PopularNovelChapter 547 Pretentious Scum So in her heart, he was now... Mr. Morris? Not Dan, the man he used to be? Marie's voice cthrough the phone, biting and sarcastic: "What's this? Still faking amnesia?" All that talk about memory loss-was it just an act? Otherwise, how did he explain this sudden shift in tone? Marie was convinced Dan had been faking it.
Otherwise, how could he talk to her like this now? With that kind of tone? If it was an act-then he was truly shameless. She'd heard of men lying for money or sex, but to lie about feelings? Five years. She'd endured it for five whole years. But now, she couldn't hold it in any longer.
She lashed out over the phone: "Scumbag!" Dan: "What?" What kind of insult was that? Was that even meant for a man? Dan's brain stalled for a moment.
But Marie was beyond reason now.
As Dan froze in disbelief, she went in even harder: "I said you're a lowlife who fakes feelings. A pretentious scum playing the victim." "What kind of karmic punishment did I suffer in my past life to end up with you, you emotionally manipulative dirtbag?" In her eyes, Dan pretending not to remember her was all fake.
Only a lowlife would pretend. Only a pretentious scum would fake love.
Now he was telling her to divorce Derrick? That just confirmed it for her-he had never forgotten her. He'd just pretended.
Dan's face turned ashen with rage at her outburst.
Cynn happened to walk in at that exact moment, ready to report something important-only to catch Marie yelling "scumbag" at Dan over the phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe froze on the spot.
Scumbag? 23:48 Mon, Aug 4 X Finished Chapter 547 Pretentious Scum The way she cursed was certainly... creative.
What kind of woman cursed a man like that? Dan's breathing grew ragged. "Marie." Marie snapped, "What are you yelling for? You're a scumbag. And you better never show your face in front ofagain. If I see you, I'll hit you." She didn't wait for a reply.
She hung up right then and there.
She was furious.
She couldn't accept the idea that she had been duped five years ago by this lying scumbag.
Dan stared at the phone, the dial tone buzzing in his ear as his mind roared with static.
His gaze shifted to the doorway-and darkened when he saw Cynn.
"You heard all that?" "N-No, I didn't," Cynn stammered, forcing out a weak smile.
But that smile was so awkward it only made Dan's face sink even darker.
Cynn really wanted to disappear.
He hadn't expected this at all...
This was supposed to be the heir of Falvaria's most prestigious family. How did things get this messy? Scumbag... The word still echoed in his ears. Coming from Marie, it was... surreal.
Dan: "Get out." Cynn's expression gave away everything-he had definitely heard.
Dan's head pounded. Five years. He had forgotten that woman for five whole years. He remembered what had happened in Frapucu. And the things he had said to her... That woman, who never let a grudge go, must hate him now with everything she had.
Cynn hesitated. "B-But I have something important to report..." If it weren't urgent, he'd be long gone. This was nightmare fuel.
Hearing someone curse out your boss like that? He half expected to be silenced on the spot.
2/3 23:48 Mon, Aug 4 G 70% 0 X Chapter 547 Pretentious Scum Dan's icy glare locked on him. "Speak." Cynn gathered his nerve: "Evelyn just met with Lance." Lance! That guy might seem unreliable, but he was a key connection in their current plans.
Lance wanted what they had. And they wanted to use Lance to secure another critical link.
So Evelyn meeting with him-Dan's face instantly darkened.
"What kind of dealings do they have?" "None, officially," Cynn replied.
Lance had been trying to connect with the Luke family for years, but he ve never had the qualifications. But now, Evelyn had met him in person.
Finished
If Evelyn met with Lance, and it wasn't about business. Dan couldn't believe Nwasn't because of Marie.
Cynn saw that Dan had gone quiet and added, "Could this be about what happened five years ago between you and Ms. Marie?" "I've heard the rumors. Evelyn and Abraham are both incredibly protective." Whether it was the Dawsons or the Lukes, everyone knew they were fiercely loyal to their own.
If Evelyn had reached out to Lance because of Marie- Then everything they'd worked on recently was probably a waste.
Evelyn's influence in Falvaria was no joke. Everyone knew what she was capable of.
Dan's face darkened further. Was it for Marie? It wasn't impossible...
Cynn pressed, "If this really is for Ms. Marie, then things could get very messy." After all, Dan had a history with Marie from five years ago-and now, he had a fiancée.
