House Of The Torres…


    Wesley, usually a master of retorts, found himself speechless in the face of Marco’s solemn demeanor.


    Not one to surrender easily, he squinted and scoffed, “You’re already an ex-husband. Isn’t it a bitte to


    y hero now?”


    Humbled, the usually prideful Marco dipped his head, responding earnestly, “Still, it’s better than sitting


    idle.”


    At Marco’sment, Wesley was at a loss for words. Try as he might, he couldn’t pinpoint a valid


    criticism against Marco.


    Loraine was equally confused.


    Marco’s candidness in front of Rowan and Wesley was unexpected. She had assured Rowan she


    would not repeat past mistakes, yet she could feel her connection with Marco strengthening.


    Her instinct was to flee. Yet her need for Marco’s assistance shackled her. Escape seemed


    impossible…


    Just as Loraine was grappling with her thoughts, Rowan, growing impatient, intervened, “My father


    doesn’t need an army of caretakers.


    Let one person look after him. Stop this needless squabble. ALL of you go home. I’ll stay with him


    tonight.”


    As a respected military figure, Rowan’smand was not to be disobeyed. They exchanged nces


    before obediently nodding their agreement.


    Upon exiting the hospital, Marco immediately offered, “Loraine, let me escort you home.”


    Before Loraine could respond, Wesley eyed Marco with suspicion, warning him, “Marco, you’ve done


    plenty for our family, and we are grateful


    ninjanovel


    But if you have ulterior motives, I’m telling you now, it’s not happening!”


    Marco held his peace. The Torres family’s Love for Loraine was evident.


    They repeated their warnings, attempting to shield their Loved one from any harm.


    Of course, Marco had no intention of leveraging their gratitude to manipte Loraine. However, he


    couldn’t deny his desire to be closer with her and thus didn’t rebuff Wesley’s usations.


    This infuriated Wesley even more. He spun around to face Loraine, a look of outrage stered on his


    face. He seemed to be silently warning her about Marco’s supposed scheming!


    With a nervous cough, Loraine quietly nudged Wesley.


    “Wesley, Marco’s meeting with the Sr Company’s science team is scheduled for tonight.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Shouldn’t we understand what’s going on?”


    Caught off guard, Wesley was visibly distressed.


    He was backed into a corner because they were depending on Marco!
