Goodbye, My Love

Don’t be stubborn.”

Loraine guffawed mockingly. “You have got to be kidding me, Marco. What makes you a safer choice? Besides, why are you so hell-bent on giving me a ride? If you want to act Like you are a good man, get someone else to be your co-star. I don’t have time for games!”

In the past, he never did anything for her. He dismissed her needs and never stayed at home. The only woman he cared about and moved mountains for was Keely.

Why was he pestering her now that she didn’t want anything to do with him? What a troublesome man!

“I’m acting like a good man? Didn’t you learn anything from what almost happened to you just now?” Marco grunted.

“Universe Group is not a safe place for you to work. It’s bad enough that your superior sexually harassed you. Such a thing would never happen in Bryant Group. My employees are good and morally upright.”

Marco had it in mind to persuade her to quit her job. He planned on arranging a suitable position for her in his company.

But Loraine was livid even before he finished speaking.

How dare he insinuate that her father’s company was bad? Was he doing this to provoke her?

With a sneer, Loraine shook off his hand and said sarcastically, “Are you insinuating that Universe Group is bad? Do you think your company is better than it? The nerve of you, Marco! You used your company’s account for your selfish motives and slung mud on me. But you are here acting all righteous!”

It was actually Marina who did all those things.

Nonetheless, Marco didn’t argue. He blamed himself for not managing his company well enough. Something of that magnitude wouldn’t have happened under his nose if he was stricter. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“I’m sorry about that, Loraine. If you want, I can issue a statement to clarify everything. I promise that such a thing won’t happen again.”

Loraine eyed him. She didn’t believe a word that came out of his mouth.

In her opinion, he was just apologizing because the scandal was affecting the stock price of his company. She also reasoned that he was doing it to protect his lover, Keely.

“Spare me your Lies, Marco. I’ve had it up to here with you and Keely.

Stay out of my life!”

After shouting these words, Loraine walked out without a backward glance.

Marco was shocked by the determination in her eyes.

He froze on the spot. His tongue went dry. He stared at her back in a daze for what seemed Like ages.

Unexpected…

The next morning, Loraine went to work as usual.

She was just settling into her cubicle when Barry came to her. He dumped a pile of documents on her desk with a fake smile.
