PopularNovelChapter 684 Stirring the Chaos Victor knew that taking Tessa away would send Marie into a frenzy.
And now? It was happening.
"She doesn't know I took her?" +8 Pearls She was storming Ashen Pact right now-there was no doubt in his mind it was over Tessa.
Silas blinked. "Wait... You didn't tell Marie you were taking Miss Su?" Victor gave a snort through his nose.
That said it all-he hadn't told her. Which meant Marie had no idea he was the one who took Tessa.
Not that he would've told her anyway.
She'd hidden Tessa away so tightly that for over two weeks, Victor had been nearly losing his mind trying to find her.
"So you basically... stole her?" Lewis piped up from the side.
The moment he said it, both Silas and Victor looked at him like they wanted to skin him alive.
Lewis froze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat? What did I say? Mr. Abraham had always said: if you take anything without someone's knowledge, it's considered stealing.
So even if it was their boss-if he didn't tell Marie-wasn't it still stealing? Silas was done with him. He smacked the back of Lewis's head.
"Can you shut up? That's not stealing. She's our sister-in-law. Marie's the one who stole her last time." "...Oh. Got it." Lewis muttered, rubbing his head.
But deep down, he still felt both times were the same. Whether it was Marie last tor Victor now-neither had played fair Seeing Lewis sulk like that, Silas ignored him completely and turned back to Victor.
"Bro, maybe you should explain this to Marie?" 1/4 14:23 Wed, 3 Sept Chapter 684 Stirring the Chaos 2A 76%D +8 Pearls "Explain what?" Victor scoffed. "What's there to explain?" Silas was stunned.
Nothing to explain? If he didn't explain, Marie was definitely going to kill Dan.
Lewis chimed in, "Even if he explains, she won't believe it." Silas blinked. "Huh?" Lewis went on, "Remember when Mr. Derrick slept with her? She didn't believe him either. Ended up beating the crap out of Dan." "In Marie's eyes right now, every bad thing is Dan's fault." Silas frowned. "That's not the sas this." The situations were completely different.
Last time, she didn't trust Dan. But this time? If Victor just said the word, she'd believe him without a doubt. Silas finally understood.
This whole thing's a damn mess.
He looked at Victor again. "She's probably attacking Ashen Pact right now because she's afraid you'll go after Dan." After all, in her mind, Dan was the one who took Tessa. And Victor? He wouldn't let that slide.
Victor waved it off. "Forget it..." But mid-sentence, his tone shifted, A glimmer of something dark and playful flashed in his eyes. "Keep searching for Tessa." Silas blinked. "Keep... searching?"/ That meant Marie would keep believing Dan was the one who took her? Wait, what- This was already a disaster, and now they were making it worse? Ashen Pact was about to beca warzone.
214 14:23 Wed, 3 Sept WI Chapter 684 Stirring the Chaos Victor took a sip of red wine. “Dan wants to stay out of this and take a breather? Ha." Not a chance.
That last scoff was dangerously cold.
Silas finally understood Victor's game.
He was forcing Ashen Pact into the crossfire.
Dan wanted to use Diana to get rid of Dale and Manny.

But Victor wasn't the kind to play nice. When Dan eventually reaped the rewards, it'd be at the cost of hurting both Diana and Tessa. So Victor was going to drag him into the fight now.
By the tthis ended, Dan would be bled dry-his power crippled.
"Got it. I'll send our people to help Marie."
Since Marie was already at Ashen Pact, they'd put on a show and send their ir men toot helping her "demand Tessa back from Dan." And just like that, Ashen Pact wasn't just dealing with Derrick.
Victor's forces were on the move as well.
When Dan got the news, he knew right away-he was losing control of the entire situation.
Back on Palm Island...
Tessa drifted in and out of sleep. The tshe'd spent with Marie had utterly drained her.
Now that she finally had the chance to rest, she wanted to sleep forever.
But her stomach wouldn't let her.
Eventually, hunger forced her up. Groggy and dazed, she stumbled out of the room.
What greeted her was an endless expanse of ocean.
Tessa froze.
Uh...

God knew how much she hated the sea right now.

Just the other day, she'd woken up in the middle of the ocean and ended up being chased by a giant whale. She used to love the vastness of the sea. Used to love the freedom of the ocean breeze.
