Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 98

Jessica saw Marina already sitting in her seat when she followed Peter into the plane breathlessly.

Jessica hurried

over to her and asked, “Marina, where are we going?”

Jessica was working when Peter suddenly asked her to leave with him.

She thought something had happened to Marina but had no idea that Peter had brought her all the way

to the airport.

“Janeborough!” said Marina in a steady voice with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

Jessica did not ask further when she saw Marina’s expression.

She just sat quietly aside.

She knew that something significant must have happened.

After Peter and Jessica boarded the plane, Oscar immediately contacted the airport and took off.

Jessica was surprised when she saw the plane begin to taxi.

Were there only a few of them on the entire plane?

“It is Mr. Moore’s private plane.” Oscar seemed to have seen through Jessica’s thoughts and explained

it to her considerately.

“Ah? Oh!” Jessica was stunned for a moment before she blushed and nodded.

It was the first time Oscar had ever seen a girl who blushed so much, and he couldn’t help but chuckle.

Jessica’s face instantly turned even redder.

Lee, who was sitting aside, coldly glanced at Oscar. Although his facial expression did not seem to

have changed, one could clearly feel that he was unhappy.

“What’s wrong?” Oscar turned around and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

However, Lee did not even look at him and directly put on his earphones.

Then, he closed his eyes to rest.

Oscar was speechless.

What had he done to piss him off again?

He didn’t do anything just now, did he?

Three hours later.

The plane landed on the private tarmac of the Bailey family.

As soon as Marina got off the plane, the people of the Bailey family, who had been waiting nearby,

immediately greeted her.

The two rows of men in black almost scared Jessica, who had just left the cabin, back.

“Miss Bailey!” The person standing at the front was Sev.

A capable girl.

Her skin color was not like the popular milky pale nowadays, but rather a touch of tan.

However, it could not hide the wild beauty in her facial features.

“Hmm,” Marina replied and walked straight to the car parked aside.

Sev quickly stepped forward and opened the car door for her.

Marina sat in the car neatly.

Jessica had been following Marina the entire time.

She immediately became nervous when she saw the great posture before her.

Jessica did not even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that she would do something wrong and cause

trouble for Marina.

After getting into the car, Jessica sat upright with both hands on her knees, like a well–behaved pupil.

The car drove another half hour or so.

Then, it drove into the manor of the Bailey family.

Jessica looked at the scenery outside the car with some confusion. She remembered that the car had

clearly driven through the gate just now. Why were they still at the scenic spot?

What Jessica didn’t know was that everything she saw now was the manor of the Bailey family.

The Cloud Manor.

Ten minutes later, the car arrived at the main house.

“Take care of Jessica.” Marina exhorted Peter as she got out of the car.

Then, she quickly entered the main house.

Yul, the old butler of the Bailey family, was waiting at the door.

“Miss Bailey.” He quickly bowed respectfully as soon as he saw Marina.

“How’s Lambert doing?” Marina immediately asked.

“Lambert is in a bit of a critical condition. The doctors upstairs are resuscitating him,” said Yul with a

worried look.

Marina did not waste any more time when she heard him. She quickly went straight to the second

floor.

In the corridor outside, a sprightly aged man stood upright at the door with a walking stick.

His turbid black eyes stared unblinkingly at the tightly shut door before him.

“Grandpa!” Marina quickly stepped forward.

“Marina, you’re back.” There was an instant relief in Chuck’s eyes the moment he saw Marina.

“Don’t worry, I’ll go in and have a look first,” Marina comforted Chuck and then pushed the door open.

More than a dozen doctors and nurses were gathered in the room.

At that moment, they were trying their best to rescue the unconscious man on the bed.

The rack at the side was filled with blood–stained gauze.

Marina’s expression darkened.

“Miss Bailey!” Someone noticed Marina and quickly bowed.

“I’ll be the chief surgeon. You change my clothes and give me Lambert’s medical record!” Marina did

not waste any time.

While the nurse was changing her surgical gown, Marina was flipping through Lambert’s medical

records.

By the time the nurse had dressed her, Marina already had a rough idea of Lambert’s injuries.

The other paramedics made way for Marina as she walked toward the bed

The second was ticking by.

Chuck had been guarding the door the entire time, and his eyes never moved away from the door.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Bailey. Miss Bailey is back, and I’m sure Lambert will be all right,” Yul comforted him.

“His life is sure to be saved, but his legs…” a cold glint flashed across Chuck’s eyes when he thought

of his grandson’s injuries.

“Miss Bailey will absolutely be able to save Lambert’s legs!” said Yul in a firm tone.

The operation went on for ten whole hours.

When the tightly shut door was opened from the inside again, the sky outside was already beginning to

brighten.

Marina walked out of the room, exhausted. Chuck immediately walked up with his walking stick.

“Marina, how’s Lambert?” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“The surgery was a success,” said Marina, removing her face mask.

“Then… what about his legs?” Chuck’s voice trembled when he asked the question.

Previously, all the doctors had told him that his son had to have his legs amputated.

That was why he called Marina back in such a hurry.

“They are saved,” Marina said firmly.

Her words were like a reassurance that instantly calmed Chuck down.

“It’s great. It’s great!” said Chuck repeatedly.

Lambert’s legs were significant to him.

Lambert’s life would be ruined without his legs.

“Grandpa, why is Lambert suddenly so seriously injured? He contacted me and was fine at the time

when I was in Solemwood,” Marina said with a frown.

Marina was well aware of Lambert’s abilities, and no ordinary person would have hurt him to this

extent.

Lambert would have lost his legs if she had returned a day or half a day later.

“I am not very clear about the specific things. Lambert was sent back by his confidant. That person

was also seriously injured and passed away. We can only wait for Lambert to wake up and find out

what happened,” Chuck said solemnly.
