The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 619

Chapter 609 No Way Out

Sebastian froze.

What was he supposed to say? That the three of them dragged Derrick out of the hotel?

“Nope. Not happening,” he blurted out without even thinking.

There was no way he could say that out loud. Not unless he had a death wish.

Honestly, now that Marie had gone off twice in one day, even Derrick wasn’t exactly thrilled about showing up in front of her- and saying the words, “It was me who slept with you.”

“Derrick, have mercy, man,” Sebastian practically begged, on the verge of tears. “Why don’t you just tell her? You’ve got the skills. You can handle her if things get physical.”

But the moment the word handle left his mouth, Sebastian turned pale.

He immediately thought of Morris–how badly he got beaten down. The guy could fight, no doubt–but against Marie’s fury, Jhe didn’t stand a chance.

So imagine Derrick walking up to her now? He already knew how that scene would play out.

Derrick let out a cold snort. “You think if I go alone, that means you’re off the hook?”

Sebastian looked like he might cry. “Just don’t tell her we were the ones who dragged you out. Please.”

In his mind, the only way out of this was, for Derrick to confess–and take all the blame.

That was the only way the rest of them might survive.

Sebastian couldn’t stop thinking about the people Marie had already gone after. The way she left them battered and broken… Yeah, he was scared.

Before, he had been completely against Derrick confessing. But now? He was all for it.

“Derrick, please. Just go talk to her, okay?”

Derrick’s eyes narrowed. “Not yet.”

“What? Wait–for what?” Sebastian asked, panicked. “We can’t wait. If we wait any longer, someone’s seriously going to get hurt.”
