Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 79

“Who was the person that poisoned you?”

Claudia was astonished by his question.

She felt like all of her blood was clotting and all the muscle in her body was rigid. She felt like her brain was like a broken TV.

“Tell me! I need to know the truth!” he said genuinely and firmly.

“Don’t you believe me? I won’t hurt you, Claudia! You need to tell me the truth so that I can help you!”

Claudia closed her eyes painfully, and her hands were loosened powerlessly.

She trusted Marshall, that was for sure.

She didn’t know whether it was about affection or love, but the relationship between them, which was founded and forged by the experience of growing up with each other, could support her trust in him alone.

But sometimes, when you trusted more about a person, you wanted to protect him more.

Besides, the secret had a huge impact on the future of the Evans family. She couldn’t make a rash act.

Then, she opened her eyes, which were clear and determined, and smiled slightly like nothing happened.

Claudia said in sign language, “Don’t ask questions again, Marshall. It’s all over. I’m fine, really.”

“Claudia…”

Marshall paused and stared at her eyes. He felt the sense of bitterness was getting stronger in his mind.

“Who are you trying to cover for? Amber?” Marshall guessed.

She shook her head, “Though she is capricious and arrogant, and doesn’t get along well with me, she is not a bad guy. Don’t suspect her like this.”

After all, Amber was her sister with the same father. Even though Amber was hostile to her all along and ensnared her, she still rendered good for evil and tried to resolve the conflict.

“Who else can it be? Is it…”

He seemed to have an answer, but he wasn’t sure.

Because, if it was really that person, she must be involved in a huge conspiracy.

Marshall looked into her eyes and only felt sorry for her. He held Claudia in his arms and said, “If you don’t want to tell me, I won’t ask questions for it anymore. But Claudia, you must treat your throat and get your voice back, ok?”

It reminded her of Ann’s words. Since GK Project was launched, she could rescue her mother very soon. Once she could bring her mother back, she could retaliate Blair and her husband without any concern.

Thinking about this, she nodded and said in sign language, “Fine, I will accept the treatment.”

“Call me if you need anything. I can stop asking for a reason, so you must call me when you are in need!” Marshall said.

Though Claudia looked weak and feminine, she had a soul which was tougher than the stone.

It was hard to imagine what she had been going through in these years.

Marshall got in the car and was about to leave. Carelessly, he saw a black Rolls-Royce was parking on the side of the road. He always felt familiar with this car.

But soon the car was started up and moved away. So he stopped thinking about it and drove home.

However, in the Rolls-Royce, a man was sitting on the back seat dismally. The man, who was wearing a clean, delicate suit without any crease, was watching the mansion of the Crawfords.

Later, he took out the phone and made a call.

“Cliff, you must cure her by all possible means!”
