Chapter 83
Pearl’s diagnosis was correct. Marc seemed to be severely injured, but they were all superficial wounds.
Although Quentin was ruthless, he held back this time. It was true that Quentin helped Pearl take revenge, but he was also afraid of Males Group. Even if it was just a superficial wound, Mare might not let it go.
She hated Quentin for taking matters into his own hands. She was a person who hated trouble the most, but he still wanted to cause trouble for her. Did be think that her life after returning to Nanston was too easy!
However, what puzzled her the most was still Marc
He was not weak. No matter how powerful Quentin’s men were, they could not defeat a special operations police officer. How could he be beaten up so badly?
Pearl stood by the bed with her arms crossed and looked at Marc quietly with a frozen expression.
Marc had already woken up. He had even changed into a hospital gown. His head was wrapped in white bandages, and his face was as white as a sheet. A few hours ago, he was still a hot–headed man who could argue with her, but now, he had become a sick beauty.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Marc felt inexplicably guilty under Pearl’s gaze. “I look especially miserable like this, right?”
Pearl said coldly. “Don’t worry. No matter how miserable you look, it can’t compare to when you had paraplegia three years ago.” Marc could not help but cough. It was like a sword had pierced his heart.
Lucas felt pity for Marc. He went over and patted Mare’s back while rebuking Pearl unhappily, “Pearl, he’s still injured. Don’t provoke him. Can’t you say something nice?”
Pearl did not respond to Lucas and simply said, “I will give you an explanation for what happened today. But at the same time, you an explanation.”

to give me
She looked deeply at Mare before turning to Lucas and saying. “Take good care of him. 111 come back tomorrow. I won’t disturb you two gays tonight”
Mare was speechless
Lucas was at a loss for words as well.
They watched as Pearl left. They then exchanged a glance and saw the disdain in each other’s eyes. They immediately let go of each other.
Lucas looked worried. “She doesn’t think that we have that kind of relationship, does she?”
He stretched out his finger and bent it
Marc rolled his eyes at Lucas. Tm definitely not gay, but I don’t know about you.
“Fuck you! I’m straight!”
Lucas‘ aura was not strong enough, so he had to raise his voice and straighten his back. Marc could not be bothered with Lucas. He clutched his chest and could not help but cough again, though it was a light cough.
“Does it hurt that bad? Seeing that Marc was not feeling well, Lucas stopped making a fuss and looked at him worriedly. “Ever since the car accident, your body hasn’t been as strong as before. The thugs wouldn’t have been able to hurt you in the past.”
Marc uid calmly, “I only took two hits. It’s not that serious”
“You have bruises everywhere, and yet you say it isn’t serious?”
Lucas reached out and poked the bruise on Marc’s cheek. It hurt so much that Marc frowned. He hissed and glared at him.
“Say, do you know who hit your Lucas asked suddenly.
Marc looked up at him. “Why do you any that?
Lucas neered. “You can fool others, but you can’t fool me. Although you’re not a person who causes trouble, if someone comes knocking on your door, you won’t hide. No matter how I look at it, you asked for it today.”
Thomas told Lucas everything that had happened in detail Lucas felt that it was abnormal no matter how he thought about it. Firstly, a CEO who

valued time suddenly turned into a sentimental young man and took a stroll down the road. Secondly, Marc did not let Thomas and his bodyguards follow him. Thirdly, Mare walked deep into the alley even though it might be dangerous
They were both from the military, and Mare had a special identity. No one knew better than Lucas how vigilant Marc was. Even if Marc was tricked by someone and covered with a sack, he would still be able to defend himself
That was unless Marc knew that there was a trap in front of him, but he walked into it deliberately. He knew that there was a tiger in the mountain, but he sull chose to go into the mountain.
Marc looked up lazily. “Why would I go looking for a beating! For fun?”
“Of course, you wouldn’t do such a stupid thing normally, but it’s not necessarily the case in a special situation. I heard that tonight, you were rejected by Pearl again.”
Lucas had a gloating expression on his face. When people are at their wits end, they will sink their boats and fight to the death. This trick of yours is called playing a victim. I’ve played it before and Tim quite familiar with it.”
Mare said calmly. “The pot is calling the kettle black”
“I was right!”
When Lucas heard what Marc said, he immediately lost his cool. “Are you stupid? In order to win back Pearl’s heart, you went all out! Aren’t you afraid that you’ll be beaten to death?”
Mare said disdainfully. “Those small fries can’t take my life.”

Looking at Marc’s bruised face. Lucas sighed and shook his head. “Sure enough, even the smartest man will lose his intelligence when he m enemy”
Enemy…
Marc pondered over this word and felt that it was extremely appropriate to describe Pearl that way.
Whether it was when he found out that Pearl had a crush on him for ten years or when he realized that he had fallen in love with Pearl, it overturned his understanding of relationships. He used to think that relationships were companionship and that there were no so–called uncontrollable feelings. Those were all the imaginations of sour poets.
However, after experiencing it for himself, he knew how helpless it felt to be in love.
After Marc woke up, the police sent someone over to record the victim’s statement. Unexpectedly, Marc said that it was just a misunderstanding and that it was nothing serious, after which he canceled the report.
After sending the police away. Lucas stated to Mare, “You know who hit you.”
Marc said, “It’s not hard to guess”
Lucas frowned. Suddenly, be remembered that Pearl had said that she would give Marc an explanation. Realization hit Lucas, and he asked, “Was it Quentin
Marc narrowed his eyes. “I think so.”

Hubert stopped Pearl along the way. “Alright, alright, Pearl. It’s not a big deal Calm down. Don’t be angry…
“Get out of the way Pearl’s face was ashen as she kicked open the door of the private room. Many women were having fun with Quentin inside. When the door was kicked open just like that, everyone was shocked and the lively atmosphere fell silent.

Hubert rubbed his temples and waved his hand to dismiss the girls. As he closed the door, he said. “Let’s talk it out Don’t use violence.
As soon as he finished speaking, Pearl raised her fast and punched Quentin
