Chapter 1222
Marco, usually indifferent to others except Loraine, failed to notice the nurse’s unusual interest. The girl in the neighboring bed, however, narrowed her eyes, casting a meaningful glance at Loraine.
“Miss, no matter why you and your boyfriend had a falling-out, you need to hold onto him tight. Don’t Let such a great man be snatched away by other women. Look, he’s already caught the attention of a young nurse!
If you continue Like this, what do you think will happen?”
Hearing her words, Marco quickly affirmed his faithfulness, “Loraine, I didn’t even notice what the nurse Looked Like. I…”
Loraine scoffed, “No need to explain. You’ve already been entangled with other women, haven’t you? A few more won’t make any difference to me.”
Taken aback by Loraine’s retort, the girl turned a condemning gaze on
Marco.
Of course, Marco understood that Loraine was referring to Keely, and he felt a growing urgency to explain. However, Loraine simply turned away, pulled the quilt over her head, and refused to listen.
Observing this, the girl seemed to grasp something and burst into laughter. “Miss, aren’t you just jealous?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Loraine suppressed her emotions when she heard a playful taunt from the young girl. Even though she was hidden beneath her cozy blanket,
Loraine couldn’t shake the feeling that Marco’s watchful gaze was fixed on her, unrelenting.
Pulling off her blanket, she responded with a hint of anger in her voice that she couldn’t quite hide.

“I’m not jealous. It’s just that I can’t stand someone who keeps lying to me. I can’t tolerate his presence anymore!”
A melancholic cloud hovered over Loraine as she voiced these sentiments.
She had been Marco’s wife for three years and the only thing she got out of it was a broken heart.
After getting divorce, Marco’s attitude towards her changed drastically from frosty indifference to an increased display of care and concern.
She started to believe in him once more, yet…
With her back turned towards Marco, Loraine held her tear-brimming eyes, bit her lower lip and managed to say, “My Life’s biggest regret is crossing paths with him!”
If she hadn’t developed feelings for him in the past, she wouldn’t have made the foolish decision to marry into the Bryant family, despite her family’s disapproval. Consequently, she could have avoided the subsequent events and wouldn’t be facing such significant troubles at present.
Unbeknownst to Loraine, the man behind her suddenly froze, his complexion draining of color.
Her words felt like a punch to his gut. His attractive face was expressionless, but a profound sadness filled his eyes.
Marco gazed at Loraine’s back, swallowed the lump in his throat and expressed his remorse in a raspy voice, “Loraine, I know I messed up badly. I hurt you, and I don’t expect you to forgive me easily. But could you possibly grant me another chance? Allow me to provide an explanation.”
Loraine’s breathing quickened momentarily. Before she could decide whether to comply or reject his plea, his low, deliberate voice started to fill the room once more.
