PopularNovelThe Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In Chapter 670 The Climb Ugh, that woman's brutal.
50% +8 Pearls Before Tessa could even react, Marie threw her straight into the sea. Tessa was done. Mentally, emotionally- completely done.
"When we left Spada Island, two groups went ashore. One of them was your brother Dan's people." Tessa muttered, "He's not my brother." How many times did she have to say it? That bastard wasn't her brother. Her mom had only ever given birth to one daughter-her.
Marie said, "It doesn't matter. What you need to know is that they went there to kill you." Tessa went quiet.
Hearing it from Marie like that...
The swirling sense of danger suddenly felt a lot more real.
Marie added, "You don't have much time. Start swimming." The moment she heard "not much time," Tessa gave in and started swimming toward the island.
Out on the sea, things looked close-but they were really, really far.
The water was freezing. Salty. Fishy...
Tessa had lived in comfort her entire life. She had never suffered anything close to this.
Sophia had someone bring over a chair for Marie, Marie sat down, and a glass of champagne was handed to her.
Sophia looked toward Tessa in the distance and smiled. “She's starting to shed her fear." "Her body's gotten tougher, but that brain still needs straining." Sophia was stunned.
How exactly were they supposed to train that? Sthings were just inborn-hard to fix.

Going to the Ashen Pact was dangerous.

"Mr. Victor sent Silas to Ashen Pact," Sophia said after a moment, turning to Marie.
Marie raised a brow.
"To find Diana?" Sophia nodded. "Yes." Marie smiled.
"Well, that seals it. Tessa leaves here and she's officially enemies with Dan." Tessa clearly held a special place in Victor's heart.
Sending Silas to Ashen Pact now...
It didn't take a genius to figure out that Victor already knew Dan's people had landed on Spada Island-and what they were planning to do.
Thinking of Dan made Sophia feel indignant on Marie's behalf.
"The way Dan moves... he doesn't hold back at all when it comes to you." If something happened to Tessa now...
Then no doubt about it-Diana would end up on the wrong side of the Dawson family. And Dan would've screwed Marie over yet again.
Only this time, he failed.
Marie gave a cold laugh. "What bond do I have with him?" One of the reasons she agreed to Stella's request this twas because she knew Dan had taken control of the Ashen Paci And the sodium mine deal he snatched from her father back then-Marie had never let that go.
That man used love as bait. And calculated everything.

That ncaught Marie's interest.
"The Ashen Pact sure is riddled with internal ." Until recently, no one even knew Dan had a younger half-brother. Sdad, different mom.
Manny.
He was the one Dale raised like his real son.
As for Dan... and even Tessa... in Dale's eyes, they meant nothing.
Marie glanced toward the shrinking head bobbing in the sea. "Poor girl's got it rough." Sophia followed Marie's gaze and nodded in agreement. Tessa really was unlucky.
"Getting a father like that? That's her curse."
"She's doing well just by finding the courage to face it," Marie said with a huff of laughter. Plenty of people in her shoes would've ended up dead already-no power to fight back at all.
But Tessa had managed to stand up, relying on Victor and Stella's network.
That alone was something.
Sophia nodded. "Yeah." Tessa didn't like adventure. Didn't like climbing.
She used to be a pampered little princess back in Rivermount, just waiting every month for her mom's allowance to cin.
And now...
After soaking in the ocean, she was dragging herself up a steep clitt From a distance, the mountain hadn't looked that tall.
But standing here, she realized it was massive... and there were barely any footholds.
The curve of the cliff didn't help either. It was crescent shaped, and ve! more than once, she'd 3/4 13:01 Tue, 2 Sept A Chapter 670 The Climb climbed less than five meters before slipping right off.
The sky grew darker.
The sea breeze picked up...
It was cold. Bone-chillingly cold.
