Chapter 637 "You'd really do anything for this little mistake, huh?" Mark's laugh sent shivers down my spine. "Well, I suppose keeping it isn't entirely out of the question." I followed Mark from the cabin to the deck.
As we disembarked, he insisted on holding my hand, and I couldn't break free.
"Mark." I turned towards the voice and saw a man in a purple suit approaching us.
He was pale, but his lips were a striking red.
With his blond curls and blue eyes, he looked like something out of a fairy tale.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Samuel," Mark introduced us.
"So, this is the woman you'd go to the ends of the earth for?" Samuel eyedup and down. "Sure, you're good-looking, but that's about it. Can't figure out why Greg's so into you." Silence fell over us like an awkward night.
Seeing that I didn't respond, Samuel turned his attention back to Mark. “I've arranged a place for her to rest. I need to talk to you about something." Mark sensed something was off. "What's left to discuss?" "I helped you with your escape, and you brought back Jane. Our deal is done." "I'm just passing through. In a few days, I'll leave, and we'll have no reason to keep in touch." Samuel's mood darkened. He wasn't fond of Mark, and it showed.
But he was desperate for Gregory, willing to waste there for his sake.
Still, appearances had to be maintained.
"Even a stopover needs a place. It's not safe to wander around here on your own. Follow me." I didn't want to be left alone with Mark, so I turned to Samuel. “Excuse me, sir, I'm quite hungry. Do you have anything to eat?" If I could stall for time, even just a little.
Samuel, besotted with Gregory, might have seemed naive, but he was groomed from a young age.to take over the Norman family. He wasn't as foolish as smight think.
He could see right through my attempt to delay, waiting for Gregory.
"Of course, we even hired a chef from your country." I forced a small smile. "But I'd love to try slocal dishes. I've heard the beef here is excellent." Samuel seemed resigned. "For fresh beef, we'd need to prepare it specially. I had arranged for dishes from your country, knowing you were coming. If you want beef, it'll take stime." "That's fine, I can wait." Suddenly, Mark pulledclose.
I didn't look at him, focusing instead on Samuel.
Mark forcefully turned my face towards him.
Confronted with his deep eyes, deep as abysses, my heart raced.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What are you doing!" I slapped his hand away, indignant.
It was a cover for my other emotions.
Mark gripped my shoulder tightly, causing a numb pain.
He told Samuel, "You might want Gregory for yourself, but if you'ren thinking of trading my woman for him, you're dreaming." Samuel laughed. "What are you talking about? I'm just using her to lure Gregory to the island. Once he's he's mine to deal with as I please." Hearing this, a chill ran down my spine.
I had hoped to use Samuel to buy stime, guessing he might not want to give Mark andany talone.
I suspected he might have struck a deal with Gregory, ensuring his arrival on the island. But now, hearing Samuel's words, I worried for Gregory's safety.
Yet, there was no way to warn him at the moment.
