A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 944 A Private Matter

Marcel walked out of the house with a gloomy face and went to his car.

He called someone and spoke into the phone, "Mr Newman, I am Marcel Hopkins, let's meet!"

Benjamin, who was slightly stunned on the other side, asked, "What is the matter that Captain Hopkins has to make an appointment with me personally?"

"Let's meet!" Marcel said without much explanation.

"Fine! Tell me the address!"

"YS Club!" Marcel said.

"No problem!" Benjamin agreed very quickly.

Within a short time, Marcel's car drove to YS Club.

In the bar, Marcel saw Benjamin, who seemed to have been there for a long time with a glass of brandy in his hand which he was only taking a sip. Benjamin just raised his eyebrows and he didn't even get up when he saw Marcel striding in.

The dim light didn't hide Marcel's aura, but rather made him release an indescribable coolness.

He walked across to the sofa where Benjamin was sitting and looked at him condescendingly with unfamiliar emotions tumbling under his eyes.

Benjamin just smiled at him playfully as he didn't seem to care about Marcel's arrival. "Please sit down, Captain!"

Marcel sat down opposite him and looked at him.

"What do you want to drink?" Benjamin asked.

"Nothing!" Marcel said as he didn't like drunk driving, moreover, he was alert to the things in the bar.

Benjamin shrugged his shoulders. "Such a stingy cop like you who comes to YS will definitely make it a loss! Alright, Captain Hopkins, what are you looking for?"

"A private matter!" Marcel said.

Benjamin raised his eyebrows again, "Hum? What is the personal matter? I wonder what kind of personal matter I have with Captain Hopkins?"

Marcel examined Benjamin, the man opposite him who was twenty-seven years old, two years younger than him, was actually the illegitimate son of his father, Nate and Martha Newman. It was also the proof of his father's betrayal of his mother!

It was only when Marcel investigated Benjamin's background the day before yesterday that he knew that this man was his half-brother!

Originally he didn't know that his name was Benjamin, he only knew that his mother's name was Martha and he had never checked the rest.

After checking, he found out that Benjamin had actually been in detention because of a fight and his father went to bail him out personally before sending him to England to study!

Looking at the person in front of him, Marcel spoke bluntly, "I think you have already known my identity! I also know that you are the illegitimate child of Nate and Martha! You're innocent, but you're the proof that Nate betrayed his wife and Martha interfered in other people's marriages!"

Benjamin frowned faintly upon hearing this. "Hah! You are a police officer but not a judge! And only a judge can convict people!"

Marcel smiled faintly. "It's not just the judge who can convict but there's also the words of the public! The judges only convict people who have violated the law but they can't bind people who are morally deficient! You're innocent, but you're about to be dragged into this vortex! I don't need to do anything to you as I believe you and your mother have been suffered and tortured by moral enough over the years, yet, you have had a hard time living in disarray, so there is no need for me to judge!"

Benjamin laughed lightly and seemed rather disdainful. "Just tell me your purpose directly!"

"Good!" Marcel liked people who made things direct and easy and Benjamin was very straightforward. He then spoke directly to him, "I hope you won't go back to the Hopkins Group when Nate wants you to do so!"

"Why?" Benjamin asked back unhurriedly.

Marcel smiled suddenly, "Because I am the largest shareholder of the Hopkins Group!"

Benjamin laughed along with him with extra pleasure, not knowing what Marcel had said that made him happy and after a long time, he smiled and said, "Hum, this is a good reason! But, why should I listen to you? I might not go if you hadn't come to me, but since you have talked to me today and I am eager to go instead!"

"I know you are a very rebellious person!" Marcel smiled faintly and seemed to be confident. "There is nothing much to say, take care!"

After saying, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Benjamin suddenly stood up and stopped his way, his eyes were sharp and peaceful that stared into Marcel's eyes and he said in a deep voice, "Make it clearly before you go, what do you come for? do you want me to go or not?"

Saying that he didn't want Benjamin to go to the Hopkins Group, but then saying that he knew he was a rebel, what exactly did Marcel mean?

Benjamin stared at him with cold eyes, not intending to let him go.

"The literal meaning!" Marcel wasn't going to make any further explanation.

"Do you actually want me to go?" Benjamin asked uncertainly.

Without further explanation, Marcel crossed over him, went around from one side and walked away.

It took no more than five minutes from his arrival to leave the bar.

Benjamin narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Marcel's departing back. He took a sip of the wine, yet, his eyes were dark and uncertain.

Marcel received another phone call again when he just walked out of the bar.

Marcel didn't seem really want to answer the phone after glancing it but the phone rang persistently.

He went back to the car and answered the phone. "Mum!"

Marcel's mother called and before he could speak, he heard his mother crying before cursing loudly, "Marcel, the bastard Nate wants to get his bastard son back to the company and give him all the company in the future!"

Marcel gave a "hum" and didn't answer.

"What right does your father have?"

"Mum, if you are not reconciled, you can go to him! Whether it is a big fight or a divorce, it's up to you, instead of crying and moaning at me!" Marcel said.

"Marcel!" Marcel's mother shouted out hurtfully.

Marcel rubbed his eyebrows and spoke to the phone, "You should have divorced him twenty five years ago, but you didn't choose to get a divorce! So since you've already chosen to live with him, shouldn't you stop complaining?"

"But what your father is doing right now is not a personal matter!"

"Then you can divorce him now and you can have half of the Hopkins Group! If you don't divorce, the Hopkins Group will belong to Newman Group in the future!" Marcel said.

"You come back and take over the company!"

"I'm not going anywhere, I'll be a policeman!"

"What is so great to be a cheap policeman? Why do you have to be in a place like that?"

"I have to work overtime today, Mum! I'll hang up first and if you're boring, you can play cards with aunt!" After saying, Marcel didn't give his mother a chance to speak but hung up the phone directly.

Rae had already finished her bath, changed her clothes and sat at the dining table where there was rice, two dishes and a soup on the table when Marcel came back, yet, she didn't take a bite.

When Marcel dragged his tired body through the door, he smelled the fragrance of the dishes and a warm feeling came out.

Rae immediately stood up and whispered, "You are back?"

He didn't say anything, didn't even pay any attention to her but went to the bathroom directly.

Fifteen minutes later, he came out without a towel around his waist and he just walked out naked.

Rae was stunned and jerked her head down in shock.

Marcel went to the bedroom, took his clothes and changed before coming out again.

Rae kept her back to him as he walked to the dining table, picked up the rice on the table and started to eat.

When Rae saw him eating, she began eating slowly too.

He didn't say a word during the meal so Rae dared not to speak, neither of them paying any attention to each other.

When both of them finished eating, Rae washed the dishes and he didn't stop her. Instead, he sat on the chair and watched her cleaning up.

Rae felt something wrong with the atmosphere as it was like an outburst cold war followed by a fight which made others feel scary!

As she finished washing the dishes in the kitchen and took off her apron, she suddenly felt a figure approaching her followed by a blackness in front of her eyes, yet, her body went up in the air. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Ah..." Rae screamed in terror.

Without saying a word, Marcel carried her horizontally and came out of the kitchen.

"What are you doing?" Rae shouted in a low voice, "Let go of me!"

Marcel pursed his lips tightly and his face was expressionless when he looked at Rae with his deep and dark eyes and said only one word, "You!"

In an instant, Rae's face blushed.

Marcel did not say anything either and Rae did not struggle anymore.

It was hot that night.

Yet, under such circumstance of passion, Rae was running out of energy!

The next day when she woke up, her waist was sore and her legs were cramped.

As usual, Marcel didn't say anything and he still didn't pay her any attention.

Rae didn't force him either. The two of them washed up and had their breakfast before going to work together.

When both of them arrived at the police station, Rae walked behind Marcel, who then saw that she was walking slowly and stopped to wait for her.

As Rae walked, she came up beside Marcel, who suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed her hand.

Rae was startled. "Huh?"

Marcel's hand had already tightly grasped her small hand and was intertwined with her hands, making them look extraordinarily intimate.

Rae was so frightened that she dared not to speak but could only stare at him with her wide eyes, wondering what he was going to do again? Meanwhile, Easton came from the car park and he was a bit stunned upon seeing both Marcel and Rae standing arm in arm under the building. "Captain Hopkins, Rae, you guys?" Marcel looked at Easton and said, "Easton, let me formally introduce to you! This is my girlfriend, Rae! We are dating!"

Rae was shocked when he just said it out so suddenly and openly.

She didn't know what exactly Marcel meant for!

He acted so uncertainly that it was impossible for others to guess!

Undoubtedly, Rae admitted that she was shocked when Marcel told Easton so openly.

Easton was also taken aback! His mouth opened wide and he looked at them as if he had seen a ghost!

Marcel seemed very dissatisfied with Easton's performance. He raised his eyebrows at him and asked, "What? Do you have any problem with the matter that I am in love with Rae?"

Back to his conscious, Easton immediately shook his head. "No! No! I am shocked that you guys are together! It is good!"

Marcel hummed and said fervently, "Recently, both of us feel that we suit each other so we get together! From now on, everyone should stop thinking about Rae and tell that group of youngsters in your office!" Easton nodded busily, "Don't worry!"

Now that the whole bureau knew Rae and Marcel were in love and both of them came to work together today arm in arm, so all the previous speculations had turned out to be true and Rae really had a relationship with Captain Hopkins.

The whole morning, Rae had spent her time in the midst of everyone's deep stares.

Rae grabbed her bag and tried to leave when it was the time to meet Kane at noon. By the time she moved two steps away, she met Marcel, who hadn't said a word to her the whole morning, apart from grabbing her hand and introducing her new status as his girlfriend to Easton and Garbassi.
