A Moment in Destiny

She felt so stiff that she couldn't help but move slightly, "Marley? I only love you!"

He did not move. "Just one more minute!"

He seldom showed such feelings to her. He was like a wronged child that asked for comfort. He only wanted to hold her for a while.

When Sylvie could only hear the sound of his breathing, he suddenly let go of her and stood up. "Go to take a rest. I am having a meeting!"

"OK!" She nodded.

He took the documents and left.

Sylvie saw him leave the office. He seemed to be very lonely, a bit fearful, and timid. She didn't know what he was thinking. He was always domineering, so she felt sad when he looked so lonely. Did Marley blame her?

He was still in a meeting at lunchtime.

Sylvie didn't know the meeting topic. She just felt that it last so long.

Sylvie went to the door several times but no one came out. When the meeting was over, Ernie walked out of the meeting room and saw Sylvie. He threw a glance at Sylvie with a straight face and went downstairs.

Then Marley walked out and came over to Sylvie. He said in a gentle voice, "Are you hungry?"

"No!" She shook her head.

"Why are you waiting at the door?" He came up to her, took her hand, and asked softly.

"I'm worried you will be angry with me!" She put it bluntly. She was really worried.

Marley was in a daze for a long time. He raised his eyes and looked at her. He put on a smile, and his beautiful eyes seemed to be shining. "You care about me very much!"

He was thick-skinned enough to say that, but he was true. She did care about him!

"Let's go to have a meal!" He got so close to her that her heart was racing. She subconsciously took a step back.

He added, "I will announce a big decision at home tonight!"

In the afternoon, Marley went to Tyler's office.
