"Mark . . ." Val warned him.
Mark wanted to scream at the top of his lungs. Why did this guy have to express his reluctance in front of Patrick L? Didn't he know that having a divided view like this was a sign of weakness? Mark couldn't handle it anymore.
"Val," Mark gave him a warning look as a reply. He glanced at him from the corner of his eyes as if telling him that he didn't have much time left for Val's dubious loyalty. Where did his loyalty lie by the way? With Mark and Stephanie, or with Aluna? Mark wasn't a person who loved comparing two different people who had different priorities in life, such as Aluna and Stephanie. But if he had to choose, he obviously prioritised Stephanie's safety at this point. Sadly, it seemed that Val didn't share his belief.
"Stephanie is first."
Valentino looked down after taking a deep breath. His fists shook at his silence, and then he said, "Only Stephanie?"
