Chapter 3174: Chapter 3174

He saw that Melissa was still lying on the bed, looking like someone that was lost in thought.

He could only guess what was going through her mind.

“What?” Marcus sneered.

“Are you waiting for me to do it? You’re lucky that I don’t have the energy nor am I in the mood.

”

He stubbed out the cigarette before continuing, “Move over to the villa.

There are many rooms there.

If you’re so determined not to get back with me, we can stay in separate rooms.

But whenever you get the urge, I’ll be more than happy to give you a hand.

”

Marcus had said this in a deliberate attempt at provoking Melissa.

When Melissa heard this, she immediately looked up at him.

Seeing her reaction, Marcus was so furious that he lowered his head and bit her on the lip so hard that it bled.

“Sometimes I really wished I could finish you,” he said through gritted teeth.

“But if I do that, I’ll have no one to play with.

”

As he spoke, he stared at her with a piercing gaze.

This made Melissa shiver.

At this point, Marcus got off the bed and said coldly, “Get up.

Let’s go pick up Matthew.

Tomorrow, we’ll go change his name.

This will be my biggest concession, Melissa.

”

“Oh, thank you,” Melissa said, her voice choked with emotion.

“You don’t need to thank me,” Marco replied in a flat tone.

“Matthew is also my child.

”

With that, he got up and went to the living room to wait for Melissa.

As he puffed on his cigarette, he browsed through the news on his phone.

Melissa washed her face and packed her luggage.

Then she left the bedroom to the living room.

By now, Julie had already returned from her walk and was now discussing things with Marcus.

Apparently, she didn’t want to go over to the villa with Melissa.

She loved and cared a lot about Melissa and Matthew, but right now, they had a new life ahead.

Besides, Julie had her own son and daughter-in-law.

So she couldn’t really live with Melissa and her son forever, could she?

Later, Melissa gave Julie the key to her apartment and even told her that Shawn and his family could move in.

Julie thought this was too much of an offer and simply refused to accept the key, but Melissa insisted.

Even as she escorted them downstairs, Julie was still very worried about Melissa and Matthew.

Meanwhile, with tears in her eyes, Melissa got into the car.

Marcus jumped in behind the wheel and then turned to look at her.

“Well, I really didn’t expect you to be so sentimental now, Miss Brown,” he said as he fastened his seat belt.

Melissa was still mad with Marcus after what happened in the bedroom.

But Marcus was also angry with her.

Since she didn’t respond to his question, the two of them remained silent throughout the journey.

By the time they arrived at the Fowler family mansion, they found that Waylen had been waiting for them for quite a long while.
