Mario remained silent, and Mrs. King continued, "Your actions are drawing close scrutiny from both the King family and King Group. Didn't you say your marriage was meant to stabilize King Group? Why the change in focus? And about Rex, even though I don't have a complete understanding of the Ward family's position and influence in Hance City, you know it. You should be aware of what takes precedence!!"
Mrs. King felt anxious and worried in her heart. She was afraid that Mario might make regrettable decisions, as it would undermine everything he had worked for.
With concern in her eyes, she gently placed her hand on Mario's arm and said, "Mario, can you listen to me just this once? In the past, I've always followed your decisions, but this time, can you follow mine? Stop entangling yourself with her. You've seen it yourself; she doesn't have any regard for you now. Everything has passed, so let it end here, alright?"
Mario didn't respond to Mrs. King's question. Instead, his gaze became faintly cold as he looked at her. He said, "We've reached the hotel. Get some rest; I won't accompany you upstairs."
"**Mario!!**" Mrs. King looked at his evasive demeanor with great helplessness and unease. She said, "Why must you persist like this?"
Mario's expression turned particularly unpleasant, and his voice, cold as ice, stated, "As I've told you before, once I've made a decision, no one can change it. So, don't say these things again. I don't like hearing them, understand?"
Having uttered these indifferent words, Mario didn't wait for Mrs. King's response. He immediately instructed, "Take my wife upstairs."
This instruction was directed at the secretary driving the car in front. The secretary nodded immediately, got out of the car, and opened the door on Mrs. King's side. He whispered, "Madam, let me take you upstairs."
Mrs. King's mood was exceptionally unpleasant, especially watching Mario act so stubbornly. It was a sign that something significant would happen next.
She let out a cold snort and indifferently said, "No need. I have my own legs."
Having said that, she immediately got out of the car and walked straight into the hotel, heading upstairs.
After watching Mrs. King enter the hotel lobby, the secretary followed suit, getting back into the car. He turned to Mario and asked in a low voice, "Miss King, should I take you back to your residence?"
Since Mario came to Hance City, he had stayed in a hotel for a few days. To make things more convenient, the secretary had rented a luxury apartment for him. Currently, Mario was staying in the apartment. In fact, the apartment could accommodate Mrs. King as well, but Mario was unwilling to live with her.
Mario had been living alone since he moved out of the King family when he started college. After so many years, he had grown accustomed to living by himself.
He didn't respond to the secretary's words, keeping his face stern as he continued to gaze out of the window, lost in thought.
After a considerable amount of time, he finally reacted. He spoke in a detached tone, "Go back."
The secretary nodded and immediately started driving.
Mario's voice continued impassively, "In the next few days, find someone to accompany her. If Sienna invites her, inform me truthfully."
The secretary nodded again, "Understood, I'll follow your instructions."
Without saying another word, Mario maintained his silence as they returned to the apartment.
Mrs. King's arrival in Hance City completely disrupted Sienna's original plans. With Mrs. King around, Sienna often found it hard to avoid running into Mario.
