CHAPTER ELEVEN Marcus saw them sauntering from where he was seated calmly, his eyes moving slowly away from them.But he was unbothered, barely moved by the threat he saw glittering in their eyes.Vanessa seemed more eager to get to him, and the only thing that stopped her from moving ahead of Victor was her protruding belly. She was enraged, firing shots of disdain from a distance. Their movement quietly drew the attention of some of the guests, eyes flashing across the aisle. Finally, they were standing before Marcus, and it was clear that a hot drama was about to unfold. Tension, grew, chests puffed, and bloodshot eyes burned with piercing glares. Marcus took a deep breath, and then he finally took a sip from the glass he was holding.Then he smacked, looking up at the couple for the first time since they stood before him. Vanessa sighed the moment she saw that Marcus had finally recognized their presence, almost thinking that they had become invisible to him.She grunted, t

CHAPTER TWELVE Marcus looked up, and then he scoffed.He couldn’t hide it, the spite he felt for the woman he once called his own. “You wish.” He blurted, causing the couple to gasp.Vanessa covered her mouth while she turned to look at Victor, urging him to do something about her ex-husband’s unusual audacity. Victor stepped forward after a few seconds, and Vanessa felt a bit relaxed.She adjusted her dress, nodding while she waited for what was about to happen. Victor snorted, and while he was still boiling with disdain, he repeated his threat from earlier. “It’s either you leave this place on your own or I am going to ask the Head of Security of this place to throw you out.” He waited, hoping that his words were going to be able to spark some fear inside Marcus.At that time, they had drawn the attention of almost everyone in the hall.All eyes were on them, accompanied by the murmurings about the event that was meant to start in a couple of minutes. Marcus sighed heavily,

CHAPTER THIRTEEN“Mr. Whitehead??!” Victor called out again, drawing the immediate attention of the middle-aged man, causing him to stare at him while he struggled through the distance.“Victor Langford?”“Yes! It’s me!” Victor increased his pace as soon as he realized that the man had recognized him, marching as though he was the host of the event.Victor had to stop getting closer when the two guards standing next to the middle-aged man tried to stop him, putting out their hands.“It’s okay. Let him through.” Gary signaled to the guards, and after they had given Victor one last look, they stepped out of the way slowly.“I wasn’t certain if it was you, Mr. Whitehead. But I am very glad that I have seen you.” Victor chuckled softly, and then he extended his right hand toward Gary for a handshake.He sighed in relief as soon as Gary obliged him, getting rid of the doubt that was simmering inside him.“What are you doing here, Victor?” Gary asked, admiring the fancy suit Victor was putt

CHAPTER FOURTEENIt was as though Vanessa’s breath had ceased, but she was able to get a grip on herself.“Did you just speak to me like that?” She asked, but Marcus paid her no more attention.The latter turned to Gary, and then he took a deep breath.“Who did you say you are again?” He asked, holding onto the smirk all over his face.“Who the hell do you think you are to ask him that?!” Victor snapped, pointing Marcus in the face.“Do you know what he is capable of doing to you, Marcus?! You should be afraid right now.”“But I am not…” Marcus remarked, still staring at the middle-aged man.“I am sure you can speak on your own behalf. You don’t need anyone to talk on your behalf.”Gary snorted, and then he slowly turned to face Victor who almost looked away immediately.“I am so sorry that he insulted you, Mr. Whitehead….”“No…” Gary stopped Victor before he could continue, taking a deep breath.“You don’t need to worry about me. I will take care of him myself. He is nothing.” He ret
