The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

Chapter 791 Old Scores

+8 Pearls

Over the years, Victor had followed Abraham and done plenty of things for the Dawson family.

The reason Ashen Pact was so hard to handle now was because she and Derrick worked together without a single flaw!

Thinking back on it…

Oh, damn!

At first they had always believed Victor was the one cooperating with them.

But in reality—

They had been the ones cooperating with Victor all along.

From the very start, they had mistaken who was leading and who was following.

No wonder Abraham called them stupid. They really were stupid, blindly clawing at Ashen Pact without realizing it.

And the result…

After dinner, Marie and Derrick walked out of the restaurant together, only to run into Dan, who had come looking for her.

The man glared at her with fury.

Truthfully, seeing Dan still made Marie feel guilty inside.

Dan said, “Didn’t you say it had nothing to do with you? Then what the hell are you fighting for? You’d better explain this to me!”

In that moment, Dan was about to explode. He had seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless.

His eyes burned with menace as he stared at Marie.

For a moment, that look actually made her feel rattled…

Maybe this was the difference between having reason on your side and not. Before, she had the upper hand, so her attitude had been stronger.
