When There Is Nothing Left But Love novel Chapter 1437

His blatant shift of the conversation topic wouldn’t fool anyone.

Somehow, I felt that his words masked a deeper meaning.

Marcus was the first person I saw when I opened my eyes. Naturally, he was the most familiar person to me.

At this very moment, though, I felt like I didn’t know him at all.

As if sensing my thoughtful gaze on him, Marcus lifted his eyes to mine. His large hand patted me lightly on my elbow. Sounding every bit like the perfect gentleman, he advised, “Don’t force yourself too hard. You’ll gain your memories back eventually. Take your time.”

I answered weakly, “Of course. Since you’re getting off work soon, I’ll wait for you.”

If I go home early, I’m just giving myself more time to imagine nonsensical scenarios in my head. I should use that time to observe Marcus in his daily life instead.

Marcus arranged for his secretary to bring me a cup of coffee before he left for his meeting.

His company adopted an open office concept. Glass walls segregated different areas in the office. From where I was seated, I could observe the situation in the conference room.

Marcus seemed exceptionally commanding in front of his business partners. He had full control over the atmosphere in the conference room. His stance reminded me greatly of Ashton.

Ashton’s already this imposing in daily life. He must be even more striking when it comes to closing business deals.

I paused in the middle of drinking my coffee. Why am I thinking about him again?

I shook myself awake from my stupor as I started observing the decor in the office. I thought it was an impressive feat that Marcus owned all of this at his age, especially since his office was located in the bustling city center.

My thoughts wandered to the crazy Rebecca.

I didn’t manage to question Emery about our relationship thanks to Ashton’s and Gregory’s sudden appearance.

Like Alexander, Rebecca was in showbiz. It shouldn’t be too hard to dig up some information on her.

I pulled out my phone and keyed in “Rebecca Larson” in the search box.

I felt hopeless about the situation. I couldn’t even confirm if I was “Scarlett”; worrying about her enemy was definitely beyond me.

I let out a long sigh as I turned my attention back to Marcus. Acting on my gut, I Googled him instead.

The search results shocked me.

Heir To The White Corporation. The Promising Graduate Returns. Alleged Friction Between Marcus White And Stepmom Sally Fuller. Marcus White Takes Over The Reins After Benjamin White’s Death. Marcus White’s Mother Dies Of Alleged Suicide.

How did he cope with the loss of his parents in such a short time?

His life seemed a lot more tragic than Rebecca’s. Maybe his melancholic behavior was a result of that depressing period in his life.

The articles also reported on his relationship with “Scarlett”.

Six years ago, Marcus had apparently disappeared mysteriously without a trace. When shareholders of the White Corporation begun eyeing an opportunity to take over the company, “Scarlett” had stepped up to help Marcus protect his family business.
