Chapter 1519
Marcus collected his thoughts, abandoning his initial plan to get out of bed and
close the window himself. In a calm and soft voice, he asked, “Would you mind
closing the window? It gets rather chilly during the dark nights, and the child
might catch a cold.”
There was a long pause before the figure sitting in the shadow of a chair within
the room finally stirred. She got up, closed the window, and then returned to her
seat.
It was hard to tell how long she had been sitting there, but through the silhouette
that was briefly outlined when she closed the window and the flowing hair that
was visible even in the dim light, it was clear that she was a woman.
The wind had stopped, and the room didn’t feel as cold anymore.
Marcus, with his limited mobility, didn’t get out of bed. He simply propped himself
up against the headboard.
He glanced at his son, who was still sound asleep beside him, covered him with
a blanket, and then turned his gaze back to the figure in the darkness. “If I'm not
mistaken, you must be the famed Miss Ellinor, aren't you?”.
Famed?
Ellinor sat in her chair, appearing calm, but only she knew how icy cold she felt
inside. She let out a dry laugh.
“Yes,” she said. “Even though you've lost your memory, you're still as composed
as you were three years ago. You found an intruder in your room in the middle of
the night, and yet you still asked her to close the window for you?”
Marcus replied indifferently, “I had no choice. My body wouldn't allow it. If I could,
I would have done so myself.”
Ellinor’s serene eyes bore into him through the darkness. Although she could
only make out his vague silhouette, her gaze still pierced his heart.
“Aren't you curious why I'm here?” She asked.
Marcus smirked, his tone indifferent. “I'm not curious, but I think you shouldn't
have come.”
Ellinor was silent for a while before she stood up and walked towards him. Her
steps were slow, devoid of any emotions, but as she reached the bedside, she
suddenly reached out and grabbed his throat.
She squeezed hard, showing no mercy.
“Seeing you so indifferent makes me want to strangle you to death!” She spat.
He was forced to look up at her, and under the moonlight, he could finally see her
face clearly.
There was a flicker of familiarity, but it was faint.
However, he could clearly see the burning hatred in her eyes.
She squeezed his throat, cutting off his air supply, but he didn’t fight back or
make a sound. He simply let her be.
Eventually, Ellinor let go, grinding her teeth as she muttered, “You bastard! I
should have never trusted you!”

He raised an eyebrow. “And yet, we have a child together?”
Ellinor’s face darkened. “You think I wanted this? The child was unexpected. I
was never interested in you, an old man.”
Marcus stared at her for a moment. “So, you became interested in me later?”
Ellinor fell silent.

Marcus chuckled. “Anyway, this isn't

Ellinor paused, glancing at the sleeping child on the bed. “Why aren't you
sleeping in the same room as Sophia?”
“Is that what you want?”
