Tyler's heart pounded in his chest as he heard Marcus's voice pierce the silence of the room. His eyes and entire body vibrated; he knew he had just heard Marcus's voice. Shock reverberated through him as he turned to face the young master. His expression was filled with relief and excitement; he wasn't expecting to hear the young master's voice today. He immediately walked closer to him.“Young master, you're awake! Thank goodness, is this a dream or what?”Tyler exclaimed, unable to contain the smile that spread across his face as he gazed at the young master, who was still in bed.“I thought you were going to sleep for ages. Everyone has been so worried about you. Thank goodness you're awake now.”Confusion clouded Marcus's features as he struggled to comprehend Tyler's words. He could hear what Tyler was saying, but he couldn't understand what he meant by the words. How can he say they thought he would sleep for ages?With a low voice, he utters.“I only dozed off for a few hou
At that moment, Marcus couldn’t help but agree with what Tyler had just said. He knew what he was trying to do, but at the same time, he had a point. Though the anger simmered inside him was unbearable, he recognized the truth in Tyler's words: he was in no state to drive, not when he knew what had happened to Hazel. The one he did the other time was nothing compared to this, since he was asleep for two days, which means Hazel has been with them for two days.He couldn't help but nod his head. With the look on his face, one would tell he was angry and the same disappointment in himself as conceded to Tyler, and Tyler quickly led the way to where the car was parked without saying a word. He would rather not anger the young master in any way; it's best to remain quiet and do what he planned to do.He had decided to be the young master’s driver from now on until his wife was safe and knew who was behind everything.They arrived where the car was parked, and Marcus slid into the back se
However, Marcus’s face was flushed with anger and disappointment at that moment. He knew Penelope doesn't like him, and she has every right to be mad at him in a situation like this, but not her accusing him wrongly in front of Ivy and wanting her to know about her mother's disappearance; he didn’t want Ivy to hear about that. He covered Ivy's ears even more, trying to shield her from the harsh words and the reality of their situation. He needed to find a way to fix this, to bring Hazel back and make things right for Ivy. He knew the more time he waste, the more dangerous the situation become. He had already wasted two days, and he couldn't waste anymore. At that moment, all he could do was make sure Ivy never heard of this, and he promised himself he would do everything in his power to find Hazel.Marcus decided to snob Penelope.“Ivy, sweetheart”Marcus began, his voice steadying as he tried to calm her.“Mommy will come back soon. She's just taking care of something important;
Marcus nodded to what David just said. It seems they have been doing their part to make sure Hazel is safe, and he appreciates David remaining calm and not acting like Penelope, who wants him out with every little opportunity she can get.However, he thought for a moment, his mind racing with the possibility of Hazel in a difficult situation, and at the same time he didn't know what to do, but just to calm everyone's mind down, he said.“I'll hire a private investigators. We need to cover all our bases and understand what is going on. And I'll reach out to everyone I know who might be able to help. I'm sure before the end of today I will understand what is going on, and I'm sure Hazel will be free soon. That is a promise.”Penelope at that moment gazed at Marcus with dead eyes; she couldn't believe what the fool was saying; he couldn't help but yell at Marcus again.“I just can't believe you're acting this way when my daughter has been kidnapped. You're acting as if it doesn't concer
Marcus stormed toward the entrance of MK, his face twisted with anger. He doesn't have time to exchange words with anyone. If anybody tries to get in his way, that person is going down; he doesn't care who it would be. He moved with purpose, each step heavy with determination written all over his face. The security guards stationed at the door noticed Marcus approaching with a look on his face. They could tell he was angry, and they can't allow him inside because of security reasons. They exchanged uneasy glances, recognizing the fury etched on his face. It looks like someone had offended him, and he's here to fight. They decided they had to stop him from entering MK. That is the best they could do. Someone like this can destroy something inside, and they are going to get punished for it.One of the steps forward.“Sir, you can't go in there.” He said this with a confident look on his face as he stepped forward to block Marcus's path.Marcus glared at him, his eyes blazing. He
At that moment, Robert's phone rang. Seeing it was the young master, he answered the call immediately. His heartbeat increased, and he put the phone in his ear.“Hello, young master.” Robert said. The disappointment in his voice was unmistakable; he knew why the young master was calling, and he doesn't have any answers to give.Marcus wasted no time, as he went straight to the point. “Robert, tell me you have something to tell me, ever since I was away, you’ve gotten the lead to bring down the person behind Marilyn. Tell me you have everything that we can work with.”Robert, feeling the weight of the question in his heart, He shook his head in disappointment. He didn't have anything the young master was asking for. With a low, disappointed voice, he uttered.“I’m so sorry, young master. I have failed you. All the contacts I called and those who promised to look into it disappointed me. Some provided wrong information; others said they didn't know anything. I tried calling you to te
Marcus answered the call with a curious look on his face. Something tells him the caller would be the person who kidnapped Hazel; perhaps it might be Marilyn herself; he would not be surprised if she was the one calling him. He glanced at the unfamiliar number before bringing the phone to his ear.“Hello, who is this?”He asked, his voice steady but laced with a hint of curiousness as he awaited to hear the voice of the person. His hand held his phone tightly as he awaited, but after some seconds, he still hadn't heard from the caller. Marcus then says it again.“Who is this? You called me, and you refused to say something.”At that moment.On the other end of the line, Willie nodded to himself. He decided to keep quiet for some time so he could put fear in Marcus and he wouldn't dare say nonsense. From the look of things, it seems he has gotten it, so he decided to get straight to the point.“Marcus, is it me the one who holds something so dare to you? You can call me, Willie.”He
At that moment, Marcus turned to face Tyler, his expression intense. Without being told, he could tell the young master wasn't happy, and the call he just received was from the kidnapper who held his wife, he couldn't help but feel disappointed in himself.Marcus utters.“Stay on standby.” He instructed his voice firm and filled with all seriousness.“I'm expecting a call, and I can't waste any more time. When I receive it, we will be going to the location immediately.”Tyler nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation, and he took a step back, ready to act anytime he was called upon. That is the only thing he can do now.Marcus then brought out his phone and quickly dialed Robert's number. He knows that to make everything quick and easy for him, Robert will be the only one who can get such an amount of money quickly without breaking a sweat. Even though he was mad at everyone around him, he needed them now. At this moment, every little help he can get will go a long way.At
