Chapter 120: He Wants Become His Boyfriend

A smile lights up Marcellus's handsome and elegant face. Unspeakable happiness fills his heart.

He can't wait to see Katrina.

But when he hears that Katrina isn't feeling well and wants to cancel their dinner, Marcellus's smiling face suddenly twists into worry.

Is she sick?

What happened to her?

In the next moment, Farrah's voice on the phone rises sharply. Farrah's shock is palpable as she asks what happened to Katrina's face.

As Katrina prevails, Farrah is particularly indignant.

Marcellus discovers the truth from their conversation.

Apparently, Sophie hit Katrina. She slapped her face so hard, and it left a distinct handprint on her face.

That's why Katrina is making up an excuse to cancel dinner tonight. She doesn't want him to see her injury.

Marcellus is heartbroken and angry, and his hand involuntarily clenches the phone.

Sophie...

Katrina is Sophie's sister. How could she do that to her?

In front of Marcellus, Sophie has always maintained a proper image. And Marcellus has always treated her like a sister.

He had no idea that Sophie is capable of such violence.

Out of concern and consideration for Katrina, Marcellus naturally feels aversion towards Sophie at the discovery.

He wants to confront Sophie and demand to know why she treated Katrina that way.

But suddenly, he hears Katrina's voice pleading Farrah not to tell him about it. She says that even though she likes him, she doesn't want to use him as a weapon.

On the one hand, Marcellus is relieved to hear that she values him in her heart.

On the other hand, he feels completely helpless.

Why is she so ridiculous?

So what if she takes advantage of him?

Marcellus likes her, and he wants to become her boyfriend. Is it wrong to protect the woman he loves?

But since Katrina doesn't want him to know, he chooses to respect her decision and act like he didn't hear anything.

After all, he isn't her boyfriend yet. He is no position to protect her.

Considering Katrina's relationship with the Andersons, Marcellus understands her current situation and can't get too involved in their conflict.

In the end, Marcellus hangs up and gives up, wanting to confront Sophie.

If Katrina can't find an excuse to cancel their dinner, he will cancel for her instead.

After a few minutes of calm, Marcellus adjusts his mood and dials Katrina's number again. He pretends that he needs to cancel because he needs to work overtime tonight.

Sure enough, Katrina readily agrees.

Knowing that his woman is being bullied, but being unable to stand up for her or seek justice on her behalf, Marcellus finds it hard to accept the feeling of helplessness.

After a long silence in the car, he finally drives on his own to the western restaurant he made reservations at.

He wanted to pick Katrina up and have her dinner here.

But now...

He eats dinner alone.

Marcellus doesn't want to ask anyone out, aside from Katrina.

At this time, Sophie is having her hair done and getting a ma.s.sage with her best friend, Cindy.

Lying on the bed with a thick face mask on, they are getting a ma.s.sage from the spa attendants.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"I'm so furious!"

Sophie rants angrily to Cindy, "You don't know how aggressive that b.i.t.c.h was! She grabbed my arm and tried to hit me!

"She's just a shameless orphan that my father adopted. I don't know which nightclub she spent the night at to sell herself to some old man! That b.i.t.c.h! How dare she steal Marcellus away from me without any scruples?

"At home, my father protects her. And I have no idea what kind of sorcery she did to Marcellus to make him fall for her. But now, she suddenly dares to threaten me so arrogantly!

"I should have thrown her out when my dad adopted her before she got the nerve to fight back. I don't understand what Marcellus likes about her so much! How could he think that such an ungrateful woman is a good person?"

Though Sophie hit Katrina and slapped her, she didn't come out on top. Instead of succeeding in threatening Katrina with something that happened four years ago, she fought back.

At that moment, Sophie feels extremely angry and depressed.

After being spoiled her whole life, Sophie cannot accept being defeated by a woman of humble status.

When Cindy invited her to get a facial together this afternoon, she couldn't help but vent all her frustration out during their session.

Cindy is lying beside her. "Sophie, don't be upset! Katrina is n.o.body. Who are you?

"You are the daughter of a well-known real estate entrepreneur. In our circle, everyone knows about your status and influence. Who knows Katrina in our circle? Who looks up to her? No one!

"You are prettier than her, have a better figure than her, and was born to such a great family. You are absolutely better than her in every way!

"Marcellus must only be confused by her right now. How could he actually like her? The day she is exposed is the day Marcellus will turn against her.

"I think you and Marcellus are a match made in heaven. As the Brook heir, Marcellus is a great a.s.set. He is so amazing that he runs Abbe's largest law firm. Would his family let him settle for such a poor woman as his girlfriend?

"You have to be confident, Sophie!

"You've known each other for so many years. There is no other woman who has been at Marcellus's side beside you. If he wants a girlfriend, you will be his first choice.

"Don't give up! Sooner or later, you will become his wife."

Hearing Cindy's rea.s.suring certainty, Sophie finally feels a little better.

Although Katrina can confuse Marcellus for a while, she can't do it forever.

Marcellus's parents will definitely look down on Katrina too. There's no way that they will let them date.

In the end, Marcellus will be hers.

Seeing Sophie's mood improve, Cindy is relieved. "That's the spirit! Besides, didn't Marcellus buy the phone you want for your birthday? Don't worry. He must value you in his heart!"
