The yellow-haired guy wrapped his arm around me and called out arrogantly, “Who the hell are you? Who are you to mess with me and my girlfriend? Let’s go home now!” He then helped me up and I naturally leaned on his shoulders. I flashed a smile when we brushed past Marlon.
During the day not too long ago, Alicia was holding arms with Marlon, and it was a sight I would never forget. At that single moment, I felt that my heart had been sliced into two, and I was seething with hatred, jealousy. I wanted to tear them apart so bad, but most importantly I wanted to tear my own stupidly loyal heart apart.
Bang!
I suddenly felt that yellow-haired guy gone from my side. I turned around and saw that Marlon was pinning him on the ground, and all the nearby chairs had toppled over too.
Although I didn’t like that yellow-haired guy at all, I still had to make sure the show is complete, so I went over in an attempt to help him up. However, due to the fact that I had emptied two bottles of red wine, the aftereffects were catching up to me. I couldn’t even walk properly, and while I was still staggering, Marlon grabbed me suddenly with enormous strength in his hands. I felt painful as I was rendered immobile by him on the spot.
“I can’t believe you dare to throw me to the ground, you damn bastard!” The yellow-haired guy struggled to get up from the floor, “I will not live up to my name if I don’t beat you to death!” As he declared that, he suddenly rushed towards Marlon.
However, in an instant, he was being kicked back to the floor again by Marlon.
The commotion had attracted the bar manager’s attention. The manager arrived at the scene with a few brawlers by his side as he said unhappily, “What the hell are you doing here? Don’t you know where is this place? How can you cause a ruckus here!” The moment the manager finished his words, he caught a glimpse of Marlon, and he immediately froze on the spot. Then, he changed his attitude and said flatteringly, “Mr. Redford, you are here!”
“You dare to land a kick on me! If I let you escape here unscathed, I would rather hand over my head to you!” The yellow-haired guy exploded with anger as he picked up a chair and was able to rush towards Marlon.
“What the hell, you fucking bastard! You even dare to offend Mr. Redford! Men, drag him out and teach him a lesson!” The manager waved his hand and the several brawlers behind him immediately went into action and surrounded the yellow-haired guy.
“He is Mr. Redford from the Marlon Group?” The yellow-haired guy’s eyes widened incredulously, and the next second, he immediately begged for his life, “Mr. Redford, I...I must be blind since I can’t recognize you. Please spare me this once!”
I couldn’t help but freeze upon hearing his title. He was Mr. Redford from the Marlon Group!
The Marlon Group was the biggest luxury company in all of Asia, and the range of products sold by the group included luxurious cars which were beloved by men; and also fashion articles, shoes, bags which were fancied by women. The reason the Marlon Group had gained such wide-spread fame was not because of the range of luxurious products available underneath its wing, it was because it only took them one year to start from scratch and develop into a huge conglomerate.
Mr. Redford was the president of the Marlon Group. His name was Marlon Redford!
I never would have thought that the man I had been sleeping with for four years was that Marlon Redford of the Marlon Group!
“Mr. Redford, I am really sorry for what has happened to you. In order to calm your nerves, I have prepared a suite for you. You can take a rest anytime!” The manager waved his hand again to signal his men to take the yellow-haired guy away.
Marlon mumbled a response before dragging me towards the elevator.
“Let me go!” I struggled with all my might and recalled that this scene was somewhat familiar compared to that night from four years ago. It was just that I was the one begging Marlon to take me away four years ago compared to me getting dragged by him now.
“Rachael, you better stop moving. Or else, you will regret forever!” Marlon’s voice was very hoarse, and it was the kind of coldness I never experienced from him. I was stunned for a moment and forgot to continue putting up my struggle. Only when Marlon had led me into a room, I almost vomited blood in exasperation. It was the same room as four years ago!
“Marlon, let me go!” Upon seeing such a familiar sight, the alcoholic aftereffects were somehow dissipated slightly.
Bang!
Marlon hurled me onto the bed rudely and then he immediately pounced on me and locked my chin in place. His eyes dark and chilly, “Rachael, are you courting death?”
As the scenes from day time replayed in my mind, I looked into Marlon’s eyes and revealed a smile, “Mr. Redford, I’m doing very well. Why do you think that I’m courting death? Is it because you are going to marry Alicia?” Then, I put on an exaggerated expression of shock and widened my eyes. I laughed mockingly, “Mr. Redford, it’s not that I like you anyone. Whoever you decide to marry with has nothing to do with me at all!”
