A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 768 Making Love

He was taken aback and felt annoyed, “It was my fault!”

“As long as you know that! I did not think of the need to explain since I know what I have done. I just will not do whatever you don’t like!” she said softly. “Let me go, I’ll get my passport, we still have to go to the office!”

“It won’t be too late!” he said in a deep voice.

A hot flush rushed on Sylvie’s face.

“What a hypocritical woman!” he said with a smirk and moved more frivolously with his hands.

“Stop it!” Sylvie shook. She could not do that! Her work would be delayed for sure!

“I know we have to go to work, do not worry! Now tell me, where is your room?” he stared straight at her. “Hmm? Sylvie?”

The thought suddenly occurred to him that Ryan Babel had stayed in her room before for several days. He was getting a little angry. Whenever he thought of Ryan Babel missing her, he would fly into a rage.

Jealousy made him a little angry. He carried her in his arms and kicked open every room’s door until he saw a cozy room with teddy bears. He believed that this was her room.

Yes! This was Sylvie’s room.

He carried her and stepped into her room. He went straight to the bed without closing the door.

He had left her in exasperation!

He was annoying. The first thing he wanted to do when he came here was to fuck her!

After they finished making love.

She carried a weary body and went to the shower, while he was lying in the bed and smirking like a cat that ate the canary. His eyes swept across the room. He enjoyed having her whenever and wherever he could! Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Sylvie sighed in the bathroom. Marley was like a child. No matter how mature and stable a man showed, it was only an outward appearance. She found that he was super childish after a deep understanding.

Every man had his faults! People would like to have an ordinary life with fewer troubles and difficulties, but she understood that life was full of uncertainties.

After the shower, she went to change, and Marley was still lying in the bed.

“Get up hurry, we are going to be late!” she said.

“Do not rush, we will not be late!”

“We have not eaten yet!”

“We can buy some food and bring it back to the office to eat!”

“Then why don't you get up!”

“Here we go, dear!” He was rushed and felt a little bit helpless.

They were not late for the afternoon work at Sylvie's urging. After the shower, they went to change. Sylvie took the passport and they left immediately.

She did not have time to meet Bonnie since they had to go abroad.

In a blink of an eye, it was already Monday. Marley was first going to take her and Tyler to go to Country K, but then he decided to let Tyler stay. He was afraid to leave without having a trusted subordinate to keep an eye on Ernie. As a result, it turned out to be a two-person trip, instead of three.

When boarding the plane, Marley teased, “Sylvie, you can think of this business trip as our honeymoon.”

Sylvie smiled, “If you can always be happy, even if there is no honeymoon, it does not matter. It is a mere formality. The most important thing is that you feel truly happy!”

Marley gently touched her nose, “You are lacking a sense of security, and you do not have confidence in me!”

“I do have confidence in you!” Sylvie smiled. She did not believe that she had such good luck, that was it. “I trust you!”

But was he trustworthy? She did not dare to think too deep!

There were some things that you had to go through before you knew whether it was trustworthy or not.

After they got off the plane, they moved to a four-star hotel in New York and decided to stay there.

When they entered the hotel lobby, Marley put his arm around her waist and went to check-in.

At this moment, there was a girl in a long white dress, standing in the lobby. She was a typical Asian girl with a graceful figure and waist-length hair. She was beautiful and slender. The girl's long hair reminded Sylvie of the photo.

“The venue is near to the hotel, so we are going to stay here tonight!” Marley had not noticed the figure yet and was still talking enthusiastically to Sylvie.

Until the girl turned around, Sylvie’s face turned pale when she saw the face, it was Jemima Wallace! Yes, it was Jemima Wallace! She was so gorgeous. When Jemima Wallace turned around, she could even take a woman's breath away.

Marley detected the sudden change in Sylvia. He turned around and looked in the direction where her eyesight was, then he saw Jemima.

He immediately released his arm that used to around her waist. His body tensed up and stood still in the lobby. Sylvie finally had a good view of Jemima who was in a white dress. She was beautiful.

She was a charming woman that everyone would love without a doubt. So it was normal for Marley and Jemima to have lived together for five years.

Sylvie gave a bitter smile and looked at herself. She always did not pay much attention to her clothes. She could not be as charming as Jemima, even she was in a dress.

“Jemima?” Marley murmured.

Sylvie raised her head to look at him and saw the pain flitted across his face. It vanished in a flash.

Jemima also noticed Marley at this time. She seemed to be a little surprised, but she quickly adjusted her expression and replaced it with a beaming smile.

Marley calmed down as well. He looked down at Sylvie who was standing beside him. He took her hand and walked towards Jemima.

“Marley, long time no see!” Jemima smiled softly.

“Jemima, long time no see!” Marley also greeted her gently, but Sylvie could hear the tension in his tone.

“Miss Sylvie, right? Uh, no! It’s Mrs. Hughes!” Jemima smiled generously and offered her hand, “Hi, Mrs. Hughes, I'm Jemima Wallace! Marley's friend!”

Jemima offered her hand while greeting.

Sylvie was stunned, and then shook Jemima's hand. They were holding each other’s hands now. Jemima's palm was slightly cold, but she still had an ingratiating smile on her face.

Sylvie said politely, “Hi, Miss Wallace!”

Jemima let go of her hand and asked, “What brings you guys here?”

“Business trip!” Marley answered in a deep voice.

“Oh, I see, are you guys staying here?”

“Yes!”

“Alright, I do not want to be a third wheel! I've done check-in, so I'll leave first.”

“Take care, Miss Wallace!” Sylvie smiled.

Jemima turned around and gave a fascinating smile. Her eyes were resting on Marley for a flash. The breeze smelled a bit of her perfume.

‘Have you ever seen a woman who wears perfume that isn’t enchanting or amorous?’

Her leather handbag dropped onto the ground when she turned around.

At that instant, the contents of her handbag spilled all over the floor.

Sylvie noticed that Marley tensed up immediately.

She was stunned and said after, “Marley, lend Miss Jemima a hand!”

“It's okay!” Jemima shook and smiled, “I'll pick it up myself!”

It made an ill appearance if she crouched down to clean up the things.

Marley remained silent and walked towards her. He quietly helped her to pick up all the things on the ground and put them in her handbag.

He was first noticed by a care card printed with the name of some hospital. He was stunned and quickly grabbed it. The date on the care card was stated a few months ago. He was astonished when he saw some words that stated she had been eight weeks pregnant.

Marley looked at Jemima with a shocked expression. Jemima was looking at him too.

Both of them were surprised and they faced each other without saying a word as if they did not even need words!

Jemima's face was ghastly when he saw the care card. Marley showed his pale face and subconsciously looked at the date and the name stated on the care card again until he saw the name of Jemima, he had more mixed feelings.

“Thank you, Marley!” Jemima had recovered from a daze. She thanked indifferently and extended her hand, “Give it to me!”

Marley looked at her in dismay. His eyes were full of doubt, heartache, puzzle, and more questions, “What's going on?”

He looked at the date again, and the baby should be his! But why he never knew that?

His eyes rested on her tummy. According to the date, she was supposed to sport a clear visible baby bump, but he realized that her tummy was flat. Was the baby gone?

“Nothing!” Jemima smiled and took the handbag away from him. She tried to get the care card as well, but he would not let go of his hand.

He said, “The baby was mine, right?”

Jemima paled and gave a bitter smile, “Do you think that I am a slattern woman?”

“Where is the baby?” he was gripping the care card so tightly that blue veins popped out of his hand. He showed full of sorrow in his eyes.

“He was gone!”

Sylvie stared at them afar off. Although she seemed calm, she was overwhelmed with emotions.

Jemima raised her head to look at Marley, she smiled.

“Tell me! What is going on?” Marley thundered.

Sylvie was startled by his voice. As Jemima smiled, her tears rolled down her cheeks. She looked eagerly at Marley. Then, she turned and ran away.

“Do not go, Jemima!” Marley chased after her.

Jemima ran quickly and brushed past Sylvie. Sylvie caught a whiff of her perfume that gave off an unforgettable fragrance.

Sylvie came into Marley's view as he turned around. But he immediately captured Jemima's figure and chased after her without saying a word to Sylvie.

There was only Sylvie left in the lobby now.

She had no idea what had happened, nor she did not know that what Marley had picked up from the ground.

When she watched him run out and look for Jemima, her heart trembled. She slowly bunched her fingers into a fist and set them at her thigh side.

Sylvie handed out the baggage to the bell boy and showed her identity document to check in. After that, she tipped the bell boy and entrusted him to carry the baggage to the room. She walked out of the lobby.

Marley and Jemima were arguing somewhere thirty meters away from the hotel. She saw them.

They seemed to be talking about something.

She did not walk over but stopped there and looked at them afar off.

Marley caught up with Jemima and grabbed her by the wrist, and asked in a deep voice, “Jemima, what is going on? Where is the baby? Where is our baby?”

“Nothing happens!” Jemima shook. She nipped her lips and seemed to be suffered.

“It was my baby, isn't it? I want to hear you say it!” Marley looked at her and asked again with a soft voice as if he had scared her by making a loud noise.

Jemima stumbled into his arms and hugged him tightly. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She whimpered in his arms, “Marley, can you stop asking me? You have got married! Do not ask again! Our baby was gone! I went back home to have an abortion on the day before your wedding!”

She was familiar with his embrace and body scent, but he was not hers anymore. She quivered in agitation.

Marley cuddled her and felt guilty after he heard that she had conceived his baby.

“Why did not you say?” his voice was filled with bitterness.
