The Substitute Bride Doted by My billionaire Husband

Chapter 668: Storm Across the City

However, Marcus knew where Alpha’s weakness lay, and he quickly said, “Alpha, it’s been so many years. You can have any woman you want. Why are you still clinging to Anabelle? Anabelle has never liked you, not even a bit. Everything you do is just wishful thinking”

Butler Paulo on the side gazed coldly at Marcus. In fact, he was already quite nervous. Working in the Augustine family for so many years, he knew that the only thing that could make his master lose control was Madam Anabelle. The thorn that had been stuck in his heart all this time was the fact that Madam Anabelle had never liked him, not once.

Butler Paulo cautiously observed Alpha’s expression. In truth, there was no emotional fluctuation on Alpha’s face. He stretched his long legs and sat on the sofa in the living room, then leisurely took out a cigar and lit it with a lighter.

The crimson flame danced as Alpha took a deep drag from the cigar. He tilted his head slightly to exhale the smoke from his mouth, then pointed to Marcus’s right leg with the cigar between his fingers, casually asking. “Oh, I see your right leg has healed?”

As he made this gesture, some ash fell, exuding a strong masculine aura.

Alpha was responsible for ruining his right leg!

For more than thirty years, ever since the night he had caught Alpha and Anabelle outside the Midas residence, he had been unable to sleep. He deeply loved Anabelle and didn’t want her to marry someone else.

However, he also understood that both the most prominent figure in the capital’s business world, Alpha, and the captivating Anabelle of the distinguished Midas Family were beyond his reach.

He felt tortured every minute and second, experiencing pain, resentment, jealousy… these emotions drove him to madness.
