“Besides, we don’t need to turn around to get to Shoneport University. It’s on our way,” Ashton added.

Briar was speechless.

The stern expression she had maintained the entire time finally cracked, and she shot Ashton a fierce glare.

Ashton found his wife’s glare incredibly comforting. He thought his little girl looked her best when she was lively and cute.

It broke his heart to see her with a tense face and cold eyes.

Ashton reached out and ruffled Briar’s hair. “Let’s go back, freshen up, change our clothes, and grab a bite to eat before we go find Marvin, okay?”

But Briar said nothing.

“Marvin isn’t going anywhere,” Ashton continued to coax her. “There’s no need to rush. You need to rest. Besides, our conversation with him will take a while. You should give him some time to gather his thoughts, shouldn’t you?”

“Gather his thoughts?” Briar retorted.

“Of course, to gather his thoughts – on how to face your questions!” Ashton said.

If Griffin’s hint was correct, then Marvin must have received the news by now.

Marvin was probably waiting for Briar to show up; no reminder needed.

After a long moment, Briar reluctantly nodded. “Fine. Let’s go back to the villa first.”

“You’re such a good girl,” Ashton sighed in relief.

He wasn’t worried about Marvin escaping; his mind was entirely focused on the two sedatives that had been injected into Briar.

He worried that her extreme anger had prevented the sedatives from taking full effect.
