Ernie looked at him calmly. The calmness on his handsome face was incomparable. There was sharp contrast between the calmness on his face and the indistinct anger on Marley’s face.
Marley spoke each word coldly, “Sylvie is my woman. You have been eyeing my woman since long, don’t you feel sick? Do you like to wear the same clothes as others this much?”
Sylvie was stunned for a moment. Marley’s harsh words made her feel sad.
However, she still stepped forward and explained, “Marley, you misunderstood! Today…”
“Misunderstood?” Marley stretched out his hand and pulled her in front of him.
Sylvie almost staggered into his arms, “Marley!”
He held her waist and leaned close to her lips, his eyes were burning faintly, “Why are you speaking for him? Are you that close with him? Did you really do something to feel sorry towards me?”
Hearing those words from him, Sylvie felt dumbfounded. Did he mean to say that she was not chaste enough for him?
Sylvie was tightly embedded in his embrace. Facing his fierce gaze, she bit her red lips and was unwilling to open her mouth. Since he had already decided that she was not chaste, there was no need for her to explain.
“It’s really ridiculous!” Ernie sneered, “You can’t even protect your own woman and yet you are accusing her! You really don’t deserve this woman!”
Marley snorted coldly, his eyes full of coldness, “Ernie, listen here, don’t think that my Dad is protecting you so that you can do whatever you want! Sylvie gave me her first time! Even if you wanted her, you couldn’t have her first time! She is not a virgin anymore!”
“I never care if she is virgin or not!” Ernie also smiled coldly. “Don’t you feel disgusted calling her that? I regard her as my darling! The most precious treasure!”
“She is my woman! How I talk about her is my problem! It is none of your business!”
Seeing Ernie’s gaze on Sylvie, Marley became more and more annoyed, “Sylvie, you are going back with me!”
Sylvie heard his decision in disbelief and couldn’t help but growl, “Marley, you didn’t even ask what actually happened and just made your mind up like that! Don’t you think it is too much?!”
Marley ignored her completely but his grip on her waist became harder. He responded in a commanding tone, “Let’s go!”
“You can go alone!” Sylvie suddenly pushed him away, “Marley, you go!”
“You…” Marley looked at Sylvie in disbelief.
Sylvie was very calm, “I am going to the hospital with him. He was injured because of me; I have to go with him. What you think in your heart is your own problem. I know I am innocent, God is watching everything! You do as you think!”
Marley was slightly astonished. He looked at Sylvie with a complicated gaze.
“You dare!” Marley yelled in rage.
Sylvie only felt his dangerous aura approaching her. She raised her head to look at him stubbornly, but her heart was already shrouded in a chill, “I… won’t go back with you! Marley, you really disappointed me! Since you don’t believe me, then there is no need for me to say anything!”
“Don’t even think about it!” Marley glared at her even more coldly, “Go back with me, immediately!”
The sheer distrust in his eyes made Sylvie laugh grimly, “Do whatever you want! I won’t go back with you!”
“You really are easy!” Marley roared, then turned around and left.
Sylvie pursed her lips but did not catch up with him. She turned to Ernie and said, “Let’s go to the hospital!”
A touch of complexity flashed in Ernie’s eyes. He shook his head and said in a low voice, “Go back with him, Sylvie! I will go myself!”
Sylvie was slightly astonished when she heard this.
Ernie whispered again, “If you really follow me, he will be even more angry! I know men, go!”
“Ernie, I will take you to the hospital!” She was serious!
“I don’t need your help for this little injury! Go!” He pushed her a bit and yelled towards Marley, “Marley, are you really not afraid of throwing Sylvie to me like this? You won’t regret it? If you really leave like this, I can’t guarantee what will happen tonight!”
Having walked away just ten meters away by now, Marley froze suddenly. After a pause, he turned around and walked back towards them. He grabbed Sylvie by her wrist. Even his hold was very painful but Sylvie didn’t make any noise.
Marley completely ignored her anger and dragged her to the car.
“Ernie, go to the hospital and have it bandaged!” She didn’t forget to shout at Ernie again.
The car shot back to the house beside the sea like an arrow. He dragged her upstairs and pushed her on the bed heavily. Sylvie curled up on the bed with a low cry.
They were the only two in the house.
She stared at him angrily.
“Tell me! What did you do with him?” Marley’s deep eyes were full of anger. He leaned over her body, pressing her body under his, pinched her chin with his fingers and sneered, “I saw with my own eyes. You came out holding his hand, laughing so happily. You even changed your skirt. You are really lewd, even want to hook up with my cousin. It looks like ordinary men can’t satisfy you!”
Sylvie turned her head slightly, her gaze fell on the ceiling, “Marley, am I that ugly in your eyes?”
“Then what do you want me to think when I see you holding hands with him and coming downstairs looking so happy?” He looked at her coldly.

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
