Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 

“No one can make things difficult for me,” Marina Bailey said confidently, her voice rose slightly. 

She did not take Ruth Hernandez and Hannah Champ seriously. 

“Simon, I won’t argue with your mother this time for your sake. Tell her if she dares to make things difficult for Marina in the future, I won’t let her off!” Brendon Carrell stared at Simon Hernandez and enunciated every word. 

“You don’t have to do it for my sake. Just do what you have to do,” Simon said bluntly. 

He did not sound like he wanted to absolve his mother at all.. 

Standing between the two men, Marina suddenly narrowed her eyes and raised her hand to stop them. 

“Wait a minute, you two!” 

They looked at her simultaneously. 

“Was that woman your mom?” Marina’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Simon keenly. 

“She’s my mother,” Simon replied. 

“What is the difference?” Marina was puzzled. 

Mother was mom, and mom was mother as far as she was concerned. 

They sounded like a tongue twister.to her. What was Simon up to? 

“I’ll explain it to you later,” Simon said in a low voice and did not wish to elaborate further. 

Marina’s brows furrowed, but she did not ask further. 

“Hey, was it true what you said just now?” Brendon asked after Marina was done with her query. 

“Absolutely!” Simon said frankly, without trying to hide anything. 

Brendon was more than satisfied with his straightforward demeanor. 

“Very well. I just thought that if you dare to side with your mother, then I don’t want anything to do with you in the future,” Brendon did not mince his words. 

“You look like a clear–headed person, Simon. Tell your mother she doesn’t call the shots in Janeborough. There are untouchable people here; she cannot afford to offend any of them!” he warned. 

“Okay, I’ll tell her that, Simon replied. 

“Good” Brendon nodded, then he glanced at Marina. 

“I have to leave now to take care of other matters. Leave me your contact number. I’ll look for you when I’m done,” Brendon said as he handed over his cell phone. 

He had deleted everyone’s contact information after Marina left without a word. 

Now that she reappeared, Brendon would not let her slip away again. 

Marina knew exactly what Brendon had in mind and was at a loss.

She did not take the cell phone from him immediately. 

“If you don’t give me your contact number, I’ll call Matthew Dickson now Brendon knew Marina would not give in unless he put his foot down. 

Marina sighed and keyed her contact number into his cell phone. 

Brendon was no fool; he immediately made a call to her. 

The cell phone in Marina’s bag rang. 

“Are you happy now?” She raised her phone before Brendon. 

Brendon nodded when he saw his number on her screen. 

“Behave yourself, you hear? Don’t hide from me anymore. I’ll come after you otherwise!” Brendon Carrell was still worried and reminded Marina repeatedly before turning around and leaving. 

Marina shook her head and sighed helplessly. 

She did not manage to dodge Brendon after hiding for so long. 

Meanwhile, Leon Nanson and his agent, who stood behind Marina, had their jaws hanging open. They could not believe their eyes. 

After all, that was Brendon Carrell, Janeborough’s mayor. 

Ordinary people begged to get his contact information; few got their wishes granted. 

But Marina did not seem to care. 

Ahhh! 

What had the world come to? 

“I’ll send you back,” Simon said to Marina gently after the rest had left. 

Marina nodded and looked at Leon. 

“I’ll go back first,” she said. 

Leon and his agent were still shell–shocked and could not utter a word. 

They could only nod vigorously. 

Marina left with Simon after bidding farewell to them. 

Leon and his agent were left standing in the bustling corridor. 

“Speaking of which–who exactly was that young woman?” his agent muttered, scratching his head. 

“I’m not sure either. I never talk about private matters with Marina.” Leon was equally confused. 

“No wonder she refused to become a pianist. She must have an even more interesting life you don’t know about.” The agent felt like he had just watched a thriller movie; his adrenalin was still pumping. 

“I suddenly feel like I’ve ridden on someone’s coattails unknowingly,” Leon said slowly.

“Well, it is more than just coattails. She is a freaking towering ladder! By George! Leon, we can probably do whatever we want in Janeborough from now on!” His agent was overjoyed. 

“No, I can’t possibly cause trouble for Marina!” Leon immediately gave him a dirty look. 

“What kind of person do you think I am?” the agent protested. “What I mean is with the big shot’s protection, wel don’t have to be afraid of others causing trouble for us in the future. Do you think I’ll take advantage of her name to show off?” he sneered. 

The agent rolled his eyes, feeling offended.
