“What did you say? Marina could not help but glance at Simon from the corner of her eye.

“My grandfather had been investigating his young mistress’s death persistently. There was something strange about what happened at that time.

“He didn’t get to see her for the last time. And he had been trying to uncover the truth about what had happened back then over the years.

“However, he could not find anything about his young mistress. It was as if she had never existed in this world.

“My grandfather was in distress, so he wanted to find all the five keys to open the Akister Treasure and inherit the power of his young mistress, hoping to find out the cause of her death and take revenge for her.

“But I think if I were to do this alone, I might never be able to accomplish that.

“So, I could only jump out of the car and give you the key to open the treasure.

“This is the only way I can think of to fulfill my grandfather’s last wish. I believe that he will definitely understand me

Gordon was extremely sincere.

Marina couldn’t see anything unusual on his face.

So she was convinced that what he said was true.

After Gordon finished speaking, Marina was more certain about what she had speculated before.

“Lagree to your request.” Marina intoned.

“Thank you.” Gordon heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.

He was really worried that Marina would reject him to avoid misunderstanding-

If that happened, he might never be able to fulfill his grandfather’s last wish.

“If you need my help in the future, you can just look me up.

“After you open the Akister Treasure, everything inside will belong to you. I just want to know how did my grandfather’s young mistress die,” Gordon said firmly.

Okay.” Marina nodded and put the box away.

“You’re seriously injured. You should get some rest.”

“Okay.” Gordon was indeed tired.

He had been saying a lot of things as he slowly regained his energy.

After that, he closed his eyes. In just a brief moment, he was breathing heavily in his sleep.

Seeing that he was sound asleep. Marina left the ward with Simon.

The two of them sat on the chairs at the door of the ward with gloomy expressions.

“Now, we can be sure that the young mistress Gordon’s grandfather talked about is your mother.” Marina glanced at Simon.

“But why didn’t he mention this to me when I went to see him?” Simon said with a low voice.

“I think… he probably didn’t even know that you’re his young mistress’s child.” Marina thought for a moment and said.

“Really? He didn’t know?” Simon looked up at her.

“Based on what Gordon said, his grandfather and your mother should have been separated back then.

“Later, when your mother was on the brink of death, she entrusted Gordon’s grandfather to take care of the Akister Treasure.

“So he probably didn’t know what had happened to your mother. Otherwise, he would have looked for you.” Marina. thought about it for a while and felt that it was the most reasonable explanation.

“Maybe” Simon’s voice was faint. “Unexpectedly, there’s someone in this world who cares about my as I do.”

“Of course there is. There was you and now, there’s me and Mr. Earl Campbell whom you don’t know. “Simon, you’ve never been alone. We’ve always been here for you.” Marina said in an assertive tone.

“Mm.” Simon nodded heavily.

Chapter 416

They planned to stay in Hustralia for a while longer and waited until Gordon became better before returning to the

country

During this period, Marina and Simon took the time to deal with Yann Fadley’s fractions in Hustralia.

In less than half a month, Yann’s forces were completely disintegrated.

Even until his death, he could understand how the empire he had spent so many years building was easily destroyed by two young people.

After Mariana and Simon uprooted Yann’s power, Gordon’s condition improved a little.

Only then did the group go

back to Didominia.

Eunice also went along with them.

However, as soon as she got off the plane, she was taken away by Gavin.

What was awaiting her could be several years of jail term after she had committed offenses of intentionally causing bodily harm to others and conducting illegal surveillance.

When Gordon went to bid goodbye to Marina, his eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

However, Simon had always been by her side. He did not have the chance of confessing to her at all.

In the end, he could only keep his feelings to himself and say farewell to Marina.

After that, he got into the car that came to pick him up.

The moment the car was started, Gordon couldn’t help but look back.

Right then, Simon had walked up to Marina and pulled her into his arms in a domineering way.

Then, he lowered his head and kissed her.

Gordon’s face creased into a bitter smile when he saw that.

“It turns out the thing that pains my heart the most isn’t something I’ve never had.

“It’s something I’ve had before but lost it.

“Besides, I would never have the chance to start it over again.”

Gordon let out a long sigh and slowly looked away.

Marina would never belong to him.

Neither would Caroline who didn’t remember anything.

He had destroyed that girl who had given her heart to him.

In the long life ahead of them, the two of them would be like two parallel lines that would never cross paths with each other.

He felt a little frustrated and indignant.

Meanwhile, Marina had no idea all the thoughts that were passing through in Gordon’s mind.

She was almost suffocated by Simon’s kiss.

It was not until she kept patting his back that the man reluctantly let go of her.

After regaining her freedom. Marina panted heavily.

There was a trace of tears at the corner of her eyes.

Her red face and pitiful look aroused Simon further.

He subconsciously lowered his head again to kiss her.

However, Marina shunned it.

“Alright, that’s enough. He’s long gone. You don’t have to put on a show for him.” How could Marina not know what Simon was thinking?

“Who said I was putting on a show for him? 1 just lost my self–control when I touched you. Simon refused to admit it.

Marina rolled her eyes at him.

She knew he would deny it.

However, she did not argue with him.

Instead, she kind of liked it when he got jealous.

It was different from his usual self.

And she found those contrasting qualities of his rather cute.

“By the way, are we going back to your place or nine?” Marina asked loudly.
