My Destined Lover

At this point, her reaction was a direct admission of guilt. Seeing that the situation could not be controlled, Mrs. Taylor wanted to solve it directly because she was afraid of Marcus’ interference.

“Well… I just recalled that,” Mrs. Taylor gave Marcus an apologetic look. “I asked Jones to buy it. It was intended to poison rats… I don’t know how it got in my dinner. Nothing bad happen, how about just let it go?” Mr. Taylor said to Marcus in a low voice.

Marcus said nothing and looked up to see Laura’s reaction. Mrs. Taylor immediately turned to held Laura’s hands. “Laura, Jones has worked in our family for so many years. I knew she didn’t mean it… Just let it go.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Laura took her hand away from Mrs. Taylor and stepped back. “Mrs. Taylor, you’ve made a mistake. I am the victim. What qualifications do you have to forgive someone who wants to hurt me for me?”

Laura directly made Mrs. Taylor look bad, then she comforted Laura with the threat, “We are going to live together in the future. It’s better not to make things so cruel.”

“That’s my business. You don’t need to worry about it,” Laura glanced at Lily, who had a ghastly pallor, and talked to Marcus. “Marcus, I’m not going to compromise. I want to follow things up.”

This behavior of Laura relying on herself in front of everyone pleased Marcus. He could hardly contain the upturned corners of his mouth. It took a light cough to keep his composure, “then take her away. I believe the police will give us an answer.”

Dylan smiled awkwardly but had nothing to say.

Lily felt not good, and so as Dylan. Waiting for Laura and others to leave, she immediately rushed up to win Dylan back. “I’m sorry… Dylan, I was wrong, “Lily lowered her head slightly, and tears dropped like broken beads. “I trusted Jones too much. But … She’s the one who watched me grow up. I didn’t think she’d do it, I’m sorry…”

“I am sorry for the trouble.”

Beauty in tears, anyone who looks at it will have to feel distressed. Let along Dylan, who always had a crush on Lily. As soon as Lily cried, he put all bad feelings behind him and felt heartbroken.

“It’s okay,” Dylan said. “It’s not your fault. You don’t have to say sorry to me”

“You don’t blame me?”

“Sure.”

…

On the other side, Laura gets into Marcus’s car and started to settle some old scores. “By the way, Marcus, I didn’t ask you. How did you get here in time today?”

Laura’s eyelashes flickered as if they were scratching Marcus’s heart, along with that pair of liquid eyes, which were full of expectation to look at their own… It was charming.

“Of course…” Marcus put on a leisure look and grinned at Laura. “because I missed you.”

Laura chuckled, showing a suspicious expression, “Really?” “Maybe I thought too much about it. I was gonna ask you if you knew the guy who’s been following me around these days.”
