NovelEnglishMelissa went straight to the point. Did you ask Roger to do it? And That woman Was that also your doing? Marcus continued cooking.
Despite doing housework, he still managed to look elegant. His tone remained even as he answered, Julie was a big help to us. | dont see anything wrong with me giving his son a better job. As for that woman, it was a test of Shawns loyalty to his marriage.
Unfortunately, its clear that he cant resist temptation.
A low chuckle came from Melissa, her anger seeping out to her voice.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWas that really necessary? Do you know how heartbroken Janet is? Marcus hands stopped their movements and he put down the kitchen knife.
His deep eyes turned to Melissa. Then tell me one thing. Has Shawn always been loyal to Janet? Has he never betrayed her even once in all these years they were together? If you can tell me yes, then Ill
apologize.
Melissa knew that Marcus was being unreasonable, but she couldnt find words to refute it.
A brief, tense silence passed, and then Marcus turned on the tap.
Amidst the gurgle of the water, his voice came gently, Besides, Ive made up for it, havent I? | funded Shawns new business. As long as he shows Janet that hes sincere about winning her back, theyll work things out.
Melissa let her weight rest against the counter, staring at him without a word.
After a long while, Marcus turned to look at her and asked softly, Are you mad at me? To be honest, a little bit, Melissa said lightly. No matter how terrible Shawn was, you shouldnt have gotten involved.

He knew what she wanted to say even without asking. Marcus nodded and said, When you left that year, | went to Warsew once And well Anyway, Shawn and | have crossed paths long ago. And | also care about Janet. If Shawn doesnt change and straighten himself out, he would only cause his wife and daughter more pain.
Things worked out well now, dont you think? Think of it Like a business project.
Once you recognize a problem, the most Logical thing would be to eliminate it so that it doesnt get in the way of future developments.
Melissa couldnt argue with his eloquent reasoning.
She thought his words made sense, but something about it sounded a bit off But then again, it was true that Marcus had spent a lot of money on Shawn, and he did care for Yvonne like she was his own She sighed, deciding to let it go for now. Lets eat.
However, Marcus pulled her into his arms and said in a low voice.
Are you still mad?
