Chapter 150 Isn't That Just Crazy?

Liastayed silent for a long time. Her complexion was pale, and it was hard to tell if she was sad or just completely stunned.

breakup.

A flicker of panic crossed Marcus' eyes, and he forced himself to smile casually as he explained, "Don't overthink it. I really do like you. Even though we haven't been dating for long, I've thought about our future. It's probably better if you don't know the reason for the "I'd like to stay friends, but... Well, that seems impossible. Don't be like this, okay? Take care of yourself."

Tears filled Lia's eyes. She had just wanted her boyfriend to meet her best friend, but now, she never expected to feel utterly embarrassed. Before she could blow up, Bella got angry first.

If you're breaking up with her, at least give her a clear reason! What's with this vague nonsense?

Marcus rubbed his face in frustration. "Fine. Since you're asiding, I won't hide it anymore. I didn't want to leave it hanging either. Someone warned me to stay away from you, and they also told me not to tell you that. This falls under the warning too, but I've already prepared for the worst

"Now, I've said everything I've needed to say:

want to. I won't stay for this meal. Your ex-boyfriend broke up with

"Yes, I can't handle the situation, and I'm the useless one here. You can call me a coward if you you just as mysteriously, Lia. Maybe you should consider who you've offended. I'll leave first." Lis finally burst into tears after Marcus drove away "who could I have offended? I must have upset God. If not, why do I keep running into these issues?" Bella handed her a tissue. "Don't cry. Let me think. It's true that Oscar also broke up with you out of nowhere. Even though he gave you a reason, it was so contradictory.

"Dominic mentioned there might be more to Oscar breaking up with you. Now that Marcus has done the same, you really should think about who you've crossed." Lia was still upset and couldn't calm down. Sniffing, she said, "How would I know? I'm just an ordinary person. What big shots could I have offended? Marcus comes from a wealthy family, and money rales everything these days! If it's even someone he couldn't handle, how could 1?

Bella also found it strange. Just hours ago, Marcus had been lovey-dovey with Lia, and now, he was breaking up with her without hesitation. What kind of person were they up against?

As Bella pondered about it, Lia suddenly had a thought. "What about Leonard? Does he count?

Bella frowned. "I don't think so? Even if he's a big shot, he wouldn't target a bannless woman like you, right? He wouldn't let something like that bother him. Besides, why would he keep interfering with your love life? Isn't that just crazy?"

Lia felt a bit defeated. "Who else could it be if it isn't him? He's the only big shot I've upset. Marcus must know who it is. He just doesn't want to tell me. I'll try asking him."

Having said that, Lia called Marcus Once he picked up, she got straight to the point, "Is it Leonard?"

There was a long pause on the other end before Marcus finally replied, "The person who warned me told me that I can't afford to mess with the Sawyer family. I don't know much more than that. If that's all, I'm hanging up now."

Once the call ended, Lia turned to Bella and cried, "It's Leonard! Marcus said it's the Sawyer family! Who else in Joville has that kind of power besides Leonard's family? He's the only one I've offended from that family!"

Bella was at a loss. One was her best friend, and the other was someone she had a bit of connection with. She didn't know what to do.

After taking a moment to gather her thoughts, she said, "Okay, let me call him and ask. Don't get too worked up, okay? What if there's been some land of misunderstanding?"
