Marie went upstairs and knocked on the door. The door suddenly swung open, accompanied by Iliana’s

angry

voice, “What are you doing again!”

Marie smiled awkwardly, “lliana, it’s me.”

Iliana was taken aback and felt awkward. She pulled Marie into the room and asked, “Marie, why are

you

here? I heard from Sasha that you were back. I didn’t expect you to come here today”

Looking at Iliana’s flushed face, Marie said, “You look good. It seems that Andres took good care of

you.”

Iliana’s face turned even redder, and she helplessly said, “Don’t mention Andres! Just piss me off!”

Marie smiled and replied, “I really have to thank him this time. If it weren’t for him protecting you,

Shirley and

the others wouldn’t know how to bully you.”

Hearing that, Iliana looked melancholy and apologized to Marie, “Marie, it’s my fault. I didn’t manage to

keep

our business and our brand. JCL has been transferred to Shirley’s name, and the clothing I designed

has

been discontinued. Now all the clothes displayed in the store are all designed by Nataly.”

Marie patted Iliana and reassured her, “It’s okay. I’ll take care of it. With such a big studio and such a

popular

brand, even if Olive wants to swallow everything, she’s not afraid of choking. I’ll make her return

everything to

us, just as it was!”

Iliana nodded. From the beginning to the end, she unconditionally and unquestioningly trusted her.

Marie

seemed to be the backbone of all of them. As long as she was there, there were no obstacles she

couldn’t

overcome.

After lingering in the Robert residence for over an hour, Marie returned to Glorious Estate with Dennis.

When she saw the documents placed on the coffee table, it reminded her of the things she had taken

from Asher’s

safe.

She took out the items and handed them to Dennis, saying, “These are what Grandpa repeatedly told

me to

keep before his passing. One is a birth certificate, and the other is a cemetery contract. I haven’t read it

yet.”

Dennis held her hand and said, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here. Open it and take a look.”

Marie opened the documents. The first one was her birth certificate, indicating that she was born in

Las

Vegas Fifth Hospital and the attending doctor was Barth July.

The second was a cemetery purchase contract, the location of Las Vegas Cemetery was clearly stated,

and

the final signature was Asher’s.

Stunned, Marie asked, “The first one is my birth certificate. I get it now. But what is this second contract

for the cemetery? Grandpa’s cemetery is not here. Why did Grandpa buy this plot of land?”

Dennis asked, “What did Asher say to you before he died?”

Marie thought for a moment, she lowered her head and said, “Grandpa said that my mother is a good

mother… and he also said that we should get along well…”

Dennis looked at Marie and said, ‘Based on the purchase date, as far as I know, only one person in

the

Spence family passed away around that time

Marie paused for a moment, her eyes reddened She asked, ‘Is this my mother’s cemetery?”

Dennis nodded and said, “I think so. Asher bought a piece of land in his name to bury your mother.

The

Spence family probably doesn’t even know about it.

With red teary eyes, Marie said, “That means.. my mother isn’t missing, right? She has a grave and a

tombstone, it’s just that all these years, no one has ever gone to pay respects to her, is that true?”

Dennis embraced her and comforted, “Marie, don’t think too much. When these things are all resolved,

Til

accompany you back to Las Vegas and we’ll find out.”

Marie nodded After Dennis calmed her down, Marie went back to her room to sleep. She had learned

about

her mother’s burial site, it seemed that there was a bigger mystery That night was destined to be

restless.

Dennis gave Marie’s birth certificate to Cullen With the hospital where she was born and even the

doctor who NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

delivered her, Cullen should be able to quickly find out what happened back then. At least he could find

out

what happened to Luisa during the delivery that led to her subsequent mental instability

In France, Dennis asked Clayton to investigate Aubree’s past. Her excessive interest in Marie was too

obvious. Although Aubree had provided her with the best resources so far, Dennis was still uneasy.

Why

would an unrelated person recognize her as a goddaughter?

As for Marie, she had important matters to attend to with Luca today!

It was rare for Darwin to take the initiative to go hiking with Sabrina that day, and Marie conveniently

waited

at their destination.

In order to get cozy with Darwin, Sabrina didn’t bring any bodyguards or assistants, which made things

much

easier for Marie.

Luca knocked Sabrina unconscious and threw her into the van. Darwin greeted, ‘Ms. Spence, you’re

back.”

Marie nodded. “You go back. You don’t need to show up for this kind of thing.”

“Okay.” Darwin glanced disdainfully at the van and remarked, “Settle it quickly. I’ll feel uncomfortable

just

being around her for another day.”

“Don’t worry It’ll be over soon,” Marie replied.

After seeing off Darwin, Marie and Luca drove the van and dumped Sabrina at an abandoned

warehouse. They splashed cold water on her and she woke up.

Seeing Marie, Sabrina’s eyes displayed some fear. But then she remembered Now that we held

Sasha’s leverage in our hands, so what was there to be afraid of?

Throwing her phone into Sabrina’s arms, Marie said, “I don’t feel like wasting my time talking to you.

Call Olive and make her come out to find you.”

Sabrina laughed and said, “Do you think I’m stupid, Marie? At this point, how could I possibly help you

deal

with Olive?”

Get Boos

“You’re wrong. I’m not asking you to help me deal with her. I’m threatening you. Perhaps my methods

are too

gentle.”

Marie gave a signal to Luca, and the latter called over a few tall and strong men.

With a smile, Marie said, “Sabrina, you only have two choices. One, call Olive and trick her into coming

out.

Two, I’ll have these guys entertain you well. Darwin will soon know how disgusting you are, but you

probably don’t mind. After all, you were a hostess before your debut, and just whitewashing it. I can still

dig up those

photos.

Sabrina’s expression changed. It was true that she had worked as a hostess before her debut and had

accompanied some clients, but the management agency had already taken care of those matters. She

didn’t expect Marie to still be able to dig them up.

“Don’t you dare!” Sabrina glared at Marie with her eyes wide open. “I’m a popular star. How dare you

find someone to harm me? Aren’t you afraid I’ll sue you?”

Marie smiled, “What do I have to fear? You’ve taken away everything from my company. I have nothing

now and I have nothing to lose. I’m not afraid of anything. Even if I end up in jail, I’ll ruin your

reputation!”

“You like Darwin, don’t you? Once the videos of you with these bodyguards are released, even if you

hold Sasha’s leverage, Darwin will find you disgusting!” she continued threatening.

Sabrina was so scared that she didn’t dare to speak. It was indeed the situation now. They had

practically taken away everything from Marie. It was normal for her to bring them down with her, but

Sabrina didn’t want

that!

She was filled with thoughts of Darwin. She was beautiful and gentle, and she was devoted to him. As

time passed, he would definitely like her!

“Sabrina, in fact, we don’t have any deep hatred between us. You just like Darwin, that’s your business.

As long as you trick Olive out so that we can settle our personal grudges, what you do after that is none

of my

concern, and I don’t want to get involved,” Marle coaxed persuasively.

Sabrina looked at the tall and imposing men standing in front of her and her heart wavered. She and

Olive

were just merely using each other. There was no need for her to sacrifice her own reputation for Olive.

Sabrina nodded and asked, “Will you let me go after I helped you trick Olive out?”

“Of course,” said Marie.

Sabrina picked up her phone and called Olive. “Olive, you asked me last time to keep an eye on

Sasha’s movements for you. I’ve found some juicy information. Can you come over now?”

“No, don’t go to the condominium. Darwin and I are at the mansion in the suburbs. There are no

paparazzi constantly watching here all day long. Come to this place instead.”

“Well, okay, we’ll talk about it later.”

Sabrina hung up the phone and sent the location of the so-called suburban mansion to Marie, saying,

“Olive

will be there in half an hour.”

Marie gave the address along with Sabrina’s phone to Luca and asked him to take someone to deal

with it.
