Ah, the boyfriend suffering from an illness!

She had sold the bracelet he gave to her for $800, 000, possibly to pay for her boyfriend's treatment. Did this mean that in her eyes, Marcus meant nothing to her?

The care and companionship she provided him with were merely an act?

Marcus, born into nobility, never really took women seriously. Now, the first time he developed genuine feelings for a woman, it turned out she had only been stringing him along. How could someone as proud as him endure such a betrayal?

He sat in his room in pensive silence.
