Chapter 180
She needed some time to catch her breath since she had danced with two men in a row.
A trace of disappointment flitted across Cayson’s eyes, but no one noticed because he concealed it in a split second. He said thoughtfully, “That’s fine. Go ahead and take a rest.”
After Loraine’s departure, the party was a bit dull.
Marco was in a bad mood. He frowned at everyone who tried to strike up a conversation with him. He went to a corner and sulked while downing a glass of champagne.
When Jimmie saw this, he walked over with a glass of wine and clinked glasses with his friend.
“What’s the matter, dude?”
Marco’s eyes were droopy at this time. He was already a little tipsy.
“Jimmie, be honest with me. Do you think I was actually an incompetent husband?”
Jimmie scratched his nose awkwardly. After coming up with the right words, he replied, “Well, not really. I guess you were just too busy at that time, so you didn’t pay attention to your wife. If my memory serves me right, you never treated Loraine badly. You showered her with expensive gifts frequently. You assigned the task to Carl, didn’t you?”
Although Marco wasn’t always by Loraine’s side during their three-year marriage, he assigned his assistant to send Loraine designer clothes, jewelry, bags, and shoes to make up for his absence.
But as far as he could recall, he never saw Loraine wear any designer wears while they were married.
Why didn’t she wear them?
Something didn’t feel right as Marco thought about it. He summoned Carl a few minutes Later.
“Did you deliver all the presents to Loraine while I was married to her?”
Carl’s eyebrows knitted in confusion when he heard that question.
He answered obediently, “Of course. I did all that you asked of me.
Anytime a new designer wear got released, I made sure that they were delivered to her immediately. The last delivery comprised of a Givenchy dress and a set of Cartier jewelry.”
Just as Carl finished speaking, his eyes fell on Marina, who was standing not too far away.
“Eh? That dress… Why is Marina wearing it?”
“What are you talking about?” Marco queried, his eyes narrowed.
Carl took a closer look at Marina. His expression suddenly changed. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“Oh my! I recognize the jewelry too. Everything Miss Bryant has on now… They seem to be the last presents that were delivered to
Loraine. But why is Marina wearing them?”
