Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 4

There was a sudden silence in the meeting room when everyone saw such a scene.

Looking at Peter’s flattering appearance, the middle-aged men present became increasingly resentful.

On such a solemn occasion, he even brought such a woman!

Once again, the middle-aged men present were sure that Peter simply did not take them seriously!

“Miss Bailey? What brought you here?” However, someone in the meeting room recognized Marina and

stood up in a hurry to greet her.

He was very cautious when he greeted Marina.

It made the other middle-aged men look at him with puzzled expressions on their faces.

“Aunt Daisy told me that uncles are a bit dissatisfied with Peter, so she asked me to come over and see

what happened,” Marina replied lightly.

Then she sat down directly in the main seat.

Marina was there for the first time. Only the person who greeted her just now knew her because he had

just been to the main branch of the Bailey family, and the other middle-aged men there did not know

her.

Seeing her behavior, the other middle-aged men couldn’t help but frown.

They couldn’t figure out why a young girl dared to sit in the main seat.

They even felt that Peter did not deserve to sit in the main seat.

“Little girl, you’re sitting in the wrong seat. That’s not a place for you to sit.” Someone objected.

As soon as he said this, Peter and the person who knew Marina’s identity looked over.

And a look similar to sympathy appeared on their faces.

They thought in their hearts, “This man is done for!”

“Oh, really? But I like this seat. What should I do?” Marina held her chin in one hand and turned slightly

sideways while glancing at that man with her beautiful eyes.

Her tone was uncharacteristically warm and gentle.

“Who told you that you can sit there if you like it? There are so many things I like. Should I take

possession of everything?” Hearing Marina’s gentle words, that man thought Marina was merely an

ignorant little girl.

And there was even more disdain in his eyes.

The ancestors of the Bailey family engaged in illegal businesses in the early years.

And they later turned most of their businesses into legitimate businesses for various reasons.

However, these elders of the Bailey family had all worked hard together with the people from the

previous generation of the Bailey family.

Because of this, these middle-aged men looked down upon the younger generation of the Bailey family

so

much.

Therefore, they always put on the airs of elders and were high and mighty in front of the younger

generation

of the Bailey family.

“What you said seems a bit reasonable,” Marina said and nodded in agreement.

“Since you think it makes sense, why don’t you stand up…” Before the man could finish his words, his

neck. suddenly got pinched.

Then his body was lifted into the air. And in the next second, someone severely hit him to the ground.

The man was in pain and could not make a sound. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

He huddled on the ground.

However, the man who had pinched his neck just now raised his fist to hit his face.

The pupils of the man on the ground dilated instantly. If this punch hit him on the head, his skull would

probably be broken.

But at this moment, he couldn’t make a sound.

He could only watch the punch fall.

“Sev!” However, just as the punch was about to fall on the man’s face, a pleasant voice sounded

suddenly.

The punch stopped in front of the man’s eyes.

The man was scared out of cold sweat and even wetted his pants in fear.

Suddenly, there was a smell of urine in the air.

“Sev, didn’t I already tell you before we came here? Don’t be too impulsive. Why didn’t you listen?

Look, you scared him,” Marina, who was seating on the main seat, said.

She was with a strange expression of disapproval.

But her tone did not sound like she was blaming Sev.

“He spoke rudely to Miss Bailey!” Sev said with an expressionless face.

“But you don’t need to break his skull, right?” Marina asked deliberately.

“These are all my uncles here. You should be polite to them.” Marina slowly admonished her

bodyguard Sev.

“Those who disrespect Miss Bailey should be killed!” Sev still had a stern look on his face.

“Why can’t you change your temper? It’s a legal society now, and killing someone is against the law.”

Marina shook her head with a helpless look on her face.

Then she swept a glance at the others present.

And she said, “Forgive me, uncles. My bodyguard is a bit stubborn. Even I can’t change what is in his

mind..

“When you see him in the future, try not to provoke him. After all, everyone here is the most capable

subordinate of the Bailey family. If something happens to you, I don’t know how to explain it to

Grandpa.”

Marina’s words seemed to be appeasing the crowd.

But in fact, it was an outright threat.

What she meant was, “I have a killer with me.

“He protects me very well, so all of you should be careful when you talk to me.

“Otherwise, the fate of the guy who fell to the ground would also be yours.”

For a moment, no one in the meeting room dared to make a sound.

The way they looked at Marina also became complicated.

When Marina appeared, most people there didn’t take her seriously.

But after what happened just now, everyone had to re-examine the identity of this little girl in front of

them.

Her bodyguard’s strength was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

“What are you waiting for? Hurry up, take him to the hospital!” Peter, who had been watching a good

show from the side, finally said something.

As soon as he said that, the ser***t waiting next immediately carried the man on the ground who had

passed out from pain out.

Then Peter gloated and sat next to Marina.

Those of them from the branch of the Bailey family might not know Marina very well.

The gentler her tone was, the fiercer and more ruthless she would be.

Peter had experienced it since he was very young.

Those old foxes were probably frightened by Marina’s aggressive behavior.

“Okay, uncles. Let’s talk about the business. I hope you won’t be affected by what happened just now.”

Marina sat up straight again and smiled at the crowd before her.

But now, even if she smiled harmlessly, no one dared to underestimate her.

Everyone was aware that she was a much more ferocious character than Peter.

For the next hour, Marina had a full understanding of the operation of the company over there.

She could only use one word to describe it. That was, miserable!

After those middle-aged men left, Marina looked at Peter, who was sitting on the side.

Rolling her eyes at Peter, she said, “No wonder Aunt Daisy asked me to come over. If you continue to

make such a fuss, I guess this company will become the first closed branch of our Bailey family!

“Shame on you!”

Peter explained, “You can’t blame me for this. When I came over to take over this company, the

situation was

even worse than it is now.

“And also, it’s difficult to control those old foxes. Although they seem to respect me on the surface, in

reality, none of them takes my words seriously.

“They have been entrenched here for many years and have long held the real power in their hands.

How can they be willing to give me the power easily?

“What’s more, unlike you, you have Oscar, Sev, and ten other people at your disposal. I’m just an alone

commander without real power here. It’s not easy for me to make the company what it is now.”

Peter had a bitter expression on his face.

Marina didn’t believe Peter’s tricks at all. She said, “Come on, stop pretending to be miserable.

“When you were training, if you didn’t focus on winning female classmates’ affections, you wouldn’t be

in this

state now.”

“I couldn’t help it.” Pete didn’t deny it.

“You’re right. You can’t help but love every good-looking woman.” Marina rolled her eyes.

“This is also the nature of men,” Peter coughed and said.

Marina gave him a direct stare.

Peter immediately straightened up and said, “Well… I’ve already restrained myself a lot!”

“What’s the biggest headache on your side right now?” Marina did not want to spend too much time

discussing Peter’s affairs.

She went straight to the point.
