When he saw Marcus just now, something did seem wrong. They beat him up quite often back when

they were in prison, but the authoritative and frosty presence when Marcus saw him just now took him

by surprise.

He had even gotten married?

Any woman with a sane mind would avoid him like the plague. Who would dare marry him!?

“Keep your guard up when you investigate. Keep it under the radar.” Nicholas lit a cigarette and puffed

a long exhale.

“N, his wife seems close with Ms. Quimby. Do you…”

“Find out about his wife too!” Nicholas’ gaze was ferocious. “Ha, I’d like to know who the girl is and

what they’re trying to do!”

Cordelia prepared a bath for Marcus when they came back home at night, making him take it while she

massaged him from the side of the bathtub.

“You don’t have to.” Marcus smiled softly. “Go to bed. I’ll go after I’m done.”

“I’m not tired!” Cordelia looked at him, her small hands running on him stubbornly.

There was a subtle change in Marcus’ expression. The reason he did not want her to massage him

was that… her strength could barely be considered a massage—it was seduction.

It was as if her slender fingers had magic. Wherever they landed on him, he felt…

Marcus took a deep breath and turned to look at her. Cordelia’s face was pink, sweat pearling at the tip

of her nose. She had some stray hair that got stuck by the side of her face and looked adorable.

He really wanted to pull her into the tub.

Marcus smirked. He was going to catch her wrist when Cordelia’s sentence stopped him.

“Keep your mind out of the gutter. I can’t today.”

Cordelia grinned playfully and continued to massage his arm.

Marcus deflated instantly and slumped by the bathtub, letting her do whatever she pleased.

“Do you only think about this?”

Marcus thought that he was unlike other men. He only thought about this when he was facing Cordelia.

“Hmm… of course not.” Despite what he thought, he ought to put up a front. “Men think about a lot of

things. That’s only a small part of life.”

“A lot of things?” Cordelia looked at him. “Like what? Like how to hurt someone you loved?”

“What do you mean by that?” Marcus was on his guard instantly. He had never done anything to hurt

her!

“I just think Linda’s a poor thing.” Cordelia’s tone went softer. “You saw it today too. That man…

obviously knows her, and she has told me that she had a childhood sweetheart, but they separated due

to some reason. I thought he died back then, not expecting…”

Marcus narrowed his eyes. “He’s Linda’s ex-boyfriend?”

“I guess so.” Cordelia nodded and looked at him in confusion. “Darling, don’t you know him? But why

did the man talk to you like that? Did you have grudges in the past?”

Marcus paused, his gaze darkening.

“It’s a long time ago.” He glossed it over. “I didn’t expect to meet him there either.”

“What happened between you two?”

“I’ll let you know next time.” He forced a smile and patted her head. “It’s been a long day for you too.

Get some rest. I’ll be quick.”

Cordelia placed the towel and clean clothes by the side and obediently left the bathroom.

Marcus grabbed his phone and dialed a number, asking in a hushed voice, “Do you have what I want?”

“I’ve sent the information to your email.”

“Is that man really Nicholas Thompson?”

“Yes,” replied Robert. “If things go as expected, Nicholas will also look into you and even Ms. Cordelia.

I’m afraid that you can’t hide your identity any longer!”
