Goodbye, My Love
Chapter 1320

If it had been earlier, Marco might have expressed gratitude for

Doris's well-meaning offer.

However, having weathered the most difficult and darkest times with

Loraine's comfort, Doris's words now caused him to furrow his brow.

Was this truly concern between friends?

Doris was clearly trying to gauge his reaction in a rather ambiguous manner!

Marco didn't want to give her false hope, and he flatly responded,

"Doris, while we're friends, we also have a superior-subordinate relationship. I value your abilities, which is why I trust you.

However, I'd appreciate it if you would refrain from prying into my personal Life."

Doris was taken aback, her breathing growing heavier. After a moment, she chuckled Lightly.

"Why so serious? I'm just expressing concern for my boss. A happy boss leads to a happy me, right?"

Marco remained silent, and a tense silence filled the air. Forcing a laugh, Doris conceded, "Since you're doing fine, I won't intrude."

ANGELA's LIBRARY

Across the ocean, Doris ended the call, her red-tipped fingers gripping the phone tightly, her expression somber.

She had always been a patient predator, gradually drawing closer to

Marco without any sense of urgency. But recently, she felt a sense of crisis.

The reason was simple: Marco, once a man oblivious to her subtle hints, now was perceptive enough to detect her intentions and firmly reject her advances.

Doris knew this change was due to Loraine.

"Loraine, you certainly have some skill..."

As she uttered the name with a sinister undertone, Doris's face morphed into a wicked grin. In a resentful whisper, she added, "You're already divorced, so why do you continue to entangle yourself with Marco? Well, don't blame me for the steps I'm about to take."

She had to arrange her return to their home country as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, swiftly removed from the conference room by security, Marina was forcibly put into a vehicle without a chance to voice her disagreement, and taken straight to the Bryant family's residence. During the whole ride, Marina put up a fierce fight, hurling profanities at Loraine and Marco. Upon reaching the Bryants' house, her hair was unkempt and her makeup smeared, giving her a wild appearance.

However, even at home, Marina's rage didn't subside. She yelled defiantly, "How dare you lay hands on me? Just wait till Marco, that illegitimate child, falls from power. You'll pay for this! Don't think you can intimidate me just because Marco and Loraine support you.
