The President's Accidental Wife novel Chapter 79

"Bring me there."

The dormitory was only ten minutes' walk from the office. She knocked on the door and entered upon hearing a response. "Hey, Ronald."

A man looked up from the document. "I didn't expect you to be here so soon."

"I should have reported in yesterday. I am a day late-i n case you didn't know." Raine sat down on the settee.

Ronald Valentine, Raine's elder brother, was middle-aged, but still good-looking, as his body was still in good shape. 1

"Is everything all right at home?" Ronald asked.

"Since you are so curious, why don't you go home to see for yourself?" Rained said.

He sat down opposite Raine and took a sip of coffee. "I am busy as hell with a factory coming up here in Grudin North. There is just no time."

His hand holding the coffee cup froze for a second, as i f something came to his mind. “Do you know Mark is married?"

She tightened her grip on her coffee cup but kept a calm face. "I know. Why?"

"Have you completely let go of Mark?" “Come on, I am engaged, and he is married. It doesn’t make much sense to talk about this now."

"It is not about making sense or not. I am asking you if you are sure about yourself. Will you regret it later because of what you are doing now?"

Raine gently blew on the coffee, watching the froth floating on the coffee. "Didn't you vehemently oppose me and Mark to be together back then?"

"That was yesteryears. Now I have seen too much and thought through so many things. Since you and Mark have no blood relationship, there is no moral issue for you two to be together."

"Don’t you think you are telling me this too late? When I told you about this, you strongly opposed it and threatened to disown me. Have you forgotten all this, Ronald?"

She would never forget what happened.

And so, from then on, she would only be Mark's aunt and nothing else.

But just when she had succumbed to fate and calmed down at last, he brought this up. It opened old wounds and added salt to injury.

Ronald looked at her. "You have always been smart, but why are you so dumb—you lost your mind at just the mention of Mark this time?"

She clenched her hands into fists on her sides and tried to regulate her breathing. "Just get straight to the point, Roland. I can't guess what you are trying to tell _ _ n me.

She could not deny that Ronald’s last sentence had hit her soft spot.

"If this is the case, then I will be frank with you. I won’t interfere in your relationship with Mark again, n o matter what happens. Get it?"

Raine's expression abruptly changed. She looked at him. "Do you know what you are talking about now, Ronald?"
