Accidental love II novel Chapter 24

Janice had seen Marcus' assistant several times, so she was able to recognize his voice. Now, she was sure that the one who knocked on the door was Gavin.

"Please come in." She opened the door and said politely.

"Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Shawn Clinton heard that someone died here, so he asked me to take you and Mr. Marcus Clinton to the Clinton’s. The car is parked outside. So please pack your things."

When Janice heard that someone died here, her face turned pale again. Her breath was short. Besides, she was trembling slightly.

"Are you okay?"

"I’m fine."

Janice's eyelids drooped. She smiled sadly, and went upstairs to pack up her stuff.

Gavin pushed Marcus to the door of the villa and put down the pedals of the modified medium-sized commercial vehicle. Then the wheelchair was pushed into the car along the pedals.

Staring at disabled Marcus, Janice couldn’t say a word.

In the Clinton’s.

As soon as Marcus and Janice walked into the living room, they saw Shawn approaching.

"You finally came back safely!"

"Grandpa!" The two greeted him in unison.

Shawn glanced at his grandson. Seeing Marcus’ face as usual, he turned his attention to Janice. She stood there in silence with pale face and closed lips. Obviously, she was frightened.

"Janice, are you okay?!" Shawn said with full of love. His tone of voice was extremely gentle.

Janice didn't know what to say. She had just quarreled with Marcus and accused him of being a murderer. Shawn would definitely be sad if he knew it.

"Don't be afraid. Grandpa will protect you guys. Just stay at home for the time being and company me, okay?"

She didn't dare to agree casually. She wanted to ask Marcus' opinions. But she only saw he closed his lips tightly and was sitting in a wheelchair blankly which was like a statue. He didn't seem to want to make any response.

Facing Grandpa’s kindness, they had to say something, right?

So Janice said, "Well, I listen to Grandpa."

"Good girl! Then you will live with me in the main house. I live on the first floor these days, and you and Marcus can live on the second floor. Anyway, there is an elevator in the house, so it’s easy for both of you to go up and downstairs. Marcus, Janice said okay. What about you?"

Shawn was quite dissatisfied with Marcus’ silence. He had always spoiled this clever and sensible grandson, but Marcus’ performance today was a bit abnormal.

"Alright! Let's just live here, lest Janice will be scared when she goes back. After all, the murderer has not been caught yet, right?"

Marcus obviously had some other meanings in his words! How could such a dignified man be such narrow-minded?
