Chapter 678 Misunderstandings and Milbar Mayhem Sebastian looked absolutely miserable.

+8 Pearls Back when Derrick had decided to confess, he, Ashley, and Drax had all braced themselves for the storm. They were ready-mentally, emotionally-to face death.

They'd expected Marie to explode, to burn them all alive.

But... nothing happened.

Instead, she flat-out refused to believe Derrick was involved at all.

When Derrick heard Sebastian mutter, "Why doesn't she believe you?", his face turned dark.

Why? Because that woman didn't think he had the guts.

Of course, he couldn't say that out loud in front of Sebastian. All he said was, voice cold, "You sure she's pregnant?" Sebastian: "Why else would she be going after Dan right now?" Derrick was stunned.

Right. If it weren't something serious, she'd never have bothered.

He asked, "Are you sure she didn't take anything afterward?" Contraceptives.

Sebastian said, "She was fuming. Punching Dan, bashing Ella-when would she have had tto take a pill?" She'd been too busy throwing fists and rage to think about birth control.

Derrick thought about it. Made sense.

He turned to Kale. "We're going to Ashen Pact." "Huh? You..." "If we don't go now and she loses the baby, then what? You know her temper." Just thinking about Marie's temper gave Derrick a headache.

If she really was pregnant and still went off to fight Dan, her emotions alone could cause a miscarriage.

Sebastian went quiet.

1/4 13:03 Tue, 2 Sept A Chapter 678 Misunderstandings and Milbar Mayhem Miscarriage? What the hell-Derrick wanted the baby? Seriously? Marie didn't seem like the "have a baby and settle down" type.

+8 Pearls Marie arrived at Ashen Pact's territory.

The moment her plane touched down, her phone rang.

It was Derrick.

Seeing his nmade her pause. As much as their marriage was a business deal, they were legally married. And she wasn't the kind to treat even a transaction lightly.

She'd never meant to create inside the marriage... but well...

Feeling a little guilty, she answered, "Derrick." Her voice was softer than usual-definitely nothing like the one she used when yelling at Dan.

Derrick asked directly, "You're going after Dan?" She'd been MIA for nearly twenty days, and the moment she surfaced, she was on her way to beat Dan half to death: Clearly, she hated his guts.

"Yeah, how'd you know?" she replied, her voice laced with venom. Just saying Dan's nmade her want to snap his neck.

Derrick said flatly, "Don't go. The baby's mine." Marie blinked.

Huh? What was he talking about? Clearly, Derrick had spiraled into his own fantasy analysis and assumed-just like her-that she was pregnant and going after Dan because she thought it was his.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Whatever guilt she had instantly turned to annoyance.

"I said, the baby's mine." "I'm not pregnant, you idiot! Who told you that nonsense-was it Sebastian? Rip his damn lips 2/4 13:03 Tue, 2 SeptA Chapter 678 Misunderstandings and Milbar Mayhem off." +8 Pearls That loudmouth! He was as bad as Eddie. Useless at everything except talking crap.

Right beside Derrick, Sebastian clutched his face protectively when he heard her say that.

This woman's terrifying. Seriously, she wasn't just "tough" she had zero resemblance to your typical woman. She was a full-on war machine. Derrick gave Sebastian a side-eye sharp enough to kill.

Sebastian felt wronged and clutched his face even harder.

Derrick was so annoyed, he didn't even bother responding. He just turned away.

Marie added, "You know what? Send him to stay with Eddie. He's i He's in Milbar Desert right nowe maybe his mouth's finally dried up and his brain cleared out." The second Sebastian heard "Milbar Desert," he cursed her in his heart.

Poisonous witch.

Only a monster like Marie would suggest something like that.

Derrick calmly replied, "Sounds good." "Hey!" Sebastian panicked instantly.

Milbar Desert wasn't a place for people-it was hell on earth. He wasn't going there, no way! Eddie had been stuck out there for weeks and was practically losing his mind.

Watching Sebastian's exaggerated panic, Derrick ignored him and m ed to the call. Xif you're returned to the not pregnant, then why are you going after Dan?" "He stole Tessa! Derrick, I'm telling you this shameless bastard tried to setup again!" Her whole body was boiling with rage.

Manipulation, Sabotage.

That's all Dan ever did-scheming every chance he got to bring her down.

After hanging up, Marie rushed full speed toward Ashen Pact.

Meanwhile, Derrick...

His face had turned into a mix of emotions even he didn't know how to describe.
