Goodbye, My Love

Seeing that Loraine had surrendered, Barr haughtily signed his name on the plan.

His face broke into a triumphant smile. He looked at Loraine’s pretty face and said, “Don’t blame me for being nosy. But a woman’s duty is to stay at home and take good care of her husband and give birth to children. It doesn’t seem right for you to return to work after getting a divorce. You better resign from the job and get married soon. Only living a stable life is ideal for women.”

Loraine clenched her fists when she heard that.

Before Loraine could retort, a cold male voice caught her attention.

“What did you say?”

Marco pushed the door open and walked in.

“Mr. Bryant!” As soon as Barr saw Marco, he flashed a flattering smile.

“Welcome, Mr. Bryant!”

“Answer my question!”

“What? I… I was just kidding.”

Barr’s smug smile vanished, and he soon became flustered.

“Kidding? You just commented on our business partner’s private life. Is this your business ethics?” Marco asked bluntly.

Barr lowered his head. “I said that for her sake. She works hard. It was just a suggestion. I didn’t mean to demean her in any way.”

Loraine sneered and didn’t utter a word.

Barr quickly changed the topic.

“Mr. Bryant, you’re a busy man. You could have asked your subordinate to attend the meeting. I didn’t expect you to show up in person.”

Glancing at him, Marco said, “Bryant Group is the collaborator of this project. As the president of Bryant Group, I should attend the meeting.

Do you have a problem with that?” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Carl stood behind Marco with his mouth shut, not daring to reveal his boss’s true thoughts.

Ever since the project commenced, Marco ordered Carl to keep an eye on

Loraine.

As soon as Marco heard someone was picking on Loraine, he abandoned his work and rushed to the company.

A knowing smile emerged on Carl’s face as Marco used the project as an excuse.
