The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 526 You’re Asking Me to Compensate You Now?

They were really demanding compensation?

Marie was honestly curious to hear what kind of outrageous terms they’d come up with.

She’d seen some wild things before, but this–this was on another level.

Cynn said calmly, “As for compensation, that’s up to our boss. Ms. Marie, would you mind coming with us?”

Kale quickly stepped in. “I don’t think that’s appropriate, especially since they’re here to get married. Don’t you think it’s a little out of line to take her away now?”

Derrick narrowed his eyes at Cynn, danger flashing beneath the surface.

Marie looked straight at Derrick. “We’re getting married, right? So, are you letting me go or

not?”

Derrick’s expression darkened.

This woman really knew how to stir the pot. No wonder she’d gotten involved with Dan in the first place.

Look at that smug mouth of hers…

“You trying to drag me into your mess with Dan?”

Marie said flatly, “You’re marrying me, aren’t you? My mess is your mess.”

Go on, isn’t this what you wanted?

Derrick let out a low, dangerous laugh.

He glanced coldly at Cynn. “My wife isn’t going anywhere with you.”

The words “my wife” came through clenched teeth.

Cynn’s face sank. He had a Bluetooth earpiece in, and whatever he was hearing clearly made his expression grow even colder.

“In that case, Ms. Marie, don’t blame us for what happens next.”

With that, he pulled out a… gun.

Wait, seriously?
