Standing against the door, Melissa watched this scene unfold before her in silence.
She knew that Marcus was doing this on purpose; he just wanted her to see what âhis worldâ was like.
Despite this, she still couldnât stand it.
Tears in her eyes, she turned around and reached for the door knob with trembling hands.
Just as the door swung open, Marcusâ voice came from behind her.
âOnce you walk out that door, donât ever come to me ever again, Melissa.
â
Melissaâs body kept trembling uncontrollably.
She wanted more than anything to whirl around and shout at him to come with her and to not love any other womanâ¦
But she couldnât.
Seeing her hesitate, Marcus sneered.
âHow dare you say that you Like me, or that you deserve me?â
No, it was not like thatâ¦
It really wasnât!
The environment she had been raised in didnât nurture confidence or boldness, and she never
acquired the courage to fight for what she wanted.
And, of course, someone as privileged as Marcus could never comprehend that.
Marcus knew just how beautiful and qualified the girl next to him was.
Moreover, the girlâs family background was also excellent.
Melissa, on the other hand, had nothing.
How could she fight for someone like Marcus?
Melissa stood frozen in place for what felt Like an eternity.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and bolted out the door, hell-bent on escaping Marcusâ world.
She wanted to flee to a remote island, free of Marcusâ perfume and the lipstick stain on his shirtâ¦
As long as she got out of here now, sheâd be fine.
She could always look at him from afarâ¦
The door to the private room was slammed shut behind her.
And the girl that looked like a frightened bunny just now was gone, leaving no trace.
âMarcus, why the hell did you do that?â James asked with a pout.
But before James could get a response, a crystal cup was thrown to the wall beside the door, shattering into a thousand pieces.
The private room fell silent.
No one dared to make a sound.
It was the first time they had seen Marcus go crazy over a woman.
âSorry, I lost my cool for a second.
â Marcus stood up, emotionless.
