Chapter 297
“Fine. Then I won’t impose on you ladies anymore.” Surprisingly, Yenny Pembroke didn’t pester them anymore.
After hearing Marina Bailey’s words, he really left right away.
However, before he left, he gave Chrislyn Neil a somewhat meaningful look.
The look in his eyes made Chrislyn feel a little uncomfortable.
However, she waited until he left before moving closer to Marina.
“Marina, who was that just now?”
“An annoying person. Marina didn’t bother to hide her disgust.
“Is that so? I also feel that his gaze makes people quite uncomfortable.” Chrislyn thought about how he had looked at her just now when he left.
She felt as if she had been targeted by something particularly terrifying.

“That person is the head of the Pembroke family, but he’s very sinister and vicious. He’s also not on good terms with us. you meet him alone in the future, remember not to get entangled with him. Just leave right away,” Marina advised Chrislyn.
“I’ll remember that.” Chrislyn nodded vigorously.
With no more annoying people disrupting them, the menu for the banquet was quickly decided.
Just as Marina and Chrislyn were about to drive away from the hotel, Marina suddenly realized that her car could not be started.
Marina could not help frowning.
Then, she looked at Chrislyn next to her.
“The car seems to have broken down. I’ll go down and take a look.”
“I’ll go with you,” Chrislyn said as she followed Marina and got out of the car too.
Chrislyn did not know anything about cars and could only help to fan Marina while handing her some tools every now and
then.
However, after a round of inspection, Marina discovered that the problem with the car was not small.
There was no way she could fix it for the time being, so she could only stop what she was doing.
“It’s a little too hot outside. Go inside and wait for me. The car won’t be repaired for a while. I’ll have to get someone to come and tow it.”
Today, Marina had come out with Chrislyn alone. She had assigned Oscar and Lee to do other things.
At this moment, she could only contact the towing service company herself.
“I’m fine.” Chrislyn simply smiled and still stayed close by Marina’s side.
She looked exactly like how she used to follow closely behind Marina and Jeffery like a little follower.
Marina could not resist smiling a little.
Just as she took out her cell phone to make a call, an inquiring voice rang out again.
Do you need help?”
Marina frowned again when she heard this voice.
She raised her head, and sure enough. Yenny was standing not far away.
“Did the car break down? It so happens that I’ve finished my business here. Do you want me to drop you ladies off on the way?” Yenny’s expression was incredibly gentle, like a humble and refined gentleman.
However, Marina had already seen the darkness under his mask.
Marina slammed the hood of the car shut loudly.
Then, she looked at Yenny in bewilderment.
“I say! We’ve already shed all pretense of cordiality. Why are you still approaching me again and again?
“Do you really think that I won’t take action against you?”
Yenny was about to speak when Marina interrupted him again.
“I’m warning you one last time. Don’t come near me and talk to me again. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not showing any courtesy to you!”
Marina really didn’t like Yenny Pembroke at all.
Yet, the person she hated kept walking toward her.
Marina had clearly humiliated him just an hour ago.
In the end, that fellow still ran up to her with a big smile on his face, trying to ingratiate himself with Marina.
She really did not know what kind of masochistic mentality this guy had.
Or was he really that long–suffering?
“Then how does Miss Bailey intend to not show me any courtesy? Will you poison me again?” Yenny was not afraid at all.
Instead, he stared at Marina with the utmost interest. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
It seemed that Marina’s words did not frighten Yenny away. Instead, it made him somewhat eager to push his luck.
Marina was utterly speechless.
She was certain of it now. This guy was a masochist!
And Marina did not have the patience to continue talking nonsense with him anymore.
She moved her wrists slightly and got ready to teach him a good lesson.
However, at this moment, a strong arm suddenly wrapped around her shoulder.
Marina raised her head and saw Simon standing beside her.
The expression on her face changed at once.
“I’ll ferry my fiancee myself. There’s no need to trouble Mr. Pembroke for this.” Simon stared at Yenny with a superficial smile.
There was a roiling chilliness glinting in his eyes.
“Mr. Hernandez, you really have a lot of free time. You are so busy in the company, but you still have time to pick up your fiancee in person.” As Yenny looked at Simon, the expression in his eyes unwittingly changed.
“No matter how busy I am, I still have to take good care of my fiancee. Unlike you, Mr. Pembroke. You are so busy every day but still think about ferrying someone else’s fiancee.”
“Mr. Pembroke, if you have the time, why don’t you go back to the company and hold a few more meetings? Perhaps you can salvage some of your company’s losses. When Simon said this, he maintained a smile on his face all the while.
However, that smile seemed to be overflowing with belligerence, like he was making a declaration of war.
Yenny’s eyes froze for a moment, but his expression quickly returned to normal.
“It looks like Mr. Hernandez is inextricably linked to the sudden mass termination of our contracts with our business. partners.” Yenny said in a deep voice.
“Mr. Pembroke, you need evidence to make such allegations. Do you have any evidence to prove that I did it?
“I only heard some things about your company, so I simply reminded you out of kindness.
“Mr. Pembroke, you should not be ungrateful.” The smile in the corner of Simon’s lips deepened a few degrees.
“Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Hernandez.” Yenny’s dark eyes narrowed.
The stand–off between the two men clashed in the air, and there seemed to be sparks flying in all directions.
In the end, Yenny did not persist in this stalemate.
He slowly withdrew his gaze, then glanced at Marina fleetingly.
“Mr. Hernandez, you have to take good care of your fiancee. After all, you are not the only one who is interested in a talented and beautiful girl like Miss Bailey.”
After saying that, Yenny turned around and left.
As Simon stared at his back profile, the smile on his lips slowly turned into a layer of icy frost.
What did he mean by his last sentence?
Was Yenny intending to snatch his girl from him?
Marina did not notice the subtle atmosphere between them so she asked, somewhat pleasantly surprised, “Why are you here?”
When Marina sent a message to Simon earlier, he replied he was still in a meeting.
To her surprise, he came here.
“When I was in a meeting, I suddenly heard from my business partner that Yenny Pembroke had also come to your hotel. I was a little worried, so I came to take a look.”
Simon was extremely glad now that he had made this trip.
