By now, the commotion had drawn everyone in and they all watched in complete shock.
None of them had even considered it possible that Marco would defend his ex-wife.
Even Jennie was shocked, but she was also happy to see it.
Looking at Marco, she leaned over to Loraine and whispered, “Wow, hasn't he changed a lot, Lorrie? He's so
much better now.”
Loraine pressed her lips together and didn’t say anything.
She was lost in thought as she stared at Marco, wondering if he would have protected her like this early in their
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmarriage if he knew she was getting harassed.
She doubted it though.
Back then, all he cared about was Keely.
Marco glared at Flash, who was still crying and begging for mercy. He turned to Slater. “Do you know this pig?”
Slater wasted no tdenying Flash.
“Hey, you know how | am, Marco. | just met him at sparty two years ago. We aren't close or anything. | can’t
be involved with such an idiot.”
Flash felt his jaw drop. He couldn't believe it. “What? Slater, you're the one who toldabout Loraine...”
“Shut your dirty mouth!” Slater shouted him down quickly.
“You really don’t know your place, huh? How can a rat like you annoy Loraine? With
Universe Group at her disposal, she can teach you a hard lesson.”

It was truly a stupid thing to go after Loraine, especially because doing that meant making an enemy of Marco.
Slater didn’t say that part out Loud, though.
Flash’s jaw hung open in shock.

Who was Slater talking about? There was no way it could be Loraine. How was it possible? He remembered how
they used to make fun of Marco for marrying a pauper from the countryside back then.
How could it be that Loraine was now the CEO of Universe Group?
Flash felt his heart sink. He had been battling with alcohol addiction and hadn’t been paying much attention to
the news. He did hear that the
Torres family had found their missing girl and had brought her back to inherit their business. He hadn't cared to
check who the girl was, though.
Slater scoffed. “Have you been living under a rock? Didn't you see the news?”
If he had been paying attention to the news, he would have known that the Lead singer of Shepherd was the
CEO of Universe Group.
