Jane frowned, “What are you doing here?”
As soon as Jane saw Marco, her brows furrowed.
“I…” Marco’s voice choked up. Seeing the person he had been thinking about day and night in front of him, he couldn’t control his emotions for a moment.
April’s expression turned cold. She bent down and dodged the hand that Marco reached out to her.
“Mr. Gibson, please behave yourself.” April barely raised an eyebrow.
Seeing April’s heartless attitude like this, it was as if ten thousand knives were stabbing into Marco’s heart.
“April… don’t be like this.”
“It’s you who shouldn’t be like this!” April threw these words at him before walking over to Jane and taking her hand. “We’re going shopping now. Don’t bother us unless it’s necessary.”
But soon they were stopped by Marco from behind them.
However, April didn’t even raise an eyebrow and continued walking with big strides without slowing down at all.
“Wait!”
Marco caught up with them and stood in front of them blocking their path.
“April, listen to me,” said Marco pleadingly while putting his arm around her shoulder with a remorseful look on his face.
“You… let go…” April felt annoyed but wanted to shake off his arm; however, Marco became more emotional.
“Just give me one more chance! I really know I was wrong last time; I’m trying hard to repent myself.”
Some passersby heard Marco’s words and gathered around, but Marco paid no attention and continued to hold onto April, asking her to forgive him.
Jane saw that the situation was not good and quickly instructed the bodyguards to disperse the onlookers. If April were to be recognized by someone, it could damage her career.
“Make way, make way.”
Several burly bodyguards stood in front of the crowd, preventing them from getting a clear look at April’s appearance.
“Marco, step aside.”
Jane frowned and shouted, “April is a celebrity. What do you mean by causing a scene like this on the street?”
Upon hearing this, Marco began to restrain himself.
If he jeopardized April’s career for his momentary selfish desire, she would probably never forgive him.
When Marco let go of her, April breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, Jane led the two of them to a private room in the mall, and instantly, the surrounding air quieted down.
Without the disturbance of the onlookers, only the three of them remained in the room.
“You two talk it out. I’ll wait outside,” Jane said, realizing she was unnecessary, but April grabbed her arm.
“No, Jane, don’t leave.”
April didn’t want Jane to leave. If she was left alone with Marco, she feared he would drive her insane.
“But you two…”
Jane pointed at the two people in front of her, hesitating for a moment.
“It’s okay.”
Marco smiled and then appeared vulnerable in front of April.
“I’ve thought a lot these past few days. It was indeed my fault that caused you so much suffering. I’m not worthy of being called a human!”
As he spoke, Marco slapped himself hard in the face.
“What are you doing?!”
April widened her eyes, shocked by Marco’s actions.
“If I don’t punish myself a little, let alone you forgiving me, I won’t even be able to forgive myself.”
Seeing Marco like this, Jane couldn’t bear to watch.
Putting aside how Marco found them, it was evident that he had been silently protecting April all these days.
Although she didn’t support office romances, as it affected discipline in the company.
“Don’t do this.”
April bit her lip, unable to bear seeing Marco like this.
“You still care about me, don’t you?”
Suddenly, Marco’s eyes lit up. He grabbed April’s arm, and his emotions started to escalate.
“What are you doing?!”
April became anxious again, and Marco realized his behavior was inappropriate and quickly let go of her.
“Sorry, I… I didn’t mean to do that.”
He lowered his gaze slightly, looking at the woman in front of him, his beloved woman, and opened his mouth.
“You’ve been on my mind all this time, April. I really miss you and hope you can forgive me.”
Whenever Marco paused from work, he couldn’t help but picture April’s cute and bashful face in his mind.
“I keep thinking, how nice it would be if I hadn’t done those despicable things.”
As he said this, April began to be moved.
Seeing Marco like this, even Jane was moved.
“April, I have never seen Mr. Gibson like this before.”
Upon hearing these words, Marco widened his eyes and looked at Jane beside him.
April blushed. Indeed, Marco had never been so concerned about any other celebrity before.
“Look, even Jane is moved. Can you, forgive me?” Marco swallowed his saliva, awaiting April’s answer.
“Well, considering how hard he’s been working these days, maybe you should think about it, April?” Jane raised an eyebrow, causing April to be momentarily speechless.
“I…,” April touched her nose in response to their words. “I won’t forgive you so easily!”
Upon hearing this, Marco’s face fell in disappointment.
“But…”
April raised an eyebrow again.
“But what?” Marco saw an opportunity and his eyes sparkled.
“If you can meet my conditions, then I can consider it!” April said.
Upon hearing this, Marco’s hands began to tremble slightly.
“What conditions?” he asked.
April pondered with her head down for a while and then said, “If, in the next three months, you can thoroughly understand me, bring me breakfast every day, know my preferences, and understand my inner character…”
Before April could finish, Marco eagerly agreed.
“Of course, I can do that!”
April smiled. “Why are you in such a hurry? I still have a request.”
Seeing the two of them in this state, Jane couldn’t help but smile on the side.
It seemed that April really had a good grasp on Marco.
“In the end, I will have an ultimate test. If you can pass all the previous tests, then you will trigger the conditions for the ultimate test!” April said.
Upon hearing that he had a chance, Marco quickly agreed.
“Okay, I will definitely be able to do it.”
The several of them smiled at each other and exchanged a few more words. Then, April hurriedly took Jane’s hand and left, using the excuse that she couldn’t give Marco too many hints.
