Chapter 538 It Has Been Hard On Her
Marty's expression darkened as he realized how serious Roland was about Sophia.
"Mr. Blaine, your brother, he..."
Bell was stunned as well. Wasn't Roland supposed to be angry? Shouldn't he fly into a rage and abandon that b*tch, Sophia on the spot?
Marty looked away and looked at Bell disdainfully.
"Miss Buick, how did you get in?"
Bell finally came to her senses and looked at Lynn.
At this time, Lynn wished the ground would just swallow her up to escape the situation. "What an idiot! She can't even get things as simple as this done!"
However, she still maintained her composure and said a little apologetically, "Marty, I'm really sorry. If I had known that this would happen, I would never have let her in. I'm really sorry."
"You are..." Marty thought for a while before he remembered and asked, "Are you the heiress of the Arctic Group?"
Excited by the fact that Marty recognized her, she nodded happily. "Yes, I am now working for G. K.. Our director is too busy to attend the banquet, so he has given me the invitation card, and..."
She was still explaining, but Marty had no patience to listen to her anymore. He waved his hand to interrupt her words and said to the butler behind him, "Get these people out of here and be careful in the future. Don't simply let anyone in."
After that, he turned around and left.
Being held in Roland's arms, Sophia didn't return to the hall. Instead, they went to the tearoom on the other side of the resort.
Celestial Mountain Resort was very large, with all kinds of facilities and amenities. There was a garden with rockery and water too. It was a beautiful sight with moonlight shining on the silvery rock pathway.
Seeing that he had gone far, Sophia struggled slightly and said, "Let me down. I can walk by myself."
Roland frowned slightly. "Your feet hurt."
Sophia's face turned red as she thought of how she had lied about her feet just now.
That was why you shouldn't lie to anyone!
With that, she stopped struggling. Anyway, it was not the first time she was carried by Roland in his arms. She just needed to get used to it.
However, seeing that he was not heading in the direction of the exit, she could not help but ask, "Where are we going?"
"To meet my grandmother."
"Huh?" This time, Sophia truly was frightened. She struggled with all her strength. "Don't! Put me down first."
She struggled so hard that Roland had to put her down. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Under the moonlight, Sophia pursed her lips and her face was pale. She murmured softly, "Did you hear everything she said just now?"
Roland did not hide anything from her and nodded his head.
Sophia's face turned even paler.
"Don't you mind?"
"I don't mind."
"But..."
"Sophia!"
It was the first time that Roland interrupted her so seriously. He slightly lowered his head and looked at her fearful eyes. He seriously said, "It's all in the past. I just want to focus on our future."
"I just want to focus on our future."
How beautiful the sentence sounded!
Sophia felt like crying. Looking away, she blinked her eyes to hold her tears back. She said in a low voice, "But your family will mind."
For the first time, Roland felt that coaxing a woman was a difficult task, to which he had not mastered. In desperation, he could only comfort her in a soft voice, "I will handle these things. Since I dare to marry you, I will never let anything hurt you. Do you believe me?"
Sophia wanted to say that she believed in him, but she wondered if he could really handle those things?
She didn't think any family would accept her if they knew what had happened to her in the past.
Besides, it was the Blaine family.
After thinking for a long time, she shook her head and said, "Give me some time! I'm a little afraid now."
Sophia was afraid that happiness would not last long. When she woke up, she would find that it was just a dream. Therefore, she needed more time, a longer time for her to build her confidence and to believe that this was not a dream.
Roland looked at her with an indiscernible flicker in the depth of his eyes.
After a while, he sighed softly. "Well, I'll give you time, but I can't wait too long."
As he spoke, he gently wrapped an arm around Sophia's shoulders and planted a kiss on her forehead.
Sophia's heart swelled as she nodded.
......
On the other side, Ally Haltz was surprised that her granddaughter-in-law, Sophia was not here yet. When she saw Marty, she asked, "Marty, Roland said to bring his wife here to see me. Why isn't he here yet?"
Marty's mother was Ally's daughter, so Marty was her grandson. Hearing this, Marty walked to her side and sat down. He smiled and said, "Someone pissed Sophia off, so Roland took her home first."
Ally suddenly became angry. "Who did such a thing?"
Marty gave a weak smile. "Just some irrelevant people. I've already sent someone to kick them out."
As he spoke, Marty told her about what happened. Ally snorted coldly when she heard that. "Those b*thcy gossip mongers. Fortunately, Roland is a shrewd person. Otherwise, it could be hard on Sophia."
"That's right." Marty smiled and said, "If it wasn't for our family, Sophia wouldn't have been wronged like this two years ago."
Ally frowned. After a long while, she sighed and said, "Tell Roland to treat her better. Bring her back for dinner next time when he's free."
Marty nodded.
After leaving Celestial Mountain Resort, Marty returned to his villa.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw the butler coming to greet him in a hurry.
He glanced at him indifferently and asked, "What's the matter?"
The butler nodded and said in a low voice, "We have already dealt with Rita."
Marty paused for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, I see."
Although they had not found the culprit who had tampered with the drawbridge, it was quite an achievement to be able to settle the previous incident for the time being.
Although Evelyn had been wronged this time, Evelyn herself had never thought about how to deal with this matter.
Therefore, Marty took the matters into his hands for Evelyn's sake.
Since Rita was able to do such things to Evelyn under Marty's nose, she should have known the consequences that she would be facing for what she had done before.
Even if Evelyn was not someone he liked, a staff like Rita would be kicked out of the company by him anyway.
The butler said in a low voice, "The company has already completely banned her. Moreover, it has already terminated the contract with her and no one else will be allowed to hire her."
Seeing Marty still seemed a little unsatisfied, he quickly explained how they dealt with this matter.
Marty nodded after listening.
"Well, the most important thing for you now is to find the person who tampered with the drawbridge first."
