Chapter 25 Marlon You're Inhuman (I)
Marlon stared at me with his angry black eyes and said,
"What do you mean?"
I smile at Marlon.
"You've cut me off from my thoughts. How do you think what I mean!"
My eyes fell on Alicia behind Marlon. I wore a smile.
"Of course I wish you two a happy life!"
I snorted mockingly and turned to leave.
Marlon yanked me back with force that I slammed right into his hard chest. I tried to push his away, but
he had surprising strength and it hurt as if my wrist had broken.
"Marlon, I think you got the wrong person. Your beloved fiancée is behind you, not me. Let go of me
lest I get your hands dirty!"
Before I could finish my words, he held my wrist more tightly. It hurt so much.
Marlon stared at me. His dark eyes were burning with angry fire, as if to devour me. My heart ached. I
felt funny and sad. He was angry for a while, and I naively thought that he loved me. But the fact
proved again and again that Marlon only hated me.
He was deeply in love with Alicia.
"Marlon, I will remove you from my world and consider you have never showed up!"
"Rachael!"
Before I could finish my sentence, Marlon shouted my name angrily.
“Ah!”
I looked into his eyes and was silent, expecting his words, but Alicia suddenly gave a short scream and
fainted on the ground. Marlon pushed me away and anxiously picked up Alicia on the ground to check
what was going on with her.
My body was pushed into the stone pillar behind me. I was painful, but I did not move. Marlon anxiously
picked up Alicia to the car and left. I had never seen his anxious face, which was like a knife stabbing in
my heart.
It hurt.
Looking at the car disappear, all I could do was to smile miserably and self-deprecatingly. I should not
have expected.
Tears fell down from my eyes, and I slapped my face hard trying to stop that.
"Rachael, you can't cry, you can't cry again for Marlon, absolutely not!"
But the tears were falling down, so I hit myself hard again. Yeah, what was worth crying for? Alicia
pretended to faint obviously, but Marlon was anxious. What was I crying for?
I raised my head, looked in the direction of the long-lost car and turned back to Universal Group.
But as soon as I entered the office, people throughout the office stared at me with a strange look and
hid the things in their hands, as if I would steal them if they didn't.
Suddenly, a sense of foreboding pervaded. People around looked at me and murmured.
"I can't believe she stole things. What a disgrace to Universal Group!"
"And she suddenly replaced the position of Ms. Everly!
I heard she shamelessly went to be Mr. Charles's pet in order to get into Universal Group!"
"It's disgusting enough to look at her. She pretended to be nice, but she actually is the most disgusting
one!"
I looked around at my colleagues brightly disliking me without any consideration for my feelings, and I
just went back to my own seat in silence.
"Mr. Charles is here, Mr. Charles is here!"
Suddenly, the office was abuzz with excitement, but each one of them suppressed their excitement due
to the presence of Kieran.
I got up and went towards the office where Kieran went in. I was aware that CH was a brand under the
Marlon Group, but I didn't expect that the person in charge was Alicia. If it was Alicia in charge, I would
fail to acquire it.
So, I had to talk to Kieran.
When I walked in, Everly was debriefing Kieran about events in the afternoon, including that I had Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
stolen Alicia's ring, disgraced the Universal Group and disgraced Kieran.
I didn't retort, but stood quietly in the corner and waited for Everly to finish her report.
"Look, Mr. Charles, Rachael has nothing to say. I think an employee who tarnishes the company's
image like this should never be tolerated!"
Everly said with a straight face.
Kieran responded faintly.
"I got it!"
Then he told Everly to go out. Everly looked at Kieran with some consternation. She could not believe
that Kieran didn't fire me on the spot but told her to leave, but Everly said nothing and left with an ugly
face. Before opening the door, she gave me a fierce glare.
"I didn't steal Alicia's ring!"
I spoke.
Kieran stood lazily by the window and sideways to me. I couldn't see his expression, but he answered
me faintly.
"You believe me!"
I walked up in amazement and excitement.
Kieran turned around and stared at me with his red eyes. I suddenly remembered that Kieran had set
the rule that I couldn't get close to him, so I backed up consciously and looked at Kieran and said
sincerely.
"Thank you for believing me!"
It surprised me that everyone in the world didn’t believe me, while the one I thought would be believe
me chose to believe me.
Kieran grunted.
"Mr. Charles, can I change the deal between me and you? As long as it's not acquiring CH, I can do
anything!"
I asked carefully.
Kieran stared at me, with a chill seeping from his blood-red eyes and a powerful pressure pressing
down on me.
"One week, if you fail, contract will be cancelled!"
Kieran finished and left, not giving me any chance to say anything at all.
I stood still, feeling bad, but I knew that since there was only one road ahead, I had to finish it, even if it
was full of thorns, otherwise, what should Davidson do?
"How shameless, she couldn't wait to go to him as soon as he arrived!"
"Yes, disgusting. How dare she defile Mr. Charles!"
As soon as I walked out the door, the women in the office mocked me loudly. I just ignored it and went
back to my seat.
"Rachael, don’t be too complacent. Universal Group is a place where efficiency and performance are
important, and Mr. Charles only values ability. People without ability and value can only be eliminated
by the company!"
Everly walked past my seat and warned me.
I didn't say anything and studied information of CH.
As soon as it was at the end of the day, I rushed to the hospital with the information in my arms, but just
as I was about to reach the hospital, I was suddenly pulled backwards into a dim alley.
