All Chapters of Between Love and Scandal: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Since yesterday's incident, Mark's relationship with this family has been strained. He could not speak his mind. He still felt unworthy and inferior because he was just an adopted son who owed this family a favour.Saturday was a day off. Mark and Lucas were at their big house. They ate together at the dining table, accompanied by Lisa, who wore heavy make-up to attract Mark's attention. But it didn't change anything. It seemed that no matter how hard Lisa tried, Mark still wouldn't see her as the grown-up girl.“Brother,” Lisa called out, causing them to turn their heads together. However, Lisa's eyes on Mark made Lucas continue with his breakfast.“Mark,” Lisa called again, her voice hoarse from yesterday's incident. But once again, Mark did not answer her. The man continued to act indifferent as if he already hated him. That didn't make the stubborn Lisa give up so easily.“Brother Mark!” Lisa shouted, pounding on the table. The intonation of her voice was not that of someone screa

"Oh, I know you. The look on your face says it all." Aileen explained. After all, this wasn't the first time Mark had been like this, and she understood.Mark looked down deeply. "Hmm, what do you think? What am I supposed to do when everything I have is slipping out of my hands?"Aileen paused. "There are many options. One, you can start over. Second, you can keep it. Third, you could be down for a while.""How long?""Depends on your power level."Mark smiled. This girl was brilliant; she could think of anything, read everything and understand it quickly."By the way, what's wrong with you?"Mark leaned back on the garden chair and stared at the white clouds above. He tried to formulate a short sentence to explain his situation."My current dad is not my real dad. They took care of me at the orphanage when I was ten years old. We have a younger sister called Lisa. Because we had always obeyed her wishes for a long time, there was a misunderstanding between her and me." Pause."This

Mark left Howard's house with only a few dollars in cash. Fortunately, it was enough for Mark to rent a cheap inn for at least the next few nights. He couldn't walk any further with his suitcase. Mark turned a deaf ear to Lucas' repeated calls for him when he decided to leave and refuse Lucas' offer. He already didn't care what the man said. Sacrificing his own feelings just for money? Ha, absolutely ridiculous.If Mark's hard work for the Howard family company was not appreciated, then there was no point in staying. He had not been a member of their family from the beginning. Even this time, Mark seemed to be disregarded simply because he didn't share Lisa's feelings. For God's sake, Mark loved Lisa. But this wasn't the kind of affection he felt. Lisa would be his little sister and would never change.Mark would genuinely be someone else in the Howard family. He managed to stay out of Lucas' way, even though he had to give up all his hard work. Sometimes, he wondered if he was missin

"Son of a bitch!"Lucas, who had been harboring so much anger, pulled Mark's collar as soon as he saw his face."This is all because of you, Mark!" Lucas shouted angrily.Mark, who had just arrived in a state of panic and exhaustion, couldn't keep up with Lucas' anger."Stop, Ed! I'm not here to argue with you.""Then let's go outside. Let's fight outside."Mark snorted with hate. He struggled to break Lucas' grip on his collar. Was Lucas not thinking? They were in the hospital's waiting room. Making a scene in the hospital would disturb others."It's all because of you! Lisa's like this because of you!"Mark felt guilty. Of course, he was concerned about Lisa. He knew Lisa loved him dearly, and Mark also tried very hard to make her understand that not everything she wanted in this world would always be within her grasp. Unfortunately, Lisa couldn't accept that fact. Lisa couldn't accept that Mark only thought of her as a sister.Why had Mark's life become such a mess? His brotherhood

“What exactly did Mark see in you?”Aileen's face was being pulled violently. Aileen had to keep following the direction of the pulling so that her neck would not hurt. She don't know how many times she had to do this.“Who are you?”“Stay away from Mark from now on.”Aileen was shocked. “Who are you? How do you know Mark?”“That's not important. I'm just telling you to stay away from Mark. Don't you dare go near him.”Aileen needed help understanding. Who exactly was this person, and what was his relationship with Mark? Why should Aileen stay away from Mark? Why would she be kidnapped just to be warned to stay away from Mark?“Let me go!”“Under the circumstances, you still have the courage to talk, huh?”“What is your relationship with Mark?”The sound of the man's laughter sent shivers down Aileen's spine. Aileen still couldn't make out exactly who had kidnapped her and warned her to stay away from Mark. The blindfold was put on deliberately so that Aileen wouldn't recognize her ab
