Chapter 112
“By the way, do you know where this tattoo comes from?” Daniel suddenly looked at Marina.
Emotions flickered in Marina’s eyes for a moment but she soon returned to normal.
“Aunt Daisy, I want to talk to you alone.” Marina looked at Daisy.
“Then let’s go to my office.” Daisy did not hesitate at all.
“I am in charge of this case. Is there anything you can’t say in front of me?” Daniel immediately followed the two.
But Marina just turned her head and gave him a faint glance. “If you don’t want to get into trouble, don’t interfere in this
case anymore.”
She then left without a further word.
“Chief…” Daniel wanted to say something, but Daisy interrupted him.
“You’re no longer in charge of this case.”
“But…” Daniel quickly objected, but before he could finish, Daisy had already turned around and left.
He wasn’t given any chance to speak at all.
Daniel stood rooted to the ground gloomily.
He thought, “What was the meaning of all this?
“Were they using me and then throwing me away when they were done?
“It wasn’t like this when I was helping them to record the autopsy report just now!”
Daisy walked into her office.
The doors and windows were already shut.
“Marina, what happened?” Daisy knew that this matter must be very serious. Otherwise, Marina would not have revealed such an expression.
Marina was silent for a moment before finally opening her mouth.
“Aunt Daisy, four years ago, when I suddenly got injured and disappeared, I was attacked by the organization with the same tattoo pattern.”
Marina had never mentioned this before.
It was because she didn’t want to involve the Bailey family in her own affairs. She wanted to solve her problems on her own.
But now, it seemed that the group’s target was not her, but the entire Bailey family.
“What? It was them who hurt you?” Daisy’s face changed when she heard this.
“And Lambert was also injured. Although he and grandpa have never told me the truth about his injuries, I now think that his injury must also be related to this organization.
“It seems like the Bailey family has been targeted.” Marina’s eyes darkened.
“Who are these people? How dare they lay their hands on the Bailey family?” Daisy’s face also grew grave.
Chapter 112
“I haven’t found out their true identities yet, but what I can be sure of is that these people are very dangerous. Aunt Daisy, you should find an excuse to rest for a while and not interfere in this case anymore.” Marina’s expression was serious.
Daisy was about to refuse when Marina interrupted her again.
“I know you are not the kind of person who is afraid of death, Aunt Daisy, but if these people are coming after us, your staying at the police station will only involve more innocent people.”
At this point, Daisy’s expression finally changed.
“Marina does have a point.
“If that organization is targeting the Bailey family, staying at the police station may indeed cause more trouble,” Daisy thought.
“I understand. I will talk to the people in charge. Daisy agreed at last.
“Good! The sooner the better. We can’t afford to drag it out,” Marina said.
“Of course.” Daisy assured Marina.
After the talk with Daisy, Marina hurried back to the Bailey family.
Marina had to find out how her brother, Lambert, got injured.
However, as soon as Marina returned to the Bailey family, she sensed that something was wrong.
This was because there was a new car parked in the yard.
It was rare for anyone to visit their family.
And the license plate on the car didn’t look like it belonged to an ordinary person.
Marina opened the door and went in.
When the servant at the door saw Marina, she immediately greeted her respectfully, “Miss Bailey”
Marina immediately saw the pile of gift boxes in the living room.
They almost filled the entire living room.
“What’s going on?” Marina frowned.
“It’s a happy occasion, Miss Bailey.” The servant smiled meaningfully.
Marina was a little puzzled, but she walked towards the living room.
She saw Simon, who was sitting in front of her grandfather, among the many boxes.
Marina was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that the person in front of her was not an illusion.
It was really Simon!
“Why are you here?” Marina quickly walked up to him.
“Marina, I’ve come to propose to you as promised. Simon’s eyes were full of affection.
Marina thought, “What!
“This guy
lly came to propose to me?”
Chapter 112
“Grandpa, why didn’t you throw him out?” Marina looked at Chuck with great disbelief.
“Marina, you are talking nonsense. Why should I throw Simon out? He’s such a decent young man. I like him so much.” Chuck looked at Simon with a wide smile.
Marina thought, “What?
“What is happening here?”
She had to remind her grandpa again, “Grandpa, didn’t you hear Simon clearly just now? He came to propose to me.”
“Of course I heard him. Simon’s already brought so many engagement gifts over. How could I not know that he’s here to propose marriage?” Chuck glared at Marina.
“Huh?
“What’s going on?
“My grandpa just glared at me?
“Am I no longer his favorite granddaughter?” Marina wondered.
“Simon, Marina has been spoiled by me. Her temper is a little unpredictable. In the future, I hope you can be tolerant with her, not too indulgent. If this girl gets on your nerves, you can always come here and tell me. I’ll discipline her for you!”
Chuck seemed to be completely unaware of Marina’s silent objection. Instead, he looked at Simon with a smile.
“Grandpa Chuck, don’t worry. I will definitely take good care of Marina in the future. I will never let her suffer any harm.” Simon promised firmly.
“What the heck?
“Simon even said grandpa?” Marina thought.
“Come out with me! Now!” Marina abandoned all her etiquette. She grabbed Simon by his arm and headed straight toward the backyard.
“Grandpa Chuck, you should take a rest first. I’ll talk to Marina for a while before coming back to play chess with you.” Even though he was being dragged away by Marina, Simon still bowed like a gentleman to Chuck.
“Of course. I will wait for you.” Chuck was smiling so hard that a few more wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes.
Outside, however, Marina simply threw Simon against the wall behind the garden.
Then she stomped her feet heavily next to Simon.
Simon turned his head and took a look at Marina. She was indeed showing her affection for him differently.
Still, he liked it.
“Marina, Grandpa Chuck is still waiting inside. Did you pull me out in such a hurry just to talk to me?” Simon’s eyes were smiling as he looked at Marina with a burning gaze.
“I miss you? How the fuck did you come to that conclusion! Did my grandfather really agree to your marriage proposal?” Marina stared at Simon without blinking.
