CHAPTER 102: YOU ARE NO LONGER ALONE

"Jade…" Marcus moved to her side and held her folded hands. The woman looked pretty troubled and Marcus wanted to give her the assurance that he'll try to understand whatever her reasons are. "I am never against the things that you want to do. All I want is your confidence to open up to me… whatever it is, I am willing to listen and will try to understand what you're going through." He voiced with sincerity.

The whole drive was a total silence and even when they arrived home, Jade was seemingly having a hard time telling him the real reason as to why she wanted to quit her job. 

She stared at his worried eyes then heaved a heavy sigh. 

"Haven't I told you about it before?" She was trying to think if she did mention it to him.

"I wouldn't ask if I remember."

"I…" She paused for a few seconds while searching the man's eyes. "I… I don't think you'll understand." She looked away and that disappoint him greatly.
