Returning With A Thousand Favors By Flora Isabel
Chapter 162

Chapter 162 

“I’m going out for a while. I originally wanted to hand you over to him, but he doesn’t seem to be willing to do that.” Marina glanced at Quantum. 

When Phoenix heard that Quantum was unwilling to do that, the pattern of its little eyes instantly became angry. 

And it raised its two claws. 

And this time, it was no longer the small electric shock attack from before. 

It revealed the firearms inside. 

When Quantum saw this scene, he immediately jumped up. 

He hurriedly said, “Your master misheard me just now. I said that I must keep you by my side!” 

When Phoenix heard this, its little paws paused. 

Quantum quickly looked at Marina. “Don’t worry. Just go. I’ll definitely take good care of Phoenix. When you come back, I’ll return it to you without a scratch. I won’t even let it lose a single strand of hair! No, I won’t let it lose a single bit of paint!” 

After Quantum finished speaking, he saw that there was a hair on Phoenix’s head. 

He immediately changed his words. 

“I’m relieved to hear that. Phoenix, follow him and listen to him. When I’m not at home, don’t tear down the house or hurt people for no reason, understand?” Marina instructed it word by word. 

“Got it.” Phoenix turned off its weapon slowly. 

Phew… 

When Quantum saw this, he let out a long sigh. 

Then, he raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his forehead. 

Fortunately, he was quick enough to react just then. 

Otherwise, he 

would have been blasted into a meatloaf by this litt 

thing. 

After Marina had arranged everything, she brought Quantum and Phoenix downstairs. 

Phoenix had sensed that Marina had returned and that was why it led Quantum to chase after her. 

Now that everything was clear, Phoenix brought Quantum back to the small courtyard at the back. 

After Marina packed her luggage, she wanted to call Brendon. 

However, the moment she picked up her phone, she suddenly saw an unread 

It was from Simon. 

[Marina, please let me know when it’s over.] 

Marina looked at the message and her 

eyes 

flickered slightly. 

After a while, she made a call. 

The call was answered almost on the first ring. 

“Are you done?” Simon’s deep voice came from the other end of the phone. 

“Yeah,” Marina replied softly. 

“What’s wrong? What happened?” However, Simon could tell that something was wrong. 

“Huh?” Even Marina herself didn’t realize what was wrong. 

“Is it very hard to deal with?” Simon asked again. 

Marina finally came back to her senses. 

“No.” Marina shook her head. 

“Then why does 

voice 

sound a little off?” Simon asked slowly. 

Marina frowned. Was something wrong with her tone just now? 

“I’m going 

on a 

long trip,” Marina said after a moment of silence. 

“A long trip? Where

e you 

going?” Simon immediately asked. 

“Can’t you tell me?” Simon instantly understood. 

“No,” Marina replied. 

“Is it very dangerous?” Simon asked again. 

“It’s alright.” Marina sounded deliberately relaxed. 

“When are you leaving?” Simon did not ask further. 

He knew Marina too well. 

If she could say what it I was, she would have said everything just now. 

Everyone had their own secrets. If Marina 

was unwilling to tell him, he would not force her. 

“We’re ready to set off now.” Marina checked the time. 

“Is it really that urgent?” Simon frowned. 

Hearing the disappointment in his tone, Marina’s red 

I lips moved and she subconsciously spoke. 

“I can spare an hour.” 

After saying that, Marina felt a little uncomfortable. 

In the past, when they were still in the long time.

Brendon could only try his best to coax her.

At that time, they were always mocking Brendon. 

They said that he was not young anymore and was still living in a soap opera. 

And now, Marina suddenly felt like she had been infected by Brendon. 

It was not like she had never gone on a mission before. She had gone on missions that were even more difficult and dangerous than this one. 

At that time, she could leave without any hesitation. 

Now, she suddenly felt unreluctant to leave. 

Hmm… 

Marina frowned, 

It was probably because Simon was such a nice pillow for her. 

That was why she felt a little reluctant. 

With that thought, Marina immediately calmed herself down. Before Simon could speak, she added. 

“Although I was the one who stopped Yenny last time, he will definitely blame this on you. I don’t know how long I’m going this time. You have to be extra careful in Janeborough. 

“I gotta go. I’ll contact you when I get back.” After saying that, Marina hung up the phone. 

Then, she carried her luggage and went downstairs. 

Marina and Brendon had agreed on a meeting location before. 

Then, she rushed over alone. 

In the car, Brendon had also changed out of his previous suit and put on some convenient clothes. 

When he saw Marina coming over, he immediately lowered the car window and made a gesture for her to get into the car. 

“Let’s go pick our members!” He had become the same old little brat he used to be in the army headquarters. 

He didn’t act like the mayor he was at all. 

Marina shook her head when she saw him like that. 

This was indeed quite hard for this guy to restrain his nature all this time. He had always been a free spirit but he could only be trapped in that suit in the 

end. 

The reason why he was so eager to participate in this mission was probably because he had been holding it in for way too long. 

Marina opened the passenger door and jumped in. 

“Let’s go!” Brendon shouted. He stepped on the accelerator and the SUV sped off. 

In the car. 

Marina had been tapping her fingers on the window nonchalantly. 

The expression on her face shifted and no one could tell what she was really thinking at this moment. 

However, halfway through the journey, a black car suddenly appeared in front of them. 

Then, it blocked their way in the middle of the road. 

Brendon’s expression instantly became nervous. 

Marina’s wandering thoughts were also pulled back by this scene. 

She immediately looked up. 

“Could it be that our whereabouts have been leaked?” A trace of coldness flashed across Brendon’s eyes. 

Marina’s dark eyes narrowed as they glistened dangerously. 

“Captain, sit tight. I’ll get us out of this!” Brendon stepped on the accelerator without another word.
