Taking a deep breath, Doris forced a grin and lightly joked,


    “Misconceptions? Did someone see the photo and misinterpret you? Marco, what’s going on with you?


    Have you fallen for someone? Would you share?”


    Agai


    Marco paused upon hearing this. Emotions were indeed a struggle for him.


    His rtionship with Loraine was turbulent. They’d make progress, only to end up back in a dead end.

    Doris, being a woman herself, could perhaps understand the intricate weave of Loraine’s thoughts. He


    contemted revealing his problem to her, maybe she could offer some advice?


    However, he decided to remain quiet.


    He had be wiser from his past experiences. Doris was not just any woman; she had confessed


    her love for him. With an ongoing misunderstanding with Loraine regarding Keely, any further


    complications could make things even more convoluted.


    Doris had been waiting for Marco to say something. When he remained silent, she couldn’t help but


    push him, “Marco, aren’t we friends?


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Can’t you share this with me?”


    He said indifferently, “I can handle this myself. Don’t worry. I’d prefer you not to surprise me like this


    anymore.”


    Doris had expected him to at Least talk about Loraine. Instead, she was met with a frosty response.


    Did this mean he no Longer considered her a friend?


    Struggling to maintain herposure, she clenched her teeth and mustered a smile. She said,


    “Understood.”


    After ending the call, Doris gazed at the nk screen, her mood darkening.


    She couldn’t help but smirk. At Least the photo album she had sent him had made an impact.


    Her intentions were clear, she wanted to show Loraine that she, Doris, was the one who could stand by


    Marco’s side, be it in the past, present, or future!


    In his office at the Bryant Group, Marco was growing increasingly irritable as he Looked at the album.


    He carelessly shoved it under a stack of papers. After some thought, he called for Carl.


    “Keep a close eye on Sr Company. Inform me immediately if something happens.”


    Although the album was a minor issue, Doris’ involvement in his affairs was increasing. He didn’t


    appreciate this change.


    He trusted Doris, but he wouldn’t let her overstep her boundaries.


    “Understood, Mr. Bryant.” Carl acknowledged gravely, aware of the implications. As he was about to


    leave, Marco stopped him.


    “Hold on… Arrange for someone topile a report on the airport design and bring it to me.”


    Carl was taken aback. He was puzzled as to why Marco would be interested in such a mundane task.


    Then it hit him: It must have something to do with Loraine. He smiled, understanding the situation, and


    reassured, “Mr. Bryant, rest assured. I’ll have it prepared immediately!”
