Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22

But thinking that Gordon was here, Marina didn’t pull her hand back.

Gordon’s face was as dark as the night sky.

“Let’s go.” Acting as if nothing had happened, Simon wiped Marina’s fingers clean and then led her to the car

next to him.

Gordon stood in place. Looking at the two figures leaving arm in arm, he tightly gritted his teeth.

Peter, who was initially playing a game in the car while waiting for Marina, cursed in a low voice after being. killed in the game. And he did not expect that when he looked up, he would see Marina being led by a man to

the car.

Peter’s eyes widened when he saw this scene. He couldn’t care less about the game, which wasn’t over yet, and opened the car door and rushed down.

But it was already too late. The car had already driven away.

“D***n it! Who the hell is so bold as to dare to take away my Marina in front of me!”

Peter was so angry that he turned around and returned to his car. Then he stepped on the gas and immediately chased after them.

And when Gordon saw this scene, the look on his face became even more complicated.

“Caroline is really something. She’s actually dealing with two men and can still be at ease.” At this time, a soft voice sounded behind Gordon,

It was Sophia.

Gordon frowned instantly when he heard her.

“Since she has degraded herself, then let her be!” Gordon turned around and picked up the check on the ground before heading back to the villa.

However, Sophia looked back in the direction Marina left, and an intense hatred filled her eyes.

She shouted inwardly, “Marina, why on earth did you come back?”

On the other hand, Marina got into the car before suddenly realizing she had actually left with her enemy.

She narrowed her eyes and looked at the man beside her.

“I should have told you before that I’ll rip your head off your neck the next time we meet again, right?”

“Is it because of what happened last time when I broke into your room by mistake?” Simon, however, did not look the least bit scared.

“Seems like you know that.” Thinking about that night, a hint of danger instantly flashed across Marina’s

eyes.

“What happened that night was just a misunderstanding. My nephew rented that house for me. I didn’t know that you were already living in it.

“If you are still angry, you can beat up my nephew again,” Simon said carelessly.

If Robert, who was still lying in the hospital bed, had heard this, he would have jumped up and sung a song

immediately.

[And I want to thank you for giving me the best day of my life…]

“Even if someone rented you the wrong house, you should leave immediately when you see someone lying. on the bed! But you did something you shouldn’t do!” Marina wasn’t that easy to fool.

“Would you believe me if I said… that you asked for it first?” Simon said slowly.

“What did you say?” Marina’s face froze instantly when she heard this.

“It was you who shouted that it was cold and then took the initiative to stick yourself to me,” Simon said with a sincere face.

Marina did not know what to say.

Ever since that car accident, her body constitution changed drastically.

She became drowsy all the time and was extraordinarily afraid of the cold.

So that could happen when she was sleeping and instinctively seeking a source of warmth.

“Then you could have pushed me away!” Marina instantly hid the emotions under her eyes.

She was almost convinced by this man.

“Take a good look at me.” Yet the man across the seat made a very untimely request.

“Look at you for what? You want me to remember your last moments left on earth?” Marina ground her

teeth.

“No, I want you to take a good look at me, a single man in his prime. When a pretty-faced and s***y woman presses herself against me, can I still be considered a healthy man if I push her away?” Simon’s thin lips. parted slightly.

“Judging from your words, I guess you’re just a s***bag who never rejects any woman. Such a person. deserves to die even more!” Marina’s eyes burst out with a hint of killing intent.

“You’re mistaken. I only won’t reject you.” Simon’s eyes welled up with a hint of darkness.

Marina was speechless.

“Sweet words, huh? S***bag!” Marina gritted her teeth.

“If you don’t believe me, you can stay by my side for a good observation and see if the truth is what I say it is.” Simon’s tone was calm.

Marina thought, “Observation?

“I’m afraid there’s no need to do so.”

“Stop the car. I want to get off!” She thought Simon was good at talking b***lshit. She was afraid that if she continued to stay with him like this, she would not be able to resist blowing his head off.

“It’s not easy to get a taxi here. Aren’t you sleepy? You can sleep for a while, and I’ll wake you up when we get home.” Simon really didn’t care about the murderous aura in Marina’s eyes at all.

He only gently pressed a button next to the seat, and Marina’s seat slowly reclined.

Marina’s whole body instantly lay down flat.

Simon got up again and took out a small blanket from the chest in front of him.

The moment he got up, Marina instantly smelled a pleasant cold scent.

It was exactly the same as the one on his handkerchief.

Marina was lost in her thoughts for a moment.

And during this time, Simon had already put the blanket over her body.

The smell of that scent became even stronger.

Marina felt her swollen and aching head was soothed.

“What is this smell?” Marina murmured.

“What?” Simon didn’t quite catch it.

“The smell of the blanket.”

“Does the blanket smell?” Simon moved up and sniffed it, but he didn’t smell anything.

However, because of his action, the distance between the two was brought closer instantly.

Two equally beautiful and perfect faces were so close together.

Marina felt that Simon’s breath was entwined with hers.

The atmosphere in the back seat seemed to have become ambiguous.

For some reason, looking at the pair of black eyes in front of her, Marina felt her heart beat a little faster.

She couldn’t help but grab the blanket on her body with her hands. Then she turned around.

“I’m going to rest. So don’t disturb me!” she said.

“Okay, you take a good rest, and I won’t disturb you.” Looking at Marina’s back, Simon gave a low laugh and then sat back in his seat.

Marina felt a little strange about her unexplained panic, so she closed her eyes at once and didn’t think about

it.

However, what she did not expect was to fall asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.

In just a few minutes, her breathing became steady.

But Simon’s gaze landed on the window glass across the seat.

Marina’s peaceful sleeping face was reflected on it.

The sleeping Marina became gentle from her head to toe.

Without the sharpness when she was awake, she looked like an incomparably well-behaved kitten.

The smile at the corner of Simon’s mouth couldn’t help but deepen.

He thought, “Though Marina is a little wild, she’s also easy to coax.”
