Chapter 29 Marlon's Love will Never Belong to Me
Chapter 29 Marlon's Love will Never Belong to Me
I stood and waited. After the receptionist hung up the phone, she glanced at me up and down with
strange gaze. She said coldly,
"Mr. Redford said he would see you!"
"Why, I'm here to about the CH acquisition project!"
I hastened to add.
But the receptionist's attitude got worse and she sneered at me.
"Mr. Redford said he doesn’t want to see you, so get out of here!"
Marlon had a bad temper and left unpleasantly last night. How could he be willing to see me now? But I
can't leave!
"I'll just wait here!"
I smiled at the receptionist.
But she looked at me with a condescending look.
"What kind of place do you think Marlon Group is? Get out!
If you refuse to get out, I'll ask the security to kick you out!"
I smiled bitterly and could only go out and wait. As long as I waited at the gate, I could see Marlon.
Thinking of this, I was in a much better mood. The sun in the summer made me sweaty all over the
body. Besides I was covered with injuries, with sweat on, I felt painful.
"Come on, Rachael!"
I smiled to myself.
I had been waiting at the gate. At noon the employees of Marlon Group came out to eat lunch. When I
was thinking whether Marlon would go out for lunch, I saw Alicia holding Marlon's arm, came out talking
and laughing, looking intimate.
There was a moment, I almost fell to the ground, but then I smiled. Alicia and Marlon was a couple and
I had known about it. Why was I surprised and sad?
"Sister!"
When Alicia saw me, her eyes widened in surprise
"Ignore the irrelevant people!"
When Alicia was about to come up to take my hand affectionately, Marlon coldly said. Alicia with her
charming eyes looked at me. She seemed to dare not refute Marlon's words, so she could only follow
him.
I lowered my head and smiled softly and proceeded to follow them, because the acquisition of CH was
definitely something that had to be talked about, but it just had to be the right time.
The sun shone hotly on the head. Sweat like rain covered my face and the entire body. Many of the
body's still unhealed wounds stained with salty sweat that I could not help but frown. Alicia leaned on
Marlon, as if they were born to be a perfect match.
My eyes were stung by the image in front of me, painful yet sore. I lowered my head and looked at my
feet, but the sound of Alicia’s laughter reached my ears clearly.
She laughed happily.
Marlon took Alicia to an upscale Japanese restaurant, I couldn't go in with it, so I could only stand
outside the restaurant. The waiters standing there looked at me with contempt and strange eyes, I just
ignored it.
A burst of fragrance came out from inside. I was hungry, but I did not dare to leave, in case they left.
I occasionally looked up just in time to see Marlon tenderly took a piece of salmon to Alicia, and Alicia
smiled sweetly at Marlon.
I smiled, scrambling to keep my head down.
I didn't know exactly how long I waited, it just felt like every second was incredibly long. Finally Marlon
and Alicia finished eating and came out, and I continued to follow behind them looking for opportunities.
"What's wrong?"
After coming out from the restaurant, Alicia was a bit quiet, and Marlon asked with concern. Alicia
shook her head and held her right ring finger tightly. Marlon petted Alicia's head.
"Give up the soiled ring, let's buy a new one!"
My feet stopped abruptly, the soiled ring?
A ring that I touched was a soiled ring?
I raised my head and looked at Marlon.
"Really?"
Alicia's eyes widened and she looked at Marlon like a child.
"Of course, you're so wonderful, of course you should have the best of everything!"
Marlon stroked Alicia's head again, as if I didn't exist from the beginning to the end.
It hurt. The pen in my pocket seemed to be stabbing me like a dagger. I clenched my fists in a death
grip and could only take back my eyes and continued to follow them to the jewelry store.
"Hello, Mr. Redford!"
As soon as the clerks in the jewelry store saw Marlon, all twenty or so of them bowed respectfully, and
then said to Alicia.
"Hello, Miss Alicia!"
But when they saw me, they all frowned in unison, but because I came in right after Marlon, they didn't
dare to kick me out.
"Mr. Redford, what kind of ring do you want this time?"
The clerks enthusiastically came forward to serve, while the other in the shop looked at Alicia with
envious eyes and whispered.
"Miss Alicia is really lucky to have such a handsome and rich boyfriend like Mr. Redford. If I could be
like her, I would be willing to die for him!"
"Yes, he brings Miss Alicia to buy a ring again!"
I stopped my pace, suddenly not daring to go up closer to Marlon. What they said was true. Alicia was
happy and lucky.
And me?
"Which one do you like?"
Marlon said.
"Marlon, you're so good to me!"
Alicia smiled at Marlon, looking naive. But it hurt my eyes, so I walked out of the store and waited
outside.
I always thought I was tough as nails, but I still get hurt like hell!
The two came out only after Alicia had selected for about twenty minutes. When they came out, Alicia's
face was full of smiles. When she walked past me, she raised her head and shook her hair, and the
shiny ring like light pierced straight into my eyes.
I could only bow my head and smile!
"Marlon, I'm going back to school then!"
When they were at the gate of the company, Alicia said reluctantly.
"Let me know when you get there!"
Marlon said gently.
Alicia nodded, and then said to me. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
"Sister, I'm leaving. If you are short of money, please let me know. We are close sisters, I will help you!"
I held back my nausea let Alicia finish her sentence before sending her off with a heavy sigh of relief.
"Mr. Redford, please wait!"
As soon as Alicia left, Marlon turned to enter the company, and I took a step to stop in front of
him.
