Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 87

"Marlon, do you know I have been worried sick because you left without saying goodbye last night?" Just as I picked up the phone, Alicia's pitiful voice rang out. One would feel sorry for her just by listening to her complaint. "Marlon, I miss you. I have been missing you while you are away. I want to see you. Is that okay?"

I smiled happily. Truth be told, if I had been a man, I would have picked her, too. The words that came out of her mouth were so touching that it could drown the cold stones, let alone a man's heart.

However, Alicia, so what?

I smiled slowly, "Alicia, you guys are so adorable. It has just been a couple of hours, but you sounded like you hadn't seen him for ages!"

As soon as I said that, she shrieked like a riled-up cat, "Where's Marlon? Why it's you?"

I slowly glanced at him. He was still focused on driving, but his handsome face was clouded with anger. I knew I was getting under his skin but did not return the phone to him, and he chose not to snatch it from me. "Marlon is driving, so his hands are full. Alicia, just tell me what you have to say, and I'll pass it on to him!"

The minute I finished speaking, she hung up on me. I waved it at him innocently and said, "Mr. Redford, Alicia seems to miss you very much, but she also sounded a little upset. Shouldn't you apologize to her to cheer her up?"

The car suddenly stopped. He didn't even look at me while saying coldly, "Get out!"

I looked outside the window and realized we were in the middle of the road. Sighing innocently, I protested, "Mr. Redford, you are being petty. I answered your phone out of kindness, but you are asking me to leave!"

He turned his head and stared at me with his inky eyes coldly, saying word by word in a creepy tone, "Rachael, I don't care what games you are playing, because they won't work on me. Plus, I know for a fact that you are a slut through and through!"

I felt a sting in my heart and gave a wry smile. "Games? Why don't I know about them? I promise to inform you if any comes to my mind!" As I said that, I opened the door and got out. Before I could even stand still, the car barreled out of sight.

I sneered at myself, and the smile on my face faded away. Marlon could always find a way to stab me in the heart when I dropped my guard. I was never prepared for the pain that followed. Guilty as charged, I had been too stupid to come up with something to deal with it for so many years.

Back to business, as I had just said, I got nothing up my sleeve. But I made up my mind to guard my dignity no matter what dirty tricks I had to use.

Because it was all I had left!

Then I second guessed myself. Did I still have that, though?

It was quiet, and a breeze suddenly blew through my long hair. I slowly smiled. Even if I didn't have dignity now, I was going to get it back bit by bit. I wanted twice what they had taken away from me.

Alicia, Shania, Marvin... All of the Cornells would pay. Right, and Marlon!

My firm gaze turned cold. Then I noticed where I was. My smile grew. What a coincidence! It was about time for me to pay a visit.

I walked to the hospital before me. I had asked Emmalee to hit on Kaleb. I wondered how it went.
