FreeNovelChapter 3064 Besides, Violette came from a more prestigious background and appeared simpler than Melissa.
Maybe Marcus hadn't even realized that.
Upon reaching his bedroom, Marcus gently placed Matthew on the bed, and Melissa suddenly wrapped her arms around him from behind.

Marcus’ body instantly stiffened at the unexpected touch, but he quickly recovered his composure and turned to pat Melissa's hand.
Even though Matthew had been laid in bed, he still was not fast asleep.
It seemed the quilt was too thick for him, so he kicked it off with his feet. When Marcus saw this, he bent down and took off the little boy's clothes, leaving him in only an underwear. Then he went to the cloakroom to fetch one of his T-shirts which he spread over Matthew's torso. Since the texture of the T-shirt was very soft, Matthew found it comforting and soon fell into sound sleep.
Marcus’ heart melted when he looked at his son's peaceful face.
After a while, he sat down on the edge of the bed with Melissa.
Her eyes were slightly moist with unshed tears.
Turning to Melissa, he touched her face gently and asked in a low voice, “Did Violette give you a hard time? What exactly did she tell you? Of course, Melissa would never tell Marcus what exactly had happened between herself and Violette.

If you meet Violette, please don't give her a hard time, okay?” Melissa knew for sure that if she had not run into Marcus by accident, Violette would most Likely have become Mrs. Fowler by now.
She really had no advantage over Violette except for the fact that she had met Marcus a few years earlier.
There was silence in the bedroom for a long time.
Eventually, Marcus smiled and said to Melissa, “You're beginning to boss me around when you haven't even become my wife, huh? You silly girll” Melissa blushed in embarrassment, but she could not refute his statement.
“Well, just stay here with Matthew then,” Marcus added after a long pause. “I'll send someone to bring you some food later. In an hour max, the guests should all be gone.” “Okay,” Melissa replied.
After giving Matthew a ki*s on the cheek, Marcus left the room and went downstairs.
When it was discovered that Marcus had reappeared in the party, everyone's attention shifted to him. James couldn't help but tease him, “Marcus, you're really something! Nobody could have expected that you've been hiding such a cute boy from us.” “You can say that again,” Marcus replied with a shrug. “I'll always defeat you in every aspect” “Humph! What a jerk!” James scoffed.
Coincidentally, a maid was walking past. Marcus stopped her and said something in a low voice. Without a word, the maid nodded in understanding and left.
