Chapter 366
“Because Simon’s biological father did not treat her well wholeheartedly!” Mary felt anger burning in her when she thought of this.
“Lyla is really the best woman in the world. She loves Simon’s biological father wholeheartedly.
“However, Simon’s father is unwilling to live a mediocre life and wants to fight for the position of the head of the family”
“That’s not a big deal. After all, who doesn’t want to hold power?” Marina did not think that was inacceptable.
“But he shouldn’t have put all his hopes on what he wanted on Lyla.
“Lyla sacrificed so much to fulfill his wish. In the end, she even sacrificed her life.
“But what about him? In the blink of an eye, he married someone else. He is the most heartless person I have ever seen!”
Mary did not talk too much about the details.
However, these things were enough for Marina to picture what had happened.
“So you didn’t allow Simon and I to be together because his biological father turned his back on your good friend?
“But what does this have to do with him? That’s a grudge between the previous generation. He shouldn’t be paying the price,” Marina said firmly
“Although the gene is very likely to be inherited, it is not because of this that I disagree with you two dating.
“Actually, when I was pregnant with you, I even arranged an arranged marriage for you with Simon,” Mary said.
“What’s the reason, then?” Marina frowned.
“Your Aunt Lyla’s identity is not simple. There was another reason for her death back then.
“However, before Lyla passed away, she told me not to investigate the cause of her death.
“She told me not to tell Simon either. It’s just that Simon has never given up on finding the reason for his mother’s death all these years..
“Back then, Lyla was able to help Simon’s biological father sit firmly in the position of the family head by herself.
“Moreover, she was able to promote the Hernandez family to the Four Families. This is enough to show that the strength supporting her can’t be underestimated.
“If Simon keeps going after the truth behind Lyla’s death, he might be in danger. Even the people around him might be in danger.
“Marina, I don’t want you to date him because no man in the Hernandez family is willing to be ordinary”
“Simon is even more ambitious than his father. As a mother, I hope my daughter can enjoy the most unique love in the world.
“You don’t have to force yourself for the glory of your family or even other things.”
This was the first time Mary had talked to Marina about this.
Marina stared at Mary for a long time before smiling.
“Mom, Simon is definitely different from his father. He won’t betray me.”
Marina still had this bit of confidence.
After all, Simon had saved her from danger several times.
He even disregarded his safety.
“How old are you? How many men have you met?
“Most of the love in this world is unreliable.
“If he loves you At this moment, he can do anything for you. However, if he doesn’t love you, he will abandon you like a pair of worn–out shoes.” Mary emphasized each word clearly.
“But I believe in Simon! Just as you said, relationships are unfixed.
“I can’t guarantee that we’ll still be like this in the future, but at least for now, I know he’s the only one in my heart.
“In that case, why couldn’t we enjoy this moment and date?
“If it’s really as you said, I won’t regret it even if we end up like strangers in the future.
“At least for now, I know he truly loves me, and I love him the same. That’s enough.” Marina’s expression was extremely firm.
Marina had never been the indecisive type.
She would not live her current life and worry about the future.
She just wanted to enjoy the present.
Chapter 366
As for the rest, she would think about it when the day came.
Mary looked at Marina and could not help but frown.
“You trust him that much?”
“Yes!” Marina answered without any hesitation.
“If I told you that Simon had a motive for getting close to you from the beginning, would you still be so determined?” Mary’s voice was gentle.
When Marina heard this, the expression on her face could not help but change.
“What… did you say?”
“Simon knew your identity from the beginning. The reason why he kept hovering around you was because he wanted to get close to you.
“Marina, he is not as innocent as you think. There won’t be so many coincidences in this world.
“Simon has never been a kind–hearted person. He doesn’t only value only you and also the status you have,” Mary said firmly.
Marina pursed her lips after hearing this.
After a while, she looked at Mary.
“Is that what’s been bothering you?”
“Don’t you mind?” Seeing that Marina did not seem to care, Mary could not help but frown.
She knew her daughter’s temper the best.
What she hated the most was people lying to her.
But why was she not angry when she knew that Simon had approached her secretly from the beginning?
“Mom, I was born as the daughter of the Bailey family. I am inseparable from the Bailey family.
“For example, if I didn’t have everything I have now, would you still love me? This kind of question is really too childish.”
“For example, Simon is the head of the Hernandez family.
“I can’t abandon his identity and treat him as someone who is isolated from the outside world..
“Mom, I know you’re worried about me. You think like father, like son.
“Or maybe it’s because you’ve always hated Simon’s father for abandoning Aunt Lyla.
“But Simon can’t pay for all of that had happened before.
“Actually, he was also a victim.
“Mom, don’t worry about me. I know what I’m doing.
“As for the cause of Aunt Lyla’s death and her identity, I believe that as a son, investigating the real cause of his biological mother’s death should be something everyone will do.
“If you stop me from dating Simon because this will bring me danger, then my answer is that I won’t accept it.
“Every time you go out on your archeology research, you will encounter many unknown dangers when you enter the tomb.
“But even so, didn’t my dad go down with you every time?
“Mom, I’ve grown up. I can be responsible for the life I choose.
“Most importantly, no matter who I choose to date…”
“You will always be the person I love the most!” Marina looked at Mary firmly.
