Chapter 442
The Bailey family learned that Marina had returned to the country. They were eagerly awaiting Marina’s return, but she didn’t show up at home.
Anxiously, they called her again and over again.
Soon, Marina realized she couldn’t avoid them for long.
So she answered Daisy’s call and promised to go home immediately.
Daisy wanted to ask more, but Marina hung up.
Daisy did not call again. She just waited anxiously at home for Marina.
Marina instructed the researcher to check Peter’s condition carefully.
Afterward, Marina and Simon returned to the Bailey family.
At the Bailey’s manor.
Chuck, Daisy, and almost every one of the Bailey family returned.
They had been hiding this matter from others, hoping that this was just a misunderstanding.
However, as time passed and Marina did not return, Daisy could no longer hide the situation from the rest of the family.
She could only tell the others everything.
Hence, everyone returned home this time.
People all stared at Marina.
Marina had been sitting there for ten minutes already.
However, she did not say a word.
In the end, Mary couldn’t wait any longer.
Mary asked Marina with a worried expression, “Marina, how did it go? Were you able to bring your two brothers back?”
Hearing Mary’s words, the atmosphere became more tense, and everyone’s anxiety heightened.
Marina glanced at the people in the room.
She felt a lump in her throat.
She didn’t know how was she supposed to answer.
“Are they… gone? Did you bring them back?” Daisy’s voice trembled as she asked, her voice filled with desperation and a hint of disbelief.
Actually, she could vaguely tell the answer from Marina’s behavior.
If Marina had successfully brought her two brothers back, she wouldn’t have evaded them.
She would have hurried home without any delay.
But she didn’t.
That indicated that the trip was undoubtedly fraught with difficulties.
However, she refused to accept this result.
She had been comforting herself that she was thinking too much.
“No!” Mariná immediately said.
Daisy leaved a sigh of relief when she heard this.
“Then… Did you manage to bring at least one of them back?” Daisy asked, her voice filled with hope and concern.
Daisy, who had finally composed herself, turned her gaze towards Marina again.
“Who… is it?”
The others also looked at Marina with burning eyes.
They were all waiting for her answer.
Marina’s gaze shifted from Daisy to Lambert’s parents
Then, she bowed deeply to them.
Chapter 442
Tears welled up in Lambert’s parents‘ eyes as they instantly understood the meaning behind Marina’s action.
Lambert’s mother’s eyes widened in shock as she clutched her chest and collapsed to the ground. “Honeyl Lambert’s father cried out in concern as he rushed to his wife’s side, holding her body with worry.
“Uncle, Aunt. I’m sorry,” Marina said with a lowered head, her voice filled with guilt and remorse.
She didn’t dare to raise her head.
She did not dare to look at Lambert’s parents.
Chuck, who was sitting in the middle, felt his body tremble involuntarily.
However, he was the backbone of everyone.
He reminded himself that he had to stay strong at this moment.
He tightly gripped his walking stick, relying on it for support.
Lambert’s father managed to appease his wife.
Then, he looked up at Marina.
“Marina, I know you did your best. Stand up…” His eyes were still teary and red.
His voice was also slightly hoarse.
Lambert was his only son. Losing a son in one’s middle age was an unbearable pain for anyone to endure.
Marina’s heart was heavy with anguish, and she couldn’t bring herself to meet their.
“I am to be blamed for Lambert’s death…”
“What do you mean by that?” A trace of doubt appeared in Lambert’s father’s eyes.
Marina was about to speak…
Just then, a slender figure suddenly walked in from outside.
“It was me!”
As soon as her voice sounded, everyone present looked over.
gaze.
Even Marina looked
up.
When Sharon walked into the living room, Marina’s expression changed.
Then, she said, “Why are you here? You haven’t fully recovered yet. Go back and rest.”
However, Sharon did not leave. Instead, she looked at Marina gratefully.
“You shouldn’t take the blame that doesn’t belong to you. You’ve already done a lot!” Sharon must have cried for her eyes were extremely red.
“Sharon…” Marina knew what she wanted to do.
As expected, the next moment, Sharon knelt down in front of Lamber’s parents.
“Girl, what are you doing? Get up quickly.” Lambert’s father knew Sharon.
He saw her with Lambert all this while.
Lambert looked very concerned about her.
They had also asked about Sharon’s identity.
However, Lambert didn’t answer their question.
He said that Sharon was an orphan.
The Bailey family wasn’t very strict about status when it came to marriage.
They would have accepted anyone that their son loved, no matter where she came from.
Real wealthy families didn’t need to maintain their position by marriage.
Therefore, the two of them had already treated Sharon as their future daughter–in–law.
Now that he saw that she was fine, he felt a trace of comfort in his heart.
However, Sharon shook her head and knelt.
That was the only way to make her feel less guilty.
Lambert’s parents look puzzled.
Sharon quickly answered their doubts.
“Lambert died for me…”
Sharon had changed her way of addressing Lambert. He was no longer her master.
Lambert taught her.
He said that intimate people call each other by names.
“For you? Lambert’s mother’s eyes trembled slightly.
Sharon nodded.
Then, she explained what had happened to them.
However, to avoid unnecessary complications, Sharon chose not to disclose that she was an experimental subject to them.
She simply mentioned that she had been abducted by a bad people, who had administered some unknown drug to her.
The drug would accelerate the deterioration of her life.
Lambert brought her to the laboratory to save her.
He was injured and thrown into the sea while trying to protect her from harm.
“This is all my fault. I take full responsibility for what happened,” Sharon said, bowing deeply to them.
Lambert’s mother felt heartbroken.
She was not a mean person.
However, at this moment, she could not convince herself to help Sharon up.
