Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 291

Chapter 291 

“What happened to her?” When Simon Hernandez saw Marina Bailey’s expression, he knew that there must be something going on behind the scene. 

“She gives me the feeling she is Chrislyn Neil. Whether it’s her frown or smile, or her every move, she’s v Chrislyn Marina recalled the scene when she saw Chrislyn previously and her emotions fluctuated a little. 

“Previously, I was very certain that Jeffery had recognized the wrong person.

“I thought he missed Chrislyn too much, and that was why he grabbed onto this non–existent illusion tightly. 

“But after seeing that person, I almost believed that Chrislyn had returned.” Marina’s voice was a little soft. 

“Actually, I believe you have countless ways to verify whether that person is Chrislyn or not. 

“The reason you have such doubts is simply because your heart is filled with a trace of hope, just like Jeffery Garcia. 

“Both of you hoped that nothing happened to Chrislyn, so you two started to find excuses for yourselves from the bottom of your heart. 

“Therefore, sometimes, it may not be that this person’s acting skills are good, but that they have grasped the most fragile part of your hearts.” 

Simon did not know Chrislyn, so he did not feel any guilt towards her. 

Therefore, he was able to analyze the entire situation very rationally. 

Marina’s lips moved when she heard this. 

After quite a while, she managed to squeeze out a somewhat pale smile. 

“You’re probably right. Indeed, I am hoping that she’s still alive…. 

“After Chrislyn was gone, I enlisted in the military. I avenged her and brought those kidnappers to justice. 

“But my heart had never relaxed. Though those people had received the punishment they deserved, the dead would never come back to life anymore. 

Jeffery also became extremely dejected because of this Marina’s tone was filled with guilt. 

“So because of this, your Bailey family has been secretly supporting the Garcia family all these years?” Simon said slowly. 

In reality, the Garcia family had already shown signs of decline. 

Based on Simon’s prediction, the Garcia family should have been gradually removed from the ranks of the Four Families over the next few years 

However, whay surprised Simon was that the Garcia family kept hanging on, barely getting by all these years. 

After some investigation, Simon found out that the Bailey family had been helping them behind the scenes. 

In the past, he had thought that it was probably because their families had a close relationship. 

Therefore, the Bailey family was willing to sacrifice so much to help the Garcia family maintain a vain vencer of prosperity. 

However, from the looks of things now, Simon was wrong all along. 

The reason the Garcia family was still able to stand among the ranks of the Four Families was all due to Marina’s sense of guilt.

Chapter 291 

“Mr. Garcia was also a formidable mover and shaker in the business world back then, but none of his sons inherited his excellent genes. 

“On the other hand. Jeffery took after his grandfather a lot ever since he was young. 

“Mr. Garcia has always nurtured Jeffery as his successor. All these years, he has been showering Jeffery with a lot of attention. 

“Later, after something happened to Chrislyn, Jeffery gave up everything. Mr. Garcia aged a lot overnight. 

“He was still supporting the Garcia family with all his might, but his health had been deteriorating over the years. I couldn’t bear to see the elderly man still working so hard at his age, so I went to look for Jeffery.” 

To my surprise, Chrislyn also showed up…” 

In fact, everything that Marina had done for the Garcia family all these years could already make up for the regrets of the 

past 

Even Alfredo also told Marina that she did not owe them anything at all. 

After all, back then, Chrislyn chose to do what she did entirely on her own accord. 

It could also be said that Chrislyn chose Marina over Jeffery without hesitation. 

Therefore, there was no need for Marina to atone for what happened back then. 

However, Marina refused to listen. All these years, be it money or resource allocation, she would favor the Garcia family almost all the time. 

Despite doing all these things, there was simply no way to salvage such a massive sinking ship. 

It was just delaying the behemoth’s inevitable demise. 

“Then what do you plan to do now?” Simon looked at Marina with blazing eyes. 

Marina moved her lips and only spoke after quite a while. 

“When Chrislyn left, she asked me to meet her at our usual place.” 

Simon asked, “Are you going?” 

“That place is a small book cafe that Chrislyn and I accidentally stumbled upon. 

“That place is particularly remote, but there are many books there that can’t be found in bookstores outside. 

“The two of us had relatively similar interests and liked to read, so we often arranged to go there to read. 

“Gradually, that place became our usual haunt. 

“But we didn’t tell Jeffery about this place because that guy doesn’t like to read those boring books. 

“So the only people who know about that place are just me and Chrislyn.” This was also the reason Marina couldn’t make up her mind. 

“I’l 

go 

with you.” When he saw Marina’s expression, Simon reached out and held her hand. 

“You?” Marina was a little surprised. 

“Chrislyn Neil was taken away before. I have to keep a close eye on you. Otherwise, what if you are taken away too?” Simon said in a deliberately relaxed tone. 

When Marina heard this, the expression on her face could not help relaxing considerably.

“Don’t worry. No one can kidnap me.” Unless Marina herself was willing to be kidnapped. 

“What time are you meeting her?” Simon asked.
