A Moment in Destiny

Chapter 863 Bully

Silently, compassion stirred in his heart, and he suddenly had the urge to rub her into his body. But he didn't do anything!

He continued to irritate her, "Why are you crying? I'm not doing anything to you. If you cry and I don't do something about it, the others will think I'm bullying you! In order to substantiate this accusation, I'm going to molest you in the office!"

Rae was instantly stunned, her tears froze and stagnated in her eyes. A teardrop rolled inside her big eyes for a long time before rolling down her face as she looked at Marcel, who stood up and walked over, in a daze.

He was wearing a grey shirt today with a white trimmed collar and black buttons. The shirt was figure flattering, wrapping around his sturdy body. His waist was tightly cinched by a black belt that made him appear taller and set his figure off to advantage. His hair was short, but it made him look in good spirits; his angular, manly face was tinged with a touch of teasing and playfulness; his deep, dark pupils shone with a dazzling glow like the brightest stars of the night; his nose was as straight as a Greek sculpture, while his angular thin lips outlined the perfect curve.

Rae stared at Marcel's handsome face in shock. When he stopped in front of her, she suddenly held her breath, her heart pounded wildly and two shades of pink crept onto her cheeks. She immediately stood up and prepared to run away.

But the moment she was ready to leave, he had grabbed her slender waist and hooked her entire body over––

Rae instantly knocked into his sturdy arms, and she was so shocked that she exclaimed, "Ah––"

Marcel's hand suddenly covered her lips, stopping the sound she was about to let out.

He put on an evil smile, as if he was sure she wouldn't dare to speak up in the office.

With his hand still covering her lips, he leaned closer to her and whispered, "Rae, you're the most conflicted woman I've ever met. You usually act like you have a sense of justice, but at crunch time, you actually pull strings for yourself!"

Rae struggled, but he confined her to his arms.

Rae vaguely felt that he seemed to have an inexplicable hatred for her, and the grip on her waist was so strong that he seemed to want to break her waist.

She wriggled uncomfortably and tried to break away from him, "Let go of me!"

"Rae!" Marcel called out to her coldly and sneered, "Rae, a so-called prude like you who usually looks as decent as a spinster is actually a woman who is slutty, active and good at seducing men behind the scenes!"

Suddenly, he pushed her down forcefully, pinning her to the couch and leaving no room for her to move.

Rae fell backwards onto the couch after being pushed, and she stared in shock at Marcel's face full of disgust.

At this moment, Marcel was like a Satan from hell, his whole body radiating hostility.

Tears gradually welled up in Rae's bright eyes and she opened her mouth, but not a single word could come out.

She was shivering with anger, when had she become that kind of woman?

Marcel suddenly approached her lips, and his remarks were provocative. "Rae, I've never been unable to get what I want. When I tried to have a one-night stand with you before, you acted like a woman who would rather die than defend your chastity. So why are you so indulgent with Raphael? Is he able to meet your demands? Is he able to satisfy you? You think you're a goody two-shoes?"

Rae bit her lips tightly and Marcel's words made her feel humiliated. At the same time, she also felt that Marcel sounded like a jealous man, like a husband whose wife had cheated on him, but she couldn't accept his insult to her.

Her delicate red lips turned miserably pale, her long eyelashes stained with a thin layer of water mist, staring blankly at the man in front of her.

How could she not let men feel compassion for her with such a vulnerable look?

But Marcel was even more annoyed, was she acting pathetic?

This wasn't the way she just lied, her stubborn look was tougher and more strong-willed than a martyr!

Now, she was acting like a goody two-shoes again!

Marcel flew into a rage. Did she think he wouldn't humiliate her if she cried like that?

He wanted to upset her, and he looked forward to watching this beautiful woman suffer an emotional breakdown and disgrace!

Marcel lowered his head and kissed Rae's lips rudely.

Rae was kissed and humiliated. She immediately fought back, but before she could open her mouth, he had already bitten her lips.

"Ah––"

There was blood dripping down her lips and she felt the pain on her lips, which hurt so much that her scalp went numb. Finally, she stopped being silent and raised her hand to slap Marcel across the face.

"Slap––" A crisp slapping sound rang out in the office.

Both of them froze. After pausing for a moment, Marcel confined her hands behind her back and lowered his head again, biting her lips fiercely.

This kiss was so deep that it reached Rae's throat and she couldn't breathe.

Marcel kept kissing Rae, with blood, with punishment. It wasn't until Rae's body softened from stiffness and stopped struggling that he released her violently. He curved the corners of his lips into a beautiful, evil curve. "Rae, I'm giving you one last chance. You should know what to do, or else, get out of the police station."

Ouch, her mouth hurt so much!

Rae looked at Marcel, who had a slap mark on his face that she had just given him!

She stood up, wiped the traces from the corner of her mouth, stared at him, and said coldly, "Marcel, I was wrong about you. You've gone too far in bullying people! You're the one who doesn't distinguish between public and private interests! You have no right to demand me! I don't care if I get fired, I can still live after I leave the police station!"

"It's anyone's guess!" Marcel wasn't afraid of her threats at all, "I heard that your relationship with the Baxters is strained, do you think you can be the heir to the Baxter family now? It seems that Leonard has already found another heir and will announce him the next day!"

Rae was stunned instantly, had Leonard really found a new heir?

Originally, Rae was the only child of the Baxter family, and Rae wondered why Leonard only had one daughter. When she returned to the Baxter family, Leonard had said that he wanted her to inherit the estate of the Baxter family, but Rae didn't treat him well at that time. Maybe as time went on, Leonard was really disappointed and chose the heir again? But how did Marcel know about this?

"You investigated me?" Rae questioned in a cold voice.

"Yes!" Marcel answered bluntly. He touched his face, which was already swollen and had a clear slap mark. It could be seen how hard Rae had slapped him just now. This little woman actually dared to slap him, it seemed that he really couldn't let her go!

"You're despicable!" Rae couldn't help but curse.

"Humph!" Marcel smiled playfully, "I can be open and above board, but I can also be unscrupulous. Both of these go hand in hand to achieve some of my purposes! And you, aren't you too?"

As he said this, his eyes looked sharply at Rae, and the contempt in his eyes made Rae almost think he had discovered her identity!

"Don't be pretentious and think you're noble when you do something villainous in the name of a gentlewoman! Rae, you're nothing!" Marcel's words were harsh.

Rae's face was on fire, and she just felt that what he said was wrong, but she couldn't refute it!

And how could she be innocent and flawless?

She lowered her head, turned around and left, not intending to say another word to Marcel.

Behind her, Marcel's deep male voice came into her ears. "Raphael is definitely not as saintly as you think, and he's not an open and honest gentleman!"

"But he's definitely not a hypocrite like you!" Standing in the doorway with her back to Marcel, Rae said word by word, "I used to think that Marcel was the most serious and professional police officer in this world, but I never thought that you're not qualified at all!!"

"Used to think?" Marcel chewed on the words behind Rae. "I'm definitely a more professional cop than you are now. Rae, you're a cop who can't separate public from private, and you'll never be a good cop! You can't do anything well!"

Was the label he put on her going too far?

Rae finally couldn't tolerate it anymore and turned around, glaring fiercely at Marcel and threatening, "Don't think that you, as an outside commander with a few connections, can decide my life arbitrarily like this. I'm not threatened by you, if you force me, I tell you, even a docile rabbit will bite when it's anxious!"

"You're not a rabbit, you're a wolf! The wolf that can't be fed!" Marcel was defining her!

Rae was shivering with anger again!

How could he be like this? He wasn't Prince Charming; he was a devil! Marcel was a devil!

Marcel enjoyed her out-of-control and disappointed look, and his mouth kept beaming with a smile at the corners. Suddenly, a wicked thought flashed through his mind and he said, "And you're a she-wolf! I look forward to taming you, a little she-wolf!"

Rae's body jerked for a moment. These words, surprisingly, were like a boulder smashing into her heart and resulting in a strange reaction!

"Tell me what you've said with Raphael or I'll tell the chief that you've concealed it privately. By then, you'll be prosecuted!" This threat was definitely influential enough.

In an instant, Rae was furious to the core, gritting her teeth and shivering. "Marcel!"

Marcel suddenly burst out into laughter, "Uh! You're pissed off. You look pretty cute when you're angry!"

Rae turned and left resolutely, slamming the door of Marcel's office heavily.

In the room, Marcel's smile froze instantly and turned into a frosty expression.

Rae hid in the washroom, locked herself in and sobbed.

After crying for a long time, she composed herself and went back to the office.

She didn't do anything, didn't leave the office, didn't work, and just sat there in a daze!

The whole afternoon, no one came to her, and she didn't know how the case was progressing! By the end of the day, she bumped into Gustavo and asked him, "Gustavo, how is the case going?"

Gustavo saw her eyes, which were red and swollen, so he frowned and said in concern, "Rae, did you cry?"

Rae was a little embarrassed and immediately shook her head, "No, I have a problem with my eyes!"

Gustavo looked at her, he was a forensic scientist and he could find evidence by dissecting a corpse, but he wasn't going to expose Rae! He looked at her with a complicated look, and after a long time, he said, "Rae, did you offend our captain?"

Rae opened her mouth wide at once, with confusion in her eyes, did Marcel talk to everyone?

"Captain Hopkins don't allow us to tell you the progress of the case! When I asked him why, he said that's a disciplinary requirement, but what's going on with you two?" Gustavo was puzzled.

Rae understood something at once. Instead of rushing to take action against her, he had isolated her. What a despicable hypocrite!

"I got it!" Rae nodded and asked again, "Has Mathew been remanded custody?"

Gustavo looked at her, "Rae, I'm sorry, I can't tell you anything!"

Rae froze for a moment as she looked into Gustavo's eyes with a complicated look.

Gustavo was very helpless, clenched his teeth and made up his mind to tell Rae, "Rae, Mathew––"

But at that moment, Marcel's voice rang out from the door of the office and interrupted Gustavo. "Gustavo, you have a new assignment! Get back to work now!"

Gustavo's words stuck on the tip of his tongue, and he responded immediately when he came back to his senses. "I'm coming, Captain!"

Gustavo gave Rae an apologetic look and turned to leave.

Rae turned her head to look at Marcel, who was looking at her with a chilling glint under her eyes.

The air surrounding them seemed to freeze at this moment, and his eyes flickered with light, making them incomprehensible.

Fortunately, there was no one around and they were the only ones left in the spacious room. The atmosphere dropped to a freezing point. Marcel didn't even approach her and just stared at her with his gloomy eyes, but her whole body trembled and she had felt his indifference. Nevertheless, she still kept her back straight.

For a long time, he didn't say anything. Rae bit her lips tightly and her face turned slightly pale. Then, she didn't know where she got the courage to say, "What do you really want?"

Marcel ignored the vigilance and anger in her eyes, walked up to her and looked at her condescendingly.

Rae bit her lips stubbornly with a layer of mist in her eyes. Marcel squinted at the tears in her eyes and sneered. "Are you scared? Aren't you very bold? Why don't you call Raphael to endue you with courage!"

Rae closed her eyes weakly to keep her tears from falling, and she suddenly whispered, "Marcel, you shouldn't be like this!"

"Then what should I be?" He interrupted her gruffly.

"You don't look like a commander now, but like a husband who caught his wife cheating on him. What exactly are you insulting me for? And also, Raphael? I'm not anyone of yours! You look like you're jealous!" Rae plucked up the courage to say her real thoughts, she was ready to risk everything!

Hearing these words, jealous? Marcel's heart became unexpectedly irritable for no reason. The words he said were even more harsh and even with a sharp humiliation. "Don't blow your own trumpet, do you think you're a godlike beauty? How could I be jealous of you?"

Rae put on a faint, bitter smile, "I thought you did, and you behaved like this!"

A strange smile appeared on Marcel's face as he looked into Rae's eyes. "Oh, your smugness is funny! Well, but I don't agree, I thought it's possessive!"

The corner of Rae's mouth wore a miserable smile as she said the same thing, "What do you want?"

Marcel's eyes were cold as he gazed at her, "Be my live-in partner!"

"That's not possible!"

"Ha!" Marcel coughed softly, his eyes filled with contempt and his throat seemed to be letting out a laugh. "Pretending to be a chaste woman again! Others don't know your true nature, don't I? You're just playing hard to get, being two-timing!" Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
