My Destined Lover

However, she had only been at school for two days. There’s no chance of trouble.

Marcus nodded gracefully, “That’s a relief.”

Before leaving, he turned to the instructor and said meaningfully, “If Laura does get into trouble at school, I won’t interfere with your punishments. But if she was framed, it’s not up to me what I’ll do then.” This was an implicit warning to the instructor that the matter had to be handled fairly.

Cold sweat broke out on the instructor’s forehead, and she hurriedly said, “Mr. Brown, I know what you mean. Don’t worry.”

“Okay.”

Marcus and Kevin quickly left the office.

The instructor swallowed and tried her best to look at Mrs. Boote.

“Mr. Boote, you heard those … I … couldn’t help it.”

Mrs. Boote ironically said, “My family donates money to your school every year.”

“I know that!” The instructor said with depression, “I understand all your needs. I will discuss it with the headmaster.”

“Well.” Mrs. Boote pulled Nora’s arm and walked out aggressively. She had thought she could get justice for her daughter, however, she ran into Marcus.

Finally, Laura, who had returned to class to finish her math homework, got the news that Nora had been given a serious demerit by the school.

“She planted you and deserved it!” Lucy raised her fist in indignation.

Laura smiled, “Exactly.”

At that moment, Marcus’ figure suddenly came to her mind.

“You go back to class first. I’ll take care of it.” He said in deep voice that was nonchalant.

Without saying anything more, he helped her solve the trouble …

Laura’s heart suddenly gave birth to a little strange feeling.

…

The night came quietly.

The Taylor family welcomed an “old friend” whom they had not seen for a long time.

“Dad?” Mrs. Taylor jogged incredulously to the foyer and diligently went to get the slippers from the shoe rack, “What are you doing here?”

Her brisk tone revealed her delight, “Why didn’t you say in advance when you came, that’s so unexpected. I was not prepared at all. It’s really …”

“You don’t need to prepare anything for me.” Old Mr. Taylor frowned and quickly avoided the hand handed over by Mrs. Taylor.

“I never acknowledged you as my daughter-in-law anyway.” With that, he bent down and fished out a pair of slippers from the shoe rack.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

The smile froze on Mrs. Taylor’s face. She knew that old Mr. Taylor didn’t like her.

When she married, old Mr. Taylor had said to her husband, “You really want to marry her? I’m telling you, we cannot live in a house!”

After that, he really moved out. Even when Mr. Taylor persuaded him many times, he never came back to take a look. After many years, he suddenly returned without a word, Mrs. Taylor’s heart inevitably gave birth to a hint of fantasy – was he … willing to accept her now?

But now the situation was clear – no.

Mrs. Taylor forced a smile and guided old Mr. Taylor to the living room, “Dad, you came back this time for…?”

“Nothing important.”

The expression on his face slowly softened, “It’s just that I heard my granddaughter came back from the countryside and I came to see her.”
