“Such disgusting things. I don’t know why you men collect them,” Marina said coldly.
“Ahh!”
Lambert went a little crazy when he heard Marina’s words.
“Marina, how can you watch those things at such a young age? You’ll ruin your eyes!”
“If you don’t want me to see it, then why do you hide it in the computer? Can’t you just delete it?”
“I’m hiding it because I don’t want you to see it!”
“I don’t have time to play tongue twisters with you here. I’m going to rest.” Marina did not wait for
Lambert to respond and turned off the TV.
This time, Lambert didn’t dare hack into her TV again..
Marina’s world was finally at peace again.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean, Lambert turned on his personal computer frantically.
After decoding the multiple layers of encryption, he moved the folder Favorite Movies, located deep
within the computer, to his external hard drive.
It was porn that he had collected for many years. Marina must not have been allowed to delete them.
“That girl’s hacking skills are getting better and better.
“Obviously, I was the teacher who introduced her to hacking, but now she has surpassed me.
“I should have signed a non–competition agreement with her!
“The younger generation is indeed more competent.” Lambert kept thinking.
In the presidential suite at Hillton Hotel….
Simon had just come out of the shower.
Gavin was on the phone. As soon as he saw Simon coming out, he hung up the phone.
“Mr. Hernandez, there is news from the Campbell family. The old man is not good. He is in a state of
unconsciousness now, and there is no way to see guests at all.” Gavin Johnson frowned.
“Did you find the doctor I asked you to find?” Simon’s face sank.
“The Miracle Doc has always been elusive, but he suddenly disappeared four years ago. Our people
have been searching nonstop, but there is no news yet. He used to like to go to dangerous places in
Miderina. I am afraid he might have…” Gavin didn’t say anything more.
Simon understood what he meant.
His thick eyebrows tightened instantly.
The old man had what he wanted.
This time, he had to take it back.
“I’ll go there myself tomorrow,” he said.

“Yes.” Gavin Johnson nodded.
The following day…
Marina rarely got up early.
It was just that she was in a bad mood due to a lack of sleep.
Going downstairs with a cold face, she saw Peter Moore waiting in the living room.
“Marina, good morning. I brought you breakfast. It was made by a famous chef here. It is said that his
ancestors were imperial chefs. Come and try it.” Peter looked attentive and pulled out the chair for
Marina.
“Did Lambert ask you to come here?” Marina sat down slowly.
“He didn’t ask me to come to supervise you. You have always been true to your word and done what
you promised. He just wanted me to come over and drive you,” Peter said with a smile.
“Hmph.”
Marina snorted lightly.
She picked up her fork and tasted the breakfast in front of her.
The food tasted really good.
After seeing Marina’s frowned brows stretch slightly, Peter smiled with relief.
Finally, it wasn’t in vain. He stood in line for two hours to buy breakfast.
Marina slowly finished her breakfast and went out with Peter.
Because she got up so early, she was seriously sleep–deprived. As soon as she got into the car, she
closed her
eyes to rest.
After arriving at the destination, Peter called out to her softly. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Marina slowly opened her eyes, which were filled with hostility.
“Marina, we are here.” Peter couldn’t help but tighten his body..
Marina pinched her eyebrows irritably, opened the door, and got out of the car.
When she saw the villa in front of her, the expression on her face was petrified for a moment.
Peter, who got out of the car following her, saw the look on her face and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Why didn’t Lambert tell me that the person he wanted me to save is from the Campbell family?”
Marina’s eyes showed a coldness.
This villa was the Campbell family’s old house.
She used to come with Gordon Campbell a few times when she was still Caroline Campbell.
But his family had always been indifferent to her.
She thought it would be impossible to go back to this place in her life.
She didn’t expect she would be back now.
“The Campbell family? I don’t know. Lambert only gave the address to me.” Peter was dazed. “Do you
have
any connection with the Campbell family?”
He carefully considered his wording.
Marina’s impatience was becoming more apparent on her face.
She wanted to walk away immediately.
Remembering that the medical record noted that the old man was a soldier, her steps stopped again.
Forget it. She couldn’t stand by and do nothing based on the old man’s identity.
In the Campbells‘ residence…
The atmosphere was tense.
Countless doctors had come and gone out of the old man’s room.
Almost everyone had a solemn expression.
Sophia followed behind Gordon Campbell.
In this chilling and tense atmosphere, a slender figure stood in front of the crowd.
His face was cold and distant. He had an unusually handsome face, but it did not reduce the chill
emanating from him.
By his side was the current head of the Campbell family.
Sophia had secretly peeked at the figure several times within half an hour.
It was the first time she had seen a man better looking than Gordon in Solemwood.
And his identity didn’t seem to be simple.
When did such a character appear in Solemwood?
How come she never knew?
Just as Sophia looked over again, she suddenly received a vicious gaze from Erica Campbell next to
her.
She immediately withdrew her gaze. Erica was the younger sister of Gordon, but she never liked
Sophia.
Sophia didn’t take her seriously at all. She just leaned against Gordon provocatively and then spoke
softly.
“Gordon, you don’t have to worry. Dr. Kevin is the best surgeon in the world. It took me a lot of effort to
invite him back from abroad. With him here, Grandpa will be fine.”
“Okay.” Gordon nodded, but the worry in his eyes did not dissipate at all.
Erica’s teeth suddenly clenched tighter.
She cursed inwardly, “If this woman hadn’t brought the doctor, how could she be qualified to step into
the gates of the Campbell family?”
As Sophia watched the angry expression on Erica’s face, she felt a sense of relief.
“Challenge me? You’re still too young,” she thought.
She immediately glanced around at everyone present.
Chapter is
Almost everyone in the Campbell family was there.
Each and every one of them was a character that she would never come into contact with in her daily
life.
The Rodriguez family was originally a small family, and her father’s business had been even worse
over the
years.
In Solemwood, her family was no longer notable.
As long as she held on to Gordon, she would be the future young lady of the Campbell family.
Everything was going to be hers.”
At that time, no one would dare to despise her anymore.
A hint of greed and ambition slid through Sophia’s eyes.
Gordon was paying attention to the old man’s situation and did not notice Sophia’s emotions at the
moment.
On the contrary, Erica, who was standing by the side, noticed it and snorted with disdain.
