What was the difference between him and Sampson?
This was even more evil than Sampson’s behavior.
Maria hadn’t expected her to look so calm, “I look forward to see your last move.”
Loredana didn’t continue to stand there; she started to walk.
“Six years ago, you asked Sampson to go to Country A to investigate something. Do you still remember?”
Of course, Loredana remembered. She had suspected that person to be Cormac at that time, but the result of subsequent investigation had proved her wrong.
And when he had asked for divorce, she had also given up.
“Sampson lied to you. The man that night was not from Country A.”
Loredana didn’t stop. Obviously, Maria was just saying that on purpose.
But for what purpose?
Loredana didn’t know that, but the only thing she was sure about was that Maria was not kind enough to tell her the truth.
Perhaps, she had been lying from the beginning to lure her in.
Loredana slowly turned around to look at her, “Don’t bother! I won’t be fooled by you. I will never believe you.”
Maria was not angry at her words at all, on the contrary, she laughed happily, “I have been stupid and have failed so many times. But even I can’t always fail… I must succeed at least once.”
Loredana said coldly, “Those who go against moral conscience never succeed.”
“Did I have any grudges against you?” Maria sneered, “But when you walked in and stole my man, how could I not hate you?”
Loredana had nothing left to say. Her relationship with Cormac was only a marriage contract from when they were children.
Even if she married Cormac later, she had never thought about destroying her relationship with
Cormac.
But Maria framed her again and again.
“You made yourself what you are right now. If you trusted the feelings between you two so much, why did you even care about my existence?”
Loredana words stabbed Maria right where it hurt the most. There were no feelings between them, what would she have trusted?
Cormac admitted her identity, but why wasn’t there the love that was there that night?
And even that night, it was this woman!
“Loredana, let’s wait and see. For as long as I live, I won’t let you live happily!” Maria couldn’t laugh anymore.
Her face looked hideous and terrifying.
Loredana smiled.
This idea wasn’t new for Maria. Ever since Cormac had married her, she had always wanted Loredana to die.
Back in the private lounge, there were two empty wine bottles on the table. after she went to the bathroom, the three of them seemed to have drank a lot.
“Loredana, come in, let me pour you a toast.’
Seeing Loredana walk in, Armand stood up with wine in his hand.
His face did not show the amount of wine he had. His face was still not red but his speech was slurred and he looked very drunk.
“You are drunk.” Loredana sat down, but this time she didn’t sit with Cormac.
When they had come there, Cormac had been holding on to her hand and she didn’t have any other choice but to sit with him.
But she was extremely shocked after hearing Maria’s words.
Maria had done a lot wrong to him, but how could he use such cruel means to deal with her?
A woman’s purity was extremely important.
He treated her well now, but how long was this going to last?
What id he got tired of her and didn’t feel the spark with her anymore?
Would he do the same to her too?
Loredana didn’t dare to think too deeply about it, but her blood felt freezing in her body.
Why did he have such a cruel heart?
Armand was taken aback. Ever since Loredana had come back in the lounge, the atmosphere felt cold.
He realized soon that something was wrong. Even though Loredana was not happy when she came but still, she and Cormac’s relationship looked quite intimate.
But things changed since she went out and came back. She didn’t sit with Cormac and her expression were not good too.
What went wrong?
Armand was confused.
Cormac’s eyes were dark. Naturally, he had also felt Loredana’s sudden cold attitude.
The atmosphere was so depressing that even Armand didn’t try to talk nonsense.
He sat back quietly, he had been thinking about toasting for Cormac and Loredana, but now he didn’t dare to say anything. He hid behind Boyce like a frightened quail.
Cormac picked up the glass of wine in front of him and touched it to his lips, pouring the wine into his mouth, staining his teeth and tongue. His cold and graceful demeanor appeared again as his lips became red, “It’s enough for today.”
He put the empty glass back on the table and stood up. Passing Loredana on his way out, he held out his hand to her and said, “We should go home.”
Loredana stood up but didn’t take his hand.
Armand gave Loredana a thumb-up behind Cormac’s back. She didn’t even care about his image, great!
Cormac turned to look at Armand who was gloating.
Armand was so frightened that he said hurriedly, “I didn’t see anything. In fact, I am blind.”
He covered his eyes.
It was never a good idea to mock Cormac.
Armand only dared to uncover his eyes after Cormac and Loredana had left the lounge.
“Terrified idiot!” Boyce took a sip of his wine and then stood up, “You can go back.”
Armand nodded quickly, “Did they have a fight? Weren’t they happy a while ago? How did they change so quickly?”
“Who knows?” Boyce couldn’t figure it out either.
Outside.
“You are drunk, let me drive.” Loredana said.
Cormac didn’t give her the keys, instead he got in the driver’s seat and started the car.
Loredana stood by the car, not getting in.
He turned his head to look at her, “Why? Are you afraid my car is unsafe?”
“No.”
“Then? Why aren’t you getting in?”
Loredana hesitated for a moment, and then she opened the door and sat in the car.
Cormac began to drive.
He drove fast and the route he took was not the one that went back to the villa. Loredana frowned,
“Where are you taking me?”
Cormac did not answer her.
Loredana had no choice but to sit patiently and quietly.
After a while, the car stopped at the hotel she had been to last time.
Loredana sat still in her seat, “Why did you bring me here?”
Cormac opened her door, pulled her out by the wrist and strode into the lobby dragging her with him.
“What are you doing?” Loredana struggled to free her hand, but his hands were as strong as iron cuffs.
Through the lobby, to the elevator and going up, Cormac led her to the door of the room.
A beep sounded as he unlocked the door.
“What the hell are you doing? I need to go back, Samuel’s injury is still not healed, I should be there with him…”
Damn it!
Before she could finish her sentence, Cormac pulled her into the room and closed the door behind her.
Loredana heart trembled, beating loudly in her chest. She had seen him angry, but she had never seen him this angry.
The air in the room felt quiet and empty, just like the air before a violent storm. The deep voice that came from his chest felt the same, “Tell me, what is wrong with you?”
