Chapter 1464
Their mutual silence stemmed from their affection for each other; neither wanted to impose their burdens on the other.
Seeing Loraine’s comprehension, Marco was relieved. He smiled and said,
“You don’t want Mrs. Harvey to worry about you, and the same applies to her. She doesn’t confide in you, not because she
resents you. Do you understand?”
Loraine nodded, feeling emotionally steadier, though a trace of melancholy lingered. She pouted, appearing as though she was
sulking.
Eloise didn’t hold anything against her.
But Loraine was still self-reproachful for failing to spot the issues earlier and offer assistance.
“Had I returned sooner, things wouldn’t have deteriorated to this extent…”
Understanding her thoughts, Marco could only respond with a resigned smile before wrapping her in a gentle embrace.
“It’s okay. Even though Mrs. Harvey didn’t confide in you, we found out on our own, didn’t we? Now that we’re aware of her challenges, we’ll address them. I’m sure Mrs. Harvey will appreciate that.”
His tone was soothing, like that used to comfort a child. Despite herself, Loraine managed an awkward smile, conceding that her mood had improved.
He was right. The priority now wasn’t to berate herself, but to muster her strength and help Eloise resolve her issues!
Loraine’s eyes flashed with determination as she lifted her chin confidently. “You’re right. If I can’t sort this out, I won’t have the audacity to return and lead Universe Group as CEO!”

Initially, she had intended merely to visit Eloise. But having learned of Judie’s actions today, coupled with past grievances, she felt compelled to excise this malignant presence. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be worthy of the name Loraine!
A radiant smile blossomed in Marco’s eyes; he adored this formidable stance of his beloved, who reminded him of a dazzling sun.
The Loraine he knew was not one to easily admit defeat. It was only because Eloise’s predicament had briefly thrown her off balance. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Now that she had regained her footing, everything was in order.
Marco consoled Loraine, tenderly caressing her soft hair. “It’s Late, let’s get some sleep.”
Loraine nodded and accompanied Marco to freshen up. However, as they prepared for bed, she suddenly blushed, realizing
there was only one bed in the room.
Uh oh… It appeared as if Eloise had prepared only one bed for them?
However, Marco seemed unconcerned, heading straight for the bed.
Loraine felt a flurry of butterflies in her stomach. Were they genuinely going to share a bed?
She wasn’t ready yet!
Her gaze involuntarily followed Marco, and to her surprise, he bypassed the bed to open the bedside cabinet. From there, he
pulled out a fresh set of bedding, calmly spreading it on the floor.
