Chapter 355


    Marina took out her phone and nced at the caller ID.


    Her eyebrows furrowed instantly.


    She then turned to Simon, who was sitting beside her.


    “What’s wrong?” Simon asked.


    “Nothing. It’s… a call from my mother,” Marina said.


    When Simon heard this, his heart skipped a beat.


    “Just answer it. I won’t make a sound.”


    “Don’t get me wrong.” Marina wanted to exin but the phone kept ringing.


    She decided to chat with Simon after she finished talking to her mother on the phone.


    “Mom,” Marina greeted Mary as soon as she picked up the call.


    “Where are you now?” Mary’s stern voice came from the other end of the line.


    “I’m at the airport. I just sent Jessica off,” Marina exined.


    Mary fell silent at her words.


    A whileter, she asked, “Has she boarded?”


    “Yup,” Marina replied.


    “It’s good to for her go abroad to rx.” Mary was also at the wedding that day, so she naturally knew


    about what happened.


    As a woman, she also despised Peter for what he did.


    Marina did not reply. During this period of time, Peter had been criticized a lot.


    “Come home after seeing Jessica off. Your uncle and cousin are back.” Mary let out a sigh and


    changed the topic.


    “They are both back?” Marina was stunned when she heard that.


    “Yes. We’re waiting for you to have dinner.” Mary hung up after she finished speaking.


    When the interface returned to the phone background, Marina shifted her gaze from the screen to


    Simon again.


    “I’ll send you back.” Before Marina could say anything, Simon turned the car around.


    “I’m sorry, I can’t have dinner with you tonight. My uncle and cousin are back. I have to go home,”


    Marina said.


    She had promised Simon that she would have dinner with him tonight.


    “It’s okay. It’s more important to apany your family.” Simon was not angry.


    “I will definitely have dinner with you tomorrow night,” Marina promised.


    “Okay.”


    Half an hourter, the car stopped at the entrance of the Bailey family’s house..


    “Do you want to…e in with me?” Marina looked back at Simon before she got out of the car.


    “Not today. Your mom will be unhappy if I go in with you. It’s rare for your family to have dinner


    together. I don’t want to go in to ruin the atmosphere,” Simon said considerately.


    “Why do you sound so aggrieved?” Marina raised an eyebrow.


    “What can I do? It’s my fault for not being able to get your mother to ept me.” Simon looked at


    Marina gently, resting one hand on the steering wheel.


    “Don’t be sad. My uncle dotes on me the most. When I get back, I’ll ask him to persuade my mother to


    ept you as soon as possible!” Marina enunciated each word clearly.


    “Alright. I’m waiting” The smile in Simon’s eyes deepened “Hurry up and gom Don’t keep them waiting


    too long ”


    “Got it!” Marina leaned forward and gave Simon a kiss before getting out of the car


    Simon was stunned by the sudden kiss


    When he came to his tenses, Marina had left


    Simon touched the corner of his mouth that had just been kissed by Marina and muttered with a smile,


    “You naughty girl”


    It was not until Marinapletely disappeared from his sight that Simon retracted his gaze and drove


    away.


    After entering the house, Marina changed her shoes and walked into the living room.


    A hint of doubt appeared on her face when she saw that no one was in the room other than Sam and


    Mary who were sitting on the sofa


    “Have my uncle and cousin not arrived yet?” Marina asked.


    “We’re going to a hotel for dinner. Go upstairs and change your clothes. We’re ready to go.” Mary said.


    “Change my clothes? Don’t I look good?” Marina looked down at her clothes.


    She was wearing a T–shirt and jeans, looking youthful and beautiful.


    She thought the clothes suited her well.


    “Come on, just do what I said. I’ve asked the maid to put the clothes on your bed. Hurry up and go


    back to your room,” Mary


    insisted.


    Marina was confused.


    Her mother rarely paid attention to these details.

    Why did she insist on her getting changed today?


    When they were having family dinner parties before, Mary had never paid so much attention to her


    clothes.


    Could it be because they were going to eat in a hotel?


    Marina went upstairs in confusion under Mary’s gaze.


    As soon as she entered her room, she saw a red gown on the bed.


    She picked it up and took a look. It seemed to be thetest style that she saw a model wearing at a


    fashion showst month


    The dress should not be sold in the country yet.


    It was just a family gathering. There was no need to make it so grand.


    Just as Marina was deep in thought, she heard someone knock on the door.


    She looked back and saw an acquaintance standing at the door.


    It was the stylist who often worked for her family.


    He was the top stylist in showbiz.


    All the celebrities in the entertainment industry wished they could send their heads over so he could do


    their makeup.


    “Why are you here?” Marina asked in surprise.


    “I’m here to serve my client, of course. I’ve been waiting for you all the morning. We don’t have much


    time left. Hurry up and change into the dress “With that, the stylist ragged a big box into the room


    Then, he ced all the cosmetics in the box on the dressing table


    Marina was stupefied.


    “Why are you still standing there? Go get changed, or we won’t have enough time,” the stylist urged


    Marina, who was still standing rooted to the ground.


    Marina had no choice but to change her clothes.


    After she got changed and came out, the stylist immediately pressed her into the chair.


    He then began to put makeup on her.


    When Marina opened her eyes again, 40 minutes had passed.


    “I was right. You’re my muse. I enjoy it very much every time I put makeup on your face.” The stylist


    looked at her with amazement in his eyes.


    Marina nced at herself in the mirror.


    Aplicated look appeared on her face.


    “Don’t you think I’m… overdressed?” Marina looked at the jewelry she was wearing and asked.


    If she remembered correctly, it was the jewelry her father had given her during hering–of–age


    ceremony.


    Sam spent a lot of money to hire the most famous foreign designers to design and hand–make a set of


    jewelry for her.


    This was the only one in the world.


    Marina had only worn it once on the day of hering–of–age ceremony over the years.


    “Your mother asked me to put it on you. Come on, let’s go and let her take a look,” the stylist said as he


    pulled Marina downstairs.


    “Marina, you’re so beautiful!” Sam eximed as soon as he saw the two of theme down.


    However, he immediately added, “But not as beautiful as your mother.”


    Marina was speechless.
