Chapter 265: As I was saying… can you do it?
"She’s my wife. Can you kill her?"
Wife?
Marcus let out a ridiculing scoff, running his tongue across his inner cheek. Was this person one of Fil’s admirers?
After Fil started taking care of herself and changed her wardrobe, Marcus met countless men who admired Fil. For one, many bachelors during Felix Hale’s birthday celebration had shown deep interest in her.
But then, the stranger told him to kill her.
Marcus squinted. "Are you a crazy stalker?" he mocked. "Do you think killing is a joke? Whoever you are, I’m impressed with how you got in here. But considering I’m not here most of the time, the security had quite lax."
"Look." His voice changed, looking at Quentin with a serious face. "I will not press charges if you get out of my property. I understand you like Fil, but we’re not dating anymore."
Quentin didn’t say anything and simply tilted his head to the side. Shadow cast on his face, making it hard for Marcus to remember his face. However, Marcus could feel the man’s observant and intent gaze.
Marcus felt a little disconcerted and self-conscious, straightening his back to appear taller. He also puffed his chest out, a defense mechanism to show he wasn’t afraid of this intruder.
"Don’t wait for me to call for security," he warned. "I can take you out on my own and under the law, even if I ended up killing you, I will not be held responsible. After all, you snuck into my property and I’m merely defending myself from an intruder."
Again, silence was all he got.
