Chapter 22 The Purpose Of Coming Back
As soon as Emma finished her words, Cindy's hand that held the coffee cup froze. The pleasure she had been watching the drama turned out to be bitter.
She hadn't squared accounts with her. She couldn't let her go. Especially with Marcus. She would never create opportunities for them.
"Since my parents have promised to take care of you, I'll keep their words and you can live here before you get married! But... "
Before she could finish her sentence, Cindy stopped and turned to look at Marcus with deep meaning.
"Although she lives here, the Luo Family has taken good care of her for so many years. As her fiance, I think it's time for you to pay off? Mr. Marcus, can you afford it? "
"Marcus, it doesn't matter if I don't live here. As long as I stay with you, everything will be okay. "
Hardly had Cindy's voice faded away, Emma said to Marcus eagerly. The implication in her words was quite clear.
Marcus smiled at her. "No matter what, you are the second daughter of the Luo Family. Living together without marriage will be discussed by others. Even if you don't care, I do. As she said, I should make an efforts. These… Is that enough? "
A man in black took over the black card inlaid with gold rims and walked towards the little woman on the sofa.
At the sight of the black card, she brightened her eyes and had a good plan.
He had nothing to say if she stole 100 million!
Cindy jumped off the sofa, grabbed the card from Marcus and smiled slyly.
"Thank you so much."
'I hope I can make him go bankrupt!' thought Cindy!
"Marcus, how..."
Emma's face turned ashen when she found that Marcus had given his black card to Cindy.
"Okay, let it go. I've been here for half a day without a drink of water."
Marcus said, trying to change the subject.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Marcus. I'll let them I'll make you a cup of coffee. "
Emma had planned to ask the servant to do the job. But when she turned around, she realized that she was surrounded by the people of Cindy.
"Emma, you'd better spend more time with Mr. Marcus. I can make coffee for him and I'm familiar with this place. "
At this time, a middle-aged woman's voice sounded. It was Nana who was just pulled by Emma.
She walked to Emma with a smile and winked at her.
The more Emma looked at her, the more annoyed she was, but for the sake of the agreement she had just said, she decided to let it go.
Besides, all the people here were working for Cindy. She needed help.
"Be careful."
Emma warned in a low voice.
"Don't worry!"
"Mr. Marcus, please take a seat. The coffee will be ready soon. "
Nana bowed her head. Then she walked away slowly.
"She is..."
Emma didn't mention the fight to Marcus, so he naturally didn't know that she was her mother.
"She, she She is a distant relative to me. I don't know her... "
Emma's face was telling a lie without nervousness. And then she glanced at the direction where Cindy was. Seeing that Cindy did not expose her, she was a little relieved.
Marcus stayed for a cup of coffee, and even didn't want to leave until noon.
"It's almost lunch time, Marcus. Why don't you stay and have lunch with us?"
The whole morning was a torture for her. However, she had to stay here since she had to clean up her own room.
Emma fed fruit to Marcus and seemed to tell some funny things. She covered her mouth and giggled.
Seeing that man, Cindy grew more outraged.
He actually eat her food! Moreover, he seemed to enjoy it.
Cindy took the fork and inserted the knife into a piece of apple on the plate. When she sent it to her mouth, she glared at the smiling man.
The man curled his lips. "Okay."
As he spoke, he shot a glance in the direction of Cindy, who was standing a few meters away from him.
Seeing him looking at her, Cindy turned her face and snorted.
"Miss, Mr. Bob is looking for you. May I help you..."
Just then, Abbie walked in from outside.
"Bob? Bob? Let him in. " This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Now only he could come to see her.
The moment she finished her words, Cindy jumped from the sofa and ran towards the door, totally ignoring Marcus.
Bob was holding a large bouquet of roses. When he saw Cindy, a bright smile spread over his face.
"Cindy, here you are." He handed the flowers to her.
"Thank you. It smells good!"
She laughed so brightly.
"By the way, Bob, how is your injury? Let me have a look. Much better. You shouldn't hit others so rashly next time. "
"OK, OK, OK. Without your instruction in the future, I will not move even a little."
"Don't be garrulous." Cindy put her fist on his shoulder and they walked into the living room.
When Bob saw Marcus and Emma, the smile on his face faded.
"Hi, Marcus,"
He said coldly, and didn't pay much attention to Emma.
"Hello, Bob. You have heard that my sister has come back? Uh, what's wrong with your face? "
"Cindy, how are you doing here? Tell me if you have anything you need. I'll send someone to bring it to you. By the way, have you cleaned your room? Take me there! "
As if he had no feeling for Emma at all, Bob had put his arm around Cindy's shoulder and gone upstairs before Emma got up.
"Marcus..."
Emma bit her lips and wanted to find comfort from Marcus.
But obviously, her plan failed. Marcus lowered his head and seemed to eat the rest of the fruit in the plate casually.
"Cindy, I saw many bodyguards here when I came in. What happened? Are they yours? "
They went to her room together. They went downstairs when they found that the room wasn't cleaned up.
"Yes. I have told you before that I was rescued. The guy who saved me at that time taught me a lot. This time he hired these bodyguards and servants to protect and serve me."
"Cindy, I have always wanted to ask you. Did you come back this time for Marcus? "
Bob stopped and looked at her seriously.
He thought she wouldn't answer him, but unexpectedly, she nodded.
"Yes, I did that not only to investigate my brother's disappearance, but also For the Luo Group! I can't let it fall into Marcus' hands! "
When he heard her and saw the coldness flashing in her eyes, Bob stiffened and swallowed what he was about to say.
He slightly clenched his hands. "Cindy, that's why you wanted to approach Marcus, right? In order to take the Luo Group back? Or You think Marcus was involved in your brother's missing? "
