Chapter 38



“Who are you looking for?” asked Marcus.

“I don’t know that person, either,” replied C**ic.

Marcus looked at her sideways and asked, “You don’t know the person you’re looking for?”

“Please focus on driving, old man. Stop paying attention to young people’s social activities,” replied Cassie.

Marcus was stunned for a second and then smiled. “Old man I’m only a few years older than you.”

Cassie curled her lips, looking like a bad girl who was difficult to get along with.

Marcus didn’t say anything more. He drove to the garage of the club and called someone to deal with Cassie’s broken car on the way.

It was raining heavily outside. Cassie called Anne as she agreed.

After that, C**ic looked at the rain outside.

It was time to get off work, so there was a heavy traffic jam in the central area and they moved forward really slowly,

In the closed space, Cassie could smell the light smell of tobacco from Marcus’ body. It made her a little absent-minded.

Have you seen the gift I gave you?” asked Marcus.

Cassie glanced at Marcus, hesitated for a second, and nodded. “Yes, it’s beautiful.”

“Why don’t you wear it?” Marcus continued to ask.

“I receive a lot of gifts every day. How can I wear every one? I’m not a stall owner, replied Cassie.

She said as she stared at the phone carelessly.

Marcus glanced at her. The light in the car was dim, and his expression was somewhat obscure,

Cassie sighed with regret in her mind.

After all, she was still afraid. Even though she knew that Marcus could do everything for her, she was still afraid of those unknown dangers. She was afraid that everything would be out of her control, and that her family, which she had gone through a lot to regain, would disappear again because of her decision

“About your cousin…” Just then, Marcus suddenly changed the topic and mentioned Julia.

Cassie’s hand paused and then she looked at Marcus.

Cassie thought, ‘Marcus is very smart. That day in the back alley of the bar, he clearly heard Julia’s scream and saw my subconscious obstruction. He would definitely doubt something

Ldid it.” Cassie’s tone turned colder, and she answered without fear.

She thought, ‘If Marcus likes me, he must like the gentle and obedient girl in the past, not this cruel and merciless one.

Tcan’t hide it from him, anyway. So I’d better tell him directly.

I should let him see clearly what kind of person I am.”

“Why?” There was a heavy traffic jam in front of them, and the cars’ red tail lights shone on their faces.

“She wanted to hurt me, but I found it and returned it to her. Can’t I do that?” s

?” said Ca**c.

Marcus frowned. He had a strong aura, so when he showed a little bit of emotion, he would easily make people scared.

“Of course you can. You can even erase her if you want,” said Marcus word by word,

Cassie’s heart s**ed a beat. She thought, ‘Did he mean that he wanted to lay hands on Julia?

‘No way. I’m not showing mercy on Julia.

‘But if Marcus disposes of Julia for me, the connection between us will be stronger.

“Besides, I didn’t plan to let Julia die so easily.

Otherwise, I suffered six years for nothing in my previous life.

“That’s too boring Cassie raised her eyebrows and shrugged, and her tone was a little cold. Just keep her and have more fun with her. Mr. Anderson, please stay out of my business and pay more attention to yourself. After all, you have more danger around you than me.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“You’re very different from the rumor, Ms. Murphy, Marcus said slowly.

Marcus thought. It’s more than that. She seems to have become a totally different person.

“The rumor also says that Marcus Anderson is a monster. Are you?” Cassie asked slowly, with her hands on her knees and her chin on her palms.

“Hard to say,” Marcus put one hand on the steering wheel and slightly leaned toward Cassie. “Since you know that the rumor says that I’m a monster, why don’t you seem to be afraid of me, Ms. Murphy?”

When Marcus suddenly approached her, Cassie felt as if she had accidentally met his extremely beautiful eyes.

Her mind went blank for a moment. She even forgot to dodge.

Then they looked into each other’s eyes.

The faint smile on Marcus’s face gradually disappeared.

After a while, a car behind them h**d

Cassie finally came back to her senses and sat straight at once. Then she raised her chin and said, “The road is ready”

Marcus slightly raised his eyebrows and sat straight again. Then he started the car and drove forward as if nothing had happened just now.

The atmosphere in the car became a little strange.

Although the air conditioner was on, Cassie still felt hot

Fortunately, at this moment, her phone suddenly rang, pulling her attention away from Marcus in an instant.

“We’ve arrived.” Cassie looked out and saw a silver sports car driving out of the opposite lane.

She quickly took a photo with her phone.

“What’s wrong?” Marcus asked in confusion

Cassie seemed to be happier than just now. She looked at the photo on her phone and licked her canine tooth. “I was playing a game with someone, and now I win!”

“A game?” Marcus was confused.

Yes. Cassie nodded. “Marcus, let me treat you to dinner”

Seeing that Cassie was so happy, Marcus also smiled and said, “Okay, what do you want to eat?”

Tm treating you to dinner. It’s up to you, of course.” Cassie tilted her head and looked at Marcus. “But I’ll make it clear first. I’ll only treat you to dinner, and there won’t be many kinds of ladies with you.”

Marcus smiled even more happily

After saying that, Cassie realized that she had been too c**y. She thought, Why did I bring that up in front of Marcus? It sounded as if I really minded those ladies’

“It’s fine. I’m already grateful that Ms. Murphy would like to have dinner with me,” said Marcus.

Cassie was speechless. She suddenly regretted it.

“What on earth do you want to eat?!” Cassie g

got angry with embarrassment.

Marcus really liked her being lively in front of him. She was just like a bad-tempered kitten, who got angry from time to time and was very cute.

I don’t have any favorite. Just take me to eat whatever you like,” replied Marcus.

Cassie was stunned for a second. She thought for a moment and felt that if it was someone else, it might be a formality, but if it was Marcus, he probably meant it. He lived in danger all the time. It made sense that he had no mood thinking about his favorite.

“Alright,” replied Cassie. “Drive toward my home. There is a small restaurant on the way that is really good.”

Cassie had gone there when she was very young. It was one of the few cheap foods she had eaten.

“Okay.” Marcus didn’t know what kind of food that restaurant sold, but he was willing to try it.

the way, Cassie turned on the computer, quickly connected the other flash drive she had prepared, and implanted the sports car photo she had just taken into an IP address. Then she turned off the computer with a sigh of relief.

Marcus saw everything, but he didn’t ask.

Cassie also had no intention to explain it to him.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at that restaurant.

Although it was raining, there were many guests in the restaurant. Sitting in the car, Cassie looked-inside the restaurant and said hesitantly, “There are many people in there. Are you okay with that?”

“Am I too ashamed to meet other people? Marcus stopped the car, unfastened the seat belt, and was ready to get out of the

“Better not. My face has appeared in the media for many times. If someone recognizes me, takes a photo, and posts it online, I will have another scandal object.” Cassie pressed on Marcus’ hand which was about to open the door.

Marcus looked at Cassie’s hand on his wrist.

Her hand was soft and warm.

“Wait here. I’ll go get takeout Cassie thought for a while, unfastened her seat belt, opened the door, and went straight to

restaurant.

to the

This restaurant also sold many other delicious snacks. Cassie thought that Marcus might not have eaten them before, so she bought a lot.

Cassie carefully put the takeout in the trunk and went back to the passenger seat.

“Aren’t you gonna eat them?” asked Marcus.

Cassie said. “How can we eat in the car? Drive to this address”

Cassie gave Marcus an address.

This was a small apartment she had entrusted an agency to buy after selling a program a few days ago.

She didn’t want her family to know her ability in computer in a short time. After the company was founded, except for the main members, she didn’t want others to know her identity.

So she needed a place to put her equipment and work in the future.

She thought that it was unstable to rent a place, so she decided to buy a small apartment as her secret base.

A dozen minutes later, Cassie entered the room with Marcus.

The apartment had already been decorated. Although she hadn’t been here since she bought it, she had hired a cleaner to clean it up every day, so it was very clean and tidy.

“What’s this place?” asked Marcus.

Cassie said, “It’s none of your business. Let’s have dinner!”

Marcus had never been treated like this since he was a child. Even those hypocritical elders in his family were respectful to him. Only Cassie dared to be so impatient with him. He actually felt quite novel.

Marcus sat down at the table.

Cassie was more greedy than him. She couldn’t wait to unpack the takeout.

“Let me do it. For fear that she might get scalded, Marcus reached out and took the things from her hands.

Sitting opposite him, Cassie thought for a while and asked curiously, “Marcus, who were you hiding from that day in the back alley of the bar?”
