Hearing her trembling voice, Malcolm, who had always hated women, suddenly felt distressed.
His deep gaze fell on the two women who came in. It was Margie and Sandra.
As the footsteps of them got closer and closer, Marilyn's body trembled uncontrollably.
He frowned slightly and wrapped his arms around her waist, burying his head in her shoulder.
He seemed to want to give her more sense of security!
In this way, he could prevent Margie and Sandra from recognizing him. He knew how gossipy they were well.
The faint scent of Marilyn gave him an inexplicably familiar feeling.
Sandra and Margie only saw a man and a woman hugging each other when they walked in.
Their eyes were filled with disdain at the same time.
Only when the footsteps of the two faded did Marilyn quickly step back from Malcolm's embrace.
Looking up at him with a pale face, Marilyn tried hard to curl her lips into a forced smile. "Mr. Lowe, thank you for what you did just now!"
With his embrace empty, Malcolm felt his heart was also empty. Her thanks directly brought him into a bad mood.
He curled his lips into a sinister smile and said, "Ms. Chapman, a simple thank you is not enough to pay me back."
"Then what do you want?" Marilyn, who still had not come out of the pain, asked in a trembling voice.
Hearing Malcolm's evil words, she suddenly felt as if she could not breathe. The pain in her heart kept torturing her.
She suddenly felt like the pain that she had experienced that night seven years ago had come back to her. It was a pain from which she even wanted to get free by killing herself!
But now she couldn't. She still had to take care of the three children and Elvira.
Besides, she had to find her biological parents.
Seeing Marilyn's fragile look, Malcolm found it hard to walk away.
All of a sudden, familiar footsteps came from inside, which panicked Marilyn. She said, "Mr. Lowe, goodbye."
After Marilyn finished speaking, she turned around and ran away.
Malcolm looked at her weak back and pondered.
Why was she so afraid of Margie and Sandra?
Malcolm left with doubt.
When he reached the lobby, he quickly took out his phone and dialed Julian's number.
The call was quickly put through.
"Julian, find out if Marilyn has anything to do with the Chambers family."
In the meantime, Julian was booking a flight ticket back to Fielddell.
Hearing Malcolm's words, he frowned and said, "Malcolm, the Chambers family has a son and two daughters. The other daughter is adopted from the orphanage. Her name is Marilyn Chambers. After the night of the banquet at Fiesta Hotel seven years ago, Marilyn Chambers had disappeared.
"Let me put it this way. I have a friend who is close to the Chambers family. He knows the inside story. Didn't you get drugged that night? That girl that your family arranged for you had gone to Mr. Hamilton's room. While the person that the Chamberses arranged for Mr. Hamilton was Marilyn Chambers. At that time, Marilyn Chambers was also drugged.
They wanted to use Marilyn Chambers to sign a big deal. I have always suspected that maybe the girl you slept with that night was just Marilyn Chambers because she was also missing since that night.
"Someone said that Marilyn Chambers had committed suicide after she found out the truth. No one knows what had happened to her and where she had gone. Anyway, that's all I know. I need to go to the airport and rush back overnight." Julian was about to hang up the phone.
But he suddenly remembered something.
"Malcolm, who did you ask me to check just now?" he asked again.
On the other side, Malcolm was looking at the back of Margie and Sandra, who were talking and smiling as they left. His eyes were filled with hatred.
He said word by word, "Before tomorrow, send me the photo of Marilyn Chambers and the name of the orphanage where she was adopted." He hung up the phone angrily.
After Julian heard Malcolm's words, his eyes rounded with surprise.
"What?
What was that?
One mission after another! I have to run all the way back and forth! That's my treat?"
Julian cursed Malcolm in his heart before he put away the phone.
Suddenly, he seemed to have recalled something.
"Marilyn Chambers? Orphanage? Marilyn? Lynn?" He muttered to himself word by word.
"Hey! It can't be such a coincidence, right?" As he thought of these, his unhurried steps turned into trots unconsciously.
Malcolm turned around and looked at the place where Marilyn had just sat. It was empty already.
He looked at the glass door and saw Marilyn slightly lowering her head. He could tell from her side face that she was still in panic!
Roland was comforting her.
Such a scene was somewhat annoying!
He thought, "Lynn, I have a very strong feeling in my heart. It's you!
Otherwise, how would a normal person erase her address for no reason?
There is only one possibility. She does not want people to know about her identity and where she lives.
Just like Mom, who would send me letters to let me know that she is safe, but left me no trace of her."
Malcolm's deep gaze maintained as the two disappeared.
At this moment, he found his heart extremely empty.
He had never felt this way!
"Lynn, I have been looking for you for many years. When will you come back?
I have always believed that you are still alive. You will definitely come back to me. You said that you would stay by my side forever."
Sometimes, waiting could be the most painful part of one's life.
Those who waited could only be at ease when the ones they waited for returned.
Marilyn told Roland about how she ran into Sandra and Margie.
Hearing this, Roland only regretted not being there for her.
Marilyn's face was still pale, and she looked absent-minded. Her gaze at the street was blank.
Roland could only carefully protect her by her side.
It had been seven years, but she still could not forget the pain.
Seven years ago, she was not seriously injured, but she was disheartened and unwilling to wake up.
It took him and Jeannie a lot of effort to raise her hope to live again.
They both thought that after seven years, at least she would forget a little.
With Dominic, Arturo, and Laverne by her side, at least the hatred and pain in her heart would go away slowly.
And for the past seven years, she had been very busy. It seemed that she wanted to make herself busy and have no time to think about those unhappy things in the past.
He didn't expect that the moment she met the Chamberses, her fragility would be completely stimulated.
"Lynn, stop it. You scared me," Roland suddenly said.
Marilyn slowly turned her head and looked at him with a glazy stare.
She pursed her lips and wanted to smile, but she couldn't. Her eyes were dull when her hoarse voice came up, "Roland, what did you just say?"
Roland smiled bitterly. She hadn't heard what he said at all.
He told himself, "Forget it, she would be more worried if she heard what I just said."
He smiled and asked in a gentle and concerned voice, "Lynn, shall I send you back?"
Marilyn quickly shook her head. Her mood was much better now. If she met the Chamberses again, she would be able to face them bravely.
She must be brave!
She was back for revenge. Next time, she would definitely be tough!
