A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 773 Bribing Her into Leaving You

Jemima was more sad, weeping bitterly, and his heart sure ached for her. Standing by Marley's side, Sylvie thought Jamima was a perfect match for him!

Sylvie didn't know how to say it. She just reached out and took the check in Marley's hand.

Marley didn't speak. The mood in his dark eyes was changing all the time, which made him look mysterious and sinister at the moment.

Sylvie was beyond dispute, and she didn't want to explain. Looking up, she said indifferently, "I bribed Jemima into leaving you!"

Marley looked at her, who was so calm without a trace of repentance. He was very upset and he was slightly irritated. "Sylvie, is it really you? Why are you so vicious?"

"You are so sure that it's me, and the money is from Mccarthy Group! Who else could it be? Whether it's vicious or insidious, it's already like this!" She said frankly, "I don't want to say anything. Marley, I have nothing to say."

"You..." Marley was shocked by her look. Was it Sylvie? Was it her or Cassius?

Sylvie knew the suspicion in his heart. She closed her eyes powerlessly and said a few words, "I'll go back. Whatever!"

Marley was lost for words, staring at her with sharp eyes.

Sylvie stood up, looked at Jemima, who was also shocked, tears welling up in her eyes. Her long eyelashes were covered with tears, which was beautiful!

Sylvie said with a smile, “Jemima, good play! In fact, you don't need to. Marley is yours. No one can take him away from you!"

"Sylvie, I don't know what you're talking about! I didn't say you gave me the check!" Jemima's tears fell again as she said, “I really don't understand what you're talking about!"

"Then don't! There’s no need to say more. We’re adults, not a three-year-old who is so easy to be fooled!" With that, Sylvie walked by them.

"Stop!" Marley roared.

Sylvie stopped and said slowly, "The truth is what Jemima said. I have no opinion!"

Marley took her hand with one hand and held o Jemima with his other hand. Sylvie looked at him and smiled.

He bent down and pulled her straight. His words, cold as a knife, stabbed into her chest mercilessly. "Is that really you? You broke us apart by any means to marry me?"

"I'm sorry to break you up, but you can make it all together. If you feel you lost anything because of me, we'll divorce immediately. You can be with Jemima! Marley, people have to pay the price, right? Mccarthy Group helped you. You don't lose anything in this marriage! Don't pretend to be a victim here. No one wins!" Sylvie suddenly looked up at him. Her eyes were misty, but in a blink, it seemed to be just a delusion. Her eyes were nothing but perseverance and calm. She bit her teeth and she said in a trembling voice, "Marley, you are handsome, but Ryan is no worse than you! You’re not the only choice of me!"

Hearing the last sentence, Marley put on a dark face, looked at her with anger in his eyes.

"Let go of me!" Sylvie smiled softly. "You should comfort Jemima well. She is in a bad mood now. She seems to be so pitiful. Besides, she helped you out for the sake of Hughes Group, which is very kind of her. She needs your comfort now!"

As Marley heard that, his hand was stiff and his hand holding her wrist made a sharp effort. He didn't expect Sylvie to speak like this.

Sylvie was speechless.

Marley looked at her, unable to believe that his wife broke him and Jemima in such away. She bribed the woman he loved with a check and took the position of his wife.

Finally, the anger in his eyes went out, and he said with a sneer, "I will make it clear. Go back first, and let's take our time to settle the account! I can’t believe you did this for me! I'm mistaken!"

Sylvie sneered with her head hanging, wordless!

He was mistaken?

It was wrong! It was wrong at the beginning!

It was a business marriage but was also her will, but she didn't think things would develop to this step. She just loved him, and once she was satisfied since they had a marriage although it was short! But she did not expect her grandpa would bribe Jemima. What Jemima did was coincidence or intentional? She felt she was intentional!

He let go of her, and she supported her back and walked out of the coffee stand.

Marley took Jemima to her room that day. He needed to know what happened!

"Jemima, tell me, what is the matter with that check?" Marley looked at her and asked in a low voice, "Did Sylvie give you that?"

She remained wordless, staring at him. Tears falling down her cheek, she tried to open her eyes and look at him.

It was like... She tried to analyze him layer by layer from the inside out, or she tried to carve his whole life into her own mind.

"Jemima, say something. Don't cry!" He was a little helpless, but also a bit at a loss. "Tell me that she forced you to break up with me, right?"

"Don't ask, Marley!" Jemima turned her face away, avoiding his question. But Marley was tortured by her sadness. Jemima, however, went to the sofa and sat down.

"I want to know!" Marley insisted.

Jemima wiped her tears and said softly, looking at him with dull eyes, "Marley, you are in love with Sylvie! There's no point in what I say! You can't stand breaking up with her? This is life, which is not up to us!"

"Jemima, I’m asking about the check!" Marley said.

"If you fall in love with Sylvie, there was no point in asking about it!" She spoke in a tone of solemnity.

"Jemima..." Marley really didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that he looked at her with serious eyes, she wept again, “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t cause you trouble. I shouldn't show up again. I could have disappeared, but I can't take the money! In the beginning, it was just a temporary measure. Marley, I wanted to have a baby, but he said that if I had your baby, Hughes Group would not be in danger! I know what Hughes Group means to you!"

Marley's back was stiff as his face sank.

He shook his hand, slowly drew out a cigarette, and lit it.

He took a puff of it, then looked at her, with a touch of incredible shock and a little bit of bitterness in his eyes. “So for me, for Hughes Group's sake, you killed our child? It's not because of the crisis of Hughes Group that you have to leave, do you?"

"I'm sorry!" Jemima's tears fell endlessly. “I regret it! I shouldn't have told you! You should know what kind of person I am.”

He looked at her.

Marley's heart seemed to be taken away. The pain was sharp and painful.

He came close to her. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Bending over, he wiped away the tears from her eyes.

"Jemima, I'm sorry!" His tone was low.

But her tears were endless like broken pearls.

"Marley, we can't go back, right?" She said, looking at him, "You two look like a good match, you know? I'm so jealous! How unwilling I am! We’ve been together for five years, but that I’m not as important as a woman who has been with you for only a few months."

She asked him in a hoarse voice, “We can't go back, can we?"

Her voice was so sad.

Without answering her, he looked at her with deep eyes. After that, he put his hand in her arms, picked her up, and went to her bedroom. Putting her cold little body on the bed, he carefully tucked her in and said, "Have a rest. You are very tired!"

"Marley, don't go! Can I be so selfish? I know I can't go back! Just one night, will you be with me?"

Marley had a sense of suppression in the chests as if he had been knocked hard with a heavyweight, which was so painful. He sat down along the edge of the bed. He took a hard puff to calm down.

In the smoke, his eyes were full of annoyance. How could it be like this?

For the first time, he felt so powerless.

It turned out that everything was a conspiracy. It turned out that Jemima left for his sake.

What he felt guilty about was that he didn't know that Jemima had been breaking up with him because of Hughes Group's crisis and his excessive care and concern for his family! Unexpectedly, it was like this! There was a check he didn't know that was from Mccarthy Group!

What did Sylvie do?

Was she desperate to be with him? But these days, what puzzled him was that Sylvie didn't do anything! The only sure thing was that she really fell in love with him, which was why she went all to help him, but this kind of love was so selfish if she did everything to separate them up! He didn't want to believe that Sylvie did it! However, everything showed that it was her! Who else could it be?

Jemima choked, tears wetting the whole pillowcase. She curled up in bed, trembling, and tears fell down endlessly. Looking at Jemima, Marley was irritable.

"Sorry, Jemima, I didn't know you sacrificed so much for me! In the beginning, what you said was so firm. Turns out that you did it for my good. How could you be so silly?" Marley took a cigarette and said, "Jemima, I'm a real jerk. I'm sorry for you!"

"Marley, don’t say that. I'm sorry!" Jemima choked, lying on the bed, "You know me. I don’t need your apology!"

"Jemima..." Marley sighed with a frown.
