Chapter 9
“Don’t worry, I will definitely bring that b***ard to you and make him apologize to you on his knees!”
Peter hurriedly stretched out three fingers and swore.
Although Marina had not finished speaking, he had already felt a sense of oppression.
“Hmph.”
Looking at him like this, Marina coldly snorted but did not say anything more.
She got up and went upstairs.
After Marina left, the look on Peter’s face also dissipated.
That despicable guy actually dared to insult Marina!
If he found him, he would have him dismembered!
Peter rolled up his sleeves and left.
Marina went back to her bedroom. She had just reset the security system for the villa, and Sev and
Oscar had been guarding the outside.
Now, not even a fly could get in without her permission.
But after her sleep was interrupted, Marina had trouble falling back asleep.
The irritation in her heart was so strong that she wanted to kill someone.
As she lifted the covers and prepared to go to bed, she noticed a dark blue scarf on her pillow.
Marina moved her body and picked it up.
The texture and workmanship of the scarf were very good, so it was probably worth a lot of money.
There was a totem embroidered on the back, looking somewhat odd. Marina brought it closer and still
didn’t recognize it, but she smelled the faint fragrance on the scarf.
For some reason, she felt familiar with the fragrance.
However, she couldn’t remember where she had smelled it.
This fragrance miraculously suppressed some of the overwhelming depression in Marina’s heart.
So, Marina put the square scarf over her face and slowly closed her eyes.
Although Marina managed to fall asleep with the help of the scarf, she slept very unsteadily because
she inexplicably dreamed of the night she was set up by Gordon.
She dreamed of the man whose face she couldn’t see clearly, leading her to sink and float over and
over again.
His big hands seemed as if they were tainted with magic.
The places he touched were as hot as fire.
The deliberately suppressed panting sound rang out in the ears over and over again.
He subdued his voice but did not subdue his actions at all.
The rough and brutal action was almost as if he wanted to tear her whole body apart.
She sensed the feeling of being owned for the first time, and by the time everything ended, she was so
tired. that her consciousness was blurred…
And what clung to her was also a seemingly fresh scent…
The next morning, when Marina woke up, she just felt exhausted.
It was as if she was experiencing the same thing she had experienced in her dream all over again.
She obviously hadn’t dreamed about that night for a long time.
She guessed it was all because she ran into Gordon and Sophia yesterday.
It was really bad luck!
It was already unpleasant for Marina to bump into her enemies.
Last night, she almost let a man she didn’t know see her naked.
At that moment, Marina hadn’t slept well, so she was getting more and more restless.
But there were still a lot of things waiting for her to deal with.
Marina was so irritated that she didn’t even have breakfast and went out with Sev and Oscar.
The two looked at Marina’s tightly knitted brows. They were all dead silent..
When the lady was feeling upset, it was best that no one should mess with her!
Marina was going to visit the person in charge of Wesiville today.
This matter could not be delayed any longer..
After going over there, she saw that the person in charge of the reception was a beautiful secretary. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
The beautiful secretary politely led Marina to the lounge.
“Miss Bailey, please take a break here first. Our boss is in a meeting right now. He will come to see you
as soon as the meeting is over.” Her attitude was quite good.
“Okay.” That pleasing voice also slightly soothed Marina’s headache and made her a little more patient.
But for the next hour, the beautiful secretary kept using the same words every time to pacify Marina
and her bodyguards.
In the end, no matter how sweet and pleasant her voice was to the ears, she couldn’t appease Marina
anymore.
Marina looked at the time. She had been waiting for an hour and a half.
She then got up straight away and walked out of the lounge.
“Miss Bailey, are you going back? Let me walk you out,” the beautiful secretary hurriedly greeted her.
“Where is your boss having a meeting?” However, Marina just asked a question in a cold voice.
“Our boss…” The secretary froze for a moment.
“He’s not at the office?” Marina instantly caught the emotion in her eyes.
“‘Well… there was just a little emergency that came up, and our boss rushed off to take care of it.
Because he left in such a hurry, he didn’t have time to say hello to you, Miss Bailey.” The secretary
quickly managed to calm herself down.
“Is that so? It seems that your boss is very busy.” Marina’s dark eyes narrowed.
“Indeed. Why don’t you go back today, Miss Bailey? And I will give you a call when our boss is free
some other. day.”
“No need. I’m not as busy as your boss. I can go to him in person. You just need to tell me where your
boss is.” Marina rejected the beautiful secretary’s offer outright.
“Well…” The beautiful secretary frowned at once.
“What, don’t tell me you don’t know where your boss went to.” Marina’s face darkened in a split second,
and her tone took on a bit of a stern one.
The beautiful secretary suddenly felt she could not deal with the pressure.
Previously, it was Peter who came over every time.
He was a p***boy.
She only needed to smile at him and act cute, and he would leave her alone instead of pestering her.
But now, she was dealing with a woman who was even more beautiful and attractive than her.
Seduction didn’t work for her at all!
Moreover, the aura of this beauty was quite shocking.
In the end, the beautiful secretary had to be honest with Marina and tell her where their boss was.
In the Starris Club’s private room, Robert was holding two women in his arms.
One of the beautiful women beside him was busy putting wine and fruit into his mouth.
He seemed to be enjoying it very much.
“Mr. Robert, are you sure you don’t want to go back and check it out? I mean, Peter’s people are still
waiting. at the office,” Gavin, who was sitting across the table, asked.
“What are you afraid of? He likes to wait, so let him wait a little longer.
“I’ve left Rosie at the office. That m***n simply can’t walk away when he sees a beautiful woman. If he
can’t wait any longer, he will naturally go back,” Robert said and opened his mouth to eat the grapes
handed over by the beautiful woman beside him.
The sweet flavor instantly made him squint his eyes.
“But the president has explained that the land in Wesiville must be returned to the Bailey family.”
Gavin’s eyebrows tightened, feeling very dissatisfied with Robert’s statement.
“I didn’t say I wouldn’t give it back. It’s just that I’m busy right now, right? When I’m free, I’ll return the
land to them,” Robert responded carelessly.
“But…” The man wanted to say something else, but Robert raised his hand and interrupted him in an
impatient manner.
“It’s so rare for you to come to Solemwood, so don’t focus on work all the time. Peter is just a p***boy.
You
have nothing to worry about him.
“You should just have fun. Don’t waste your good time.” Robert gave the other party a look.
Then, he threw himself at the bunch of girls behind him.
Just when the situation was about to get out of hand, the closed door was suddenly pushed open from
the
outside.
The sudden bright light caused the woman underneath Robert to cry out in surprise. She sat up in a
hurry and scrambled to straighten her clothes.
