Chapter 36
“What is this place?” Marina asked Simon after getting out of the car.
“A restaurant
“What is up with the restaurant’s design?” Marina looked at the building in front of her.
Upon entering from the restaurant’s magnificent entrance, the interior of the restaurant felt like a court
meeting.
“The boss of this restaurant has always had such a unique taste, but the food in this restaurant is still
very delicious. Please force yourself to bear the sight of this place.” Simon’s thin lips moved slightly.
“I hope the food here can live up to my wronged eyes.” Marina remained skeptical.
“It should not disappoint you.” Simon smiled and led Marina to the entrance of the restaurant.
However, right at this moment, the phone in Marina’s pocket rang all of a sudden.
Marina took out her phone and saw that it was a call from Peter Moore.
She answered the call shortly.
“Hello?”
The person on the other end of the phone said a few words, and Marina’s face instantly hardened.
“Got it. I’ll be right there!” Marina hung up and looked at Simon beside her.
“I might not be able to eat today. I still have something to deal with. Let’s meet again next time.”
“Did something happen?” Simon asked when he saw the serious expression on Marina’s face.
“It is just a small matter.” It was a matter regarding the company, so Marina did not reveal anything to
him.
“Then I’ll send you there.” Simon looked at Marina and probed no further.
“There is no need to. I can go there by myself.” Marina left in a hurry after saying that.
Simon was left standing there alone.
Upon leaving the restaurant, Marina planned to take a taxi.
However, there was no available taxi for a long time.
Marina frowned. Just as she was about to call Lee, a black car stopped in front of her,
The window of said car rolled down, revealing Simon’s incomparably devilish face.
“It is not easy to get a taxi here. Let me send you there,” Simon said.
Marina looked at the time. If Lee were to make a round trip here, she might not be able to make it.
After hesitating for a while, she finally opened the car door and got into the passenger seat.
Marina gave Simon the address, then contacted Oscar and Lee.
Half an hour later, Marina arrived in Wesiville.
The fight here was already at an all-time high.
Marina’s eyes quickly scanned the chaotic crowd and finally locked onto Peter Moore, who was
currently being surrounded by three people.
His face was already injured, and his body was swaying.
It seemed that he was already exhausted.
Marina’s expression darkened in an instant. Then, she took off her coat and handed it over to Simon.
“Wait for me here!” Marina instructed and flexed her wrist.
Just as the opponent’s fist was about to reach Peter’s temple, she rushed forward and grabbed that
person’s wrist.
Then, she turned and threw the person over her shoulder.
When they fell to the ground, Marina bent her elbow and struck down once more.
This caused the other party to pass out right away.
Simon’s eyes lit up when he saw Marina’s beautiful combat technique.
The remaining two were also stunned on the spot and dared not go forward.
Marina had no intention of letting them go anyway. She casually found a rubber band and tied up her
long hair.
Her eyes were hostile as she stared at the people opposite her. “How dare you touch my person?
You’re courting death!”
With that, she rushed forward.
In less than a minute, they were already on the ground and wailing in pain.
One had a broken hand, and the other a broken foot.
However, Marina spared them no glance. She stood up and walked to over Peter.
“Can you still walk?”
“…Yes.” Peter nodded.
“It’s really time you trained hard. There’s merely a few of them and you’ve already been beaten to such
a state.” Although Marina sounded disdainful, her hand continued to support Peter.
“They didn’t care about morals and ambushed me. I fell into their trap by accident. If we fight properly, I
won’t lose to them!” Peter expressed that he couldn’t lose face.
“Hmph, another honey trap?” Marina side-eyed him.
Peter avoided her eyes right away.
“Son of a bitch, you’ll be dead at the hands of a woman sooner or later.” Marina could not help rolling
her eyes.
Knowing that he was in the wrong, Peter did not dare to retort and only touched his nose guiltily,
“Miss Bailey, Mr. Moore!” At this moment, Oscar and Lee had also rushed over.
“I’ll leave this place to you. Remember to keep them alive!” Marina instructed coldly, then left while
supporting Peter.
“Yes!” Oscar and Lee’s eyes hardened immediately.
At the villa, Peter sat on the sofa dispiritedly.
“Take off your clothes.” Marina found a first aid kit and wanted to apply the medicine for him. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“I’ll do it,” Simon suddenly said.
“You?” Marina looked at him in confusion.
“By the way, who are you? Why are you with my Marina?” Peter finally noticed Simon’s presence.
“Leave him alone. Now tell me what happened today first!” Marina reprimanded Peter.
The latter immediately shut his mouth up.
Meanwhile, Simon naturally took the first aid kit from Marina and began to treat Peter’s wounds.
“Today, I went to take over Wesiville’s land as promised. However, not only did the Hernandez family
refuse to retreat, they even set up an ambush. I didn’t bring anyone with me, so I could only contact
you first.” Peter briefly explained what had happened.
“So you’re saying that the Hernandez family went back on their words at the last minute?” After Marina
heard this, a layer of coldness shrouded her dark eyes.
“That’s right. They’re such unethical people. The refund agreement was already signed, but they still
dared to do this. I reckon that Robert Hernandez was upset he got beaten up by you, so he wanted to
get revenge. Ouch, don’t be so rough!” Peter suddenly shrank his body as he spoke. Then, he glared at
Simon unhappily.
“I’m sorry. It’s been too long since I’d treated someone’s wounds. My hands are a little rusty.” Although
Simon apologized, his expression remained haughty.
He did not look like he was treating someone’s wounds. Rather, he looked like he was comforting a pet.
Peter’s face changed right away.
He snatched the cotton swab from Simon’s hand. “I’ll do it myself!”
Simon had no objections, so he quietly returned to Marina’s side.
“What are you doing? Who told you to get so close to Marina? Get away from her!” Peter was very
sharp and noticed Simon’s actions. He picked up the pillow beside him and threw it at him.
Simon dodged slightly to the side.
That nimble action made Peter frown.
This guy was a martial artist.
“Robert Hernandez? Just you wait!” Marina repeated Robert Hernandez’s name before turning around
and walking towards the door.
“Marina, don’t be afraid when you attack this time. Beat him to death!” Peter waved the flag behind him
and cheered.
Simon, who was beside him, narrowed his eyes and glanced at him.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Peter felt a chill down his spine.
It was as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast.
