A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 689

"Well!" Sylvie said bitterly, “Pretend to be in love with each other, no problem!"

For the sake of his father's career, he would rather sacrifice his marriage for Mccarthy Group. For the sake of his father's health, he would rather act with her, just to not excite his father. Marley, was really a filial son!

Sylvie suddenly thought of the pain for Mr Mccarthy who lost his son, daughter-in-law and grandson who died in the air crash. She didn't have much impression of her own father. She was just a left over of her father. If the air crash didn’t happened to him, she would not be able to enter the Mccarthy family all her life. Marley had his parents. He loved his parents deeply. She really envied him!

But how ironic it was that they pretend to be in love with each other. She didn’t think she could find someone that one in her life!

"Thank you! Let's go,” he said, picking up his suit coat. His tone was very flat, but she could hear his sincere gratitude from his voice.

She followed him as she was told. In the closed elevator, there were only two of them.

She stood behind him, carefully glancing at the straight and tall figure, her heart pounding again.

He said softly, "My father is in the hospital now. He wants to see you. He doesn't want me to be unhappy for the company."

"Don’t worry. You will be happy!" She said, "Because we will divorce, and you can find some else. As long as one is hopeful, they have always had the motivation to strive for hope and keep on working hard, and they will be happy," she said.

Marley was shocked by her words. How could she say it so lightly? She was involved, bu she seemed to have nothing to do with it and could see through everything, which confused him.

Sylvie smiled gently and explained, “I think in less than two years, based on your ability, Hughes Group will be thriving. I just hope you don't give up Hughes Group again, which you’ve done once. It turns out that it is unwise for you to give up the position of Hughes Group’s president. If you have been the president Hughes Group, there may not be such a crisis, and of course, our marriage won’t exist."

"How do you know that?" Marley was surprised because Sylvie felt her deep faith in his ability.

"You are capable. Don't doubt yourself!" she said in a positive tone.

She was quiet, her voice was clear and melodious, but it was nice to hear. For a while, neither of them spoke. As the elevator slowly descended, Sylvie fixed her eyes on the digital changes.

Marley seemed to be in meditation, taking a look at Sylvie with curiosity occasionally. She was as calm as ever. Marley didn’t come back to his sense until the elevator opened, and the two people quickly out of the elevator.

Outside the building, a RV was waiting there, and the driver came down and opened the door. Marley let Sylvie get on the car first.

In the hospital.

Sylvie followed Marley into a VIP room. At the door, he looked at her and said, "Just be yourself!"

"Alright!" She was still nervous. After all, it was the first time to see Marley's parents, and his father was still ill.

Marley knocked at the door, and then there was a female voice in it. “Come in.”

After entering the door, Sylvie saw the man, who looked like Marley lying in the bed. On the chair beside the bed, a lady, in her 40s, was beautiful. It was clear that she was a beautiful woman when she was young. But now she looked very haggard. When she saw them entering the door, the woman stood up with a smile.

"Mom!" Marley went up and took his mother and said hello to the man in bed, "Dad, do you feel better?"

"Much better, I suggest to go home directly, but your mother insists staying here for examination first. I am so upset about staying in hospital!" Aiden complained to his son impatiently.

"Mom is right!" Marley said with a smile, which was so indifferent when he was in the company. It could see that his family atmosphere was very good.

Sylvie has been standing behind him, feeling that she was really an outsider. She was moved by the scene!

"Kid, you must be so hard!" said Miriam, looking at Marley's face carefully. “Why are you getting thinner? Didn't you sleep well? Look at the dark circle around your eyes. "

"Mom, I'm fine!" Marley pulled down his mother's hand, and suddenly looked back at Sylvie, who was looking at their family with a smile. He was embarrassed as he forgot to introduce her. He immediately took her to stand in front of the bed. “Dad, mom, this is Sylvie, my wife! Sylvie, my parents!"
