A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Chapter 2941-2950

Chapter 2941 It was the distinct scent of a hand cream.

He had bought it himself for Melissa and rubbed it on her hands. He wouldn't mistake the scent for anything else.

Marcus took a deep breath and greedily inhaled the remaining traces.

He took in Lungfuls of air, his feelings slowly cooling until they died down. There was no Longer any burning from hearing her name, and he convinced himself not to look for her.

After what had seemed an eternity, Marcus stepped inside the elevator.

He went downstairs to retrieve his broken phone, absentmindedly looking at the pieces.

There was only one photo of Melissa in it.

(Eagles) ‘s (Eagles) And now even that was gone. He couldn't piece it back to the way it was before.

Above him, a figure stood on the second floor near the corner of the elevator. Melissa stared at Marcus from the shadows.

He had lost a lot of weight.

He seemed different from how he used to be. Somehow, he carried himself with more seriousness, but she felt no fear toward him.

Perhaps her own affection had been the reason why she used to be afraid of him.

But things might be different now.

Lowering her eyes, she placed a hand over her stomach. The baby was an unexpected development.

Despite having taken the pill, she still got pregnant.

‘When Melissa first found out, she hesitated to tell him. She was afraid that if she told Marcus that she had gotten pregnant, he would probably accuse her of pulling a trick to deceive him.

Not once had she forgotten his words.

He said right to her face that she didn't deserve to be his wife.

As if sensing her melancholy, the baby in her womb wriggled around.

Melissa felt the movements and kicks under her palm. A gentle smile curved on her lips. Now that she had a child, she would never be alone again.

She raised her head and took one last look at Marcus.

Melissa bid farewell to him in her heart. “Goodbye, Marcus. We'll never see each other again.” Without going through the prenatal checkup, Melissa quietly entered the elevator and left.

Chapter 2942 Alexis’ postpartum examination went without a hitch. Both she and her child were in perfect health.

When she got into the car, she saw a small bag with a broken phone inside.

Alexis looked down at her baby and cooed. In a gentle voice, she asked, “Marcus, what happened to your phone? Why were you so angry?” “I dropped it. It was an accident,” Marcus replied flatly.

“Accident? That's uncharacteristic of you.” Alexis speculated that his sour mood had something to do with Melissa.

However, it was pretty obvious that he didn't want to talk about it, so she quickly changed the topic. “Are you going back to Livebop soon? Why not just stay for a few more days?” Marcus gripped the steering wheel with his slender fingers.

For a while, he just stared at the rearview mirror with a faint smile. Then he answered, “There's too much going on there. I'm not going to sit through all that.” Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates...

There was nothing else Alexis could say to that.

It had snowed that day, and the road was covered with ice.

Fortunately, Marcus’ driving skills were top-notch.

He changed to another road where there was less snow and the car moved along steadily. When he took a turn, his eyes caught a woman standing with her back to him at a bus stop across the street.

(Eagles) She was just the right height, and her hair was just the right color.

Even from a distance, Marcus could see the curve of the woman's round stomach. She was pregnant.

The woman raised her head to check the bus sign, as if thinking about which bus to take.

She had to be around seven or eight months pregnant. Why was she taking the bus alone on such a snowy day? What was her husband doing? Marcus caught himself in a rare moment of distraction, but he couldn't afford to let his thoughts wander. Alexis and Daniel were in the back seat, and he had to pay attention to the road. He looked away quickly, and the black off-road vehicle brushed past the woman.

At the same moment, she turned around.

It was Melissa.

Once again, the two missed each other.

A bus slowly rolled to a stop in front of her, and Melissa got on.

When she sat down, she saw that she had received a call from Julie, the proprietress of the small diner in Warsew where she once worked.

Chapter 2943 Julie Wilson's husband had lost all his money to gambling, and he was neck-deep in debt. His creditors often came to harass his family, which eventually forced them to close the dinner.

It was only a matter of time before Julie's husband was taken to prison.

Coincidentally, Melissa was currently in a good place, financially.

She worked as a secretary for the Watson Group in Heron.

Last month, she was transferred to the branch on Duefron.

She hesitated about the move at first, but in the end, she agreed.

The Watson Group compensated well. Melissa didn't want to lose such an opportunity because she was being held back by the past.
