And Mr. Hebert, I may have had a crush on you before, but I was a fool that time, and I might even

have a crush on a dog when I see one.

Besides, I’m not a priest. You don’t have to swear in front of me how much you love Carly. I don’t

care at all. I wish you guys have a baby soon.”

Ira’s face turned red when he heard what she said. He had been flattering himself for so long, and

Marie didn’t even take him seriously!

Marie didn’t want to talk to them, so she turned around and was about to leave. However, Carly

grabbed her and said, “Won’t just let you go of what happened last time that easily!”

Marie shook her off and put away her smile. “It’s true that I won’t let go of what happened last time.

Carly, do you know why I’m jealous of you?”

Carly was stunned and asked, “What?”

“You yourself are mediocre, but you occupy the position and identity that originally belonged to

me! These are the things I’m jealous of, remember? I’ve said many times that everything you have

is mine!” Staring at her, Marie said word by word.

Carly held the wine glass and leaned pitifully against Ira, looking like she was about to cry.

Ira comforted her and grabbed Marie back. He looked at her with dissatisfaction and said, “Marie, we

are a family. How can you bully Carly like this?”

Marie took the glass from Carly and poured half a glass of champagne on Ira’s face. Everyone around

was stunned. He was the son of the Hebert family, and she dared to pour wine in public?

While Ira was stunned, Marie shook off his hand, put the wine glass on the dining table, picked up a

tissue and wiped her wrist that Ira had touched. She said, “Mr. Hebert, I’ll say it one last time. I’m not

familiar with you. Don’t call me Marie, call me Ms. Spence. Also, Carly and I have never been a family,

so you and I aren’t family neither!”

Without waiting for Ira to speak, Marie turned around and left. Dereon was envious of her shrewdness.

He had wanted to approach her, but he was called away by Olive Spence.

Sitting alone in the corner, Marie looked at Carly who was wiping Ira’s clothes with a tissue. The drink

ruined his hair and shirt, so Carly could only leave with him.

She drank one glass after another. If it weren’t for her grandfather seeing her in a bad mood these

days, he wouldn’t force her to come out for a walk and meet these weirdos.

ou’ve got some nerve, Marie!” She turned around and saw Andres Robert in a white suit sitting

next to her. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

“Yeah, I’ve always been bold.” Marie pursed her lips.

“That guy from the Hebert family seems to be interested in you.” Andres pointed at Dereon, who

looked over from time to time.

Marie sipped her champagne and said, “Then what should we do? Can you break his legs for me and

tell him to stay away from me?”

“He’s the son of the Hebert family. How can we beat him so easily?” Said Andres.

Leaning back on the sofa, Marie narrowed her eyes and said, “I thought you were all very arrogant, but

it turns out that you don’t dare.”

Marie’s face was red. Andres didn’t know how much champagne she had drank alone before he

“Us? Who am I with?” Andres asked.

“Dennis. He is very arrogant and scary,” said Marie.

“Really? But you seem not afraid of him if you believe he’s scary.?” Andres asked.

Squinting her eyes, she was already a little confused. She had been in a bad mood these days, and

she had just been attacked by Olive and Carly Spence. She had drank a lot, and her head was a little

heavy.

“I’m afraid he’ll…” Marie murmured.

She was afraid that the man would come up to her, tear down the wall she had erected, and leave her

after seeing her true self.

She was afraid that one lie after another, the truth of herself would be revealed one day, and she would

eventually pay the price for it.

“Marie?” Andres called her, but she leaned back on the sofa with narrowed eyes, not making a sound.

Andres Robert was helpless. He couldn’t leave Marie alone under this circumstances.

Noel Spence walked over and said, “I’ll take care of her.”

Andres was stunned. “Are you… Mr. Spence?”

Noel nodded. “Okay. I’ll take care of Marie. Thank you.”

Since her big brother was here, there was no reason for Andres not to let her go. However, he felt that

he should still take his brother’s side.

Andres sneaked out and called Dennis, who answered the phone in a cold voice, “What?”

“Mr. Whitney, did you know that Olive Spence held a banquet today?” Andres asked.

“I don’t know and I’m not interested.” Dennis was about to hang up.

“Marie is here too!” said Andres immediately.

Dennis paused, “Then what?”

“She seems to be in a bad mood. She’s drunk. If you don’t come, there will probably be so many

people who want to send her back home.” Andres smiled happily.

“What do you mean?” Dennis asked.

“I noticed that her brother is not on the same side with the two drama sisters from the Spence

family. He seems to be quite concerned about her. Dereon has been coveting her all night and is eager

to send her home. No matter how bad it is, Zane is willing to send her home.”

Andres said a lot, as if he’s having so much fun with it.

Dennis’s face was getting darker and darker. He hadn’t contacted her for only two days, and she was

surrounded by so many escorts?

“Mr. Whitney, if you don’t come over, I won’t keep an eye on her for you. Mr. Spence is taking care of

her, and I don’t think she needs me.” Andres continued to irritate Dennis.

The sound of a man closing the door came from the other side, and within a few minutes, there was a

sound of engine.

“What do you want? Just say it.” Dennis stepped on the accelerator and rushed out of the

garage.

“Give me the racing car you just got last month.” Andres had coveted Dennis’s car for a long time, but

Dennis wouldn’t give it to him.

“Come and get the key.” Dennis said.

“Got it! Mr. Whitney, don’t worry! No one will take Marie away before you comey!” Andres hung up the

phone happily.

Marie seems to be so important to Dennis. He was so stingy about his racing cars. He has been

begging him for so long, but he wouldn’t even consider about it. Now he just gave it to him right

away.

When Andres found Marie, she had already fallen asleep on the sofa, frowning, looking very

uncomfortable.

Noel asked the waiter to bring her a glass of warm water. After feeding Marie a few mouthfuls, she

couldn’t drink anymore.

By now, she could not sit still on the sofa and wanted to lie down. Noel had no choice but to send

Marie back first.

He was about to help Marle up when Andres came in and asked, “Mr. Noel, are you leaving?”

Noel nodded. He recognized Andres, he was very close to Dennis Whitney and Gavin Hart.

“She’s drunk. I’ll take Marie back first,” Noel said.

Andres stopped him and said, “Does Mr. Noel know about Whitney Group’s new project?”

Noel was stunned. “I’ve heard about it. What’s wrong?”

“Won’t you try to compete with us, Mr. Noel? Working with Whitney Group is a big deal!” Andres

said.

He had no choice. He was not familiar with Noel, and there was nothing to talk about except business.

Besides, Dennis also told him not to reveal his identity of the boss of Global Medias!

“Can Mr. Robert be in charge of Whitney Group?” Noel asked.

“Well… Mr. Noel, if you’re interested, I can talk to Mr. Whitney and consider it as making friends.”

Andres smiled awkwardly.

Noel frowned. He felt that Andres was wasting his time talking to him. He said, “Let’s talk about it

tomorrow. I’ll take Marie back now.

Before Andres could speak, Noel bent down and picked up Marie.

Mr. Whitney, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I really have nothing to talk about! Andres

thought.

Unexpectedly, the moment she was picked up by Noel, Marie instantly opened her eyes.

Her eyes were clear, alert, and murderous. She stared straight at Noel and said in a hoarse voice, “Let

go of me!”

Noel was stunned and said, “Marie, you’re drunk. I…”

“Let go of me!” Marie raised her hand abruptly and placed it on Noel’s throat.

She had drunk too much and didn’t have much strength. Although her hand was soft, Noel could still

feel the two acupuncture points that she pressed precisely, and he felt a little sore.

That kind of accurate hit was like instinct. She didn’t need to look at it at all to know where the death

acupuncture point was.
