Loraine will be safe under my care. I will make sure she gets home securely. There’s no need for you to


    worry.”


    Loraine was left dumbstruck. She wanted to protest but it was toote.


    She felt a sense of despair as she realized that her family would now believe that she had left the


    cemetery to meet Marco. The situation felt hopeless.


    After Marco’s deration, a brief silence ensued from Rowan, a sign of his surprise.


    Why was Marco with Loraine at this hour? Wasn’t she supposed to be at the cemetery? How did she


    end up with Marco?


    A flurry of questions whirled in Rowan’s mind but he didn’t lose his cool. In a cautious tone, he asked,


    “Marco, why are you apanying


    Lorrie? Where exactly are you two?”


    Marco maintained hisposure, replying casually, “I ran into Loraine at the cemetery while I was


    there to pay my respects.”


    Rowan’s worry intensified at this revtion.

    So, Loraine ran into him at the cemetery, and they were together now?


    Night had fallen. Where were they exactly? Why hadn’t there been any updates?


    Judging by Loraine’s character, Rowan managed to keep his tone steady, masking his anger as he


    asked, “Where are you two?”


    In a panic, Loraine sped Marco’s arm, shaking her head. She couldn’t possibly tell Rowan they were


    at a hospital!


    Marco, a slight twinkle in his eyes, replied nonchntly, “We left the cemetery and decided to grab a


    bite.”


    A silence followed, with Rowan refraining from an immediate response


    This momentary pause engulfed Loraine in a wave of fear.


    Being an army man, Rowan was adept at catching liars!


    She cast a reproachful re at Marco, ming him for answering the call andplicating her


    situation further. But now, Rowan must see through Marco’s words.

    However, Rowan appeared to trust Marco’s words without questioning their whereabouts. He even


    permitted Marco to apany her home


    “Be sure to get Lorrie home safe and sound. If anything happens to her you’ll answer to me!”


    Marco recognized that this was Rowan extending a gesture of eptance to him, tolerating his


    presence due to a shift in perception. Could this be Rowan giving him a chance?


    With a smile, he nodded. “Of course, sir. I’ll make sure Loraine is safe.”


    After ending the call, he handed the phone back to Loraine, amused by her wide-eyed disbelief.
