Chapter 366 âContinue.â Lennon left after that.
He came to the golf course today to accompany a friend who had just returned from Italy.
His friendâs name was Frank. Thanks to his help, Lennon was able to secure the Nikolasâ project so quickly.
Menu After walking for a while, Frank, who had been silently following Lennon, immediately changed his expression and said curiously, âLenny, if Iâm not mistaken, isnât she your fiancée? Why does it seem like you two donât know each other?â
Frank immigrated to Italy over a decade ago. He didnât know Mariela, but a few years ago, he had seen a photo of Marie at Lennonâs villa.
Back then, Lennon said he had a crush on the girl in the photo.
Later, Frank went back to attend Lennon and Marielaâs engagement ceremony. He saw that Lennonâs fiancée was the girl he had secretly loved for many years, and he congratulated him on finally fulfilling his wish.
âWe broke up.â
âAh?â Frank exclaimed in shock.âHow did you suddenly break up? Werenât you waiting for over a decade to finally win her over?â
A caddy handed over a golf club.
Lennon took over and swung the golf club, hitting the ball away.âI didnât want her to get involved. She almost lost her life with me.â
Frank understood that Marielaâs sister had been kidnapped before the engagement ceremony. Lennon was seriously injured, and the engagement ceremony had to be canceled. Later, he also found out that it was orchestrated by the Stark familyâs adopted daughter, with Nikolas assisting her behind the scenes.
Since then, Nikolas began to seek revenge on the Stark family.
Frank asked, âDid Nikolas harm her again later?â
Lennonâs gaze turned slightly cold as he faithfully recounted to Frank the incidents of Nikolas hiring someone to kill him and Marie, as well the incident of Deandre being pushed down the stairs.
Frankâs expression changed.âIn America, how dare that lunatic Nikolas use heavy weapons!â
âHe was cleared of suspicion thoroughly, so the police couldnât find anything on him.â
âYou have to be careful. Nikolas can do anything when cornered.â
âI know.â
as Frank sighed and reached out to pat Lennonâs shoulder.âBreaking up was the right thing to do, but itâs tough on both you and her, being in love but unable to be together.â
Lennon lowered his eyes, and waves of emotions surged in his heart.
He thought, âWe love each other but couldnât be together?
âNo.
âIt is only temporary.â
Once he dealt with Nikolas, he would win Marie over again.
Kelton sidled up to Marie and asked, âMs. Logan, do you also like playing golf in your free time?â
Marie moved to the side and distanced herself from Kelton, politely replying, âI know a little, but I donât play often.*
Kelton didnât know about Marieâs family background and thought she was just an ordinary lawyer, relying on a meager monthly income of a few thousand dollars.
A few thousand dollars were nothing in his eyes. It would be gone after just one meal.
