Chapter 579: Chapter 579 Give Marlon a Warning

After Keith walked out of the apartment, Larry handed him a disinfection tissue.

Although Keith had already washed his hands, he felt the water there was not very clean.

After Keith wiped his hands, he didn’t say anything. But Larry was very sensible. Larry directly took two people and went to clean up the scene.

Keith sat in the car and lit a cigar. Before Keith finished this cigar, Larry had already walked out with a big bag.

There was almost nothing left in that house now.

And there was another person who had escaped from Iceland.

However, in Iceland, Samara was considered a person with a lower social status than civilians. Thus, even if she disappeared from Iceland, no one would care.

Even if Samara’s family went to the police to report the case, Samara would only be considered a fugitive suspect. So, ordinary people wouldn’t dare to report the case.

After all, there were strict requirements for the local residents to leave the country. People had to pay a certain fee in order to leave the country. Otherwise, their behavior would all be considered as fleeing the country.

But that amount of money was astronomical for ordinary people in Iceland.

The government of Iceland issued this policy to stem population loss.

Otherwise, with its terrible governing style, if the civilians of Iceland could leave, they would definitely leave this country.

But in that case, there would be no one to serve those powerful and wealthy people in Iceland.

Some people couldn’t get such a large sum of money for even three generations. They couldn’t change their fate or leave Iceland in their whole lives.

After getting Keith’s instructions, Larry drove away with that big bag.

At this time, Keith had finished smoking his cigar.

Keith waved his hand to signal for the driver to start the car and leave.

As soon as the driver started the car, Keith saw a black luxury car stop in front of the apartment.

The door of that black luxury car opened. A man in a suit got out of the passenger seat, ran to the back seat, and opened the car door. Then, a pair of shiny black leather shoes appeared in Keith’s sight.

The man in the back seat showed his face. Keith saw clearly that the man had a sculptured face and was very handsome.

It was Marlon.

Keith’s thin lips curled into a smile. He thought, it seems that Alena’s fake son is a little useful. He has actually found that Dr. Platt had some clues in her hand.

However, he is still five minutes late. Otherwise, as long as Marlon found Dr. Platt, Dr. Platt would definitely tell him everything.

Keith looked out the window again and saw that Marlon had already entered the building.

Suddenly, Keith thought of the boy who appeared at the wedding that day. Later, Keith sent someone to investigate. And it turned out that the boy was Marcus’ son.

It was just that Marcus’ son did not look like Marcus at all.

Keith thought, Marcus...

In Keith’s eyes, Marcus was his number-one rival in love.

Keith thought, Marcus loves Alena very much. And his love is like infatuation.

But so what? Even if Marcus loves Alena very much, he still has a son with another woman.

I wonder what expression Alena will have when she knows about this.

She is too silly. She always feels that the world outside is good, and the men outside are also good men.

However, she has ignored that in this world, only I am the man who loves her the most.

The other men’s love is all empty words. It is just a joke.

...

Yvette was in the villa, anxiously waiting for Marlon’s news.

They finally had some progress. Yvette’s mood turned much better. And because Yvette was going to meet her mother later, her heart was filled with expectation and joy.

Even the baby felt her mother’s joy and danced restlessly in Yvette’s belly in the afternoon.

Yvette sat on the sofa and stroked her belly gently. "Baby, you also want to see your grandma, right?"

At this time, there was a sound in the front hall.

It was Marlon. He came back.

It was just that Marlon didn’t walk back. He was carried back by his assistant and Oliver.

Yvette rushed over and looked at Marlon’s pale face. Yvette raised her hand, but her fingers were trembling. "Marlon? Marlon, what happened to you?"

Marlon’s eyes were closed, and he did not answer Yvette.

Yvette looked at Marlon’s shoulder, which was dyed red with blood.

It was obvious that Marlon got shot.

Stephen also followed in from behind. There was also a group of doctors behind Stephen. Stephen directly ordered Oliver to send Marlon to the guest room downstairs for surgery.

The guest room turned into a temporary operating room. Fortunately, Stephen was very experienced. The medical facilities in the room were very comprehensive, and there was no problem with sanitation.

Looking at the tightly closed door, Yvette covered her chest.

She asked Stephen with tearful eyes, "Stephen, what happened?"

Yvette clearly remembered that Marlon was fine at noon. Why did he become like this now?

Stephen looked at Yvette’s pale face and did not answer. He helped Yvette sit on the sofa.

After settling Yvette down, Stephen slowly said, "He went to that doctor’s house. But he found nothing there. He searched that place for a while. When he was about to leave, he happened to encounter a thief, and they started fighting."

Yvette repeated in her heart, a thief...

Yvette did not believe it was just a coincidence. Yvette had lived in Iceland for quite some time, so she had some understanding of the customs of the people here.

Under normal circumstances, commoners would not dare to provoke wealthy and powerful people, nor would they dare to offend foreign distinguished guests.

Marlon’s attire and travel tools obviously showed that he was a wealthy person. How bold and ignorant that thief would be to fight someone who was several times more valuable than him.

Yvette said in a sobbing tone, "I don’t believe it. Stephen, tell me the truth. Is someone trying to assassinate Marlon?"

Marlon got such a serious injury just after he found something about Alena.

Yvette didn’t believe that it was a coincidence!

Stephen said, "Yvette, your guess is also possible. I am investigating this matter. I have also informed the bureau. You don’t have to worry. I will definitely find out what happened exactly."

Stephen knew that if he hid it from Yvette, there would definitely be problems with Yvette’s mental state. Thus, he could only choose to keep her informed.

As long as Yvette knew something, she would not let her imagination run wild.

However, Stephen only said half of the truth.

It was obvious that someone attacked Marlon to give him a warning. That thief died before he could be sent to the hospital.

This was also the reason why Marlon chose to go to Stephen’s house instead of going to the hospital after being attacked.

Marlon was afraid that there would be people from that group of people in the hospital. If that were the case, those people could easily add something to Marlon’s medicine or directly inject something into Marlon’s body.

Therefore, it was the safest at home.

Moreover, the Parker family had all kinds of medical equipment, which was not worse than the hospital.

Staying at home was much safer.

Stephen held Yvette’s arms and comforted her, "If that was really not a coincidence, it means that the person behind the scenes has gotten anxious. And you are closer to the truth."

Yvette was very flustered. Her mind was a mess now.

Yvette wondered, who on earth hid my mother?

Who exactly is it that has such great power?

After a while, the door to the room opened, and the doctor came out.

Yvette rushed up and asked, "How is Marlon? Is he still in danger?"

The doctor said pertinently, "There is no big problem with his body. The patient’s important organs didn’t get hurt. He just got shot in his left shoulder. The bullet has been taken out. He only needs a period of time to recuperate in order to recover to his previous state."

Hearing the doctor’s words, Yvette felt a little relieved.

Then, Yvette went into the room. Marlon had not woken up yet and was still sleeping on the bed.

The surveillance equipment at the bedside showed that Marlon’s physical signs were still stable. Seeing this, Yvette felt a little relieved.

After a while, Stephen came in and said to Yvette, "It’s time to have dinner. You can come to accompany him for another hour today. Then you need to go to sleep."

If Stephen didn’t set the restriction, Yvette would probably sit here until late at night.

Yvette was still pregnant. Staying up late and worrying were very harmful to her health.

Stephen saw Yvette’s reluctant expression and comforted her, "Don’t worry. We have people to take care of him twenty-four hours a day. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of yourself. Don’t let Marlon worry about you after he wakes up."

Yvette knew that Stephen was doing this for her own good, so she obediently got up and went to have dinner.

Yvette had no appetite now. But because she was in the late stage of pregnancy, the baby still needed nutrition. Thus, she forced herself to eat more.

While eating, Yvette asked, "Stephen, have you sorted out the relationship behind the woman who bought the medicine?"

Now that Samara was missing, they could only sort out the relationship behind her to see if they could find any clues.

Stephen said, "Samara is the private doctor of the Beckford family. Sometimes, she will also do some private jobs."

From the looks of it, Samara loved money. If someone wanted Samara to do something, the fee they needed to pay was very high.

"The Beckford family?" Yvette was a little confused. "Stephen, is the Beckford family you have mentioned Keith’s family? Juliette’s uncle, Keith?"

Stephen nodded. "That’s right. It’s the man you saw last time at the wedding."

Yvette thought of Keith’s eagle-like eyes, and a sinking feeling rose in her heart.

Yvette’s first reaction was to wonder whether her mother’s disappearance was related to the head of the Beckford family, Keith.

Stephen had the same thought. Now, it seemed that Keith had a certain suspicion. But Stephen couldn’t be sure about it.

There was no conclusive evidence to prove that Keith had Alena in his hand.

Moreover, Keith’s private life was very simple. He had no wife or mistress.

There was even a rumor which said that Keith liked men.

Otherwise, why didn’t Keith have a woman?

Keith was a healthy man. It was indeed strange that a man like Keith, who was powerful and wealthy in Iceland, didn’t have a wife or even a mistress.

However, Keith did not care about the gossip. He never responded to the questions about his sexual orientation. Occasionally, some women wanted to get close to Keith, but Keith would mercilessly drive them away.

Over time, no women dared to get close to Keith.

But there was another rumor. It was not that Keith did not love women, but he had an unforgettable woman in his heart. That was why he had never married or found a mistress for so many years.

Stephen said, "I will investigate this matter. The head of the Beckford family has a strange personality. Yvette, you must not contact him in private. Do you understand?"

Yvette nodded and said, "OK."

Now that Yvette was pregnant, she would definitely not run around. Moreover, Yvette had no good impression of Keith. When Yvette saw Keith, she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

If Keith really had something to do with Alena’s disappearance, Yvette believed that Marlon would definitely be able to find it out.

If Yvette went to find Keith personally, it would cause trouble for Marlon.

Moreover, Yvette was not that stupid. If Keith really had something to do with Alena’s disappearance, Yvette was definitely no match for Keith. Yvette couldn’t save her mother on her own. Besides, if Yvette went to contact Keith personally, she might even put herself in danger, which would only make Marlon’s investigation even more difficult.

Even if Stephen didn’t elaborate on these things to Yvette, Yvette would still be obedient and stay at home.

After eating, Yvette went to accompany Marlon. Marlon still hadn’t woken up because the effect of the anesthetic hadn’t disappeared yet.

An hour later, Stephen came to let Yvette go to sleep.

Yvette could only listen to Stephen and go to sleep. She understood that getting enough sleep was very important to pregnant women.

With Stephen taking care of Marlon, there was nothing that Yvette should worry about.

Yvette returned to the room, but she could not fall asleep. Yvette habitually took out her phone, wanting to listen to books to help her sleep.

When Yvette was about to click on the book-reading app, she accidentally clicked open the news app. The first page of the news was that the president of the Wolseley Group had not shown himself for many days and was photographed by reporters doing rehabilitation in the hospital. The future of the Wolseley Group was unpromising.

But soon, the Wolseley Group issued a statement, saying that Lance went to the hospital because of his poor sleep.

The Wolseley Group was currently under the management of the president, Lance, and the acting vice president, Marcus. And everything was normal. The Wolseley Group stated that the media shouldn’t spread false news. The media could pay more attention to the production situation of the Wolseley Group, not the president’s private affairs.

In the news, Lance’s figure appeared in the hospital. Just from the photos taken by the media, it could be seen that Lance had lost a lot of weight.

The already clear lower jawline was even clearer.

But the unhealthy hue on Lance’s face seemed to have dissipated a little. Yvette was very pleased that Lance could be positive in his rehabilitation and had become healthier.

If Lance’s legs couldn’t recover, Yvette might find it hard to feel at ease for the rest of her life.

...

After Alena put on her clothes, Keith entered the room. He was wearing a dark red velvet dress today. He looked elegant and gentle.

Keith’s face was not as cold and gloomy as before. Instead, he had a faint smile on his face. It looked like he was very happy today.

After Keith entered the room, he saw that Alena was wearing a high-collared sweater, a fur coat, and a pink diamond necklace on her neck.

Keith approached and looked at the pink diamond necklace. He smiled and asked Alena, "Why don’t you wear the Heart of Ocean?"

Alena said, "That one doesn’t suit the clothes today."

Indeed, Alena’s coat today was plum red. It was a little incompatible with the Heart of Ocean.

Red and blue didn’t match.

Alena did a twirl and said, "Do I look good today? I finally got a chance to go out. I want to wear something more festive."

Alena sounded a little aggrieved.

Keith smiled and said, "You look good. You can wear whatever you like."

"Then let’s go."

Alena took the initiative to hold Keith’s arm. She looked very happy.

Keith glanced at Alena’s hands, which were holding his arm. No one could tell whether the expression on Keith’s face now was happy or unhappy.

There seemed to be a deep meaning behind Keith’s indifferent expression.

Alena was full of joy because she was about to go out later. Thus, she did not notice Keith’s abnormality.

After getting in the car, Alena looked at the scenery outside excitedly.

For so long, this was the first time Alena had breathed the air outside. It was the smell of freedom.

After being locked up for so long, Alena had already lost the ability to communicate with others.

Alena had also forgotten what the world outside looked like.

Seeing that Alena was happy, Keith also had a faint smile on his face.

As the car sped along the road, Alena gradually felt that something was wrong.

This place did not look like a place to have fun.

Alena turned around and asked Keith, "Keith, where are we going?"
