Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2069

Carson could sense that Marina was sizing him up, ready for a bit of friendly competition. He didn't argue, just nodded in agreement. "You're absolutely right!"

Marina ignored his nonchalant attitude and continued, "With such a scandalous revelation, I can't wait to see the downfall of the MacClain family!"

Carson's brows furrowed slightly. "I do feel for Jonah, though. Those are Estelle's biological parents, after all. That blood bond isn't something to overlook."

Marina scoffed coldly. "They sure didn't think about blood bonds when they framed Estelle. People like them don't deserve any mercy!"

He looked at her, his handsome face breaking into a small smile. "I've got to admit, I quite like your decisive nature."

Through this ordeal, Marina had come to see Carson in a new light; he wasn't just another trust fund kid with no substance.

She said candidly, "Once our engagement is off, we can still be friends!"

Carson chuckled softly. "Why are you always on about breaking off the engagement?"

Marina was forthright. "Being friends with someone like you is one thing, but lovers or spouses? That's a whole different ballgame."

Carson was left speechless.

Had he been too stingy in the past? Aside from a code name, he hadn't even given her a real name.

She was in J City too.

Had she come back?
