Chapter 362
“Because he has already agreed that Simon will be adopted into our family and cut ties with the Hernandez family from now on.” Mary glanced at Edward, who was sitting on the sofa.
“What did you say?” When Marina heard this, her expression immediately changed.
“Your mother is right. I have indeed agreed.” Edward nodded in response.
“Since you’ve already agreed, don’t go back on your word in the future. If you want to marry Marina, you must leave the Hernandez family.
“From now on, the Hernandez family’s matters are none of your business anymore. If you agree to this requirement, you can marry Marina!” Mary’s gaze landed on Simon.
Just as Simon was about to speak, Marina suddenly stood up.
She said with a serious expression, “I don’t agree!”
For a moment, everyone’s gaze fell on Marina
“Marina, it’s alright. I’ve told you before that I can marry into your family?” Simon held Marina’s hand and explained in a low voice.
“Marrying into my family doesn’t mean that you have to cut ties with your family.” Marina froze.
“I volunteered. Anyway, the Hernandez family’s situation has already stabilized.”
“Lambert is awake too. With him around, nothing can break the Hernandez family” Simon’s reaction was not as violent as Marina’s.
On the contrary, he looked very calm and treated it like an ordinary thing.
“How does it not matter? We’re just dating. Do you have to abandon your family for me?” Marina was not as calm as him.
Then, she turned around and looked at Mary, who was still sitting on the sofa, with a sharp gaze.
“Mom, I don’t know why you are so cruel. I think this matter is too ridiculous.
“How can one abandon his family just because he’s in love?”
“Anyway, I disagree this time. All of you, go back!” Marina said as she prepared to chase Simon and his family out of the door.
Simon still wanted to say something, but Marina gave him a cold look.
“Shut up! Why didn’t you tell me about this? I’ll settle the score with you later!”
“…I thought you would be happy to hear that.” Simon’s voice was slightly suppressed.
He knew that Marina had been upset by her mother’s disagreement with their relationship.
Therefore, he went to visit Mary in advance.
He wanted to know what he could do to gain her approval.
Mary suggested that he must cut ties with the Hernandez family.
If this happened in the past, Simon would never agree to such an unreasonable demand.
After all, without him, the Hernandez family would be a group without a leader.
However, things were different now. Hernandez had woken up and could take his place, so it did not matter if he stayed in the Hernandez family.
However, he just wanted to give Marina a surprise.
However, he did not expect her to be so angry.
She probably wouldn’t listen to anything he said, so he could only keep quiet.
After shutting Simon up, Marina looked back at Mary on the sofa.
“Mom, I’m an adult. I’m mature enough to choose my future partner.
“I won’t repeat it. It doesn’t matter if you disagree with the thing between me and Simog
“But I’ve decided on him for the rest of my life!
“At most, the two of us won’t get married for the rest of our lives. We’ll live together forever even without any status.
“Anyway, you know who I am. I don’t care about those nominal things.
“From now on, I hope you won’t look for Simon anymore. It’s not he who keeps staying with me, but me who can’t leave him!”
After saying this, Marina grabbed Simon’s tie and pulled hard.
She lowered his head, and before he could react she tiptoed and planted a kiss on his lips.

For a moment, gasps could be heard in the hall.
Robert’s eyes widened.
His sister–in–law was indeed awesome!
That’s the woman who deserved her brother.
Simon did not expect Marina to do something bold like this in public.
He stared at her for a long time before coming back to his senses.
After the kiss, Marina didn’t say anything else and grabbed Simon’s hand to leave.
The living room instantly fell into dead silence.
“Well… Sorry for bothering you today. I’ll go back first. We’ll visit you another day” Edward said to Mary with a smile after he came back to his senses.
Mary was depressed and did not have the mood to care about them.
She just made a casual reply.
Edward then stood up and left with Robert.
When the two of them went out, Simon and Marina were already gone.
“Previously, I’ve always been wondering what kind of woman could make Simon infatuated and even willing to give everything to the Hernandez family.
“I was worried that he might have been deceived. After all, you, your Uncle Simon, haven’t met many girls since he was young.
“But after what happened just now, I kind of understand why he did this.
Marina Bailey. That girl looked very young, but she was indeed an affectionate and sensible person.
“That’s for sure. Auntie Marina is so nice.” Robert quickly nodded.
Upon hearing his son’s words, Edward smiled.
He brought him home later.
Meanwhile, Marina was driving on the road with a cold expression.
Simon sat quietly in the front passenger seat.
Along the way, Marina did not speak anything.
There were several times when Simon wanted to break the silence, but he bit his tongue because of the cold aura emitted by Marina.
He knew that Marina was angry today.
And that’s not an ordinary level of anger.
“Marina, do you feel better now?” Simon found it inappropriate to clam up all the time and finally asked..
“Better? What should I feel bad for? I’m not the one who was forced to draw a line with my family. If you’re not angry, why should I be angry?”
When Marina said this, her tone was cold and aggressive.
If this wasn’t anger, then what was?
Simon’s voice softened a little. “Marina, to be honest, I’m okay with it. Besides, don’t forget I’ve told you about marrying into your family before.
“And I remember you didn’t have such a violent reaction at that time.”
Perhaps for others, marrying into his wife’s family might be a humiliation.
But He didn’t think so at all.
So what if she married into the family?
It was just a nominal matter.
His wife was still his wife, and his child was still his child.
If this woman could join the man’s family, why couldn’t the man marry into the woman’s family?
Abter all, the mother would be still the one to bear and raise children.
What was wrong with giving the baby her mother’s last name?
It couldn’t be that the child wouldn’t be his father’s kid just because he was given her mother’s family name.
