Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15

Marina used both sleeves to wipe the tears clean from Jessica’s face.

Now they were all ruined. Not only were her shoes dirty, but her clothes were too.

“Marina, quickly. Check if there are any plane tickets left for tonight. I’ll handle Richard Grayson’s revenge,” Jessica urged with a sniffle.

“How do you plan to handle it with your small body that is thinner than paper?” Marina glanced at her.

“I… Anyway, you don’t need to worry about it. He likes my sister, so he will cut me some slack,” Jessica said slowly.

“Ha? Did you cry too long earlier, so your brain lacked oxygen, making you st***id? Your sister, Sophia, wants to kill you badly. Will Richard Grayson let you go because he likes your sister?” Marina sneered.

“Anyway… Don’t worry about these things. I can handle it myself. You should hurry up and book your plane ticket.” Jessica knew the lie she had just told was too flimsy.

She was never good at lying.

“Jessica, didn’t I tell you my true identity?” Marina let out a long sigh. “I’m strong.”

“Huh?” Jessica looked puzzled.

“After going back tonight, you can search the Bailey Group online. You will find that you have opened the door to a new world.” Marina spoke in a leisurely tone.

The expression on Jessica’s face became even more confused.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you back first.” The shoes couldn’t be cleaned, and the clothes were stained. Marina’s current mood could hardly be said to be good.

If it weren’t for Jessica being around, she probably would not have been able to control her emotions.

“L…” Jessica wanted to say something, but Marina interrupted her.

“I have a severe headache now. Can we get out of here first?”

“Headache? Did you get hurt just now? Do you need to go to the hospital?” When Jessica heard that, she completely ignored everything else.

“It’s an old problem. I’ll go home and take some medicine and rest. It’ll be fine,” Marina replied in a calm

tone.

“Then let’s get out of here quickly.” When Jessica heard that, she didn’t want to waste more time.

“Sure.” It was more than Marina could ask for.

After leaving the club, Marina suggested she give Jessica a ride home.

However, Jessica thought she meant to take a taxi and refused.

She said, “Taxi fares are too expensive. I rode a shared bike here and must ride it back.” She looked at the shared bike by the flower bed.

Among the luxury cars, the shared bike seemed quite shabby.

Chapter 15

Marina was left speechless.

“Marina, take a taxi back home quickly if you have a headache. I’ll leave first.” Jessica paid no heed to Marina’s expression and rode away on her shared bike.

She was well aware of the history between Marina and her sister.

If Marina had taken her back and run into Sophia, she would have been hurt.

Jessica could only refuse her in a gentle way like that.

Marina didn’t say anything.

Watching Jessica’s back as she walked away, Marina couldn’t help but think.

“Who told her that I was going to take a taxi?

“This silly girl probably still thinks I am the same person I was back then, with no family or money.”

However, since Jessica had already walked far away, Marina didn’t bother to catch up.

She took out her phone and prepared to call Lee to pick her up.

Before she even had a chance to dial, a limited edition Maybach stopped in front of her.

Marina glanced up lightly and then moved to the side.

However, the car followed her over.

Marina was helpless and confused.

“What’s wrong with the driver of this car?” she thought.

She put away her phone and approached to see who was so bold as to confront her.

When the car window was down, Marina’s expression froze when she saw the handsome man inside.

“You…” Marina lifted her hand and pointed straight at the man in the car.

It was rare for her to be tongue-tied.

“Get in the car, and we’ll talk.” Simon Hernandez moved his thin lips.

His voice was like the coldest mountain stream, making people tremble.

However, Marina didn’t know that Simon’s tone had already softened as much as possible at that moment.

She felt that he was deliberately provoking her. After she returned to her senses, she pulled open the car door and got inside.

This p****y had been giving her a hard time looking for him, but she hadn’t expected him to come to her.

Now she would show him that she wasn’t easy to flirt with.

She had to cut off those paws that had touched her.

“You…” Just as Marina was about to speak, the car suddenly slammed on the brakes.

She was unprepared and fell forward…

Right into the arms of Simon Hernandez…

Chapter 15

Her nose hurt from hitting his hard chest.

But there was a familiar cold fragrance that smelled surprisingly good.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Hernandez, a black dog suddenly ran out in front.” Gavin Johnson apologized quickly.

He was surprised to see a faint smile appear at the corner of Mr. Hernandez’s mouth.

His pupils instantly widened.

Had he gone blind?

Why had Mr. Hernandez smiled?

But he clearly made a mistake.

Gavin started to doubt himself.

Meanwhile, Marina regained her senses and rubbed her nose while glaring at the driver’s seat.

“How much did you pay for driving school? If you put that little black dog in the driver’s seat, it would drive better than you!”

Because she was sitting in the back seat, she did not see Gavin Johnson’s face.

Otherwise, she would recognize that Gavin Johnson was the one who signed the refund contract with her.

Gavin Johnson was silent for a while.

He had always been praised for his intelligence and outstanding abilities.

This was the first time someone had despised him so much.

When he thought of Marina’s identity and Mr. Hernandez’s attitude just now, he could only silently endure it.

He started the car again. This time, he drove smoother than before.

Seeing that the other party did not retort, Marina retracted her gaze.

She looked up and met Simon’s deep black eyes.

Only then did she realize that their current posture was like she was embracing him initiatively.

Marina immediately pulled away from Simon’s embrace and pressed herself against the car door.

Her posture suggested that even a slight touch from Simon Hernandez would make her uncomfortable.

Simon didn’t seem to mind her actions and handed her the bag beside him..

“What is it?” Marina furrowed her eyebrows.

“Open it and see,” Simon Hernandez replied.

“You don’t get something for nothing. Don’t think that giving me a gift will make you live a few more. moments before dying.” A coldness flickered in Marina’s black eyes as she clenched her fists.

Since being manipulated by Gordon Campbell and spending the night with a stranger man….

She had been particularly resistant to men approaching her, and Simon Hernandez had aalmost forced her to sleep with him before.

Chapter 15

She naturally couldn’t let him get away.

In the next moment, however, Simon’s words made it difficult for her to swing her fists.
