PopularNovelThe Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In Chapter 645 Collateral Damage Dale had barely stepped out of Dan's hospital room when the news reached Victor.
Finished Silas handed over what he'd found, and Victor let out a low chuckle. "I knew it-Dan is the current leader of the Ashen Pact.", He'd suspected it for a while but never had solid proof.
Now it was nearly confirmed: Dan wasn't just anyone-he was Dale's son.
But as for what had really gone down in the Ashen Pact back then... no one could untangle that mess.
It was all just too chaotic.
When Tessa heard Victor speak with such certainty, her face fell.
"What's with that look?" Victor asked, noticing the shift in her expression.
Tessa stared up at him. "Stella said Marie was going to trainfor a month. I'm the one asking for help here...” She didn't want to admit her ties to the Morris family, but blood was blood. No getting around that.
And now Dan-that piece of trash-had hurt Marie like that? Ugh...
Tessa was genuinely afraid Marie might take it out on her.
Victor blinked. "You're training with Marie? Are you sure?" "Positive." But now, given the situation...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSure, she wanted to train with Marie. But if Marie ever found out that Dan-the man behind everything- was her biological half-brother? That she and Dan shared the sfather? God.
She was so screwed.
Victor said flatly, "You stood outside in the cold for one afternoon and ended up with a high fever. And you want to train with Marie? You're not worried she'll kill you?" Tessa froze, Okay, she hadn't been worried before.
But now? Hell yes.
Victor added, "Marie's real good at dragging innocent people down with her. You'd better let go of that idea." 1/4 Chapter 645 Collateral Damage It wasn't an unfair accusation.
Finished Evie had stolen something from her, and Eddie still got beaten-twice. That was collateral damage if anything was.
Tessa's face was full of black lines.
Collateral damage-so anyone connected in any way was bound to suffer? Would Marie show mercy for Stella's sake? Ugh...
This was beyond unfair. She hadn't done anything. She didn't even know Dan.
She'd only overheard his voice earlier-hadn't even gotten a good look at his face.
If that was enough to drag her down, she'd be the most unlucky person on the planet. Wait-what was she even thinking? In this situation, there was no way she could keep training with Marie. That was a straight-up death wish. Forget it. She'd just call Stella and back out.
Far away in Yalvoria, Marie was fuming.
Evie, after being hounded endlessly, finally returned one thing she'd taken.
Just one.
Marie was already pissed that Stella had told her Dan was the Ashen Pact leader.
Now, staring at the tiny item Evie had returned, she was boiling over. "You stole half my stuff and you're givingback this?!" "I only picked up this one." Evie was shamelessly smug.
Marie fell silent.
Picked up? You "picked it up" in her room and it wasn't stealing? Evie saw the disgust on Marie's face. "Do you want it or not? If not, I'm keeping it." It was something she found lying around.
Marie gritted her teeth. "And the rest of it?" Evie shrugged. "Spent it." 15:46 Sat, 30 Aug 06 Chapter 645 Collateral Damage "What the hell did you do to spend that much?!" The things Marie had lost could've fed a poor family for generations.
And now Evie said it was gone? Seriously-what was it with women from the Yan family and burning through money like water? Marie nearly passed out from rage.
Evie said casually, "Don't act like you don't know what I spent it on." Marie went still.
That just pissed her off more.
She shot Evie a venomous glare.
Finished
Evie said, "Con, I know why you've been chasingdown, It's not really about this stuff-it's guilt over Derrick, right? You're avoiding him." "You don't really care about this junk. Just take it and let it go." She shoved the little trinket into Marie's hand.
Marie snapped, "Let it go? What about all the stuff you took-" "You gave it towillingly, remember? Let's not pretend." It wasn't a sweet apology, but somehow... it was the nicest thing she'd said.
Marie shot her a glare of pure prideful defiance.
But she stuffed the item into her bag anyway.
Then, glass of wine in hand, she said, "You really think Derrick had the guts to do that to me?"
Even though Derrick had called and admitted to it himself, Marie stilm didn't fully believe it. The content is Le on novelenglish.net! Guts were one thing.
But more importantly-he shouldn't have.
Derrick had never looked at her that way. Not once. Not since they were kids.
Evie replied bluntly, "No." Just two words, Marie's brow twitched. "Why not? I'm not pretty enough? I'm not charming enough?" She was asking a real question.
Evie had answered honestly.
And now Marie was slightly annoyed by that honesty.
