Chapter 402
Marcus subconsciously opened his arms and wanted to hug her, but her calling his name pulled his reason back in an instant. He looked at her from top to bottom, âDid he bully you?â
Comelia shook her head, âMr. Rivera just invited me to dinner.â
After confirming that she was all right, Marcus whispered, âGo out and wait for me first.â
Cornelia nodded, âOkay.â
When Cornelia walked away, the door closed, and the gentle eyes of Marcus became extremely sharp at the moment of looking at Zavier. If eyes could kill people, then Zavier was already the undead under his eyes.
âMarc, why are you here?â Zavier, like an innocent person, handed a cigarette to Marcus, âI havenât seen you smoking recently. Have you quit?â
Marcus didnât answer it in the night of war, âCornelia doesnât like me smoking.â
Zavier sneered, âShe doesnât even know that she is your wife. Does she care if you smoke?â
âShe doesnât know, but you do. How dare you stop her.â The voice of Marcus suddenly became cold, âZavier, do you think I really wonât do anything to you?â
Zavier lit another cigarette, âWhy would I think like that?â
Marcus said coldly, âIf you dare to do anything to Cornelia in the future, I will let you know what I could do to you.â
Zavier shook his head and sighed, âwell, I didnât realized you liked her that much, that you would even for the sake of a woman, turn against me who have been in friendship for more than ten years. If it werenât for your wifeâs meddling, do you think I would have anything to do with her?â
Marcus didnât understand love, but he understood the truth of being a man, âSkyler is your wife, but she is bent on running away from you. You donât look for problems causing by yourself, but you blame others. You will only push Skyler further and further.â
Zavier looked at Marcus and smiled contemptuously, âOh, a man who has never talked about love and heâs afraid that his wife might recognize him. How could you educate me all high and mighty?â
Marcus ignored him and turned to leave.
âWait a minute. Zavier took out his mobile phone and sent a document to Marcus, âIâll give you a gift. Donât thank me.â When he opened the file, it was an audio. He clicked Play and soon heard the conversation between Zavier and Cornelia.
He heard Zavier say that he wanted to pursue Cornelia, and his whole body was full of rage. He even had the idea of screwing off Zavierâs head.
However, when Cornelia refused Zavier with a forceful voice, his rage was instantly smoothed away. Even his anger for Comelia leaving Paris quietly last night disappeared.
Zavier said with a smile, âCornelia, this girlâs feelings for her husband are quite firm. I tempted her with such a big cake, and she was unmoved.â
