Goodbye, My Love
Chapter 1069

Conflicti Emoti

Pondering about Marco's involvement in the current situation, Loraine was startled when Marco suddenly called her. It seemed that the two of them shared some sort of mutual telepathy. After saying goodbye to Davy, she picked up Marco's incoming call.

A deep voice travelled through the line.

"Loraine, the internet issue has been taken care of. I apologize for not addressing it promptly as I was trying to draw out a few people. I'm sorry you were subjected to uncalled-for comments."

Remaining nonchalant, Loraine responded, "It's no big deal. I don't bother with online remarks."

"That's reassuring," replied Marco, his voice still hushed.

Choosing her words carefully, she probed, "Marco, were you aware of the alliance between the Cheap and Fine Group and the Solar Company? Had it not been for your push, Davy wouldn't have approached the Sola Company. How certain were you of their agreement?"

Marco, sounding composed, answered, "I simply suggested Davy give it a shot. Doesn't the agreement with the Solar Company please everyone?"

Hastily diverting the conversation, as if afraid she would continue the questioning, he added, "By the way, Loraine, considering our ongoing collaboration, there are a few matters we should iron out if we persist in doing business with the Cheap and Fine Group in the new business district."

Loraine curtly responded, "Fine."

Deep down, she yearned for Marco's honesty. She understood him like no one else.

It was unusual for him to mention the Solar Company out of the blue or encourage Davy without certainty.

Her dissatisfaction wasn't about Marco's ties with the Solar Company, rather it was about her suspicion that he was concealing something.

But since he didn't wish to share, she decided not to pry further.

After all, she had no right to demand explanations for his actions.

Feeling her discontent through her cold tone, Marco's heart fluttered.

It wasn't his intention to keep secrets from Loraine. The Solar Company was his own venture overseas, but due to his status as an illegitimate son of the Bryant family and the complex web of relations within the family, he found it difficult to find the right time to tell Loraine the truth.

Suppressing his thoughts, Marco continued his composed conversation with Loraine. However, immediately after ending the call, he gestured for Carl to come over.

"As for the alliance between the Solar Company and the Cheap and Fine

Group, make sure Loraine doesn't find out about my involvement." He was determined to keep this secret until he found the right moment to reveal the truth. Wearing a mixed expression, Carl nodded and accepted the order.
