Chapter 38
“No… No need…” Robert wanted to refuse subconsciously, but Simon gave him a look right away.
Robert’s body suddenly stiffened. Then, he took the phone from Marina Bailey respectfully, with his hands put together.
“Thank you!” In the end, he did not forget to thank her.
Tsk, tsk, tsk. When Marina saw him like this, she could only shake her head in sympathy.
This little fool would probably be crippled in the future.
Marina got up and looked back at Simon. “Let’s go.”
“Mm, Simon replied gently. The expression on his face had completely dissipated.
He no longer felt the killing intent toward Robert Fernandez from before.
Instead, it felt like a spring breeze when looking at him.
Robert’s body trembled even more violently.
Oh no, oh no. He might really not have long to live. He was actually hallucinating.
How could his third uncle, who was known as the living King of Hell, show such a gentle expression?
And it was toward a woman!
Robert immediately picked up his phone and prepared to record his last words.
He would tell his father, that when he buried him, to remember to take the figurines that he had collected for many years to be buried with him.
However, when he opened his phone and saw the game settlement page, his eyes suddenly widened.
He quickly brought the phone close to his eyes and looked at it carefully several times.
In six minutes, he had killed 12 enemies, and each of the kills was a headshot.
Was that what the woman was doing with his phone?
But he clearly saw that she was controlling her phone with one hand.
Moreover, she had a lazy expression throughout the entire process and did not look serious at all.
Just now, he even thought that she had deactivated his account.
But she actually gave him such a heaven-defying result?
Robert looked at his phone, wanting to see the direction Marina left in.
Then, he kissed his phone a few times and quickly took a screen capture before posting it on his social media.
A minute later, Robert’s phone was about to explode from the influx of notifications.
At the same time, Marina had already come out of the hospital.
She looked up at Simon who was in front of her. “I still have some things to deal with. Let’s part here.”
“You still owe me a meal.” Simon’s thin lips parted slightly.
Tll contact you when I’m done.” Marina thought about Sheldon Brown’s saber technique, agreeing in the end.
Okay, I’ll wait for you.” After getting Marina’s answer, the expression in Simon’s eyes instantly softened.
“Okay,” Marina replied. Then, she bent down and got into her car,
A moment later, the car rushed out like a wild horse.
Seeing the car disappear from sight in the blink of an eye, Simon thought that perhaps he should not let her touch the steering wheel again.
After Marina returned to the villa, Oscar and Lee had just come back from dealing with the follow-up matters.
“Miss Bailey!” Oscar and Lee bowed respectfully to Marina.
“Is everything settled?” She sat lazily on the sofa.
She raised her hand and pinched the space between her eyebrows,
Without Simon’s unique scent, she could feel that her body was showing signs of restlessness that she could not hold back.
“We’ve already taken control of the troublemakers. They said that they were from the Hernandez Group. It was Robert Hernandez who asked them to ambush Mr. Moore,” Lee said.
“Hmph, they’re still being stubborn at a time like this.” When Marina heard Lee’s words, she snorted coldly in response.
“Miss Bailey, do you think they lied?” Lee frowned,
“I don’t think it was Robert Hernandez this time.” As she thought of the guy who would use “back at you” in a quarrel, Marina felt that this matter definitely would not be his doing.
“If it’s not the Hernandez family’s doing, then is it… one of our own?” Lee followed Marina’s train of thought and instantly understood what she meant.
“I don’t think I need to teach you what to do next, right?” Marina raised her eyebrows,
“I’ll investigate it immediately!” Lee bowed his head right away and replied.
“Alright.” Marina nodded, then asked, “Where’s Peter Moore?”
“Mr. Moore has returned to his room to rest,” Lee said.
Marina made a sound of acknowledgment and asked no further. She stood up and walked upstairs.
Although Peter’s fighting skills were a little lacking, she had trained his physique to take beatings since young.
With only such minor injuries, he would be alive and kicking in less than three days.
When Marina returned to her room, she was not able to fall asleep at all.
As she lay on the bed, she felt that something was not right.
She was clearly the one who chose this bed, but it was not as comfortable as that guy’s bed.
She really wanted to sleep there for another night….
She really wanted to borrow his body again…
Marina opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling above her head. In the end, she forced herself to close her eyes.
That guy was the class monitor of the male class. If she really went to borrow his body again, she might just have to repay
him with her own body.
Yup, quit thinking about it!
Marina muttered to herself. However, no matter how much she tried to hypnotize herself, she could not fall asleep.
She stayed up until the skies turned bright, and finally could not take it anymore. She got up from the bed and turned on the computer beside her.
She searched for a name in her customized search box.
In just a moment, more than ten resumes popped up.
After careful screening, Marina found the person that she wanted.
She took a look at the contact information.
Then she dialed the number immediately.
“Hello?” The person on the other end of the line was probably still half awake as his voice was still hoarse.
“It’s me,” Marina said simply.
The person on the other end of the line was silent for a moment. Then, there was a sudden crackling sound.
She did not know if the person had bumped into something or fallen off the bed.
“Miss… Bailey?” An extremely respectful old voice came from the other end of the phone.
“It’s me. I need a laboratory, but I don’t have one in Solemwood. I wonder if you have any spare ones?” Marina directly explained her purpose for calling.
“Yes, of course! Miss Bailey, you can have as many as you want!” Dr. Liam said repeatedly.
“Alright, I’ll go to the hospital to look for you later.” Marina was about to hang up when she remembered something and added, “I’ll pay rent!”
“Miss Bailey, what are you saying? You’ve made such a great contribution to our medicine. Not to mention lending you a laboratory, I can even give you my title as the director.” Dr. Liam’s tone was extremely excited.
Marina could not help but laugh. This little old man was quite cute.
“By the way, Miss Bailey, what research direction are you intending to use the laboratory for? I can make arrangements for you here,” Dr. Liam asked as he put on his clothes.
“Fragrance.” Marina narrowed her dark eyes and said one word.
“Fra… fragrance?” Dr. Liam’s voice paused slightly as if he wanted to make sure that he had heard correctly.
