Chapter 1737

The manager had apologized repeatedly on Marlowe’s behalf, but Mr.

Barker remained adamant.

He even threatened that if the manager kept speaking, he would hold him accountable for the compensation as well.

Realizing the peril of getting further involved, the manager quickly changed his stance.

In a hasty decision, he assured Mr.

Barker that Marlowe would sleep with him.

“I never agreed to that!” Marlowe looked at the manager, her eyes wide with anxiety.

But before she could protest further, the manager roughly pushed her toward Mr.

Barker.

Mr.

Barker exchanged a knowing look with the manager, his smile smug and satisfied.

With a dismissive wave, he signaled the manager to leave.

“Enjoy your evening,” the manager said before leaving in a hurry, deliberately turning a deaf ear to Marlowe’s desperate pleas.

As the manager’s footsteps faded away, Marlowe felt helpless.

Tears streamed down her face, her vulnerability only deepening Mr.

Barker’s interest in her.
