Chapter 97
The corners of Marine’s mouth twitched as she looked at Gordon, who had collapsed before her.
“Are you so unconcealed? Do you think I’m blind, or the surveillance camera doesn’t work?” said Marina.
Gordon looked
up
in a daze at the familiar voice.
“… Carol?” asked Gordon.
“You’ve got the wrong person!” Marina scoffed as she prepared to leave.
“Miss Bailey!” called Gordon, who had fallen to the ground and suddenly returned to his senses. He stood up in a hurry and blocked Marina’s path.
“Get out of my way!” The look on Marina’s face instantly turned cold.
If it weren’t for the fact that there were too many people in the hospital and it wasn’t inappropriate for her to make a move, Marina would have smashed his head right now!
“Miss Bailey, are you going to look for Sophia?” Asked Gordon, not backing away.
“What does it have to do with you? Do you think you can still protect her now?” said Marina. Her patience was reaching its
limits.
“Miss Bailey, can you spare Sophia on account of the fact that I saved your life back then?” Gordon gritted his teeth and spoke to her with some difficulty.
“What did you say?” said Marina as if she had heard some colossal joke.
“I don’t think I’ve mistreated you in those three years,” said Gordon. “The only thing I’ve done wrong to you is to use you to restrain my family even though I knew how you felt about me. I’m here to apologize to you. Can you please just let Sophia go?
“She has lost everything now. Even her father has abandoned her, and I can’t marry her anymore. If you have a grudge, it should be gone now, right?” said Gordon, staring at Marina with a burning gaze.
“Oh, Gordon, how dare you mention saving my life? After what you did to me back then, do you think you have the right to talk about it before me?” said Marina with a chill in her eyes.
“What did I do?” asked Gordon. Seeing Marina’s reaction, Gordon felt as if something was not quite right.
“Mr. Campbell, you do have a good memory,” said Marina. “In order to force me to divorce, you drugged me and caused me to lose my virginity. Don’t you remember all of those?!” If not for the fact that Gordon had saved her life back then, there was no way he was standing in front of her right now!
“I drugged you? How is that possible? I’ve never done such a thing!” Gordon was stunned when he heard her.
“Not you?” asked Marina, narrowing her dark eyes.
“Of course not! How could I have done such a thing to force you to divorce me when I already felt indebted to you for agreeing to a contract marriage?” Cordon said calmly.
Marina stared at Gordon for a moment. He certainly didn’t look like he was lying.
“So it really wasn’t you?” Marina whispered.
“I swear that I have never done anything to hurt you. Otherwise, I will be punished by God!” Gordon said, reaching out his hand and swearing.

Chapter 97
Marina suddenly smiled as she looked at Gordon.
“It seems my grudge against her has increased,” said Marina.
“Her? Do you mean… Sophia?” said Gordon. Gordon was not stupid and instantly understood what Marina meant.
76%
“Otherwise? Who else did you think would be so scheming against me, who had no memory and danger back then?” Marina snorted.
“It’s impossible. Sophia, she…” Gordon was about to say that Sophia was not that kind of person.
But he was interrupted by Marina before he could finish his words.
“Why, Mr. Campbell, haven’t you seen Sophia’s dirty soul under her beautiful skin yet? Didn’t she react when she found out the Campbell family had gone bankrupt?” said Marina.
When Gordon heard Marina’s words, he suddenly remembered what Sophia had just said in the ward.
His face turned pale again in an instant.
He seemed to have subconsciously defended Sophia just now.
It was probably because he had become accustomed to it over the years, and it had become one of his subconscious behavior.
Looking at the silent Gordon, Marina knew Sophia had fallen out with him.
“Mr. Campbell, why are you still asking me to let Sophia go since she has fallen out with you?” said Marina, squinting at Gordon.
“It doesn’t matter whether she has fallen out with me or not, I once promised to marry her, but I’ve broken my promise now. I owe her one. After this, we’re even,” said Gordon, with a dim look in his eyes.
It was the last thing he could do for Sophia..
He no longer owed her anything from then on.
“I don’t know whether to call you infatuated or stupid,” said Marina, giving him a cold glance.
Gordon did not explain much to her and just said, “I found a dance teacher in Janeborough for Sophia, and she should be leaving for Janeborough soon. The teacher has been touring abroad with her students for most of the year. If nothing goes wrong, you probably never see Sophia again.”
“Did you say she was going to Janeborough?” asked Marina. The look in Marina’s eyes changed slightly when she heard him.
“That’s right. She will not appear before you in the future, so consider her dead at Solemwood,” Gordon said slowly.
The girl he wanted to marry had indeed died in Solemwood.
The look in Marina’s eyes flickered before a playful smile appeared on her face.
“Okay, I promise you I won’t go to her today. Just take it as I’ve repaid the debt of gratitude that you saved me in the past. From now on, we don’t owe each other anything!”
Then Marina turned around and left.
Janeborough?
Did she want to go to Janeborough and find another backer?
Her ambition might be great, but her fate was miserable,

Chapter 97
To deal with someone like Sophia, killing her directly could only make her suffer for a while.
One had to make her feel like she was already standing on the top of the

the valley and make her watch helplessly as everything that was clein. Then, one could easily drag her down
That kind of pain should be worse than her death.
Sophia, you have to be prepared.
Marina’s eyes were filled with interest.
Meanwhile, Gordon’s gaze was fixed on Marina.
Were they not going to owe each other anything anymore?
It was just as well. They were not from the same world.
Gordon closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
There was no sadness in his eyes when he opened them again.
From now on, he would live as the successor of the Campbell family.
Everything in the past had gone with the

Marina had just come out of the hospital when she got a call from Chuck.
within her reach instantly dissipated.
The other party said something to her, and Marina’s face instantly darkened.
“I got it, and I’ll be right back!” said Marina. She hung up and immediately contacted Peter to take Jessica to the airport.
Oscar and Lee immediately rushed to the airport after Marina notified them.
