Chapter 1088

Comelia said, “You go see him, I’ll wait here”

Marcus knew Cornelia had a bone to pick with Zavier because of Skyler. She didn’t want to set foot near Zavier and Marcus didn’t push her. “Alright then”

A bit later.

Marcus saw Zavier, his hair had turned gray This guy, not even thirty, seemed to have aged overnight. He was lying in bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, not uttering

a word

When Marcus walked in, he didn’t react

Marcus sat at his bedside, “Zavier”

Zavier didn’t move, didn’t respond

Marcus continued, “Skyler’s been burnt to a crisp.”

At the mention of Skyler’s name, two tears rolled down Zavier’s face and then he chuckled, “Here to rub salt in my wounds, are ya?”

Marcus asked. “You really think I’d do that?”

Zavier said, “Does it really matter to me?”

Marcus said, “I’m here to talk about Skyler”

Every time he heard Skyler’s name, Zavier’s heart ached as if stabbed, but he wouldn’t admit it, “Don’t bring up that heartless woman in front of me.”

Marcus looked at his gray hair and the tears in his eyes, shaking his head in frustration, “Look at the state you’re in, still playing tough. Don’t you get why she had to leave?

Zavier said, “I don’t know, do you?”

Marcus said, “You once told me you liked her, but did you ever tell her? Did you ever show her in your day–to–day life?”

Zavier said, “You’ve only been hitched a hot minute, don’t pretend to be a love guru.”

Marcus said, “I’m no expert, but I know the first rule of liking someone is to respect them.”

Zavier laughed, then cried, “She’s been with me since she was a teenager. She’s an integral part of my life. So she’s seen my worst side. I thought she understood me, and I never hid my emotions from her. I wore my heart on my sleeve. The Blue family needed money. I knew they didn’t have the chops to run a company, and that my investment might go down the drain. But because they were her family, her support, I still forked over some cash to the Blues. But how did they repay me? How did she treat me? She actually aborted our child, thinking about leaving me. She actually thought about leaving me! I loved her so much, why did she want to leave me? Marc, you tell me! I’m begging you, tell me why.”
