Chapter 16 There Is Not a Man She Can’t Have
Penelope replied in confusion, "I don't know either..."
Marco instantly flew into a rage, he glared at her and scolded her, “Then what do you know? You
useless thing, I don’t know why I married you back then!”
Penelope’s eyes turned red at once. She was exhausted from being scolded, but ultimately, she still
chose to lower her head obediently and allowed Marco to scold her.
Once Marco had his say, he turned around and went upstairs. The first thing he did was call Raelyn to
tell her to pay more attention to Eliza so that she would not snatch Tanner away from her.
On the other end of the call, Raelyn turned to look at the scenery outside the window. Her attractive
peach blossom eyes were flowing with emotions, and she said gently, “Don’t worry, Dad. I know what I
am doing.”
Marco was still worried, especially when he recalled how Tanner was looking at Eliza that day. The
expressions in his eyes were not that simple.
"When are you coming back?"
Raelyn flicked back a handful of her black hair that was on her shoulders, and she said elegantly and
lazily, “In around two months.”
Marco frowned and said unhappily, “That long? You have already been abroad for over half a year!”
Raelyn suddenly chuckled, and her soft voice was filled with certainty and confidence. “Dad, don’t
worry. What’s mine will stay mine. No one can take him away from me.”
As for Eliza, who did she think she was?
When Marco heard how confident she was, he finally relaxed a little. He thought of his daughter’s
extremely beautiful temperament. If she had a better figure, there was no man in the entire world she
could not have.
“Okay then.” After hanging up the phone, Marco’s expressions relaxed. Then, at the thought of Eliza
and Michael’s divorce, he suddenly had a headache once more.
What a terrible investment! That d*mned girl ruined his plan! What a curse!
Marco wondered what was wrong with him to have let those two women into his house back then.
……
The sun was slowly setting.
In the Deleon family's old estate.
Lots of delicate dishes were placed on a carved square table made from pearwood.
Two people were sitting at the table. It was a young and handsome man, as well as an older gray-
haired grandmother. They were sitting face to face.
After eating for some time, the old woman spoke, “When are you going abroad to visit Raelyn for me?
She has been staying abroad for half a year, and I am worried about her.”
In Mckenna Deleon’s heart, Raelyn was already Tanner’s wife.
Tanner lowered his head and slowly ate his meal. His expression was indifferent, he did not respond. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Mckenna frowned as her temperament became overbearing. “You little brat, did you hear what I said!”
Tanner took a deep breath. He muttered an indifferent reply, "Alright."
Mckenna was finally satisfied. A moment later, the telephone in the living room rang. A servant
received the call and said to her, "Madam, it is from Miss Raelyn."
Mckenna went to answer the phone.
“Grandma, has anything happened to Tanner recently? I have not been able to get through to his
phone these days,” Raelyn spoke in a soft tone, and there was a hint of worry that seemed to be filled
with sincerity.
After Mckenna heard that, she fell into a rage. “Busy? He is right here eating with me. I will pass him
the phone. Give me a minute.”
She turned around and angrily told Tanner to answer the phone.
Tanner’s slightly drooping eyes were filled with a small trace of coldness, but his grandmother was right
beside him, so he dared not disobey her. He could only press his thin lips lightly together and received
the call.
“Hello.” His greeting was indifferent, it could be considered as a barely passable, polite, and peaceful
greeting.
Raelyn’s fingers, which were already clenching the phone, tightened further, and the calmness on her
face started to crack. With her keen intuition, she was aware that Tanner had started to treat her a little
bit differently from before.
After a little while, Raelyn spoke in a soft tone, “Tanner, I already know what happened between you
and Eliza…”
