“Grandpa, Simon is the head of the Hernandez family. How could he marry into our family?” Marina had no choice but to ruin Mr. Bailey’s fantasy. 

Chapter 115 

“I didn’t believe it at first, but that kid Simon Hernandez was even willing to sign a contract. 

“You see, this is his fingerprint, and there’s his signature.” Chuck pulled out a sheet of paper as he spoke. 

The handwriting on it was strong and powerful. 

I, Simon Hernandez, will voluntarily marry into the Bailey family. I will never go back on my word. 

Below were Simon’s fingerprint and signature. 

Marina carefully checked the contract several times and found nothing out of the ordinary. 

“Are you sure this was written by Simon Hernandez himself?” Marina asked Chuck with a fixed gaze. 

“Of course, he wrote it in front of me,” Chuck replied with certainty. 

However, when looking at this piece of paper, Marina’s frown only deepened. 

“Grandfather, don’t you think this is suspicious? Why would Simon be willing to marry me even if it means giving up his own family and becoming a part of us?” 

“I’m sure it’s because my granddaughter is very charming,” Chuck said matter–of–factly 

“Grandpa…” Marina Bailey called out desperately. 

“Alright, alright, I know that you are concerned. I only agreed to his proposal. If he dares to go back on his word in the future, we’ll simply break the agreement. Chuck sounded quite assured. 

However, Marina was still frowning. 

After all, she had only known Simon for less than a month. 

She did not believe that Simon could have such strong feelings for her in such a short period of time. 

“Marina, I know what you’re thinking. You want to be the backbone of the Bailey family, but this path will be very difficult.. 

“I want you to have an easier life in the future, and Simon Hernandez is a very good young man. If he really likes you, I think you should consider him,” Chuck said with a solemn tone. 

Marina’s gaze fell on the golden ring on her finger. 

She thought, “Is Simon Hernandez simply interested in her? 

“Or is he planning something bigger?” 

“Grandfather, there’s something else I need to tell you” Marina took a deep breath and pushed aside her thoughts for a moment to tell Chuck about the mysterious organization. 

After listening to Marina’s story, Chuck fell silent. 

“Is Lambert’s injury related to this organization?” Marina noticed the change in Chuck’s expression when he heard about the organization. 

Chuck pursed his lips and didn’t answer immediately. 

“Grandpa, they’ve already come to our doorstep. Please don’t keep things from me any longer. Marina looked at her grandpa with determination.

Chuck glanced at Marina and let out a long sigh. 

He said, “I never thought that they were responsible for your accident. I thought they had only recently emerged.” 

“Does that mean Lambert’s injury was their doing as well?” Marina frowned. 

“Yes. Chuck nodded. 

“Grandpa, do you know anything about this organization?” Marina asked. 

“I have never dealt with them before, and I’ve never seen that tattoo. Chuck shook his head. 

“Then why are they targeting us?” Marina had previously suspected the organization might have had an old grudge against their family. 

But from the looks of it, that didn’t seem to be the case. 

“I’m also investigating that, but this organization is very mysterious. Every time after they operate, they would wipe all traces of their existence when they disappear. 

“And they are very cruel. There sure would be bloodshed everytime after they appear. Regardless of age or gender, anyone. who has seen them will be killed. 

“It’s precisely because they are so savage that Lambert and I didn’t want to tell you about it. But who knew that you would be their first target,” said Chuck, his voice trailing off. 

“I understand. I’ve already told Aunt Daisy. She’ll step down from her position at the police station temporarily, and we need to notify the other members of the Bailey family. I’m afraid the organization’ll strike again.” Marina said. 

“I’ve already told them about this. They all know what to do.” After Lambert Bailey’s incident, Chuck had already arranged everything. 

“Okay.” Marina nodded. 

Her expression had never been this serious. 

“In fact, Marina, the reason why I agreed to Simon’s proposal was that I hoped that if something happened to the Bailey family, someone would be there to protect you.” 

Chuck revealed his true thoughts. 

The Bailey family will be fine!” Marina Bailey frowned upon hearing this. 

“I’m just saying that anything can happen in life, and we never know what might happen next.” Chuck chuckled. 

“As long as I’m here, nothing will happen to the Bailey family! I won’t let the past repeat itself!” Marina’s expression had never been this determined. 

Looking at Marina, Chuck sighed as if he had not heard anything. 

He thought, “This silly granddaughter of mine…” 

“Marina, that incident happened a long time ago, and it wasn’t your fault. Stop dwelling on the past,” Chuck said softly. 

“Grandpa, it’s getting late. You should rest. I’ll think about Simon’s proposal” Marina didn’t want to discuss the matter any further and changed the topic. 

“Alright. Chuck saw her expression and decided not to say anything else. 

Marina helped Chuck to bed.

Chapter 115 

Then, she gently walked out of the room. 

Returning to her bedroom, Marina threw herself directly down on the bed. 

She raised her hand and gazed at the golden ring on her finger. 

“Simon Hernandez.. 

This name kept lingering in Marina’s mind. 

But no matter how hard she thought about it, Marina couldn’t figure out Simon’s motives. 

Finally, she got out of bed and grabbed a coat from the closet before heading downstairs. 

She was going to find Simon and ask him directly 

Marina got into the car and drove all the way to the Hernandez family house. 

The Hernandez family house was located in the south of the city whereas the Bailey’s in the north, so it was quite a long drive. 

An hour later. 

Marina’s car stopped at the front gate of the Hernandez family house 

Just as she was about to call Simon, the door slowly opened. 

“What? 

“What’s going on? 

“The door must have recognized my face. 

“But I have never been here before. How could the security system have her information?” Marina wondered. 

However, Marina wasn’t in the mood to think about it at that moment. She drove directly into the Hernandez house. 

When the car stopped at the main entrance of the mansion, Marina immediately saw Simon standing in front of the garden. 

He was looking at her with a smile. 

Marina couldn’t help but tighten her grip on the steering wheel.
