"Give me back my kid, who the hell do you think you are to take him away!" The woman rushed over, trying to stop the man, but she was too weak to do anything.
The little boy was crying in fear, "Mama, I want mama."
The man said, "Stop calling for your useless mother."
This was someone else's family drama. The staff didn't want to interfere but they were really pissed at the man. Unexpectedly, the man's way was blocked by a tall figure. Before he could see who was blocking his path, he rudely said, "Get lost!"
Marcus said, "Give the kid back to the lady!"
His voice was neither loud nor soft, but his strong aura made his words intimidating enough.
The man stepped back, "This is our business, what does it have to do with you? What's an outsider like you doing here?"
Seeing someone stepping in, the staff also wanted to lend a hand, "Sir, it's hard for your wife to take care of the kid alone, can't you be a bit more understanding?"
The man looked at Marcus, then at the pleading staff, and then angrily said, "I'm out there busting my ass making money, and you're at home spending it on other men."
Marcus didn't want to waste time arguing, he directly handed the boy over to the woman, "Why would you want to stay with a man like this?"
The woman clung to her child, looking as anxious as if she had just recovered a lost treasure, "I don't want people to say my child doesn't have a father."
Marcus sneered, "With a shameless father like him, the kid might be better off fatherless. If you can't make it work, don't force it. You may think it's for the child's sake, but who knows how much trauma you're causing."
The man shouted, "Did you hear that? Not only did he seduce my wife, he's encouraging her to divorce! You all saw it, right? You're my witnesses!"
"What?" Cornelia, who had been quietly observing, couldn't help but laugh, "So it's not just pretty women who get slandered. Handsome men aren't safe either."
Cornelia stepped forward and wrapped her arms around Marcus, "Honey, you're with me all the time, when did you have the chance to seduce his wife?"
