Returning With A Thousand Favors By Flora Isabel
Chapter 285

Chapter 285 

Simon and Marina instantly looked toward the door 

Gavin immediately went forward to open the door 

The person standing outside the door was actually Oscar. 

Marina immediately walked forward quickly. 

She left the room so as not to disturb Jarod. 

In the corridor, Marina frowned and looked at Oscar in front of her. “Why are you here?” 

“Madam, something happened.” Oscar’s expression was especially serious. 

Marina’s expression changed when she saw him like this. 

“Wait for me upstairs 

“Yes!” Oscar replied. He then turned around and left. 

Marina planned to inform Simon. 

However, as soon as she turned around, she saw Simon coming out of the room. 

“What’s wrong?” Simon asked. 

“I have something urgent to attend to first. Here… Marina blinked. 

“It’s alright. Go and settle your matters first. I’ll take care of things here,” Simon said. 

Marina gritted her teeth. There seemed to be some hesitation in her eyes. 

However, in the end, she did not say anything, 

She nodded. “I’ll be back soon.” 

“Okay,” Simon replied. 

“Hurry up and go in. I can go upstairs myself.” After saying that, Marina went upstairs. 

Looking at Marina’s back, Simon could not help but frown. 

He wondered if she ran into some trouble. 

Sumon thought for a moment and then instructed Gavin to follow Marina. 

Simon wanted to ensure that nothing happened to her. 

Gavin responded and unmediately chased after Marina. 

Upstairs, as soon as Marina saw Oscar, she quickly walked over. 

“What happened?” she asked. 

Oscar had been by her side for many years. If it weren’t something particularly important, he definitely wouldn’t have shown such an expression. 

Moreover, when she left the hospital, Marina had already informed them that they could not reveal her location unless it

was necessary. 

But now that Oscar had come looking for her directly, it was obvious that the matter had already exceeded the scope of their ability to handle it. 

“It’s about the Garcia family,” Oscar explained in a low voice. 

The Garcia family? What’s wrong with the Garcia family?” Marina could not help but frown. 

“Mr. Jeffery is back with Miss Neil!” Oscar announced. 

“What did you say?” Marina’s expression changed when she heard this. 

“We haven’t gone over to check. We only received news that Mr. Jeffery has been kneeling at the gate of the Garcia family’s residence for three days and three nights. He insists on marrying Miss Neil. 

“But Mr. Alfredo disagreed. He said that he wanted to kill Mr. Jeffery directly. People from the Garcia family feared that things would get out of control, so they sent us a message and wanted you to go over and have a look.” 

“Let’s go!” Upon hearing this, Marina did not stay any longer. 

After leaving the gate, she got into the car. 

When Gavin ran out of the gate, Marina was already far away. 

He could only follow quickly. 

Meanwhile, Jeffery was kneeling at the gate of the Garcia family’s residence. 

He had been kneeling there for three days and three nights. 

In the past three days, he had not drunk a single drop of water. 

As a result, he looked extremely weak now. 

His straightened body swayed as if he was about to faint at the next moment. 

However, his hands were tightly clenched into fists. He gritted his teeth and persisted, unwilling to relax for a moment. 

When Marina rushed over, she saw this scene. 

“What are you doing?” Marina frowned and stepped forward. 

Jeffery heard the commotion and looked up slightly. 

Looking at Marina in front of him, he could not help but squeeze out a weak smile. 

“Why? Did my grandfather invite you over to be a… lobbyist?” 

Jeffery’s voice was especially weak. If one did not listen carefully, they would not be able to hear what he was saying. 

“What are you trying to do?” Marina frowned. 

“What else can I do? I just want… to fulfill my promise…” Jeffery’s body swayed. He was about to collapse, but he tried his best 

to stabilize himself. 

Marina looked at him, a mixture of emotions in her eyes. “Get up first. I’ve already sent people to investigate Chrislyn. There 

will be news soon. 

“If she’s really Chrislyn, I will convince your grandfather to let the two of you get married.”

When Jeffery heard this, his expression did not change much. “What else is there to investigate? Do you think I can’t even recognize Chrislyn?” 

“Since you’re so sure, what are you doing now? You’ve already waited for so many years. Can’t you wait for a little longer?” Marina frowned. 

“No, I can’t wait for a second longer! 

“Back then, I kept waiting, which was why I missed out on Chrislyn for so many years…. 

“Now that she has finally returned to my side, I don’t think I can give her another chance to leave me…” Jeffery’s stamina. should have reached its limit. 

As he spoke, his voice trembled uncontrollably. 

On her way here, the Garcia family’s butler had already told Marina about Jeffery’s condition. 

Jeffery hadn’t eaten anything for three days. If this continued, he would probably fall sick. 

Seeing him like this, Marina did not hesitate at all. She stepped forward and directly struck the back of his neck. 

Jeffery, who was already weak, collapsed instantly. 

The butler, who was behind Marina, froze when he saw this scene. 

“Why are you still standing here? Hurry up and carry Jeffery to his room,” Marina immediately ordered. 

“Y–yes. The butler immediately called the servants over and carried Jeffery into the house with difficulty. 

Marina called out to the butler and stopped him. 

“Miss Bailey. The butler looked at Marina respectfully. 

Among the Four Families, the Garcia and Bailey families could be considered friends for generations. 

Marina often came to the Garcia family’s residence when she was young. 

Therefore, the butler respected Marina. 

“Go and tell Mr. Garcia that Jeffe 

said. 

has been kneeling for too long. His body can’t take it anymore and he fainted,” Marina 

“What?” When the butler heard this, his expression became a little awkward. 

“What are you waiting for? Didn’t you ask 

to come and save him? Hurry up and do as I say,” Marina urged again. 

“Yes!” The butler immediately turned to look for Alfredo. 

Meanwhile, Marina went to Jeffery’s room. 

After three days without any water, Jeffery’s lips had already cracked. 

Marina instructed the servants to moisten his lips with a wet cotton swab. 

Then, she asked them to make some light porridge. 

After that, she checked Jeffery’s condition. 

When Alfredo and the others came in, they saw a serious–looking Marina. 

“Marina, how… is he?” Although Alfredo had already tried his best to suppress his emotions, his trembling voice could still

tell his true emotions at this moment.
