Marcus said, "Talk."
Zavier said," If you want to show your thanks, do it with actions. Where is Skyler now? How's her life going?"
Marcus replied, "I've told you, I have no idea where she is."
Zavier's voice suddenly turned cold, "You really have no clue where she is? If she gets into trouble, if something happens, I'll make Cornelia feel the same fear."
Marcus responded, "Zavier, I can't accept what you just said." He hung up, his eyes icy and terrifying behind his silver glasses.
Just as he was about to go back to his room, his phone rang again. It was Zavier. Marcus rejected the call outright. He called several times in a row, and finally, Marcus picked up.
Zavier said, "Marcus, I was out of line just now, I apologize."
Marcus responded, "I don't accept."
Zavier said, "Why are you doing this to me? It's you who hid my wife. You've messed up with me, and I just said something wrong. Why should I apologize?"
Marcus responded, "I didn't ask you to apologize!"
Zavier cursed, "Damn it!"
Marcus asked, "Zavier, what are your true feelings for Skyler?"
This time, Zavier didn't hesitate or try to hide his feelings, "I love her. I miss her all the time. I'm always hoping she can come back to me. Marcus, I really won't hurt Skyler again, can you give her back to me?"
Marcus replied, "You once hurt her in the name of love. She chose to abort your child, rather die than be with you."
