“I’m to me for not dismissing Keely. But I promise you, there is no affection for Keely. Apart from you,


    there has never been another woman in my heart.”


    Loraine was taken aback by Marco’s sudden deration of love.


    She found herself recalling Jimmie’s words from before.


    Out of all the potential candidates for marriage, Marco chose her instantly with just one look.


    Had her affection for him been reciprocated all along? Did she hold a special and unique ce in


    Marco’s heart as well?


    But with Keely in the picture, Loraine was uncertain whether to trust his words.


    In a whirlwind of emotions, she felt a pressure in her chest that made it hard to breathe. She found


    herself interrupting Marco, “Enough! No more words!”


    Witnessing the heated exchange, the girl beside them retreated to her bed, not daring to make a peep.

    Marco immediately fell silent,plying with Loraine’s request while maintaining a deep gaze at her.


    As Loraine turned her head, she felt her heart flutter upon encountering such a stare.


    “Loraine, if my presence irritates you, I can stay silent. If I’ma bother, I can remain hidden. Your wish is

    How was he doing this? Each of his actions would almost push her to the edge. Yet, the moment he


    revealed his vulnerability, she would lose all her steam.


    Loraine sighed inwardly. She genuinely didn’t know how to deal with

    Marco.


    When she showed him her mean side, he clung onto her Like a stubborn adhesive; when she showed

    Marco was taken aback. His gaze then drifted to Loraine’s stomach.


    Of course, Loraine noticed where Marco’s attention hadnded. Her cheeks flushed instantly as she


    snapped, “What are you looking at? I’ve had a fever and been on an infusion for a while. Isn’t it normal


    for me to be hungry?”


    Marco stood there, dumbstruck. After a moment, he responded, “Of course, it’s normal.”
