Memories Of The Night 201 Chapter 201: Marcellus Is Too Perfec

Katrina is leaving the hospital when she runs into Farrah.

Looking at Katrina's distraught face, Farrah asks in worry, "What happened, Katrina? Did you and Marcellus have a fight?"

It's only been a few minutes since Katrina's s.h.i.+ft ended. She must have just arrived at the hospital. Why is she leaving so soon?

Given the depressed look on Katrina's face, the only explanation seems to be that she had a fight with Marcellus. This is the only reason Farrah can think of it.

Did something unpleasant happen when she visited Marcellus? Farrah wonders. But Marcellus loves Katrina a lot…

He pursued Katrina for many years. In spite of everything, he cared for her and remained silently by her side. Now that they're finally together, he dotes on Katrina and treats her with obvious devotion.

Marcellus is a compa.s.sionate man. A lot of women would be envious of Katrina for finding such a tender and caring boyfriend.

There is no way that he would quarrel with Katrina. Something must have happened.

While Farrah anxiously worries about her best friend, Katrina looks up at her and says, "Farrah, I've decided to break up with Marcellus."

Farrah jerks at the unexpected announcement, disbelief colors her face. "What?"

As she suspected, Katrina's problem is related to Marcellus. But she didn't think it would be so serious that she wants to break up with him.

"Why?" she asks incredulously. "Why are you breaking up with Marcellus? Did he bully you? Did he do something to offend you?"

While Farrah finds it strange that Katrina wants to break up with Marcellus, she knows that she wouldn't break up with him for no reason. But she has no idea what it could be.

Is Marcellus in love with someone else? Farrah quickly sc.r.a.ps the idea. There is no way that would happen; Marcellus only has eyes for Katrina. He doesn't even give anyone else the time of day.

Did he bully her? Farrah's eyes widen in disbelief. No way, how dare he!

As Farrah anxiously waits for Katrina's response, Katrina quickly shakes her head. "No, Marcellus is very good to me, he's a great boyfriend. He didn't bully me or do anything to offend me."

Farrah breathes a sigh of relief at Katrina's words. As she expected, Marcellus is an excellent man. If he mistreats Katrina, there probably isn't a decent man left in the world.

But if that's the case… Farrah asks again, "Then why do you want to break up with him?"

"Marcellus is too perfect, and I don't deserve him," Katrina explains. "He is a talented young man with an excellent family background. I'm just a regular person. He doesn't suit me at all."

Claire's words serve as a wake-up call to Katrina. After thinking things through, she realizes that the older woman has a point.

Even if she stays with Marcellus because she loves him, it wouldn't be enough. Not everyone would approve of their relations.h.i.+p. The longer they stay together, the more they would suffer.

Katrina wants a relations.h.i.+p where she is to be able to stand beside her partner equally, not be compared to a parasite who is only taking advantage of her boyfriend. She wants to be in a relations.h.i.+p that is blessed by their family and friends, not one where she has to live in fear of schemes by her boyfriend's family.

Listening to Katrina, realization dawns on Farrah.

Over the past few days, she has occasionally encountered an elegant woman coming in and out of Marcellus's room at the hospital. She a.s.sumes the woman is Marcellus's mother.

Marcellus's mother must not approve of Katrina and their relations.h.i.+p. Katrina must want to break up with Marcellus because of his family's objections.

It's not very easy to marry into a wealthy family.

As an honorable woman, Katrina is not the type of person who would do things for the sake of money. Therefore, in the face of the disapproval of Marcellus's family, leaving is her best choice for her.

Farrah understands Katrina's decision. But to break up with Marcellus like this after being together for just a short period of time is quite a pity.

"What did Marcellus say?"

"I didn't see him earlier, so I haven't talked to him yet," Katrina says quietly. "I'll say my goodbye over the phone."

To break up with Marcellus completely, Katrina decides that she won't go to the hospital and see Marcellus again. She knows it's cruel to break things confusingly and heartbreakingly. But even if Marcellus takes a long time to get over it, even if he hates her, she will accept the consequences.

At this moment, Farrah doesn't have anything to say anymore.

Knowing that Katrina is upset, Farrah pats her on the shoulder in comfort. "Katrina, I'll go ask for a leave. What do you want to do tonight? I'll accompany you."

Katrina smiles and hugs Farrah. "Farrah, I know you're worried about me, but I'm fine. Get on with your work, I'll be alright."

At Katrina's cheerful look, Farrah is still left wondering, "Are you sure you can be alone right now?"

"Yes, Farrah!" Katrina urges. "Please go on. I'm hungry now, so I'll get something to eat first."

"Well..." Farrah hesitates. "Alright, then. Call me if you need me for anything!"

Katrina grins. "I know, thank you."

As soon as Farrah turns her back, Katrina's face falls. After the breakup, she is afraid that she and Marcellus will become strangers.

But she is thankful to have a good confidant who cares about her deeply. Though she doesn't have any family or friends, she still has Farrah.

As the sun sets and the mottled street lights brighten the sky, the city is plunged into a quiet night. Wandering along on the streets, Katrina feels lonely.

Suddenly, her phone rings. Taking out her phone, she sees Marcellus's name on the screen.

Just as she wonders when she should end things with him, he calls all of a sudden. Now that she has this opportunity, she should break up with him now.

Taking a deep breath, Katrina answers the call.
