Just thinking about how savage Marie had looked that day made Dan’s chest tighten again.

Especially since everyone who’d been playing cards with him got dragged into it too.

Dennis said, “She only hit you because she happened to be in Falvaria that day. Just wait till she comes back -she’ll definitely go after Mr. Derrick. And at least she had some feelings for you before, so she held back. She won’t do the same for Mr. Derrick.”

He really shouldn’t have brought up the word feelings.

As soon as Dennis mentioned it, Dan’s teeth ground together in fury. “You think she looked like someone who still had feelings for me that day?”

Was that what feelings looked like?

She had been like some emotionless predator–cold, brutal, completely heartless.

If that woman had even a sliver of affection for him left, she never would’ve beaten him into the hospital.

Dennis heard the rage in Dan’s voice.

He paused, then said, “Ms. Dawson already knows about how you faked your death and disappeared back then.”

Tessa went still.

The moment she heard that, her eyes lit up.

Whoa…

Faked his death?

That’s juicy. Trash man’s got some bold moves.

Dan also fell silent.

The air in the hospital room suddenly grew heavy, the shadows deepening across Dan’s face.

Seething with rage, he picked up the phone and called Derrick again.

Dan was especially furious that Marie refused to believe it had been Derrick who slept with her.

As soon as the call connected, Derrick didn’t even wait for Dan to speak.
