Returning With A Thousand Favors By Flora Isabel
Chapter 367

Chapter 367 

Mary was in a daze for a long time. 

This was because Mary’s personality was relatively tough. 

She was more like a strict mother. 

Therefore, when she interacted with Marina, it was always a more serious atmosphere. 

Marina was not that kind of delicate girl. 

Hence, the mother daughter basically never had any particularly warm conversations. 

This was the first time that Marina had told Mary in such a straightforward manner that she loved her. 

Mary’s expression did not change much. 

However, her hands that were placed on her knees had already involuntarily clenched into fists. 

After a long while, she finally calmed herself down. 

Then, she unnaturally avoided Marina’s gaze. 

“You can even say something cheezy like this just to be with Simon. 

“If thinking this way makes you less shy, I can accept it.” Marina saw through Mary’s disguise at a glance. 

“Did you learn your glib tongue from Simon?” Mary snorted.. 

“No. Heis not good at saying anything cheezy” Marina smiled. 

Mary’s expression changed when she saw Marina’s smile. 

However, just by mentioning Simon, she could not hide the smile on her face. 

It was obvious that her daughter was completely mesmerized by Simon. 

After that, Mary did not say anything else. 

She took out a folder and threw it before Marina. 

“What is this?” Marina asked in confusion. 

“These are some photos of your Aunt Lyla and the gift she prepared for you. 

“Only she was gone before you were born. 

“I’ve never wanted to open these old things since Lyla died for fear of touching the memories. 

“But now that you’ve decided to be with Simon, I’ll hand these things to you.” Mary looked at the document bag nostalgically. 

Marina’s eyes lit up when she heard this. 

Finally, she picked up the folder on the table. 

Just as she was about to open it, she suddenly thought of something else. 

She looked at Mary in surprise. 

“So, are you agreeing to me dating Simon now? You won’t try to arrange for me to go on blind dates with others in the future, right?” 

To be honest, Marina was not too upset that her mother did not agree to her being with Simon. 

In any case, whether shie agreed or not, the two of them would not break up. 

What upset her the most was the unexpected matchmaking banquet. 

Moreover, her mother had made it into a banquet. 

That was outrageous. 

“Don’t misunderstand me. I did not say that I agree with you dating Simon. 

“As you said, my thoughts can’t sway you, so your choices naturally can’t sway me either. 

“From now on, the Bailey family would not welcome Simon.” Mary snorted and stood up. 

“I still have something on, so I’ll leave first. Your grandfather’s birthday is coming soon. Pu some effort on getting the birthday gift.” Mary stood up and left. 

“Alright, I got it!” Marina answered loudly. 

Then, she watched Mary leave with a smile.

Chapter 367 

She knew in advance that her mother was stubborn but soft–hearted. 

Marina glanced at the document she held. 

She pondered and decided not to open it here. So, she stood up and quickly left the cafe. 

Marina was so happy that she did not notice a lamiliar car parked in the corner. 

The two people in the car were staring fixedly at Marina. 

“It’s true that children always get rebellious when they grow up. From the looks of it, she must be going to look for Simon again.” Mary snorted in the 

car. 

“Didn’t you give those things to her because you wanted her to look for Simon?” No one else was in the car, so Sam exposed Mary’s thoughts without hesitation. 

However, he still received a cold shot from Mary. 

“Alright, you don’t have to worry anymore. Marina has had her own opinions since she was young. She will be fine. Besides, doesn’t she still have us?” Sam smiled and comforted her. 

“But this is no small matter. I’ve been investigating for many years but still haven’t found the mastermind. I’m afraid…” At this point, Mary’s torte sounded worried. 

“Trust the kids. Maybe they can do it better than us.” 

“Besides, don’t you want them to continue investigating?” Sam said slowly. 

“Since when did I want them to continue investigating?” Mary rolled her eyes at him. 

“Yes, yes, yes. You didn’t think about it. I did.” Sam didn’t expose her thoughts anymore. 

He knew that his wife was stubborn but soft–hearted. 

She kept saying that she did not agree to Marina and Simon dating. 

But actually, she didn’t do anything overboard. 

All she did was ask Marina to go on a few blind dates. 

Actually, she did this just to see Simon’s sincerity. 

She wanted to see how far Simon could go for Marina. 

Sam understood all of this. 

Hence, he let his wife do whatever she wanted. 

“Alright, let’s go home.” Mary did not say anything else and ended the topic calmly. 

“Okay Sam immediately started the car and drove away with them in it. 

Meanwhile, Marina was calling Simon. 

“You’re awake?” The call was picked up on the first ring. 

“Yes, where are you now?” Marina asked. 

“In the company.” 

“I’ll be there in a while!” Marina’s tone was filled with uncontrollable excitement as she informed Simon about her arrival. 

“Alright,” Simon replied straightforwardly. 

After hanging up, Marina immediately sped toward Hernandez Group headquarters. 

As soon as her car pulled over, Gavin, who was waiting at the door, immediately opened the door for her. 

“Miss Bailey,” Gavin Johnson called out respectfully. 

“Did Simon ask you to come down to get me?” Marina asked. 

“Yes, Mr. Hernandez still has some work to deal with, so he asked me to wait for your arrival,” Gavin Johnson explained. 

“Okay” Marina glanced at the folder in his hand and immediately walked toward the entrance of the company. 

The CEO’s office was on the top floor of the building. 

Simon had just finished listening to the last manager reporting his work. 

The next moment, Marina walked into the office. 

The serious expression on Simon’s face instantly disappeared. 

He got up and walked toward Marina.

Why are you so happy?” Simon held Marina’s hand and walked towards the sofa. 

“Why don’t you guess?” Marina pretended to be mysterious. 

“I guess… you met your mother today,” Simon said after some thought. 

“How did you know?” Marina was surprised. 

She did not expect Simon to guess correctly. 

“It’s because our hearts are connected,” Simon said slowly. 

“I did meet my mother today. Although she said that she didn’t agree with our relationship, she gave me something. I believe you will like it!” 

Marina took out the folder with a
