The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 439

At the scene, only Martin, Louis, Marian, and a few of the Frost family members remained.

Martin's previously protective demeanor towards Marian had completely vanished, and now he just looked at her coldly.

Suddenly feeling scared, Marian tentatively called out to him, "Martin."

To her shock, this call of "Martin" was met with a fierce slap from him. Marian's face turned to one side from the impact, and she looked at Martin in disbelief.

Louis quickly stepped forward.

"What the hell are you doing?" Louis said as he pulled Marian to his side, "She's your sister."

"If she's my sister, she needs to be taught a lesson even more!" Martin, still fuming, pointed at Marian, "I don't have a sister like her."

Marian sniffled, choking back tears and not daring to make a sound.

"You still have the nerve to cry?" Martin glared at her, his face dark with anger, "In front of everyone, you dared to twist the truth to suit yourself, and even tried to drag the whole Frost family down with you. I think you not only lack brains but also refuse to learn from your mistakes! How can our family have someone like you?"

"I'm sorry." Marian sobbed, apologizing repeatedly, "I was really too scared."

"Don't make excuses for yourself!" Martin cut her off coldly, "If I had known you'd turn out like this, I should never have brought you back in the first place. It would have been better if you'd been left for dead."

Marian bit her lip, crying even harder, her breaths short and uneven, trying not to sob loudly, but failing to hold it in.
