Chapter 27 If it were before , Marceline would have definitely found him annoying and argued with him . But now , just the sight of him sickened her . Thus , she simply washed her hand and got up to leave . She hadn't eaten much all day , so her blood sugar was somewhat low . As a result , she nearly collapsed after a few steps . However , the expected pain from her fall never came Curtis had caught her in his arms . His expensive suit was stained , and in his rush to get out of the car , he hadn't brought an umbrella . So now , the rain was falling on both of them . Upon seeing this , Ken immediately opened an umbrella and got out of the driver seat . The car Curtis had come in today was a Rolls - Royce , which came with an umbrella . It was said that the umbrella alone sold for a thousand dollars . Marceline waited for her dizziness to pass , then raised her hand to push Curtis away . But Curtis only held her tighter and , half pulling and half carrying her , brought her into the car . " Let go of me ! " Marceline cried . During the struggle , the laptop in her hand fell to the ground with the sound of a screen cracking Marceline froze for a moment , then quickly looked down to check . The laptop had already stopped turning on earlier , and now , it was completely dead .. Curtis took this opportunity to close the car door . Upon seeing Marceline coldly inspecting the laptop , he reached over and took it " Don't touch my laptop ! " Marceline guarded her laptop ferociously , her eyes icy cold as she stared at him , as if he was an enemy . Curtis felt like he had been struck . Anger rose in him , and he forcefully snatched the laptop away . But Marceline lunged like she had gone mad . She tried to grab it back , but she was too weak Curtis easily held her back with one hand . He knew more about laptops than she did . After a quick check , he could tell the hardware was completely destroyed . He said , " There's no fixing this anymore . I'll get you a new one later . " Suddenly , Marceline went still . Then , she smiled faintly and silently stared at the rain beyond the window . The sky outside was veiled in rain , and the entire city seemed to be collapsing in the downpour - just like her world . The moment Curtis said those words , she knew that the man who once pampered her in every way , who couldn't bear to let her suffer even a little , was truly gone . Curtis sensed the deadness in her and frowned . " It's just a laptop . I'll have Ken get a new one for you . Besides , this is such an old model -it should've been replaced long ago . " Marceline leaned back against the seat without saying anything . Her throat hurt so badly that she couldn't speak Soon , the car stopped at Cloudcrest Bay . However , Marceline didn't get out and merely said , " This isn't my home . " Even though Curtis had criticized the outdated laptop , he had spent the whole ride trying to fix it . His expression darkened instantly the moment he heard what she said . " Please take me to Serenestone , " Marceline said to Ken . Serenestone was the villa Zachary owned and where she currently lived . Curtis slammed the laptop onto the seat with a bang , causing it to shatter beyond repair . " Marceline , have you forgotten you're a married woman ? "
