“Perhaps she made the wrong decision in a moment of confusion! You know she doesn’t love you!” “So what if she doesn’t love me? Am I not allowed to love her? As long as she’s willing to accept my love for her, I’ll willingly give it to her! Are you not going to allow other men to love her although you don’t love her? Do you think she’s not allowed to like anyone else even if you don’t love her? Do you only want her to feel upset over you?” Marcus asked in a sarcastic tone. “You!” Lucas was enraged. He raised his fist and swung it at Marcus’s face straight away. Marcus did not expect to get punched. He swung his fist towards Lucas without hesitation. The space inside the car was extremely narrow. None of them could dodge the other. Soon after, bruises appeared on both their faces. At that very moment, someone opened the car door. Lindy stood outside and stared at them in a daze. The men were still pulling at each other’s collars when the door opened. They instantly withd
This was the first time that Lindy had shouted at him so fiercely. In the past, Lindy always tolerated him no matter what he did! However, she had shouted at him because of another man today! He felt wronged and upset. His eyes reddened at once! Marcus, standing by the side, felt beyond gleeful at seeing Lindy shout at Lucas because of him. As expected, things were different now that he had slept with her. In the future, he had to work hard to make sure that both her heart and body belonged to him! “I…You didn’t come home last night. I was afraid that he’d take advantage of you, so I…” Lucas tried clarifying. Lindy’s face flushed red. She coughed twice and said, “You’re overthinking. He didn’t take advantage of me.” She had taken advantage of him instead. Lucas stared at her hopefully and asked, “Really?” Lindy looked somewhere else and said, “Yeah…” She sounded dubious about her own answer. However, Lucas assumed that she was telling the truth. He immediately apolog
Lindy had once dreamt of hearing Lucas say these exact words to her. However, she felt extremely calm after hearing his words now. “I’m sorry, Lucas. I don’t think I can stay by your side,” she slowly replied.Lucas stared at her in shock. “You…you don’t like me anymore?” Lindy lowered her gaze and said, “I think so.” She felt extremely calm in front of Lucas right now. All the love and misery she felt for him in the past had suddenly vanished. She did not know when all her feelings for him had disappeared. However, she clearly understood that she had removed him from the deepest corner of her heart. “Have you fallen in love with Marcus?” Lucas asked in a pained voice. Lindy suddenly raised her gaze to look at him. “After we got into a fight last night, the first thing you did when you arrived at the police station was to check his injuries! You did the exact same thing today. Both of us fought, but you only felt bad for him and shouted at me over him. You’ve cle
“Thank you! However, I still don’t know if he likes me. It’s alright. Anyways, he’s single right now. I’ll try hard to make him fall in love with me!” Lindy said straightforwardly. She had already thought it through. Anyway, she should just continue sleeping with him. It would be great if he fell for her after sleeping with her! However, Lucas told her, “He likes you.” Lindy was stunned. She asked, “How do you know that?” Lucas smiled gloomily and said, “I just know.” If a man looks for another man to tell him that a woman has feelings for him and he would want the opportunity to reciprocate her feelings, did that not mean that he loved her? If he did not love her, he would not bother to do something like that! However, he could not tell Lindy that he only found out about her feelings for him because Marcus had told him everything.He waved at Lindy suavely and said, “Alright, I need to head off to my company. You should go to work as well. Look after your own safety fo
“Of course, he loves you! Everyone can tell that he loves you. His gaze shines whenever he looks at you!” Sonnet said. Lindy found it rather unbelievable. “Is that so?” “Of course, it’s true. I told you the same thing in the past, but you kept telling me it was impossible!” Lindy smiled and shook her head. “I’ve always thought that he liked men. I assumed that he asked me to pretend to be his girlfriend so his family wouldn’t find out that he liked men.” Sonnet laughed and said, “How is that possible?! He doesn’t seem like a homosexual at all!” After thinking about it some more, she said, “I’ll ask Logan about it when I get the chance. He’s close to Marcus. He should know if he’s homosexual.” Lindy immediately waved her hands. “Don’t ask him anything. I’ve confirmed that he isn’t homosexual. He told me the truth.” Sonnet felt extremely curious. “What in the world happened? Why made you think that he’s homosexual?” Lindy quickly told her about everything that had ha
Lindy had told Marcus about her deepest and most private thoughts and feelings, yet he had betrayed her twice! However, she felt much better when Lucas confronted her about her feelings for him today as compared to when she told Sonnet about her feelings for Lucas back then. She did not feel as disgraced as she had felt back then. When Sonnet found out about her feelings for Lucas, she was still in love with Lucas. Therefore, she felt extremely disgraced back then. She felt completely calm right now. This showed that she had really gotten over her feelings for Lucas! “Don’t blame him. Where would you find a man like him?” Sonnet immediately told her. Lindy glared at her. Sonnet smiled and explained. “Think about it. Marcus likes you. He likes you so much, and he has even slept with you. However, he still looked for Lucas and told him about your feelings for him. Why would he do something that wouldn’t benefit him in any way? He did it all because of you. He didn’t want you
Lindy felt rather bad for Marcus when she saw his red-rimmed eyes. “I always follow through with my promises,” she slowly said. Marcus looked at her in confusion. He then saw a grin spread across her face. “I just told you that I’m happy to get together with him, but that doesn’t mean that I agreed to do so. I made a promise to you this morning. I always keep my promises, right?” Joy flooded Marcus’s heart. “Does that mean…you won’t be getting together with him?” “Yeah, I’ve promised to stay with you. Of course, I’ll stay by your side!” “Do you mean…” Marcus said softly. He did not dare to utter any more words. He was afraid that his hopes would be dashed if he said one more word. Lindy leaned towards him and held his face in her hands. She smiled at him radiantly and said, “That means I love you, you fool!” Marcus stared at her in a daze. He seemed to be in disbelief. “What’s wrong? Don’t you believe me?” “I feel like I’m dreaming.” Marcus had a stupefied expres
The two girls agreed instantly. After all, they were honored that their colleague landed such a big catch. If they were lucky, they might get to meet a rich and eligible bachelor too!That night, Lindy did not have much to worry about. She just had to play the role of a quiet beauty. That was when Marcus showed his all-round capabilities. He greeted her colleagues, chatted with them, and even cut up her food, taking care of her perfectly. He was flawless.Over the meal, Joanne scrolled through her phone and suddenly gasped. “Oh my, Draco’s gossip is completely taking over the trending searches. They’re all talking about his cheating scandals and bits of his dark history. Looks to me like he’s in trouble now!”Willet tilted her head. “Doesn’t he have a pretty strong backing? I’m surprised he didn’t manage to suppress the news. His opponent must be something else!”“Wow, Hendric Productions announced that they’ll be suspending him!” Joanna cried out again, looking at her phone.Li
