Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 65

At this moment, Marvin and William came in. Seeing Marisa, Marvin smiled and said, "Happy birthday, mom!"

Marisa nodded her head in satisfaction as she held his hand.

"Uncle!" Emmalee sweetly called. Marvin nodded her head, "Emmalee is getting more and more beautiful. Look at you! You have become beautiful woman!"

"Uncle, you are too kind!" Emmalee looked bashful.

"Mom, let's go. It's about time!" Marvin said and made Shania a sign. Shania came over and smiled as she helped Marisa to the dining hall.

"Where's Mr. Charles?" Only then did Marvin see me. He looked around and didn't see Mr. Charles, and his smile faded in an instant. I was silent as if I didn't hear him.

Marvin was afraid of him Kieran even when in his absence. In the end, he softened his expression and said, "Rachael, go in with them. The guests are coming soon!"

I did not get up immediately, but sat for a long time before standing up and going to the dining hall.

Marisa's birthday used to be celebrated in the restaurant. But this year, it was at home. There were nearly 40 to 50 tables in the large dining hall.

Marisa and the others sat around the table at the front, immersed in their familial joy. When I saw them, I felt extremely disgusted. I picked a table in the corner and sat down alone. Marvin's friends, no, business partners, went in in twos and threes. Very quickly, all tables were full except the table I was sitting at, where I was the only one.

"Mr. Redford!"

"Mr. Redford!" Suddenly, the guests were in a commotion, and all of them were so shocked.

Marlon walked in with a serious expression. I suddenly froze. Marlon was in a dark blue suit, and it outlined his slender, perfect and noble figure. He was distinguished, cold, handsome, and impeccable.

"Marlon, you're here!" Alicia trotted towards Marlon, looking joyous and excited.

"Didn't I tell you to recuperate? What are you doing here?" Marlon caressed her head with a tender expression.

"Gosh, I've long heard that Mr. Redford and Miss Alicia are lovers, but I didn't expect them to be so loving!"

"That's right. Miss Alicia is so blessed. She actually has someone as noble as Mr. Redford as her boyfriend. This is a blessing that no one else can enjoy even if they have afterlives!" The guests all praised when they saw the scene.

Emmalee, who was on the main table, watched this scene with envy in her eyes. She wished that she could be Alicia so that she could be right under the limelight.

I sneered and closed my eyes. My hand unconsciously stroked my belly. I was also pregnant with his child, but his treatment to us differed greatly!

I didn't dare to look anymore. I was afraid that the baby would be sad!

'Honey, don't be sad, mommy will love you!'

Suddenly, Alicia held Marlon's hand affectionately and showed up in front of me. "Rachael, why are you here? I can't find you!" With Alicia's words, all the guests immediately cast their gazes over.

"Who is this?"

"She is sitting there alone. She must be an insignificant extended family member. She must have come for something. After all this is Marisa's birthday. How shameless!"

"Look, Miss Alicia asked her to sit together out of kindness, but she ignored her. Was she out of her mind? No wonder Marlon likes Alicia. She is an angel!" The guests were gossiping, but their voices were especially loud as if they were afraid that I couldn't hear them.

"Rachael, don't listen to them. Join us!" Alicia stretched out her hand.

I slapped her hand.

Alicia's face instantly turned red, and tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at me with grievances as if I had done something terrible to her.

"What are you doing?!" Marlon was enraged and protected Alicia, "Alicia, does it hurt?"

"I, I'm fine. Rachael may be in a bad mood!" Alicia's tears streamed down her cheeks as she grabbed Marlon's hand as if she was worried that Marlon would kill me.

I snorted coldly. Marlon glowered at me and took Alicia to the main table. "Alicia, stay away from her. What if you and the child are hurt?"

"I, I will be careful!" Alicia lowered her head, looking bashful and delighted.

"Is there something wrong with this woman? Miss Alicia treats her so well, yet she is so vicious!"

"I think it's more than being crazy. She must be evil by nature! How can she do that to Miss Alicia!" The guests started gossiping again. I just pretended not to hear them. I was immune to such words. Marvin only recognized Alicia as his daughter, so, reasonably, outsiders wouldn't know that he had another one. What was more, Alicia inherited her mother's acting talent, so she could win their hearts.

"What are you still doing here? Come here!" After a while, Marvin came over and brought me to the main table by force. I wanted to resist, but my strength was not as great as his. Marvin complained, "You sit there alone. When Mr. Charles comes, he'll think I've treated you badly!"

Hearing this, I scoffed. He would think I was ill-treated?

I stared coldly at Marvin and said, "Mr. Cornell, when did you treat me well?"

"What did you bastard say?" As soon as I finished speaking, Marisa raised her hand in rage and was about to hit me. Marvin stopped her, "Mom, don't be angry. There are so many people watching!"

"Grandma, don't be angry. Rachael is just in a bad mood!" Alicia snuggled up to Marlon while trying to comfort Marisa.

Kaliyah, Emmalee, and William were somewhat surprised. It was well-known that Marvin hated my guts. In fact, if it wasn't for Marvin's hatred, the outsiders wouldn't dare to express their feelings, and instead, they would flatter me. But today, Marvin suddenly changed his attitude and it amazed them.

"Marvin, why did you defend the bastard today?" William asked.

"That's right, this bastard treated Alicia so viciously just now and she knew that Alicia was pregnant! What if she hurt the baby?" Kaliyah said.

"Alicia is pregnant with Mr. Redford's child. The baby matters!" Ever since Marlon sat down, Emmalee's eyes were fixed on Marlon.

After all, Marlon was Alicia's husband, so Emmalee did not dare to make it too obvious because her entire family would rely on Alicia to climb the social ladder. If they provoked Alicia, they would go out for wool and come home shorn.

Marvin cleared her throat, "Rachael, you are my daughter. Naturally, I will be good to you. Rachael is also going to be engaged next Saturday!"

Shania sat beside Marvin, and she leaned over and whispered, "Darling, there are so many people here, I think it is better not to make it so clear. What if Mr. Charles can't come?"

Shania knew what Marvin was afraid of. She spoke very tactfully. Marvin's expression froze. Seeing that the sky was getting dark and Mr. Charles still hadn't come. What if...

Therefore, Marvin did not blame Shania for being too talkative. Shania and Alicia exchanged a glance. They smiled in tacit understanding, but this smile left no trace behind.
