In Love, Never Say Never

As they caused quite a commotion, Marcus lost his appetite after taking a few more bites. He looked at me and suggested, “Let’s go and rest for a while. We’ll go to OrbitTech at two in the afternoon.”

Nodding, I stood up with him and subconsciously shot a glance at the woman, who was shrieking in pain as the man hit her.

I could not help but frown. Why is no one stopping them when things are looking so bad?

When the man was about to smash a glass on the woman, she cowered and desperately shielded her head. It seemed like she was used to being beaten up.

Instinctively, I yelled, “Stop it!”

When I regained my senses immediately after, I could not help but feel frustrated at myself. After all, it was not quite appropriate for an outsider to interfere in one’s family affairs. Even if I could help this time, I would not be able to help them forever.

However, since I had already yelled at him, it was impossible for me to leave just like that.

When the man heard my voice, he paused mid-action and turned around to look in our direction.

When I saw his face, I was stunned. Felix?

Why is he here?

My gaze then turned to the woman cowering in front of him. She timidly raised her head and glanced at me.

I was once again astonished. As expected, the woman was Stacey. It had been some time since I last saw her, but her mature beauty had already disappeared and was replaced instead by a sunken and depressed look.
