Chapter 225
The sun rose, casting its gentle rays across the room, signaling the arrival of a new day.
Marina awoke in Simon’s room, alone.
And he was no longer on the bed.
Marina raised herself, her eyes falling upon a note resting on the nightstand.
“I’m gone. Breakfast is set for you in the dining room. Eat something before heading back,” the note read.
It was Simon’s handwriting.
His script mirrored his character, exuding confidence and strength.
The note exuded an ominous aura, forewarning of impending danger.
Marina tucked the note away, and with deliberate steps, she made her way to the bathroom to freshen up..
After dressing up, she left the room.
Simon had prepared breakfast for Marina, placing it on the dining table in the living room.
The breakfast was not only prepared with care but it was also kept warm.
Marina took a seat without hesitation and began to enjoy her breakfast.
Once she finished her meal, Marina tidied up the dining table
She carried the trash out the door.
Her every move was extremely natural.
She felt at home.
Yet, in the absence of Simon’s company by her side, she felt that there was something missing.
When Marina returned to the Bailey family, it was almost noon.
The moment she crossed the threshold, Lambert readily greeted her.
Sharon Hill trailed closely behind him.
Her petite hand clasped the edge of Lambert’s shirt.
Sharon was the cat girl that Marina had bought previously.
Because she didn’t have a name, Lambert gave her a name..
It was his mother’s surname.
It appears that the two of you have fostered a strong bond,” Marina remarked, her eyes scanning the pair.
She was very happy to see them getting along.
You are aware that Sharon’s mindset differs from that of us common folk. She now regards me as her master and no one else,” he explained.
Lambert couldn’t help but feel a twinge of indecency as he was seized by the girl.

But he had no choice. No matter how he taught her, Sharon couldn’t learn it.
Even if she had let go of him when she was talking about her just now, she would not let go of him when she saw him again.
Therefore, he did not want to waste his time.
“It sounds quite exciting.” Marina teased in all seriousness.
“Don’t spout nonsense. She is still a child.” Lambert looked back at Sharon nervously.
Sharon, who had been staring at Lambert, immediately smiled brightly when she saw Lambert turn around.
Lambert’s expression instantly became gentler.
Who could reject such an obedient and cute little girl?

“Ah, I almost forgot. I was waiting for you because I have something important to tell you!” Lambert struggled to break free from Sharon’s smile.
Then, he turned to look at Marina.
“What is it?” Marina asked.
“I don’t know what happened recently, but several batches of our goods have been blocked by the customs for no reasons,” Lambert said.
“Any details?” Marina glanced at Lambert.
“It’s just some products from our overseas company. They’re not particularly important, but I keep feeling that this matter isn’t that simple.
“That cargo ship has the Bailey family’s logo printed on it. It’s our family’s assets on the surface, not a private company.
“Logically speaking, no one should have the guts to go against us.
“But it’s been a few times. I’m wondering if someone is deliberately targeting us or plotting something.” Lambert was injured last time, so he became more careful about these things.
He wanted to tell Marina.
“Got it. I’ll investigate it thoroughly,” Marina replied.
“Yes, but you have to be careful. I’m afraid these people have a plan,” Lambert reminded her.
If it weren’t for the fact that his body hadn’t fully recovered yet, he wouldn’t have troubled Marina.
“Yes.” Marina nodded. “I’ll let you know when I have news,”
After saying that, Marina went upstairs.
Then, she turned on her computer and looked up the goods that Lambert had mentioned.
She got some clu
Looking at the information on the computer screen, Marina’s black eyes narrowed.
She had already promised Simon not to go against Yenny..
But what if Yenny took the initiative to go against her?
She couldn’t just sit back and do nothing
Marina stared at the screen with a dark expression.

The next morning.
Marina directly brought Oscar and Lee out.
At Pier Janeborough.
It was the most prosperous area in the entire Janeborough.
Countless cargo ships docked every day.
There would also be countless cargo ships leaving the port.
the Bailey family has several spaces here.
At this moment, at the Bailey family’s ship.
The person–in–charge was arguing with the staff at the docks.
“What’s going on with you guys? We have all our documents and you’ve already checked the goods. Why can’t we leave the port?”
“Just ait a little longer. We’re also doing things according to the rules. You know that recently, the investigation of foreign sales has been rather strict. There’s nothing we can do,” that staff member said.
The people from the Bailey family had already looked for them several times, but they always said the same thing.
“Stop fooling us. This ship must leave today. Hurry up and let us through!” The people from the Bailey family were running out of patience.
One had to know that the longer they delayed, the more they would bear the cost.
It was not a small amount of money to have so many ships crushed here.
“It’s useless for you to say such harsh words to me. I only have such authority. I can only reassure you when the higher–ups give the order.” The staff still looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
He glanced at the people from the Bailey family.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a pain in his foot.
He immediately bent forward and knelt down.
“Who is it?” The staff member turned around angrily and realized that the person standing behind him was a beautiful woman.
He had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life.
Even the prettiest princess in the club couldn’t compare to her.
Marina ignored his gaze and only glanced at the name tag in front of him.
Examiner.
Marina snorted and glanced at the staff member of the Bailey family in front of her.
“Heh, you guys are really getting more and more promising. You’re actually detained here by an examiner. In the future, don’t mention the Bailey family when you go out. I can’t afford to lose face.”
“It’s our fault!” When the person on behalf of the Bailey family saw Marina, he quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
Marina was their Missy.
She was more terrifying than anyone else in the family

“What did the Bailey family teach you before?” Marina asked nonchalantly.
The examiner who was pressed to the ground by Lee wanted to get up, but he realized that he could not stand up at all.
The man’s hand on his shoulder weighed like a thousand pounds.
“We have to keep a low profile.” The person on behalf of the Bailey family enunciated each word clearly.
His tone was filled with timidity.
He thought that Marina must have come to punish him because of his incompetence.
“Wrong!” However, Marina said immediately.
