Chapter 364
The bodyguards'' expressions changed drastically when they heard Harold''s words.
If they got the same kick, they would surely die, no matter how strong they were.
After hesitating momentarily, the two reluctantly made way for Harold and Marilyn to protect
themselves.
“Come on. Let''s go in.”
Harold instinctively led Marilyn into the house.
Meanwhile, a sweet sensation spread within Marilyn as Harold grabbed her hand.
In the past, she always questioned the reason for a woman to get married. She believed women did not
need a man as long as they were financially independent.

However, her belief was wavering.
If not for the man in front of him, she would have to enter the house through the side gate.
Not only did Harold make her heart flutter, but he also gave her a strong sense of security.
While watching Harold and Marilyn enter the mansion, one of the guards took out a walkie-talkie and
switched it to the butler''s channel.
“Javion, the dude Marilyn brought back kicked the gate down. What should we do now?” reported the
guard to Javion Willis with a frown.
Standing in the mansion''s gazebo was a man with a mustache—Javion. He spoke to the guards using
the walkie-talkie, “What are you panicking for? I saw everything that happened. Get someone to fix the
gate. There''s going to be a family banquet at the residence tonight. The other family members will be
back soon. It''ll leave a bad impression on them if they see it.”
He, too, was shocked after witnessing Harold kicking the gate down.
Nheless, he was the Schmidt family''s butler. Naturally, he had witnessed all sorts of incidents. He
quickly recollected himself and left the gazebo to report to Ruby.
The Schmidt residence was huge. It stretched across fifteen hectares and had many individual
mansions built on it.
It was as big as the residence of royalty in the past.
Each one of Zyaire''s wives lived in a mansion of their own. Even Zyaire himself had one. There were
also houses designated for the housekeepers.
Harold felt as if he had entered an ancient pce the moment he stepped into the residence.
It took Marilyn a twenty-minute walk with Harold before finally arriving at the door of a secluded
mansion.
A haggard-looking woman in her fifties was already waiting at the door. One could vaguely see a
resemnce of the woman''s features on Marilyn''s face.
Instantly, Harold knew the woman must be Marilyn''s mother and Zyaire''s second wife, Jeslyn Lupton.
The moment Marilyn saw thedy, she called out loudly while running forward to hug thetter, “Mom,
I''m back!”
“How dare youe back after doing something so humiliating?”
Just then, a dissatisfied woman''s voice rang out behind thedy. A woman that looked just like Marilyn
walked out the door.
Twins?
That was what came to Harold''s mind.
Having just pulled away from her mother''s embrace, Marilyn bit her lip guiltily and drooped her head
upon hearing the voice.
“Shut up if you have nothing nice to say!” Jeslyn reprimanded, turning around to re at her second
daughter.
“That''s how your sister is. Ignore her. Who''s that behind you, anyway?”
Afterforting Marilyn, Jeslyn shifted her gaze to Harold, who was standing behind the former.
“Isn''t it obvious, Mom? He must be that b*stard Marilyn''s messing with out there. I''m warning you,
young man. If you''re trying to use my sister as an excuse to get hold of our family''s assets, you''d better
give up. Marilyn is a Schmidt, but she is not entitled to get a share. That''s because you guys got into a
rtionship out there. And now, the Schmidt family''s ruined, which could cause issues for my dad. It''s
not toote for you to leave if you want to stay alive,” Marilyn''s twin sister, Evelyn Schmidt, mocked.
“Evelyn Schmidt, what are you talking about? Harold''s not that kind of person!”
