Memories Of The Night

Marcellus steps out of the car with his long legs and kindly pulls the door open for Katrina. "It"s impossible to get a taxi at this time. Get in, and I"ll give you a ride."

Suddenly seeing Marcellus appear in front of her, Katrina is stunned. "Marcellus, why haven"t you left?"

It"s been half an hour. She thought he"d be home by now, but for some reason, he"s still here.

Marcellus has a faint smile on his handsome face. "How could I go without seeing you get in a taxi?"

At Marcellus"s response, Katrina blushes a little and gets into his car.

Marcellus is quite the gentleman.

No wonder so many girls had a crush on him back when they were in school. Not only does he look handsome, but his family is also ill.u.s.trious, and he has a gentle disposition. Practically everyone likes him.

On the way to the Anderson house, Katrina feels vaguely uneasy.

When she returns to the house, she will see not only Uncle Anderson, but also Sophie, Samuel, and Aunt Green. Sophie sees her as her mortal enemy. Samuel is a free-spirited playboy who likes to leer at her and make unwanted advances towards her.

As for Aunt Green"s att.i.tude towards her, it"s a long story.

In front of Uncle Anderson, she will show concern to Katrina. But as soon as he leaves, she turns cold eyes on her. The two-faced behavior makes her feel uncomfortable every time as if she has something heavy sitting on her chest.

Although Katrina dreads the situation, she thinks of Uncle Anderson, who took her from the orphanage, raised her, and let her attend school. She"s received a lot of kindness from him and is infinitely grateful to him.

So even if Sophie, Samuel, and Aunt Green don"t treat her kindly, she will try to tolerate them in front of Uncle Anderson.

In a flash, Marcellus"s Porsche reaches the Anderson villa and parks in front of the entrance.

Samuel and Marcellus were cla.s.smates in junior high school. They had a good relations.h.i.+p. And Sophie has always been fond of Marcellus. She keeps finding ways to try and get close to him.

Marcellus is no stranger to the Anderson family.

But with the pa.s.sage of time, the business of the Anderson family has gotten bigger and bigger, and Samuel gradually became impetuous. He became a profligate. He lingers between women every day and refuses to grow up and change his ways.

Marcellus has always been a strict and disciplined person. As a result, his relations.h.i.+p with Samuel has become estranged.

As for Sophie …

After having known each other for years, Marcellus knows that he has no feelings for her. But he doesn"t want to say hurtful things to her either. Whenever he receives Sophie"s offer, he always keeps a certain distance from her, treats her as a common friend or a sister, and never gives her any ambiguous hints.

The only person in the whole Anderson family who has frequent contact with Marcellus is Katrina. But since Marcellus is not her boyfriend, there"s no reason for him to be at the Anderson villa. And he doesn"t want to intrude on their dinner either. As soon as he sees Katrina walk into the villa, he will leave.

Katrina unbuckles her seatbelt. "Thank you, Marcellus. I"ll go first. Be careful on your way back."

Marcellus smiles and nods gently. "Okay, remember our dinner tomorrow night. I"ll come to pick you up after work."

"I know," Katrina replies. She already stood Marcellus up today and she feels guilty about it. She"ll definitely go out with him tomorrow night.

Marcellus steps out of the car and is about to circle around to the pa.s.senger seat to open the door for Katrina, when a surprised female voice suddenly calls, "Marcellus!"

When Marcellus turns around, he sees a familiar red BMW sedan behind his car.

As soon as the car stops, Sophie gets out of the car and runs excitedly towards Marcellus.

"Marcellus, are you looking for me? Why didn"t you call before you came?" Her made-up face is full of happiness and surprise.

Sophie is always the one who takes the initiative with Marcellus. This is the first time that Marcellus came to their house.

At that moment, Sophie can"t be happier.

That afternoon, Sophie asked her best friend to go shopping with her to buy a cell phone.

The phone she wants is the latest model that got released today. The color she wants has also been selling well.

When she arrived at the mobile shop, the clerk told her that the last red phone was bought by a gentleman 15 minutes ago.

Sophie felt very lost in the news.

She couldn"t bear having the money but being unable to buy what she wanted. She managed to ask the clerk for the contact information of the customer who bought the last phone. She planned to pay a high price to get it back from him.

Sophie was stunned to see the familiar name and phone number.

Marcellus was the person who bought the last cell phone.

Why did he buy a girl"s cell phone?

Did he buy it as a gift?

Who was he going to give it to?

Marcellus has always been a serious man. He hasn"t had a girlfriend that she knows of.

While Sophie was a little confused, her best friend Cindy said, "Sophie, maybe Atty. Brook wants to buy you a birthday present?"

Sophie agreed.

After all, her birthday is coming up in a few days.

Marcellus has known her for so many years. He probably found out what to give her from her circle of friends. He must have bought the phone because he knew that she wanted it.

A smile appears on Sophie"s delicate face.

As a pampered daughter, the extremely high price of the mobile phone is nothing at all. If she wanted to, she could change four or five phones a month.

But a phone given to her by Marcellus is different. Because it"s a gift from him, she will cherish it forever.

Previously depressed because she couldn"t get the phone she wanted, Sophie suddenly cheered up and went to the salon to have her hair done with her best friend.

But before her hair was done, her dad called her and told her to come home for something important.

Despite her displeasure, Sophie finally drove back. She had no idea that a surprise would be waiting for her when she gets home.

Marcellus is here!

Is he here to give her the present?

Sophie sincerely believes that Marcellus purchased the mobile phone for her. She automatically a.s.sumes that Marcellus is at her family"s villa for her.

When Sophie speaks, Marcellus"s handsome face freezes.

He had planned to leave silently after seeing Katrina enter the door.

Unfortunately, Sophie catches him.
