A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 942

Marcel interrupted her again as she was about speak, “Rae, say one more word and I’ll strangle you! I’ll shoot you to death!”

Amid the conversation, he wasn’t sure when a gun got into the grip of his hand, it was equipped only when they had to perform dangerous official duties.

As Rae stared at the pitch-black gun point that was pointed towards her, she was suddenly overwhelmed with sadness. She felt as if nothing else mattered anymore and spoke nonetheless, “Marcel, I’d rather have you beat me to death because there are things that I need to tell you! If we keep going down this road, we’ll end up leaving each other someday, so might as well do it now! I’ll let you do the honour if you’re unsatisfied with what our relationship has become. I’ve let you down, this is all my fault! You don’t even believe me anyway.”

“Who the hell said I don’t believe you anymore!” Marcel yelled, his gun muzzle already pressed against Rae’s forehead. He gave Rae an ice-cold stare and approached her coldly, he then uttered word for word. “You really are capable of making me angry! You think you’re being so smart about this, have you told me anything at all? I don’t care what anyone else says, but what about you? Have you even said anything to me?”

Rae froze in place, her heart felt so tight as she was moved by his words. She was on the verge of breaking down!

Did this mean he still believed her?

Marcel’s gun remained on her forehead, but Rae wasn’t the slightest afraid, she knew he wouldn’t do anything reckless to hurt her. She had put all her faith in Marcel at this moment.

Even though he was furious and pulled his gun out, she had nothing to fear.

Rae lowered her head while she bit her lip, she didn’t dare look at Marcel in the eye, it would make her cry.

“It’s not like that! I just wanted you to know that I never betrayed you, I’m innocent! I think you should be able to tell. I’m not bothered with what others have to say as well, I was just afraid you would’ve listened to them!” Rae explained, sourly.

There was sourness in her tone, her voice muffled as she explained.

Marcel clenched his fists so tightly that his veins were exposed. “What’s with Reuben James?”

“I don’t know how to tell you! Stop questioning me, I’m begging you!” she was already crying when she spoke, her eyes were welled up with tears as they dropped unceasingly, “I need a little bit more time!”

Marcel kept his gun and looked at Rae, his eyes already grown dark. He didn’t try to comfort her, nor did he continue to pressure her with questions. His usual calm composure returned, as if Marcel was a totally different person when he lost control earlier. Without saying a word, he started the car engine and drove forward.

Rae didn’t dare to speak of a word either.

A call came in not too long after, Marcel answered it and said, “I know, inform Reuben’s lawyer that this is a special case, instructions from the higher ups, a problem with the lawyer, come back tomorrow!”

Right after he finished, he hung up the call.

Rae stayed silent, she didn’t know what to say.

Marcel drove her to InterContinental Century City and brought her back.

Before she got down from the car, Rae received a call from Ophelia Grant, “Hey, how are you? Did Marcel punish you?” asked Ophelia over the phone.

Rae felt dizzy after hearing her question, what she said just complicated things even more.

“Yes!” that was all she replied.

“What did he do to you?”

Rae didn’t return her query as Marcel was next to her in the car, “I won’t be joining you for a meal today, maybe next time!” This was all she said.

“That’s fine, you’re with Marcel now, right?”

“Mm hmm!”

“I got it!” Ophelia ended the conversation without saying anything else.

Rae peeked at Marcel who was unexpectedly silent, he still looked as cold as before.

He got out of the car, and she followed suit.

When both made their way back to the apartment, Marcel lit a cigarette and stood at the balcony for a smoke.

Rae avoided going over, as the situation today was really beyond her control.

She poured Marcel a cup of tea and placed it on the table, she then informed, “Have some tea first! I’m going to the bathroom!”

He didn’t respond to her, she took a look at him and stormed off to the bathroom.

Rae noticed how she looked so pale after washing up, not a single hint of blood rush in her face. She felt intimidated and restless, with no sense of security at all, it seemed as if there was a knife that hung above her head every day.

Over at the balcony, Marcel’s phone rang, and1 he picked it up, “Father!” he exclaimed.

The person over the line was Nate Hopkins, Marcel’s father. He asked Marcel, “Are you still going to be a little police officer?”

Marcel paused for a moment, then replied, “Yes, I will!”

“If that’s the case,” Nate continued, “I’m going to get your younger brother back!”

Marcel spoke in a deep voice, “He is not my younger brother, mother only had me as her child, wherever did my brother come from?”

“Marcel, I know you’re angry, but it is an undeniable fact that you have a half-brother!” Nate attempted to explain.

However, Marcel followed coldly, “I don’t have a brother, and I know who you’re talking about. I still stand by my words, I will not take over the company, but I’ll never let anyone else inherit me and my mother’s shares. It’s fine if he’s here, just don’t let me get my hands on all the evidence of his illegal deeds. Or else, you know me, I would kill my kins for the sake of justice!”

“You-” Nate seemed to be infuriated.

Marcel unhurriedly added, “You’d better put the phone down, just in case if I would madden you again, in case I accidentally say something else. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!”

He triggered his father with such words instead of hanging up. Nate had cut the line immediately.

With hazy eyes, Marcel proceeded to smoke at the balcony. He glanced over to where the bathroom was, and Rae was still inside!
