly, and the owner of the pizza shop got distracted overhearing their conversation. His hand slipped, and he added too much sauce to the pizza.
