Chapter 39 He Will Definitely Regret It Later
"Don't worry, I will handle our matters," Daphne reassured Marcus. "Your task is to take good care of your health, so as not to let unworthy people affect you."
"Alright." Marcus truly liked Daphne. "I will listen to you."
"In the following day, Daphne mostly stayed in the hospital room with Marcus, chatting and making him happy. Marcus, such a smart person, noticed many subtle details from Daphne's demeanor and speech.
While they were alone in the room, he spoke up, “ 'Daphne.'
'Yes?' she responded.
'Just be honest with me, but is your family quite wealthy?”' Marcus asked directly. Many things can be observed through interactions.
Daphne, this girl, always responds to everything with indifference, as if nothing can stir her emotions. This calmness in facing things is related to the environment she grew up in.
Daphne didn't hide it, “'Yes.”'
“'Do you mind telling me which family's daughter you are?”' Marcus didn't pressure her and gave her the choice.
“'The Murphy Group,”' Daphne answered and .
Marcus felt relieved. Daphne served him fruit while discussing, “'Can you keep this a secret for now?”'
“'Of course, I'll keep it a secret!”' Marcus had no doubt and any concerns he had, quickly disappeared. “'Knowing that you have such a background, I'm not as worried anymore.”'
“'Worried?”' Daphne was a little puzzled.
Marcus's mood improved, “'If you didn't have a background, I would be worried about Charles mistreating you.”'
Daphne felt warmed by his words.
Marcus let out a sigh, “'I know Charles's character. Now, he divorces you for that Kayla, but once you two are truly divorced, he'll realize who the right person is. '
'At that timeand, he will definitely want to make amends,”' Marcus saw through ithim.
Daphne continued to peel the fruit, 'Marcus...'
“'Daphne, I can turn a blind eye to other matters, but there's one thing I must interfere with,”' Marcus felt much better, and his words carried strength.
Daphne paused, “'What is it?”'
“'If Charles wants to remarry you later, don't agree easily,”' Marcus was angry, genuinely thinking Daphne was good, “'Men have a flaw. The easier something is to obtain, the less they know how to treasure it.”'
Daphne said, '...'
She coughed lightly, “'Marcus, you are also a man.”'
“'Just remember what I said,”' Marcus coughed lightly to conceal his embarrassment, “'The rest doesn't matter.”'
“'Okay,”' Daphne agreed.
For Marcus, he really wanted Daphne to become his granddaughter-in-law. But then he thought, if Daphne were his own granddaughter, he would definitely not agree to her being with a jerk like Charles. There were various considerations..."
Marcus chose to stand on Daphne's side.
Daphne wais such a good girl,girl; she should be happy.
Just as Charles was about to enter from outside the door, he heard his grandfather's words. His brow couldn't help but furrow, and a thought emerged in his mind: “why does everyone think he will regret it?”
Mark does.
His grandfather does too.
Even when he went to complete the discharge procedure just now, his mother also pulled him aside and said the same thing.
He didn't dwell on this question any longer, pushed open the door, and walked in. His tall figure appeared in the hospital room, making the room seem a bit narrowcrowded.
"The discharge procedures have has been completed," Charles said to Marcus, as indifferent and cold as ever. "Do you want me to take you back, or should your 'granddaughter' take you back?"
"No need for you." Marcus was still angry with him, and the incident from yesterday morning flashed through his mind.
He Marcus was practicing calligraphy in the wyard at the time when Charles arrived at the old house with Kayla. After a brief introduction, he openly stated in front of themstated that he would marry Kayla after divorcing Daphne.
As soon as he heard this, he became furious and without much thought, slapped Charles. His anger reverberated in his heart.
He never expected would have imagined that a polite and sensible grandson like himmself, the polite and sensible grandson, to would do something so absurd.!
"Fine." Charles didn't say much.
"The car is waiting outside."
Some simple packing up.
Daphne took Marcus and left the hospital.
As they passed by Charles, the two of them, as if mutually understandingbarely , didn't exchange glances and treated each other as strangers.
Another day passed in the blink of an eye.
Daphne had been in Ivrea City for two days. After comforting Marcus, she went to the duplex apartment that had been cleaned by the housekeeper to wait for the divorce certificate.
There were still thirteen days until the process was completed and shefor her to could obtain the divorce certificate.
She couldn't be bothered to go back to Gedser again.
That day.
She had just taken out her notebook to do some work when the doorbell rang.
Without thinking much, she got up from the couch and walked over to open the door.
When she saw Kayla standing outside, she paused. She never expected this personher to find her there.
"Miss Murphy." Kayla was wearing a light beige coat today, her beautiful hair cascading over her shoulders. "I have something to discuss with you. Could you please let me in?"
"Not convenient." Daphne firmly refused. "No interest in disinfecting."
Kayla clenched her hand tightly at her side, her face struggling to maintain a gentle expression.
She bit her lip. "Why do you have such hostility towards me?"
Daphne slummed the door to her face in response. "Bang!"
In response to her, Daphne closed the door.
There was no one left for the mistress to do this.
A touch of cunning flashed in Kayla's eyes. She stood there for a long time before ringing the doorbell again.
Today, she had to have a good conversation with Daphne.
Once.
Twice.
...
Countless times.
TheShe kept ringing the doorbell kept ringingcountless times.
Turning around, Daphne turned off the doorbell. But what she didn't expect was that some people had thicker skin than the city walls. Realizing that the doorbell had no effect, she began knocking on the door frantically.Daphne turned off the doorbell system but as soon as Kayla realized, she started banging on the door.
In this apartment building, there were two households on the ground floor, and Daphne knew that her neighbor lived next door. Worried about disturbing her neighbor, she reluctantly opened the door again, showing no patience with Kayla. "What do you want?"
If only she had known this would cause so much trouble. She should have bought the neighboring unit as well.
"I just want to talk to you," Kayla said, devoid of the gentleness she had in front of Charles, locking eyes with Daphne.
Daphne exuded a mature woman's aura. "There's nothing to talk about with someone who intrudes on other people's relationships."
"If we're talking about intruding, you're the one who intruded on my relationship with Charles, aren't you?" Kayla, without a hint of her usual fragility, continued, "If it weren't for you suddenly appearing, we would have had a child by now."
