Chapter 296: Avoiding him

Marcus heard a soft rapping knock at his door, his senses heightened, and a wave of tension washed over him. He rarely got visitors so he didn't know who it was. He approached the door cautiously, his expression grave. However, when he opened the door and saw Diana standing there, relief and concern washed over him.

"Diana, it's good to see you," he greeted, a bit dazed and wearily looking, as his eyes still looked downcast despite trying his best to look normal.

"How are you today, come in," he continued as he swung open his door to give her access to the plush apartment. Diana walked in cautiously, taking in the look on Marcus' face as she replied subconsciously. She noticed worry etched on Marcus' face and called him out on it.
