Returning With A Thousand Favors By Flora Isabel
Chapter 202

Chapter 202 

Gordon had previously told Sophia that she couldn’t come to Janeborough. 

But why did he show up here right now? 

Did he intentionally deceive her? 

“No way. 

“That’s impossible,” she thought. 

From her understanding of Gordon, he would never deceive her. 

So, he must have had no choice but to continue staying in Solemwood. 

But he could come to Room Janeborough now. 

She didn’t want to delve into the reasons behind this. All she had to do now was to find a way to make Gordon forgive her for what she had done in the past as soon as possible. 

She lowered her eyes slightly with emotions surged within. 

At the same time, Simon had already driven Marina to her home, the Bailey family’s mansion. 

“Thank you for driving me back,” Marina said as she was about to open the door and get out of the car. 

However, Simon grabbed her wrist instantly. 

Marina looked back with a confused face. 

“Aren’t you going to invite me in?” asked Simon. 

He lowered his voice with a faint light flashing in the depths of his eyes. 

She got it instantly. 

Then she turned around and came up to him. 

The distance between the two of them couldn’t be closer. 

The look in Simon’s eyes also deepened. 

He couldn’t help but wrap his arms around Marina’s waist. 

Marina raised her eyes slightly and stared at Simon with a burning gaze. She said, “Have you heard of a saying?” 

“What saying?” Simon’s heart was already beating and bouncing. 

Marina moved closer to Simon’s lips. Simon thought that she wanted to kiss him and subconsciously raised his head. However, at this moment, Marina suddenly took a step back. 

There was a hint of confusion in Simon’s eyes. 

However, she smiled and opened her mouth, “Mr. Hernandez, indulging in your lust is equivalent to hanging a knife upon your head. 

“Take a look at this place. This is my house. My grandfather and brother are both at home. 

“If you’re not afraid of death, just follow me in. And I’ll probably get someone to find a good graveyard tomorrow and bury you in glory,” she added.

These words also woke Simon up a little more. 

He glanced at the Bailey family’s mansion and finally let go of her. 

She said, “Alright, I’m getting out.” Marina’s smile deepened as she looked at Simon’s awkward behavior. 

This time, Simon did not stop her. 

He could only watch as she entered the mansion. 

It was not until her figure completely disappeared at the gate that Simon slowly withdrew his gaze. 

“If I walk in and tell Chuck that I want to marry Marina immediately, what are the chances of him agreeing to it?” asked Simon. 

Sitting in front, Gavin raised his eyebrows when he heard this. 

“I think… it’s completely impossible.” 

“I think so, too.” Simon sighed in frustration. 

Although Chuck had indeed agreed to his marriage proposal. 

But, up until now, he didn’t have any intention of getting Marina settled at all.. 

Previously, Simon had asked him indirectly if he wanted to hold an engagement party first. 

But Chuck always tried to avoid this topic and kept moving on to other subjects. 

He didn’t want to hold an engagement banquet, so how could he agree to their marriage? 

What a sad thing. 

Simon felt like a strange man without a decent relationship with the Bailey family. 

“However, Mr. Hernandez, it seems to be Chuck’s birthday in a month. If you can pick up a good gift to cheer him up, he might be able to relent. 

“Moreover, the birthday celebration will bring back all his other family members. If you can seize this opportunity and obtain their approval, your marriage will be set in stone.” 

When Simon heard this, the expression in his eyes instantly changed. 

“Well, that’s a good suggestion.” 

“Yeah. Then, Mr. Hernandez, do you have any reward for me?” Gavin’s eyes lit up. 

“Now it’s your task to prepare a good gift for Chuck. If you can do a good job, the reward won’t be less,” said Simon. 

When Gavin heard this, his expression froze. 

Why did he feel like he had shot himself in the foot? 

“What if… what if I can’t do this job well?” Gavin asked tentatively. 

“You know what will happen.” Simon gave him a cold look.. 

“Damn it. 

“If I knew it would be like this, I wouldn’t say so much just now,” Gavin thought.

“Let’s go back.” Simon’s mood was much better than before.

Chapter 202 

“Yes.” Gavin felt quite upset. 

He was most afraid of preparing gifts for the people in the Four Families. 

After all, people like them had already seen all kinds of good things in the world. 

So the gift should neither be too common, nor too petty, nor too generous. 

If it’s too common, they would think that you have no taste. 

If it’s too petty, they would not bother to continue socializing with you. 

If it’s too generous, they would have to follow this rule in the future, which is equivalent to asking for trouble. 

“Damn it!” 

Regretfully, Gavin wished he could go back a minute ago and cover his mouth.. 

He desperately wished he could have stopped himself from making that idea that brought him trouble. 

Meanwhile, Marina had already entered the house. 

The servant immediately went forward to prepare shoes for her. 

“Miss. Bailey, Mrs. Campbell is back,” the servant said. 

“Jessica?” Marina was stunned. 

“Yes.” The servant knew that Jessica was personally brought back by Marina, so she especially informed her. 

“Why did she suddenly come back today? She didn’t even tell me.” When Marina heard this, her eyes lit up. 

“Mrs. Campbell came back with Mr. Moore. I remember he said he was looking for some books. He should be in the study right now,” the servant explained. 

“I got it. I’ll go up and see her,” Marina Bailey said and walked straight to the study. 

It had been a long time since the last time she last saw Jessica. 

Most of the time, the two of them could only communicate on the phone. 

However, she heard that Jessica did her job well with Peter. 

Moreover, the people in the company seemed to like her very much. 

She could also know from her words that she also quite enjoyed her current job when they were chatting. 

Meanwhile, in the study, Jessica Rodriguez was standing in front of the bookshelf, carefully selecting books. 

She was now officially Peter’s secretary. 

After this period of work, she realized that her knowledge was really too shallow. 

Hence, she wanted to learn a foreign language because the company still had many collaboration projects with foreign companies. 

However, when she encountered such a situation, she could not help at all. 

She once mentioned to Peter that she wanted to learn a foreign language. 

She had originally said that she wanted to go to the bookstore to buy some books for study. 

O 

Chapter 202 

But Peter said there was no need because the books in the bookstores might not be as complete as the Bailey family’s study. 

So he brought her back here to pick up books without hesitation. 

Just as Jessica was flipping through the book in her hand, someone suddenly walked behind her and hugged her waist..
