Goodbye, My Love
Chapter 1354

A single look from Liza silenced them. She was acutely aware of Marco's capabilities and tactics.

If Marco was prepared to abandon the Bryant Group, she could accept that. The only stipulation was for them to apologize to Loraine, a minor inconvenience. Having issued numerous harsh remarks earlier, she was naturally reluctant.

In the end, Liza measured the pros and cons and opted to swallow her pride. With visible reluctance, she mustered an insincere apology.

"Loraine, events unfolded unexpectedly, involving the Bryant family lineage. I reacted impulsively and uttered some harsh words. I hope you won't hold it against me."

Hearing this, Marco turned his attention to the visibly irked mother-daughter duo.

Initially, Laura and Marina were resistant, but under Liza's intense glare, they begrudgingly capitulated.

"Alright, we're sorry," they mumbled reluctantly.

Loraine was taken aback. She hadn't anticipated that Marco wasn't advocating for his interests but solely seeking vindication for her.

"Marco..."

She began, but before she could finish her sentence, Marco had already taken her hand and was turning to leave. "Let's go."

Loraine glanced at him. "Is it okay to leave just Like this?"

"Yes, it's fine," Marco reassured her. He cast a final look at the

Loraine couldn't help but notice a significant shift in Marco's demeanor. It was as if a burdensome weight had been lifted off his shoulders, the chronic crease of his brow seeming Less pronounced. Suddenly, she found herself believing that the evening's events might not have been entirely unfortunate.

The silence that enveloped them as they walked hand in hand to the parking lot was comfortable rather than awkward. Loraine, who had arrived in haste, had simply flagged down a taxi. Without any hesitation, she trailed behind Marco towards his sleek black Lincoln.

As Marco produced the keys to unlock the car, a hand abruptly barred the door from opening.

The intruder, garbed in a security guard uniform, had a somewhat suspicious look about him. He cast a scornful glance at Marco, affecting an air of regret yet emitting a sarcastic tone.
