A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 733 You Still Have Me

He thought, there was nothing wrong if they could keep this for a lifetime!

He looked at her, watched her iron clothes and fold them up. He felt it was so homely and so warm, and this woman belonged to him completely, as long as he was careful enough, she would all belong to him!

It was just that the sudden ring of the phone interrupted the two of them. Sylvie's phone rang from outside, and it surprised both her and Marley. It was already over midnight, who would call at this time. Sylvie saw Marley was at the door, she was a bit surprised, she smiled at him, and ran out to answer the phone. "Yes?"

Marley also followed and saw Sylvie's expression changed. She said to the phone, "I don't know her, it has nothing to do with me, just follow the rules please!"

She hung up the phone angrily, and she sat and was stunned on the couch.

"What wrong?" Marley walked over and asked.

"Nothing!" Sylvie shook her head.

At this time, the phone rang again.

Sylvie looked at the phone and was about to hang up.

"Who's calling you?" Marley grabbed her phone directly, and when he saw the number, it was a strange number without a name.

Sylvie bit her lips but did not answer him. It seemed like she didn't want him to answer the phone.

Marley pressed the answer button, and a male voice rose up, "Hello, Miss Mccarthy, she is your mother no matter what!"

Marley was in a daze and asked directly, "Who is this?"

Hearing the male voice at the other side, the one who was calling seemed to be taken aback, "Oh! Hello, I'm calling from the detention center. Where is Miss Sylvie Mccarthy? We want to talk to her!" "I'm her husband, you can talk to me!" Marley glanced at Sylvie, feeling a bit weird.

"Oh! Hello! This is the case. Miss Sylvie Mccarthy's mother, Sadie Porter, is involved in prostitution and is taken into custody by us. Also she is addicted to drugs again. We would like to ask Sylvie Mccarthy to come over and discuss how to deal with it! Since Sadie has no money to bail herself out..."

Marley frowned as he was listening to those words.

It turned out that Sadie got into trouble. No wonder she hung up directly when she heard the name. What kind of mother was she to make her act like that when she picked up the phone?

"Well, I will go there in person tomorrow morning!" Marley said lightly.

"Alright!" The other side agreed with it.

Sylvie looked at him, her teeth sinking into her lips, and she felt out of breath and her chest was tight. Why other people's mothers were so kind, but her mother was so sad?

Marley hung up the phone and saw Sylvie - her bright eyes were filled with unspeakable sadness, she was like a homeless child, aggrieved, desolate, sad, all of a sudden, and she looked so lost. She was more like a rag doll about to be broken, and her eyes were full of grief and annoyance.

Seeing her like this, Marley's felt a dull throbbing in his heart.

But he said nothing, just stretched out his hand, wrapped her in his arms, and whispered by her ear, "Anyway, she is your mother! We can't choose our parents!"

She panted, like a fish drying up on the shore, and a wry smile emerged from the corner of her mouth, "I don't want to go there! I don't care what she wanted to do! I will never go there."

Since the first time her mother let her go to a hotel to serve someone with her body, she gave up on her. She didn't deserve to be a mother, and she didn't want this kind of mother.

"What?" Marley didn't know what to say, just answered, "I'll go there if you would not!"

She froze and heard him say, "You don't want to see her, I'll help you deal with it. Just remember that I am your husband, your man, I can be someone you could rely on. You are not alone, that's all you need to know!"

Her nose suddenly became sore and she burst into tears. His pajamas were wetted by her tears.

Feeling her tears flowing freely on his chest, he silently tightened his arms.

"I don't want to take care of her stuff. She has never fulfilled the responsibilities of being a mother. Having her beside me or not doesn't really matter to me. The only thing I am thankful for is that she gave birth to me and raised me, but she-" she couldn't keep saying. What mother would push her own daughter on a dead-end road? She even forced her to prostitute. If it wasn't Marley that she had met back then, she was afraid that she would have been in jail now or would have been dead already.

Marley listened quietly, without saying anything.

Sylvie sniffed, reached out her hand and wiped away her tears indiscriminately, and then continued, "You don't know her at all. I don't want to care about her, and I won't care about her. Please don't get involved in this and leave her alone. I would pretend I didn't have a mother."

"Sylvie is a kind-hearted girl from what I understand!" He suddenly whispered, "Don't let some complaints affect who you really are."

Just like himself, he treated her so badly from the beginning only because he was too repulsive of the marriage, but if he didn't marry another wealthy girl, the Hughes family would not be like it today. "Every one of us always has something we can't decide. Life is full of ups and downs with a lot of helplessness in it. Maybe I don't know what it feels like. But Sylvie, I know you are a kind girl! I believe leave your mother alone!"

you wouldn't

She was dumbfounded, buried her face in his chest, and her body trembled, as if trying to suppress all her emotions and not let herself cry, but tears still burst out. "Marley, don't be nice to me! Leave me alone, I don't want you to be nice to me!" She spoke lowly in his arms, choked with sobs in her voice, and said intermittently, "I will treat it seriously, I mean it! No one had treated me well before, Sadie Porter treated me badly, and I don't need it! Only Ryan Babel who treats me well, just like a brother. Then there is my grandfather, but he only treats me well when his son and grandson are gone! He took me back till then. I wouldn't go back to the Mccarthy family, if it weren't for Sadie. Everyone who treats me well wants to get something from me. Only Ryan doesn't. Ok. You tell me to ignore Ryan, but I really can't do it. He is my relative. I'd rather not have a mom. If you can't be nice to me for a lifetime, don't bother to do it at the beginning..."

I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to control my heart, and I was afraid that I would be reluctant to leave you! Marley, please didn't treat me well!

Marley didn't fully understand what she said, and tightened the arms holding her slender body again. "Sylvie, it's my responsibility to take care of you! You are my wife, I want to live with you, who else I would take care of if she was not you. It's ok you can cry in my arm!"

For the first time, he really realized the responsibility of a married man, and he had always been a responsible man. Especially when he wanted to live with her, he made up his mind to be responsible for her and his marriage ever since then. Regardless of the previous rejection or disgust, he hoped that they would forget all of those and start everything.

He didn't know what kind of woman Sylvie's mother was, but at this moment, he felt his heartbroken! He heard that Sadie was a courtesan and she wanted to be daughter in law of the Mccarthy family after giving birth to Sylvie. But the Mccarthy family did not accept Sylvie. Until after the plane crash, Cassius Mccarthy finally remembered that he still had a granddaughter.

She must be very sad, he knew well about the feeling of being used by others. People who were good to her would want something from her, even she thought he was one of them. If there was no capital injection from the Mccarthy family, he...except Ryan! Marley frowned, and he couldn't describe the feeling.

Sylvie buried her face deep in his chest, her tears wetted his chest as well as his heart!

At this moment, his words moved her but also made her hesitant.

At this moment, she was crying like a child, she couldn't stop crying, with her body trembling. She tried hard to suppress her crying. Two small hands gripped his pajamas tightly, crying and whimpering like a wounded little animal.

"Sylvie, good girl! Stop crying!" The low and powerful male voice hovered over her head. After all, he couldn't bear to see her crying. Sadness was not good for her health!

He embraced her in his arms and stroked her lightly. Sylvie was like a wandering ship. After drifting around, she finally found the port to stop. Letting herself be embraced by him and cry without any burden. She cried bitterly in his arms, and her cry was extremely sad in the silent night.

Marley hugged her tightly, her tears brought her temperature fell on him. Unable to see each other's faces, he lowered his head, grabbed her arm with both hands, and kissed her forehead, "It's okay, I'm here, I'll take care of it, and you don't need to worry about anything, just relax."

Such a gentle kiss was like a prince kissing his Cinderella, her tears filled in her eyes, she felt so touched and warm.

Finally, she cried enough, and his chest was totally wet.

He took her to go upstairs, "Go take a shower first, don't think about anything, just sleep!"

Marley said in a deep voice, pushing her to the bathroom.

Sylvie nodded and went into the bathroom.

When the shower was turned on, she didn't want hot water. She needed cold water to wake herself up. She even forgot to take off her clothes before she stood under the shower. The cold water hit her face and it hurt, but she was even soberer.

The bathroom was bright, Sylvie was standing in front of the bathroom and looking at herself in the mirror. Her eyes were red and swollen. When did she cry like this? Why did she lose her mind today? But why he treated her so tenderly? Everything was messed up.

"Sylvie?" he shouted outside.

"Oh!" She replied, only to realize that she didn't take a bathrobe.

"Here is the bathrobe, open the door!" he said at the door.

She was a little embarrassed, took a deep breath, opened a small gap, and he handed the bathrobe over, and she put it on and went out.

Seeing her mood stabilized, Marley said softly, "Go to sleep! Have a good rest!"

"Yeah!" She agreed, obediently took her pajamas and went to the bathroom to change them on, then walked back, wrapped her into the quilt. Marley looked at her, turned off the light, and went to bed silently.

However, he stretched out his hand, hugged her in his arms, and put her head on his arm.

She was a little afraid at first, then he said, "Go ahead and sleep, I am here!"

His arms were so solid, she closed her eyes, but couldn't sleep for a long time.

But she didn't move, and he fell asleep after about half an hour.

Suddenly the wind was blowing strongly at night. The wind blew up and hulled, and it sounded gloomy in the middle of the night.

She didn't know which window in the living room downstairs was left unclosed and had been swinging around, making Sylvie more difficult to sleep. She got up and went out.

He opened his eyes as soon as she got out of bed.

She went downstairs to close the window and then sat on the couch in the living room.

No lights were turned on, only a wall lamp was lit on in the corner, and the light was very dim.000000
