A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Chapter 2881 After her outburst, Melissa was panting, her chest heaving with emotion.

Her heart ached with the words she had just spoken.

She half-expected Marcus to strike her, to turn and then walk away, leaving her behind.

That might be for the best. At least then, he wouldn't be tainted by her.

But Marcus just stared at her, silent and inscrutable.

Melissa stood her ground, her voice barely a whisper. “Yes, I never liked you. It was all a facade. Your affection never moved me. Each time we had sex, I felt nothing, yet I pretended otherwise.

From my first day at the company, I've been deceiving you.

Even my virginity, I saved it, not because it was meaningless, but for a price. I took your watch, worth 20 million dollars. But sadly, you caught on.” Tears hung delicately on her lashes, betraying the pain behind her harsh words.

Marcus approached her slowly, stopping just a step away.

Melissa's reflection blurred against the cold glass window.

Gently, he caressed her face, his voice detached.

The watch slipped into her pocket.

His face pressed close to hers, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

Eagles.

“Since you've sold yourself once, why not do it again? You may not enjoy it, but I do. I've always liked your body.” Melissa shuddered.

Then, standing tall, Marcus commanded coldly, “Go clean yourself and get on the bed!” She felt stripped of the right to refuse.

Willing to do anything to repulse him, even at the cost of her dignity, Melissa remained silent, moving towards the room. But she was halted.

Marcus gripped her arm, his sneer cutting. “Strip here. I want to see how low you can stoop.” “Marcus,” Melissa began, tears threatening to spill again.

He shook off her hand, extracting a cigarette from his pocket.

Lighting it, he inhaled deeply. “Don't call me that. You've lost that right.” Melissa trembled, barely able to stand, yet he showed no mercy, expectantly awaiting her next move.

Chapter 2882 Melissa's voice carried a subdued tone. After an extended pause, she gathered the scattered clothes from the floor, dressing herself one piece at a time.

Her hands trembled even more than when she removed her clothes.

She recognized that their connection had come to an end.

He would soon depart from Warsew, vanishing from her world.

There was a possibility she would never lay eyes on him again for the remainder of her life.

Several minutes later, she completed dressing and approached him slowly. In a hoarse voice, she uttered, “Thank you." Marcus averted his gaze from her.

Adjusting his shirt, he opened the door before she could. Sylvia stood on the other side.

Observing the door opening, Sylvia appeared relieved.

“Mr. Fowler” Exiting the hotel suite, Marcus directed, “We depart at once.

(Eagles) Reschedule the meeting for 3:00 p.m.” Sylvia gave a silent nod.

Observing Melissa, it was unclear what Sylvia intended to convey.

Sylvia, with a career marked by few errors, found herself in a rare blunder this time. Even after Marcus left, she lingered, entering the suite with a sigh.

Sylvia questioned Melissa, “What caused Mr. Fowler to be so upset? He may have a quick temper, but he genuinely cares about you.” Sylvia sensed that Melissa might be hiding something.

Otherwise, how could this situation unfold? Melissa gently shook her head, confessing, “It's me who can't seem to get along with him.” With trembling hands, Melissa presented the watch.

Though she initially wanted to keep it as a memento, its value made her hesitate. Addressing Sylvia, she said, “Please return it to him.

If I hold onto it, I fear he might retaliate.” Sylvia grew even more perplexed.

Eventually, she accepted the watch with a sigh. “If you encounter any challenges in the future, don't hesitate to reach out to me.”

Chapter 2883 Melissa's nose twitched, and she nodded before slowly making her way out.

As she departed, she couldn't resist glancing back at the spot where she had experienced several sweetest days in her life with the man she loved.

The memory of Marcus would remain etched in her heart.

Melissa exited the hotel, feeling lost with no destination in mind.

As she stood there in a daze, a woman emerged from a blue taxi and called out upon spotting Melissa.

Turning around, Melissa recognized Ryan's mother, Merry Jenkins.

Merry, who had also been Melissa's adoptive mother, regarded her with resentment, though she refrained from causing a scene in public.
