Chapter 178: Even If I Died, She Wouldn’t Care

I turned my head to look out the window, watching the city streets blur past. “No need to explain to me, I’m not interested in who she is.”

Marcus responded with a faint “hmm.” As he was about to say something, he turned away and coughed, covering his mouth with a handkerchief. The sound was harsh and wet in the confined space of the car.

I noticed and frowned, but didn’t ask anything. Something about that cough sounded wrong, more serious than a simple cold.

Marcus quickly regained his composure, tucking the handkerchief away. “Where are you staying? I’ll have Amber drop you off.”

I stared at the handkerchief clutched in his hand. There was something dark staining the white fabric.

I looked away and opened the door to get out of the car. The morning air felt crisp against my skin after the tension inside the vehicle.

I glanced back to see Marcus watching me with a faint smile on his face. His expression was unreadable, almost melancholy.

I pursed my lips and walked away without another word.
