Chapter 172
Marcus halted Skr by grabbing the shopping cart. His gaze was fixed on her like a predator
eyeing its prey. “Let me give you a lift.”
“Marc…” The woman’s expression soured as she witnessed Marcus showering attention on Skr.
She felt insecure as Marcus now had his attention on another woman despite promising to spend
the whole day with her. What made it
Orse was that Skr appeared more stunning than her.
Marcus nced at the woman with a dismissive attitude. “You go on ahead.”
Among the people Skr had met at the club, Marcus was the one she liked the least. He was a
yboy. and with his wealth as leverage, Marcus was bound to meet his downfall at the hands of a
woman sooner orter.
Skr suddenly grabbed Marcus‘ arm and applied pressure with her fingertips. “I said, I can handle
this myself.”
After she spoke, Marcus seemed to be electrocuted, his entire body jolting. “Ah!”
He had already suppressed the scream to avoid rming others, but the sudden movement had

startled the woman beside him.
“Marc?” she asked. What was happening? Why did Marcus leap as if he were about to perform a
magic
trick?
By then, Skr had pushed her cart into the elevator leading to the parking lot. It was as if she
wasn’t the one causing Marcus to jump around like a clown.

Marcus gritted his teeth.
He was confident he could win over any woman he set his sights on.

She wasn’t bothered by Marcus‘ many flings, but she couldn’t help feeling a bit uneasy.
“What shopping? Get lost!”

Skr smiled and said, “You’re still a kid in my eyes. That’s why I deliberately chose a motorcycle–
shaped lollipop.”
Caleb forced a mile. “Skr, I’m not a kid anymore. There are plenty of girls wanting to be my
girlfriend.”
“Okay, okay, you’re the patient, you call the shots. The doctor probably won’t let you eat lollipops
now. Save it forter when you’re discharged. Skr persuaded him in a tone as if coaxing a child.
Caleb felt he had a long way to go in pursuing Skr. Though John said he and Skr were
impossible,
Caleb wanted to prove him wrong. He was determined to win Skr over!
After leaving the hospital, Skr drove straight back to Gxy Vi. It was already 2:00 pm when
