“Why not? If you can slap yourself in the face, | see no reason why | can’t.”
Furious, Leland continued, “Don’t you dare cry! | got humiliated because of you. You’re such a disgrace to me!”
Marlowe’s eyes widened. “How did you find out that | slapped myself?” “You underestimated Isaac, you brat.” Leland then asked, “Why did you do that?”
“Because | want that woman gone! Dad, con. You promised to helpbe with Isaac!” Marlowe sobbed. After hearing that, Leland nearly passed out from anger.
“Yes, | also want you to marry him. It’s great that you Like him, but he doesn’t feel the sway. What's the point in me introducing you to him if he doesn’t Like you? Did you get anything other than an apology from that woman after you slapped yourself and blamed her for it? Did you get Isaac’s attention? No, you didn’t. You just made a fool out of yourself, out of us.”
“| thought I'd have a better chance of winning his heart once she’s gone,” Marlowe whispered. Leland’s face darkened.
“So you paid those men to kidnap her?”
“No, | didn’t,” Marlowe denied, shaking her head.

“No! | don’t want to! I’m not going anywhere!” Marlowe protested
“After causing so much trouble, you still don’t want to leave? Are you going to wait until I’m killed before you stop your nonsense?” Leland scolded.
Marlowe let out another sob, successfully irritating him even more.
“You can stay, but you have to apologize to that woman, and you won’t stop until you obtain her forgiveness. Then, you will tell everyone that you slapped yourself because of a man. You'll be everyone’s laughing stock. I’m sure you don’t want that.”
Marlowe grimaced.
She did not want to apologize to Camila at all.
