Chapter 380

At that, the surroundings fell silent, including the managers who had been discussing and even Naomi, who was still sobbing.
Only Ronan was ready to play along. “Exactly, I was just thinking the same thing. Mr. Quinnell, now that Ms. Sevie has been found, why are you still treating this unrelated person like a treasure? It’s not right, is it?”
“Ronan!” Shane was truly angry now, his temper flaring. “Don’t think I won’t dare to deal with you! Security, what are you waiting for? Throw them out!”
The security guards were about to make a move.
But then Wolf appeared, grabbing several of them, and signaled to Wynter with his eyes.
The meaning was clear—he had found the person he had been looking for.
Wynter raised an eyebrow and was ready to follow Wolf.
Before she could move, a new voice cut in from the other side.
“Shane, what are you doing to my guests?”
It was Marie. She seemed to always be wearing a hospital gown, and her dark hair flowed smoothly. Combined with her pale lips, her face appeared even paler and more fragile, like a delicate painting that would shatter with a touch.
Even time seemed to have left little wrinkles on her face.
The managers, Logan, and the others hadn’t seen her in six or seven years.
Now that she had appeared before them, she was still the same as before, as if time had stopped for her. Besides becoming much thinner, she had not changed at all.
It was clear she had been well cared for as she looked beautiful and dignified.
Upon seeing Marie, Shane immediately restrained his attitude. He took a deep breath and held her hand. “When did you wake up? Why didn’t you call me?”
Marie did not answer his question. Instead, she looked at him with clear eyes, and her voice was calm. “Were you just trying to drive my savior away?”
“Savior? Was she the one Vincent mentioned?”
Was Wynter that fake heiress with ill intentions? No wonder he found her so unpleasant.
Shane didn’t finish his sentence as he did not want to upset Marie. “Marie, I didn’t know she was the young lady who saved you last night.”
“Well, now you know. Shouldn’t you apologize?” Marie raised her eyebrow.
For some reason, Shane found this gesture familiar. “I… Marie, there are so many people here, and the situation is complicated.”
At his words, Marie pushed his hand away without saying anything else.
She walked straight to Wynter, and her face showed the most sincere apology. “Wolf said you were very worried about me, so you had Logan and the others bring you to find me. I’m sorry for all the trouble.”
“It’s fine.” Wynter looked at the person in front of her, and the hostility that had just emerged was replaced by a very gentle manner. She reached out to touch Marie’s face.
Seemingly aware of her intention to get close, Marie smiled and reached out to hold her hand.
“I remember you asking me to find you, but I couldn’t wake up despite wanting to. Luckily, you came to find me. Young lady, I’m very happy.”
Fiona watched this scene, then looked at Naomi standing beside her. She couldn’t help but exclaim, “Mrs. Quinnell, do you know that this young lady bullied Ms. Quinnell?”
“She bullied Naomi?” Marie’s eyes glazed over as she repeated softly, “She bullied Naomi. Someone bullied Naomi.”
The fact that something wasn’t right about the situation was the first thought that crossed everyone’s mind.
“Is Mrs. Quinnell about to have an episode?” Austin said while trembling.
Logan was also afraid. “Don’t talk nonsense!”
Shane was even sterner than before, stepping forward quickly. It seemed like he was going to take Marie upstairs.
