Chapter 72
The first floor of the Beverland Hotel was a combination of a disco and a bar. Accompanied by the electric sound, the dance floor was filled with unrestrained souls.
Guests in groups of twos and threes drank at the bar and flirted with the beautiful women they liked. After chatting for a few words and feeling compatible, they walked into the elevator with their arms around each other’s shoulders and went upstairs to get a room
It was the world of adults and was also a country of freedom. There was only one person who was incompatible with the surroundings.
Marc ordered a few glasses of whiskey and drank it alone, feeling glum. There was a strong smell of alcohol on him, but it didn’t show on his face. There was no sign of him getting drunk. The air pressure around him was terribly low.
Every now and then the bartender would glance in Marc’s direction. Marc had almost finished a bottle of Scotch
It wasn’t that there weren’t bosses who came to Beverland Hotel to drink and get drunk, but who was not surrounded by beautiful women or accompanied by drinking buddies! Only the man was alone.
In all fairness, the bartender had never seen a man with such a perfect combination of appearance and temperament. Sitting there and drinking wise, the man looked like an earl in a foreign drama. He was also like a king in ancient times. In short, he was a noble.
Women
Such an outstanding man was a beautiful scenery just by sitting here, which was naturally easy for him to attract the wor
The bartender counted with his fingers. From the time Marc sat there and drank, at least six beauties had come in half an hour. On average, one came every five minutes. However, every one of them came in high spirits and left resentfully,
Mare never raised his eyelids, no matter how the other party tried to provoke him. He only muttered a single word from his throat, “Scram
The bartender shook his head repeatedly and made a bold guess. If the man was not gay, he must have suffered a critical emotional injury.
In fact, people like Mare, who worked and socialized a lot, had developed a biological aversion to alcohol. Apart from work, they rarely touched cigarettes and alcohol, unless they were depressed and needed to drink to drown their sorrows, just like now,
Marc rarely needed to drown his sorrows in alcohol, but he was particularly depressed today. The depression made him feel as if he wouldn’t get through the night if he didn’t have a drink,
Mare was afraid that he couldn’t resist the urge to rush to the Rose Garden and question Pearl, “Who the hell is that man to you?”
He did not believe that Pearl had so many cousins. Even if they were really her cousins, they should avoid arousing suspicion. Marc had never hugged Pearl’s waist or neck. What right did that man with braids have?
“Bang.” The wine glass was thrown heavily on the bar counter. “Pour again” Mare said in a low voice.
The bartender had just poured the wine and was hesitating whether to remind Marc to drink less when a beautiful figure flashed over and said with a smile, “Handsome, be careful to drink so much wine, or you’ll hurt your stomach.”
The woman was wearing a red strapless dress that revealed her beautiful shoulders. Her half–naked back revealed her butterfly bones. Her wavy hair was draped behind her head, making her look charming and loving as she was born with a natural glow. The bartender’s eyes lit up.
“You… you’re Donna Palmer?”
As soon as the bartender shouted, the woman reached out a finger and gently shushed him. She winked at the bartender. “Keep a low profile. I just came back from filming in the mountains. I haven’t been to the city in a long time. I came out to have some fun.”
“Got it, got it” The bartender didn’t see a celebrity for the first time. However, it was the first time he saw an A–list beauty like Donna. He immediately used his specialty to make Donna a cocktail and carefully handed her a small notebook “Can I have your autograph?”
Donna smiled and signed her name for him.
Throughout the entire process, Marc did not even bat an eyelid. He only focused on his drinking
Donna found it more interesting. Ever since she debated, or rather, since her birth, she had never been ignored by a man like this. She tilted her head, took a sip of her cocktail, and asked with interest, “Sir, are you gay?”
Marc frowned and glanced coldly at the woman beside him.
Perhaps because he had drunk too much alcohol, the woman’s appearance was a little blu involuntarily think of the little vixen in the video. Was Pearl here!

Marc’s gaze, which was filled with hostility, sadklenly softened a little. He could not help but raise his hand to touch the woman’s face.
However, just as Marc way about to touch Donna’s cheek, her long curly hair instantly woke Marc up. Pearl’s long hair had been cut short after their

divorce. The woman was not Pearl!
Mare retracted his hand, and his vision gradually regained clarity. In front of him was a charming face that resembled Pearl a line. However, the corners of her eyes were more charming and less heroic than Pearl’s
Donna saw the change in Mare’s expression.
Obviously, the momentary gentleness in Marc’s eyes just now was not because of her, but because he treated Donna as another woman
However, this was not the first time Donna had seen such an expression. In the past, she had seen it countless times on another man’s face. It made her heart crack every time until it was filled with holes and pain. She decided to leave him.
“I look like someone you love, don’t ” asked Donna
A mocking smile appeared on Donna’s charming face. “Why do you men always have to find substitutes for other women?”
“Sorry, I mistook you for someone else.” said Marc.
Marc apologized for his rashness just now. He raised his head and drank the glass of wine before him. He told the bartender. “All the drinks for this lady tonight will be charged to Room 77.
Then Marc nodded slightly and left with his coat.
Donna looked at the man’s departing figure and was a little stunned. Then, she narrowed her eyes.
Was he playing hard to get with her!

Pearl left. Tina’s room and went straight to
to her parents‘ room.
Quentin was kneeling on the futon when she opened the door and entered. Three incense sticks were lit before the portraits, and a small section had been burned
“Why are you still kneeling it’s the thought that counts” said Pearl.
Quentin smiled and said. Thaven’t been back to see Mom for a long time. I kneel a little longer to show my filial piety.”
