Marnie retorted. “We don’t need to get married. Your family doesn’t like me, and you just stand by and
do nothing.”
“If that’s what you wish. Let’s head to the hospital for an abortion,”
Sergio replied calmly, keeping his gaze fixed ahead.
Marnie turned to Sergio in astonishment, struggling to believe what she had just heard. She even
doubted that she had imagined things.
“What did you just say?”
“Since you don’t want to get married, you should go to the hospital right now and have an abortion.”
“I…” Marnie’s face turned pale at his drastic proposal. “When did I say I don’t want to get married?”

“I… I’m just angry! Why didn’t you help me when your mother ignored me?”
“Perhaps I could have spoken for you this time. But I’m busy with my work and often not at home. What
will you do then?”
“Okay… Let’s talk about this later.”
Sergio continued, “You should have known my mother’s attitude before coming with me. I thought you
asked to go with me because you were confident my family would like you, not because you wanted to
be humiliated.”

“You…” Marnie seethed.
She couldn’t fathom Sergio clearly. Sometimes, he would satisfy all her requirements, but other times,
he displayed ruthless indifference.
“Since you’re here to see Sabrina off, focus on that and don’t pay any attention to anything else. Don’t
do anything that you’re not sure of. Just stay calm and don’t let other emotions get to you.
Sometimes, the more you think about it, the more it will bother you.
Others may not care as much as you do.”
Marnie had intended to see Sabrina off. She should have focused on Sabrina. But she ended up
turning her attention to please Claire, and she couldn’t bear the consequences of failure. She was
embarrassed, and she even made a fool of herself.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarnie’s lips curled in annoyance. It was easy for Sergio to say that. He wasn’t in her position and
didn’t understand the difficulty of what she was going through.
“But… I just want your mother to like me. I don’t want to put you in a dilemma,” Marnie insisted.
“Save the exhaustion. If you can’t get along with my parents or my family, let it be. It’s fine,” Sergio
replied in a flat tone.
Marnie glared at Sergio’s unyielding expression, her frustration intensifying.
Marnie was only acquainted with Sabrina in the Blakely family. With Sabrina’s upcoming departure and
Sergio’s words of not bothering to please his family, Sergio could have kicked her away anytime.
Sergio remained composed, seemingly unconcerned about the situation.
