Chapter 2062
I soon put that thought aside.
Standing in front of me was just a child, A poor child who had lost his family and had no one to depend on. Just surviving was a big problem for him, never mind the possibility of him scheming against us.
I then felt really guilty for thinking that a child like him would scheme like an adult would.
"Alright." Hendrix didn't seem suspicious of him. He nodded for Neal to leave and said, "It's getting late. You should return to your room and rest." "Yes, sir." Neal bowed respectfully before leaving the living room.
When it was quiet again, I noticed that Hendrix's eyes were locked onto Neal. He was clearly very suspicious of him.
"What are you thinking about?" I asked.
When he heard my voice, Hendrix turned around as if to say, "He may sound like he's well-educated, but that's not a reason for him to stay close to Aurelia."
With that, he picked up the cup of warm tea on the table that the servants had served earlier and sipped it. He had no intention of continuing the conversation.
We shared the same opinion about him, so I didn't have much to say. With how determined Hendrix was, the fear I felt for our daughter gradually eased.
Hendrix got up early the very next morning. After we had breakfast, he brought me and Wynn over to the villa in the western suburbs.
The servants that accompanied us were replaced by hired servants which Aaron brought from Mesville, they were dressed in casual clothes. Evan had arrived much earlier and was waiting at the gate of the villa.
Hendrix asked indifferently, "Where is she?"
"Miss Marshall is in the master bedroom on the first floor. She has been begging us to find a doctor..."
Hendrix acted as though he hadn't heard anything and strode into the room.
I had assumed that the Marshall
family's properties would either be lavishly decorated or have high-end furnishing. When we entered the room, I realized that the decorations were very unique. The walls were specially painted with colorful graffiti. There wasn't much furniture in the hall, but several items in different shapes were carefully placed about. It seemed like it had been specially arranged for
skateboarding.
Jennifer always presented herself as a very elegant woman to other people. Who would have thought that she had such a hobby?
I looked around the house as I followed Hendrix into Jennifer's room.
Evan stepped forward to open the door and saw a couple cuddling at the side of the bed.
Upon closer inspection, the woman was none other than the once arrogant Jennifer. Her face looked pale, probably due to a lack of rest.
As for the man, he was sitting on the bed with a quilt that covered his lower body. When he saw us, he didn't show any intention of moving away. Both of their eyes were swollen, it was obvious that they had just been crying.
"Hendrix! How dare you drive my private doctor away? Will you bear the responsibility if he dies?" As soon as Jennifer saw us, she roared, "He's your brother-in-law! How could you be so cruel?!"
With his head slightly tilted to the
side, Hendrix glanced at the person on the
bed, "So, he's still alive?"
"You..." Jennifer was furious. She faltered for
some time and couldn't speak a completeCopyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
sentence, "I... You... you're ruthless!"
Hendrix ignored her ranting. He walked to the side of the bed and stared at the man on the bed condescendingly. Although I was a fair distance away from the door, I could sense a strong and magnificent aura coming from him.
Apart from Jennifer, everything in the villa seemed to be quite special. The decoration was very unique, there was strange- looking furniture everywhere, and the man had a full unkempt beard. I didn't know whether he was an artist oran otaku.
