Returning With A Thousand Favors novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31 

I called you simply because I wanted to give the present to you. Unexpectedly, I bumped into you afterward. Then, I just forgot about the call completely.Marina explained after she pondered in quietness for a while

I know.Simon replied

Marina had forgotten to ask about this. Now, she suddenly recalled this, so she asked, By the way, what is your relationship with Robert?” 

However, Simon did not answer Marina’s question directly. Instead, he asked, It is so late. What’s keeping you up?” 

I can not fall asleep.Marina knew that Simon did not want to say too much on this matter, so she did not ask further

After all, she was just asking

It did not matter that he did not want to talk about it

Are you having a problem with insomnia?Simon lowered his voice when he heard what she had just said

Yeah, I’m having a problem with insomnia.Marina stared at the ceiling, her eyes wide open

It took her great effort to get some good sleep before. Now, she just could not fall asleep again

It was nothing that she always could not sleep well before

However, after she got to have a good sleep all of a sudden, she found it unacceptable to suffer from insomnia anymore

Close your eyes and don’t think about anything. The voice on the other side of the line seemed to be a bit bewitching

Marina closed her eyes instinctively as she was told

Nevertheless, a few minutes later, Marina just opened her eyes again

Her eyes were full of frustration

Still, she just could not fall asleep at all

She was actually rather sleepy and physically very tired now

However, her mind just kept racing

Can 

you 

lend your body to me a bit?Marina suddenly made such a request

Simon was rendered speechless

There was silence on the other side of the line all of a sudden

Hello? Are you still there?Marina could not get any response after she waited for a while. She tapped on the phone screen only to find that the phone wasn’t hung up at all

Yes.” Marina finally got a response

Where are you? I will go to you now.” Marina had made a decision, so her tone was rather hasty

Silence reigned on the other side of the line again

Marina felt rather confused

Since when did the connection in Solemwood become so bad

Chapter 31 

Why was Simon breaking up again and again

Well, she decided to check it on her own

Then, Marina directly hung up the phone and picked up the laptop next to her

She turned on the laptop and started to tap on the keyboard swiftly 

Within a while. Marina gained an address

Then, she quickly got up and took a coat from her wardrobe. After she put it on, she got out of the door in a hurry

And she acted carefully, trying not to disturb Oscar and Lee

Simon, who was in the hotel, looked at his phone screen. The call had been hung up

He was still thinking about what Marina had just said

She just said she wanted to borrow his body

Simon’s Adam’s apple bobbed instantly. His eyes also darkened

He tapped on the desk for a while and then seemed to finally make up his mind. He picked up the phone and walked out of the study

Mr. Hernandez, it is already so late. Will you still go out now?Gavin immediately asked when he saw Simon walking out of the study

Yeah. Simon replied and then walked to the gate

Of course, Gavin also followed after him

You do not have to go with me!Simon suddenly said

Gavin glanced at Simon in surprise, but Simon did not look like he was kidding. So, Gavin had to lower his head and reply

Okay.” 

The moment Simon opened the door, he saw the woman standing at the door

She was wearing a hoodie and her hair was a mess

She also had dark circles and her left hand was hanging in the air. It seemed that she was going to knock on the door

Why are you here?Simon asked after he was in a daze for a few seconds

Seeing the man standing in front of her, Marina acted like a beast that was starving for a long time and finally found its prey

She threw herself at him without saying anything

Simon was lost for words

Gavin was stunned at once

Marina buried her head in Simon’s arms. As she smelled his refreshing scent, she felt that all the cells in her body were soothed

She wanted to sleep so badly now

Let’s go to your roomMarina muttered

Gavin was astonished

Chapter 31 

He looked at the scene in disbelief

Simon’s hands, which were hanging in the air, could not help shivering when he heard what Marina had just said

Do you know what you are talking about?Simon lowered his eyes to look at the woman in his arms and his voice was somewhat husky 

Yet, it seemed that the woman in his arms could not afford to wait anymore, so she urged again, Take me to your bed?” 

Her voice was fierce and coquettish, which was not menacing at all and yet more seductive

Simon’s eyes were even darker

He stared at the woman in his arms for a while. Then, he bent down to carry her in his arms

Gavin was listening attentively. He did not want to miss any details

However, as he raised his head, he just met Simon’s piercingly cold eyes

Gavin was rendered speechless

When on earth will you leave?Simon asked with his voice full of menace 

Gavin replied at once. Ahem. I will leave right now! Then, he lowered his head and quickly ran off right away

Then, he closed the door for them considerately

After Gavin left, Simon finally carried Marina into the bedroom

He placed her on the bed gently and carefully
