Goodbye, My Love

“Tell me, Marco. Why are you suddenly helping your ex-wife? You abandoned me and Slater at the bar that night to save her, didn’t you?

You just help her solve such a big problem. What’s up with you?”

Marco was taken aback by these questions. He coughed awkwardly and replied, “Didn’t you say that Loraine had a hard time while she was married to me and I needed to make it up to her?”

Jimmie was speechless.

At this moment, Marco’s phone rang. The caller ID indicated that it was

Keely.

Marco glanced at the phone and looked away with a frown.

The phone rang for a few seconds before it stopped.

Jimmie looked at the phone and found that there were eight missed calls; all from Keely. He looked at Marco in shock.

He knew that Marco cared about Keely a lot, so it was surprising that he didn’t pick up her calls. It appeared that something was wrong.

Pushing his glasses up his nose, Jimmie said seriously, “Out with it,

Marco. My curiosity is killing me. Why are you not picking up Keely’s calls?”

Marco snorted. “Mind the business that pays you, pal. Don’t you want to get your reward?”

Jimmie raised both hands in surrender.

“Fine, I won’t ask that question ever again. But as your best friend, I advise you to take some time to think this over. Who do you love between Loraine and Keely?”

Love? Where did that come from?

Marco frowned deeply.

He had no interest in love.

Loraine walked into the tea room of the architectural design department.

Jolie approached her with a big smile.

“Loraine, you did a great job!” Jolie praised with a cup of coffee in her hand.

“Barry was fond of harassing beautiful young ladies in the department. We were all sick of him. However, no one was bold enough to do anything because he was the director.”
