Chapter 368

"She is alright, Madam. Marlon ambushed us last night, and we barely escaped. We’re staying in San Diego right now, in one of Henry’s newest apartments," Michael replied. "Madam, how did you convince the cook to hand you the phone? Is something wrong?"
Dahlia took a deep breath and muttered, "Marlon planned to kill me tonight. That’s why I’m escaping from the mental hospital before it’s too late."
"Then, I will dispatch my subordinate to bring you to San Diego—"
"No, I have my own people," Dahlia said. "Besides, Marlon is after my head right now. I’m afraid he’ll find out about the hiding spot if I join you and Kate."
"I can’t risk Kate’s safety, so I will move out to my villa in Michigan," Dahlia said. "Marlon doesn’t know about this villa, and it’s far from California. So it’ll be out of his radar."
"I will send the location once I’ve arrived in my villa. I want you to drive to Michigan with Kate. That would be the safest place for all of us," Dahlia instructed.
Michael sensed that Dahlia would not take no for an answer, but he still wanted to debate his case, "Madam, a flight would be too dangerous. Marlon’s men might find us in the airport."
"Then drive to Michigan. This is an order, Michael. I guarantee you, this will be the safest place for her," Dahlia assured. "Besides, it’s closer to New York, so Henry could visit her anytime."
Michael was finally convinced after weighing the pros and cons. It was obvious that Henry was madly in love and could be lovesick if he couldn’t meet Kate for a long time.
So this was the best option to give Kate a secure place and allow Henry to visit her sometimes.
