Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10

“Who the hell is out there?” Being interrupted like that, Robert looked up with an impatient expression.

However, he did not expect to see a very beautiful woman standing at the door.

Robert immediately lost interest in the woman beside him and greeted her with a smile on his face.

“Yo, I think you must be new here. I’ve never seen you before. Well done, Henry! You never fail me on this.” Robert thought Marina was a woman sent to him by the manager to be his companion, and he was ready to get his hands on her while greeting her.

However, before his hand could touch Marina, it was suddenly twisted by a large hand.

Then, a cracking sound was heard.

Robert’s hand was instantly broken.

After that, miserable screams could be heard in the private room.

A

“Who are you people?” Seeing that unexpected situation, Gavin’s face darkened. He immediately got up and

went forward.

But the next moment, someone held him back.

Seeing this, the beautiful women in the room huddled together into a ball.

“I’m here for Robert. You may leave now.” Marina shot an indifferent glance at the bunch of women.

They immediately rushed out of the room as if they were prisoners that had just been released.

The originally lively private room instantly fell into dead silence.

Marina lowered her eyes and threw a look at Robert whose face went pale from the pain. Then, she slowly sat on the couch at one side.

“Mr. Hernandez, your secretary told me that you were awfully busy. I thought it was something important you were dealing with. So, this is what you’ve been busy with, right? Drinking wine and playing games with those pretty women?”

She kicked the wine bottles that were s***d around her feet as she said that.

“Who… are you?” Robert asked through gritted teeth, trying to endure the pain.

“Me? You can call me Miss Bailey.” She slightly parted her red lips, with a hint of arrogance in her eyes.

“Yeah, f***k you. Now, I want you to get on your knees and apologize to me. Or I swear I’ll… ah…” Before he could finish saying his threat, he had to take another punch to his stomach.

His words turned into a painful whimper in an instant.

“Mr. Hernandez, you see I’m one of those civilized people. I thought we could have a nice talk about the ownership of the land in Wesiville.

“But

you

wouldn’t want to cooperate. You have forced a weak woman like me to knock some senses into you. Now, I don’t think that’s really necessary. Don’t you think so?” she added and raised her hand to appreciate her newly-decorated nails.

She sounded very calm when she said that.

Chapter 10.

“Wesiville… land? You are with Peter?” Robert came back to his senses.

“No.” Her red lips slightly parted.

“Then, what f****ng business do you have with the land in Wesiville?” He gritted his teeth.

“Peter works for me.” She finally gave him a look.

“Who… the hell are you?” Robert’s eyes turned darker.

“Didn’t I just give you my answer, Mr. Hernandez? You must have a bad memory. No wonder you’ve been hogging the piece of land in Wesiville without giving it back. Did you forget that you were already behind rent on that?” Marina said word by word.

“So, you were sent here by the Bailey family?” Gavin, who was manhandled by Oscar, instantly came back to his senses.

He looked shocked when he asked that.

“Yup. You look a lot smarter than him.” Marina threw a glance at Gavin.

“The Bailey family? So what? Even if you’re from the Bailey family, do you think you could just hit me like that? Do you know who I am?”

He didn’t care about anything about the Bailey family. He would never take this lying on the ground now that he had suffered so much humiliation today.

“I don’t need to know who you are. I’ve brought the document here. Just sign it and we are good to go,” Marina said in an indifferent manner.

“Get the fuck out of here. You beat me up and want me to give you the land? You must be out of your f***king

mind!

“That piece of land is going to be an offer you give me as compensation!” He could never let others share his benefits.

“Compensation?” Marina forced a smile and snorted dismissively. “What makes you think you deserve that?”

“You!” His face went pale in a fit of anger. He wanted to stand up and teach that arrogant and overbearing woman a lesson.

But he could not move at all when Sev was holding him down.

“Let me ask you one last time. Are you going to sign it or not?” Marina started to have a headache again. Her voice was also much colder.

“Hell no!” Róbert rejected it without hesitation.

“Okay, very impressive. I’d like to spare your life after seeing that you’re kind of a tough guy.” She rubbed her forehead and gestured to Sev.

Sev already got his fist in a ready-to-fight position. It instantly landed on Robert when he heard her order.

His fist rained on Robert, rendering him almost incapacitated.

“Miss Bailey, please spare him. You and I have been doing business together. If you take this too far, it wouldn’t be too good for you when the family elders find out.”

Gavin, who was sitting across from them, hurriedly spoke up.

Chapter 10

His president had ordered him to take good care of Robert before.

He couldn’t watch him getting killed.

“What? So, you’re threatening me with the Hernandez family?” Hearing this, Marina lowered her hand and gave him a look through her narrowed eyes.

“Not like that. But what Miss Bailey wants is just a piece of land in Wesiville. Since that’s the case, you don’t have to take this too far, right?” Gavin said slowly.

“But he didn’t want to sign it.” Marina looked very upset at the moment.

“I can do that for him!” he immediately said.

If they kept beating Robert, he’d really be killed.

“You get to take charge of this thing?” Hearing this, she was finally interested.

“I’m now the personal assistant to the head of the Hernandez family. I came to Solemwood this time to dea! with the land in Wesiville,” he explained.

Marina stared at him for a while and found that he wasn’t lying. Then, she gave Sev a signal with her eyes.

Though employed in beating him up, Sev managed to stop what he was doing.

At this point, Robert almost passed out on the ground.

Gavin took a glance at him and found that his chest was still moving.

He heaved a sigh of relief.

He just wanted him to stay alive.

Marina reached out her hand, and Sev immediately handed her the document.

“Sign it.” She threw the document in front of Gavin.

He didn’t hesitate and immediately signed his name on it.

Then, he stamped it with Hernandez Group’s seal.

Marina took the document and took a glance at the signature.

Upon making sure there was no problem, she closed it.

Oscar, who was holding back Gavin, also released him.

Being set free, Gavin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“I’ll give you three days to get your ass out of Wesiville, or you’ll be accountable.” She got up and gave a warning to Gavin.

Then, she turned and left the room.

When the slender figure disappeared at the gate, Gavin walked over to check on Robert’s condition.
