Mark Gustave: The heir they never expected

Mark stood in front of the lady he called a wife, and couldn’t remark her. She had suddenly transformed into a stranger. A bitter pill he couldn’t explain.“Sign the papers and leave now,” Dave said, suddenly disrupting his long thoughts. He came back to life and then took a deep breath, after which he carefully approached her. He had his one hand tucked in his pocket and also in search of what to say.“I have tried my best to make this marriage work. But you didn’t give us an opportunity. I guess you are sending me out because of money…” He was about to complete his sentence when a yell came from Hailey.“Mark, we have no time. Before your arrival, we were having a good moment. Sign the fucking papers and get lost.” She said, her forehead creasing.This statement had Mark gulp. It’s not that she had never yelled at him. But the reason was outrageous. He had never imagined that their three-year-old marriage was going to come to an end in such circumstances.What could he do or say? H

“Sorry, did you say something?” Mark came a little closer to be sure she repeat her question. The lady stood, her hand placed on her waist and she looked at him seductively. Her red lipstick giving her the look of a goddess.When no response came from her, Mark didn’t force himself, he was standing in front of his door and kept gazing at the beautiful damsel.She pushed him and came inside, stopping by the huge metallic board, “I just asked a question but you didn’t reply. Aren’t you struggling with your heater? Or you haven’t yet tried it out?" The second question came in.Mark was taken aback as he assumed she knew what conditions the apartment was in, but still decided to rent it out without getting the problem solved.“Do you mean you were aware of the heater having a problem but you still decided to have it rented without getting its problem solved?”“You know fully how important the heater is at this crucial moment. We are in winter, I don’t have to remind you what it can cause

“Mr. Mark Gustave, would you be able to prove where you got the money to buy this car?” The officer stared right into his eyes before questioning. “There’s no point adding Mr to his name, commissioner, he is just an ordinary thief who stole from the hotel to get this car.” Roger chirped in, “There’s even no point asking him further questions. You should hold the car in your custody, and if in 21 days he is unable to demonstrate where his income comes from, then my team shall sell the car and refund the money he stole.” Mark had his hands loosely folded behind his back. He had nothing to say, that’s because the money he had used to buy the car was the money he had done several other side businesses. He wouldn’t admit it there because it would involve lots of people.“I see you ain’t willing to speak,” The commissioner snapped, “In that case, we are going to hold the car and after 21 days, we would sell it out.” Mark gulped hard while hearing this.Anyway, he was a man who didn’t atta

“Young master, can you tell me what you’re doing here? How the hell did you become Mr. Lloyd’s driver?” Badmun sent him a message while focusing his direction on him.Mark opened the message and could tell Badmun was furious. He was about to reply to his text when another message came in.“I thought you wanted me to keep the secret away from the master, what then are you doing here? Do you want him to fish you out?” He gulped, thinking of what to reply.“I’m sorry, Badmun, but there was no way I was going to deny his offer. I had no idea I was going to end up as a driver, but all I can say is that I’m not gonna be resigning anytime soon.”“What?! Have you gone nuts? The master would walk him out anytime soon and do you think he isn’t going to notice you?” Badmun sent another message, making sure to type very much faster.In the end, Badmun didn’t know what he was after. Whether he was in support of Mark hiding himself from his father or what. This is someone who had pleaded with him

“You’re joking right?” Hailey smirked, cupping her hand on her mouth, “Who the hell would hire Mark as a spy? The guy isn’t doing well for himself, do you think someone would use him?” She said, bring out a point.“Sure, you might be right. But why then did he…” Lost in his thoughts, he was kind of intelligent enough to know he didn’t have to spill out what he had in mind.“Then why? Is there something you aren’t telling me, Dave? Did Mark do anything that made you doubt about his personality?”Immediately the question was asked, Dave raised his head and pretended everything was going on well. “Humm, there’s no point for us talking about this anymore. I’ll go back home now, my dad should be waiting for me.” He said politely.“Okay, let me see you out,” Hailey accompanied her fiancé and got back to the living room when his car had left. After a short while of reflecting on all the questions asked by Dave, she pushed it to the back of her mind and concentrated on her series.Dave parke
