Chapter 44
“Then… Miss Bailey, what do you want from me?” Mr. Zack’s voice was trembling.
If she didn’t want money, could it be that she wanted… his life?
Thinking of this, Mr. Zack’s face turned even paler.
Marina did not answer Mr. Zack’s question immediately. Instead, she suddenly walked behind him.
On the other side stood a little boy who was about four or five years old. He was fair and chubby and was staring at Marina and the others timidly.
Mr. Zack saw Marina’s actions and quickly raised his voice. “He’s just a child. He doesn’t know anything about what I’ve done. Please show mercy and let my son go!”
Mr. Zack was really nervous.
One had to know that he had suffered a lot to give birth to this son.
However, Marina had no intention of paying attention to him at all. At this moment, she was already squatting in front of the chubby boy.
Mr. Zack hesitated for a moment. He stood up and wanted to rush over, but Lee stood in front of him.
Marina bent down and picked up the chubby boy. Mr. Zack’s heart immediately tightened.
However, Lee was still laying in front of him. He could not get close to Marina at all.
Oscar looked at her, who was carrying the child, and moved a stool
over.
Marina sat down calmly and placed the little fatty on her lap.
Meanwhile, in a car not far away, Simon Hernandez saw everything.
He could not help but frown. His gaze landed on the chubby boy on Marina’s knees, and his eyes darkened.
It should be noted that even he had not sat in her laps before.
What did that little fatty do?
Gavin Johnson, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, could not help but twitch his lips when he saw Simon’s gaze.
Now, had their Mr. Hernandez stooped to the level of fighting for favor with a chubby boy?
Mmmmm…
If word got out, the jaws of those at home would probably drop!
Meanwhile, Marina was completely unaware of this. She only lowered her head and looked at the chubby boy in her arms with a smile.
“Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you.”
Her voice was very gentle. She even took off her sunglasses.
When the boy saw Marina’s incomparably beautiful face, his nervous expression really relaxed a lot.
“What kind of songs do you usually like to listen to? I’ll play it for you.” As soon as Marina finished speaking, Oscar directly handed her a pair of headphones.
She opened the music app on her phone and stuffed the earpiece into the chubby boy’s ear.
“How about Happy Goat?” Marina asked.
The chubby boy did not reply and just stared at her.
“You don’t like it? How about Two Tigers?” Marina asked patiently.
“…I want Ultraman!” Finally, the chubby boy spoke.
“Ultraman? That won’t do. That’s from a neighboring country that’s living very well. Be good, we won’t listen to that. We have to listen to our own songs.” As Marina spoke, she played a song for the little fatty, “Monkey Brother, Monkey Brother!”
The fat boy’s wish was not fulfilled, and his chubby little face fell.
However, when the music came out of the earpiece, his chubby little feet started swaying along with the rhythm.
He was a little fatty whose body went against his wishes.
Marina laughed and complained to herself.
After she plugged the fat boy’s cars, she looked at Mr. Zack, who was standing opposite her.
“Because of your ambush, Peter Moore’s right hand was fractured, together with three ribs on his chest, and he also suffered a slight concussion. I’ve always been a vengeful person, so if someone hurt me, I’d have to return it tenfold to be satisfied. So… I want one of your hands and one of your legs!” Marina’s eyes flashed coldly,
Mr. Zack’s very fat figure instantly swayed.
“Do you want to do it yourself, or do you want my men to help you?” Marina’s tone was firm.
Mr. Zack’s lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but Marina interrupted him.
“Don’t talk nonsense to me. I don’t like to waste time with others. If you’re unwilling to do it yourself, I’ll get my guy to help you. However, he’s ruthless. Perhaps when he does it, it won’t be as simple as just a hand or a leg.”
Although her tone was light and slow, the coldness in it made Mr. Zack’s back turn cold.
He had seen her subordinate’s skills before.
The director he had beaten up was still lying unconscious in the hospital.
Mr. Zack gritted his teeth. “Will you let me go as long as I return Mr. Moore’s arm and leg?”
“Yes.” Marina’s tone was steady.
“… Alright! I hope you won’t go back on your word!” Mr. Zack hesitated. again and again before finally making up his mind.
He picked up a stool beside him and threw it at his leg.
A painful wail instantly resounded throughout the entire villa area.
The chubby boy sitting on Marina’s knees seemed to have heard. something and could not help but raise his little face.
Meanwhile, she lowered her head and smiled at him, rubbing his head comfortingly.
She gestured for him to continue listening to the song.
The chubby boy was facing her, so he could not see anything behind him. He was really immersed in Monkey King’s charm again.
Opposite them, Mr. Zack had already fallen to the ground. His right leg was lying horizontally on the ground in a very twisted state.
“Continue,” Marina said calmly.
Mr. Zack was in so much pain that his forehead was covered in sweat, but he did not dare to stop. He turned around and forcefully pulled the table to the side.
The table smashed right into his right hand.
And this time, Mr. Zack fainted from the pain.
The surrounding guests also shrank back their feet and hands.
It was really painful to look at.
“… I… have already done as you said. Now… can you let me go?” Mr. Zack forced himself to stay conscious and stared at Marina.
“Of course,” she replied without any hesitation.
Then, she gently put down the chubby boy in his arms.
She bent down slightly and took off the earphones in his ears.
She looked at him with a smile. “Little fatty, when you grow up, you have to remember that you can accumulate wealth and do whatever you want, but you can’t kill anyone. Even if you’re a bad person, you have to have a bottom line. At the very least, you have to be humane, understand?”
The chubby boy did not understand what Marina was saying, but seeing that she was listening to the song for him, he still nodded.
“Good boy!” She rubbed the chubby boy’s head and left the scene.
She came like a gust of wind, and after stirring up a storm, she left gracefully.
That beautiful and awe–inspiring back view made Simon Hernandez’s
gaze turn even hotter.
The little girl in his memory who blushed when she said that she wanted to marry him had really grown up.
