We chose to depart at 10 o'clock, and it had just turned noon when we arrived at the villa.
At the door of the villa, I glanced at Marius. He was standing behind me, giving me courage. "Don't be afraid. With me here, you can be confident.”
This sentence was warm and funny.
The corners of my mouth twitched up as I entered the house.
Seeing me, Nicky was stunned for a moment. She obviously did not expect me to come back.
She folded her arms and looked at me domineeringly. "You didn't come back last night. I thought you wouldn't come anymore."
"I see someone is really treating this place as their home, not to mention their shamelessness knows no bounds." Behind me, Marius scolded her.
Hearing the voice, Nicky glanced back. Marius had worn a black suit in order to highlight his imposing demeanor. He looked stalwart, upright, and immaculate.
Nicky's face twisted slightly, and her tone was obviously displeased. "I didn't expect Marius Klein to be so good to you, Wanda. I really don't understand what about you is so attractive."
"Sis Wan is loved by everyone. Not everyone can have this ability. For some people, they can be butt naked in front of me and I’d still treat them like a pig," The words he uttered were those used in the streets. They did not really match his outfit but his character.
Likely because she had never been talked back to like this before, Nicky's face was stained with anger. "Marius Klein, you’d better watch yourself."
"Oh dear, am I going too far? But wouldn’t you know it best? You exemplify it perfectly." Marius smiled while uttering amusing retorts, but it was infuriating to listen when in Nicky’s shoes.
Nicky huffed and glared at me. "Nicky, you brought him back on purpose to anger me, didn't you?"
Shaking my head, I chuckled. "As if I have that much time on my hands. I came back to pack my things."
