Chapter 16
“Your shoes and clothes are all dirty. Aren’t they uncomfortable to wear?” Simon looked at her with a
deep
gaze.
Marina was left speechless by his words.
Of course, she was uncomfortable.
She was so uncomfortable that she wanted to take off her shoes and clothes immediately.
She used to just like cleanliness. After that night, she developed an intense obsession with cleanliness.
If there was even a little dirt on her, she felt like tens of thousands of ants crawling all over her body.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so eager to send Jessica Rodriguez away just now.
However, her childhood upbringing did not allow her to walk barefoot on the street wearing only a small
vest.
That was why she had been gritting her teeth and enduring it all along.
“Since I don’t know your exact shoe size, I just estimated. You can try it first. It should be around the
same size,” Simon Hernandez said as he watched Marina’s slightly withdrawn fist. There was a faint
smile barely
noticeable on his face.
He opened the box in front of him and took out an exquisite pair of high heels..
Marina’s expression grew increasingly confused.
“How did he know my shoes were dirty?
“And how did he know I was uncomfortable?
“Did he see everything that happened just now at the club?”
Marina kept thinking with her black eyes lowered.
As she stared at Simon intently, he suddenly bent down and lifted her foot onto his leg.
In the next moment, he gently removed her dirty shoes.
Seeing this scene through the rearview mirror, Gavin Johnson was so startled that his hands were
slightly shaking on the steering wheel.
Although he had already stabilized the car at fast as he could, the car immediately tilted toward one
side.
His actions brought Marina’s wandering thoughts back to reality.
Seeing Simon putting on shoes for her, she immediately darkened her face.
“What are you doing?” Marina instinctively wanted to pull her foot back.
“Don’t move. It’ll be fine soon,” Simon Hernandez said without looking up.
For some reason, Marina didn’t move anymore.
After changing Marina’s shoes, Simon looked carefully at them for a while and was very satisfied.
“The size is just right.”
It was only then that Marina withdrew her foot from Simon’s lap.
She looked down at her shoes. Not only was the size perfect, but the style was also what she liked.
But this couldn’t be a reason for Simon to touch her without permission. “Who allowed you to touch my
foot?”
“You were staring at me nonstop just now. I thought you wanted me to help you put them on,” Simon
said.
Marina felt utterly helpless.
“You’re so good at imagining and telling people what they should wear. Why don’t you be a tailor? I was
just thinking.” Marina was furious.
“Is that so? Then maybe I misunderstood your meaning.” Simon’s words sounded like an apology, but
there was not a single trace of remorse on his face.
Marina clenched her teeth and was about to speak.
She then saw him pull out a white shirt from the bag next to him.
“Can you change your clothes by yourself?”
“What do you think? If you dare help me change, I’ll chop off your hands.” Marina looked fierce.
“Then you can change by yourself.” Simon completely ignored Marina’s fierce attitude and kindly
handed her the clothes.
Marina felt like she had punched a cotton ball.
There was no resistance at all.
At this time, Simon politely lifted the partition between the front and back seats.
Marina was instantly isolated in a separate space.
She remained silent for a while.
“The partition is not transparent, and the windows are covered with film. We can’t see through it. You
can change your clothes with peace of mind,” Simon explained on the other side of the partition.
Marina didn’t reply.
But she really wanted to throw the clothes at that guy’s head and break his neck.
Both of her sleeves were soaked with Jessica’s tears.
Now they were sticking to the back of her hand, making her feel utterly uncomfortable. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Finally, Marina had to grit her teeth and change her clothes.
At this point, the car had stopped.
Marina looked up and saw her residence outside the window.
She was stunned for a moment but soon had a realization.
This guy had invaded her room before and knew her address.
She bent her finger and tapped the panel by her side.
In the next moment, the panel came down.
“This outfit suits you very well.” Simon looked at Marina. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
The clothes had a bit of a unisex style, which might look odd on other people.
But Marina managed to wear them perfectly with a touch of both gentleness and wildness.
That was why she somewhat impressed Simon.
Marina didn’t respond to his praise.
She only ground her teeth as she watched Simon.
She was hoping to crush his head at the beginning.
Now she was wearing his shoes and clothes.
If she were to attack him now…
It would seem like she was too inhumane.
“Your driver seems to be coming.” While Marina was still thinking, Simon spoke again.
H
Marina turned her head to look out the window and noticed Lee was staring at them with a wary look.
“I’ll let you go now. Cherish the time while your head is still on your neck because the next time we
meet, it might not be there anymore.”
Marina ultimately decided to let him go this time.
“So you’re looking forward to our next meeting, huh?” Simon raised an eyebrow.
Marina was utterly speechless because of this guy.
She wondered, “Is this guy s****d?
“I just spoke so bluntly. Didn’t he understand?
“I was threatening to kill him!”
“I’m also looking forward to our next meeting.” Simon was still looking at her intensively.
“Go get some medicine if you’re sick.” Marina thought this guy was m***lly sick.
She promptly opened the car door and got out.
“Miss Bailey, are you okay?” Lee hurried over when he saw Marina get out of the car.
However, his eyes kept looking at the car parked nearby.
When Marina got out of the car just now, he thought he saw a man still sitting inside.
“Yes, let’s go inside,” Marina replied, heading toward the front door.
“Miss Bailey, who was the person who brought you back?” Lee asked.
Any unfamiliar person appearing around Marina had to be thoroughly investigated.
No dangerous element should get a chance to approach Marina.
“Just a tailor,” Marina replied nonchalantly.
He was also a tailor with a remarkable ability to imagine.
“A tailor?” Lee wondered.
He looked puzzled.
“Are tailors so rich nowadays?
“Could they afford limited edition luxury cars?
“And when did Miss Bailey meet a male tailor?
“Does she want to make clothes?”
L****s attention had completely gone off track.
Meanwhile, Simon kept his gaze fixed in the direction Marina had left.
