It was so quiet. Everyone was silent with such a strange feeling. When she heard Marco's words, Stefani immediately looked down slowly. The woman was silent at first before suddenly laughing and getting louder. "You must be crazy," he said amidst laughter.Stefani rubbed her watery eyes because she felt this was all too crazy. "How can you still joke around in a tense moment like this? I didn't know you were that clueless about serious matters."She then let out a sigh that sounded so heavy. She shook her head several times to ward off the discomfort that kept chasing and haunting her. "So Marco, stop saying nonsense." Until the end, Stefani would not be able to accept that fact. Even though Marco had told her his identity, she would brush it off and act like it was a joke.Marco was still staring at Stefani coldly. Gone was the warm glow that the man used to give his ex-wife. "Do you think I'm lying now?" he asked flatly.Stefani nodded. "Yes, of course. "I know your family, and it's
Marco had just woken up that morning when the sun had risen almost an hour ago. He sat up and pulled back the blanket before pausing long enough to overcome the sleepiness still attacking him. Before then, he walked towards the window and opened it to get some fresh air.The man breathed in slowly, enjoying the rather pleasant morning view from the inn prepared for him. "It's more crowded than I expected," Marco muttered as he realized more people were out this morning. Some carried baskets of fruits and vegetables to go to the market. The natives of the island of Valoria tended to prefer things that were natural and a bit old-fashioned.Marco then walked inside to refresh his body. He had plans to take a walk around here. There were many places he had yet to visit, even though this was his third day on the island of Valoria.Finished cleaning up, Marco quickly walked out. The man was wearing a dark red long-sleeved polo shirt with beige pants. His face looked much fresher and relaxed
"Shut your mouth, you're making too many excuses!" scolded Agnes loudly. The woman was enough to draw attention from the people around her and make the place even more crowded with the curious crowd. The debate involving the guards was always the main topic of the people around, as it could help them figure out the situation. They started whispering, asking each other about what was happening between Agnes and Marco.Agnes turned to the two guards who had been there since she called them. "You guys need to take him immediately before he draws more attention to himself. You'll be in trouble if that happens." The guards looked around and realized that. People were staring and waiting. And what they would do in the future would make people think whether they were good guards or not.Everything Agnes said made Marco sick. The man was cornered just because a woman fell in front of him. "Stop this. "The stalker you're talking about probably doesn't live here."The taller guard nodded. "Yes,
At that instant, the two guards immediately looked at Marco with accusing gazes. "Undoubtedly, you must be an imposter. From that attitude of yours, it's clear that you're someone who can do something dangerous to the people here."The taller guard nodded and agreed. "Yes, it might be what Miss Agnes said earlier if you were a sexual harasser." Instantly, people started commenting in slightly louder voices. This display was like a show that attracted many people.One of the women who was a tourist who happened to be passing by immediately glared. "How creepy. It turns out that behind his gentlemanly face, he's a pervert."Marco heard it all. People were prejudiced against him because of the misunderstanding and unreasonable accusations that had befallen him. Even the guard was already preparing to take out the handcuffs in his hands. "Alright, sir, we have to arrest you right now.""Yes, he should be severely punished for endangering so many women!" supported Agnes in a loud voice.Ma
Instantly, everyone fell silent, looking at each other in surprise. Of course, everyone recognized the man. He was Don, the manager of the True Home Inn that Marco had said he was staying at two days ago. And if that man called Marco sir, even bringing him a new access card, this could only mean one thing. It was about Marco's position that he was staying at the super expensive inn.Seeing this extremely confusing situation, Agnes naturally made the first move. The woman cleared her throat and spoke in such a soft voice. "Sir, you look so panicked, what's wrong?" Agnes' heart beat faster, half hoping that her guess was wrong. If it turned out that Marco had such an important position, then she might get into trouble.Don chuckled a little, then inclined his head slightly towards Marco. "Yes, this Mr. Marco owns the most expensive building here. The status is more than VVIP, and I feel very panicked about being late in handling her complaint." The man said this was no big deal, and eve
Agnes was terrified when she heard Marco's rebuttal. She felt her knees trembling, and her vision was becoming unfocused. The woman swallowed repeatedly, thinking of the money she had spent to stay here. Her entire savings had been drained just to be on the island of Valoria. If she were kicked out, one of her dreams would be dashed. Meeting great and famous people would only be her wishful thinking. It would all be gone in an instant.Agnes had not gone here for no purpose or just for a vacation. She had nothing to lose if all her money was gone, but she could meet a bigger man. It would be a guarantee for her later life. Agnes was sure she wasn't bad and could attract people's attention.And if she got kicked out, her depleted savings wouldn't provide any security. Her life was going to be difficult, and she had nothing left. Agnes hasn't even found a great guy yet. She was still with Dion, which was not enough, and it would be sad if she didn't get more.Finally, after taking a dee
It was already noon when Marco came out of his room. Wearing casual shoes and a white short-sleeved shirt, Marco locked his room. He then put his access card into his wallet, this time making sure that it wouldn't get lost again.After making sure that he had the card along with his wallet and cell phone, Marco walked into the elevator to go down to the first floor. Just then, midway through the ride, someone stopped the elevator and entered. Marco didn't know that he was Don, the manager of the inn he was staying at.Upon entering, Done looked up at Marco and bowed politely. "Good afternoon, Mr. Marco." Then, the man came to stand side by side with Marco in the elevator."Sir, I'm really sorry for what happened to you this morning. I really didn't expect that to happen," Don said in such a polite tone. The man even bowed slightly to remain in a respectful position towards Marco.Afterward, Don cleared his throat and licked his lips. He was a little insecure about having to face Marco
"Just shut your useless mouth, or do you want me to crush you until you can't talk and complain? I told you, you'll be my bitch. Do you understand?" asked Johny noisily. The man pointed at Marco with his hand and tried to intimidate him with his fierce face. It didn't look natural. His figure looked so frustrated.Even as he was about to hit Marco, Johny caught himself and shouted, "Damn it! Why did you even show up in front of me, anyway? Don't you have a brain? A rich man like you understands what it's like to be penniless!" He ruffled his hair roughly, almost as if he was grabbing it himself.Without even asking, Marco clearly knew what happened to this obscure man before him. He has a big problem that can't be solved by himself. It was obvious from her babbling that she was sounding more and more nonsensical and drifting back and forth like she was delirious.Marco stared at her flatly, listening to all the pointless cursing. "You should think before you do something."Johnny snor
