Chapter 0326

Marcus love for his wife was well-known throughout the city. But because of Lucia's miscarriage, the two of them were currently at odds against each other. So, how could Marcus possibly be willing to let Pete off the hook? Pete had ruined his family and his business. Even if Pete was Marcus' biological brother, it would be hard for Pete to get out of the situation unscathed. Not to mention, the Goodwins were also out for his head. Just the thought of Pete was enough to fill my whole heart with guilt. The guilt was so strong that my heart hurt.

Karen sneered. "Are people's lives so worthless these days? I can't believe they're people being so eager to talk about their death."

Lucia also said, "Ariana, I don't know why you and Pete insist on working against Marcus, but he would never hurt anyone."
