Chapter 2871 “You... You're the one who hasn't weaned.” Retorting with a reddened face, Melissa pondered the hopelessness of her situation. How had she developed feelings for someone who enjoyed teasing her? A brief moment of contention ensued.

Sealing his words with a ki*s, Marcus instructed, “Rise and shine.

You're heading back to fetch your ID, aren't you?” Pausing, he added, “Give it to me once you have it in hand.” “Why?” Gazing at her momentarily, Marcus Lightly tapped her head, remarking, “silly.” Of course, they would proceed to get married.

Mutual affection and shared intimacy left Marcus with no reason to abstain from marrying this woman.

The wedding, on the other hand, could be deferred.

Confusion clouded Melissa's gaze as she beheld his handsome features.

She had no idea what Marcus was planning for their future.

(Eagles) ‘s (Eagles) Raising his hand, Marcus checked the time on his watch.

Declaring, “I'm heading to the 12th-floor conference center. Your breakfast is set. Take the hotel car after you've eaten. Sylvia will arrange it for you." Marcus prepared to depart.

Facing a temporary separation, Melissa hesitated to let Marcus go.

Tilting her head, she sought a parting ki*s from him.

Initiating such gestures was an uncommon occurrence for her.

Responding with a subtle smile, Marcus leaned down, engaging in a prolonged i's. Finally, in a husky voice, he inquired, “Feeling better?” Melissa blushed.

Certainly, Marcus had pressing matters to attend to, prompting him to leave promptly.

Melissa didn't sleep in.

Rising from bed, she underwent a quick freshening and meticulously applied hand cream, a sense of sweetness enveloping her heart.

Chapter 2872 She was not accustomed to a life of luxury or indulgence.

The idea of wealth had never crossed her mind.

Despite this, she earnestly desired Marcus, yearning for him to be exclusively hers.

Playfully tapping her own face, she couldn't help but feel a sense of audacity, much like Marcus.

Yet on another note, she reveled in joy, contemplating the future she would share with Marcus. Every upcoming day filled her mind. She believed she had found genuine happiness, vowing to treat him with unparalleled devotion.

Amidst her breakfast, the doorbell chimed.

Eagles.

Answering the door, she was met by a waiter holding a parcel box.

“Miss Brown?" Your delivery has arrived.” Accepting the package with a frown, she remarked, “No one should be aware of my presence here.” Could it be a surprise from Marcus? Expressing gratitude to the waiter, she closed the door and eagerly unpacked the box. Revealed within were an old journal and a birth certificate, accompanied by a photograph.

Examining the birth certificate, she was taken aback.

It bore her own name.

In a prolonged trance, Melissa cautiously unfolded the yellowed diary.

The pages were filled with a woman's musings inked in deep blue, chronicling her love affair with a married man and the birth of their child.

The narrative was laden with the woman's agony and torment.

The tale unfolded with the birth of the child, culminating in the woman's tragic demise by her own hand. The newborn, named Melissa Brown, was the sole survivor.

Melissa shut the diary firmly.

Clutching the diary close, she lifted her head and closed her eyes, tears welling within.

It felt like inadvertently unlocking Pandora's box, with no possibility of retracing her steps.

After a prolonged pause, Melissa shifted her attention to the birth certificate and the photograph depicting the woman cradling her.

The woman appeared exceedingly young, likely in her early twenties.

Gently tracing the image of the woman with her fingertips, Melissa seemed to be confronting another facet of herself. Abruptly, a shiver overcame her, and chills ran down her spine.

Why was she bestowed with this revelation?

Chapter 2873 The diary revealed that the married man, bearing the surname Smith, held considerable influence in Duefron.

The revelation unfolded that Melissa's father was none other than the same man as Vanessa's father.

Melissa entered a world devoid of those privileges.

Normalcy in parental relationships eluded Melissa.

The stark truth revealed Melissa as an illegitimate child.

Her mother, entangled with a married man, found herself ensnared in a complicated affair.

The sound of Melissa's phone disrupted the silence.

An involuntary tremor coursed through Melissa's frame as she recognized the caller. After a prolonged pause, she finally picked up the phone. The woman on the other end unleashed a venomous tirade.

“Melissa, forsaking Ryan for riches, you're no different from your wretched mother. Given your heartlessness, I'l be ruthless. Do you know where the man with the surname Smith encountered your mother? A club! Your mother was once just a woman of frivolity, drinking with others to get tips. Does the offspring of such a woman aspire to infiltrate high society?” Melissa continued to listen in silence.

(Eagles) The intricacies of her birth and true lineage held little significance for her.

The sole concern gripping Melissa's heart was the impending loss of Marcus.

The opulence of the Fowler family starkly contrasted with her status as an illegitimate child. How could she stand beside someone Like Marcus? She understood that Ryan's mother’s intent was to see her suffer.
