Anyone hearing it might've thought Marie had been secretly in love with Derrick for years and was finally getting her wish.
When the recording played, Marie was completely stunned... No way. This guy actually recorded that? If he wasn't working as a spy, then what a waste of talent.

what it sounded like." Stella helped Marie fix her clothes, while Marie kept grumbli "That shameless Derrick. What the hell is wrong with hi nonstop.
Who the hell thinks to record something at a tlike that?" Seriously, who does that? Normal people wouldn't even think of it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"But Derrick did..." Marie scowled. "That bastard." Ugh, she was fuming.
Stella nodded. "You said it yourself. He's shameless. Who knows what he recorded that for?" At that, Marie's face darkened again.
Exactly. What was Derrick planning with that recording? Stella guessed, "Trying to blackmail my brother?" Marie clapped her hands. "Right! He and Abraham were in the study talking at the time-he must've been recording Abraham." That had to be it.
She'd walked in and seen just Derrick and Abraham in the study. What else could it be? Hearing that, Stella paused.
Then she picked up her phone. "I'm calling Abraham." What the hell was Derrick up to? Recording while talking to Abraham? That wasn't something a normal person would do.
The call went through quickly.
"Is the wedding dress here?" Abraham asked.
"No," she said.
Not yet.

We think he recorded the conversation with you. Probably trying to use it against you." She quickly got to the point.
On the other end, Abraham's gaze turned cold behind his gold-rimmed glasses.
"He recorded me?" "Yeah. He said Marie would never agree to marry him, and then suddenly played a clip of her saying 'I do.' We're thinking... he was recording when you two were talking. What he really caught, only you would know. He's probably trying to pin something on you." In just a few words, she covered the whole picture.
Abraham's eyes narrowed. If Derrick was scheming while talking to him...
So, you're tired of living well in Falvaria? Back in Paggina, the guy had been desperate to return.
Abraham said coldly, "Don't worry. He wouldn't dare." Blackmail him? That would mean Derrick had a death wish.
Stella added, "Still, be careful around him. Even if he's smoothed-thing's er with you and Mom, Marie and I over wi O buy it." Abraham had said Derrick was a good person.
But Stella didn't believe that. Neither did Marie.
That mess all those years ago-Derrick might've made it sound reasonable, and sof it even added up. But after so long, the details were fuzzy. Abraham replied, "I know." "Okay, I'll hang up. Go back to work." "Mm."
After hanging up, Abraham's eyes were icy. He took off his glasses and rubbed his aching temples. "Have all of Derrick's claims been verified?" Abel nodded. "All of them. They check out." Abraham didn't respond. He slid his glasses back on, but the chill in his eyes lingered. Abel hesitated, then asked, "Are we really going to let Ms. Marie marry Mr. Derrick?" "Marie's got her own mind. She'll run Derrick straight into a nervous breakdown." At that, Abel's mouth twitched.
No lies detected.
No one knew what Derrick was really planning by suddenly proposing to Marie.
But the man had clearly forgotten one thing-Marie and Evie were Falvaria's most dangerous women. Period.
