Chapter 156
As Simon was approaching her, Marina subconsciously flinched.
“You don’t have to thank me like this.”
“Of course I do. I’ve always known how to repay kindness. Marina, you’ve helped me so much this time. I definitely have to repay you.”
Marina moved a little to the side, and Simon immediately moved with her.
Not only did the distance between the two of them not widen, but they were getting closer and closer.
“I don’t expect anything in return when I help people.” Marina took another step back.
However, there was no way out now.
Her back was pressed against the armrest of the sofa.
Meanwhile, Simon also took the opportunity to lean forward.
Their position instantly became even a bit more sexual.
Marina looked up, wanting Simon to move away.
Unexpectedly, when she raised her head, their eyes met.
For a moment, they just kept looking into each other’s eyes.
The atmosphere in the room became a little erotic.
And there were all kinds of emotions surging in Simon’s eyes.
It was as if something was about to spill out.
He lowered his head inch by inch, and just as he was about to touch Marina’s lips…
Suddenly, a ringtone sounded.
Marina’s thoughts were instantly pulled back and she pushed Simon away.
Then, she took out her phone.
She glanced at the caller ID and quickly got up.
“I gotta take this call.” After she said that, Marina did not wait for Simon to respond. She quickly took her phone and walked straight to the window.
Meanwhile, Simon’s eyes darkened slightly as he watched Marina flee.
Who was being so fude?
How dare this caller interrupted him at this time!
After Marina finished the call, she immediately walked toward Simon.
Simon quickly restrained the emotions in his eyes.
“I have some urgent matters to deal with. That’s all for today,” said Marina as she prepared to leave.
The light in Simon’s eyes instantly dimmed after he heard her words.

Chapter 156
That was all for today…
Why couldn’t they just continue?
When Marina walked to the door, she realized that there was nothing but silence behind her.
When she turned around, she saw that Simon was still in the same position as before, staring at her with a burning gaze.
There seemed to be some resentment in his eyes.
Marina was speechless.
It seemed like leaving at this time was indeed killing the mood.
After all, if the call hadn’t interrupted them just now, maybe she wouldn’t have pushed him away.
“I’ll come for you after I’m done with my business,” Marina said.
“Marina, do you mean we can continue next time?” Simon’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
“We’ll talk about it next time.” Marina didn’t make it too clear.
She left after saying these provocative words.
Simon narrowed his eyes and stared in the direction Marina left.
This girl had really gone bad now.
She ran away right after flirting with him.
And she didn’t take any responsibility for what she did at all.
It seemed that he must marry her as soon as possible.
Otherwise, this girl would always keep running around, and he would not be able to catch her at all.
After Marina left Simon, she got into the car.
Then she left quickly.
At this moment.
At the headquarters of Pembroke Group.
Yenny took a lot of time to calm down the turmoil caused by the rapid decline in stocks.
The various statistics gradually began to recover.
Only then did Yenny have the energy to deal with other things.
“Have you found the person I asked you to investigate?” Yenny looked up at the secretary in front of him.
“We haven’t found out anything about that lady’s identity yet.” The secretary immediately lowered his head.
There was a hint of fear in his tone.
“You didn’t find any clues?” Yenny’s eyes flared dangerously.
“We’ve already tried our best to investigate. We should be able to get some information soon.” The secretary lowered his head even more.
Just now, their boss had already thrown a tantrum at several managers.
To be honest, this matter had nothing to do with them.
The other party attacked them unexpectantly and quite fiercely.
There was no way to prevent this from happening.
Their boss also knew that. He just wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of the ones who were disobedient.
“There’s no need to investigate the Garcia family anymore. She can’t be from the Garcia family,” Yenny said after some thought.
The Garcia family would never be able to raise such a girl.
“Yes, sir!” The secretary immediately replied.
But if she wasn’t from the Garcia family, then whose family was she from?
He could count on one hand the number of people who could make him suffer such a huge loss in Janeborough.
Simon…
There had never been such a person around him before.
Then the only possibility left should be…
The Bailey family?
Yenny’s pupils constricted when he thought of this.
There was indeed a young lady in the Bailey family and she should be about the same age as that girl.
More importantly, Miss Bailey basically never showed her face in public.
With that thought in mind, he could now confirm the girl’s identity.
The Bailey family.
Simon was really good at this. No wonder he was so fearless previously.
He didn’t expect that he had already h o o ked up with the Bailey family.
He had really underestimated Simon before.
“Have you contacted the people from Hernandez Group?” After confirming Marina’s identity, Yenny felt much more relaxed.
“We’ve already contacted them. They’re willing to sell their shares.”
Although he didn’t know how his boss’s mood got so much better in an instant, the secretary still replied without hesitation.
“Continue to accelerate the acquisition process. Within half a month, I want more shares than Simon’s in my hands!” Yenny said word by word.
“Yes, sir!”
“You may leave now.” Yenny waved his hand.
The secretary hurried out.
Yenny was the only one left in the huge office.
Yenny stood up and slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.
He looked down at everything below him.
There was a glimmer of confidence in his eyes.
This little wolf cub was disobedient when he grew up and even wanted to bite his savior.
Then he would have to pull out his wolf fang.
This way, the wolf cub would finally behave.
Meanwhile, in the CEO office of Hernandez Group.
After Marina left, Gavin pushed the door open and entered.
“Mr. Hernandez, the Pembroke family’s stocks are starting to stabilize.” Gavin was reporting the latest updates to Simon.
“Okay,” Simon replied casually.
He was still thinking about what Marina had said before she left.
Let’s continue next time…
Next time, he had to arrange everything in advance to prevent any situations that might disturb them.
“Miss Bailey probably didn’t get serious this time. She just wanted to lure Yenny away.” However, this was already very impressive.
Although the Pembroke family had responded in time this time, they had also suffered a great loss.
“Marina doesn’t have the time, but I have plenty of time. Find something for Yenny to do.” Simon’s eyes immediately darkened when he recalled the way Yenny stared at Marina.
