NovelOnlineMarco's heart sank.
It be him?
Marco's expression was dark. He watched as Loraine and that man both walked into the apartment together. His
temples throbbed, and his knuckles were pale from how tightly clenched his fists to stop himself from rushing in.
The issue with Wesley had taught him to not be impulsive and always wait to figure out the truth of a situation.
He didn’t want any more misunderstandings, and he didn’t want to be on bad terms with the people close to
Loraine.
Marco shut his eyes and breathed in deeply. When he reopened them, his gaze was as cold as ice.

He pulled out his phone and dialed a number.
The phone rang several times before the line connected.
It was noisy on the other end, and it took a while before the noise faded.
Jimmie leaned on the corridor wall and said in a relaxed tone, “Getting a call from you is very rare. So what is it?

Marco could hear people calling for Jimmie in the background.
For a while, Marco did not say anything. Then he said, “There is a man in Loraine’s apartment.”
“What? Don’t go acting without thinking now. Find out who he is first.
Don’t make another mistake.”
“What? Rowan Torres?” Jimmie’s tone was filled with surprise. You're certain?”
“Yes.” Marco nodded, massaging the space between his eyebrows. “You said that he might Loraine’s family,
right?”
Jimmie smiled wryly as he replied, “Yes. But | haven't been able to find any connection between the them apart
from the fact that they share the slast name. I've never heard about him being a Torres.

Everyone is aware he got his position with his achievements on the battlefields. He wouldn't have to work so
hard to make it if he was a
Torres.”
Marco's face went dark.
A few minutes passed before he spoke again. “You are a lawyer with a lot of government connections. Help me
investigate him.”
Jimmie nodded his head immediately.
“Alright, Ill put my work aside and help you check it out.”
