The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In novel Chapter 932

Chapter 932 You Should Ask Her

Rianne: “…”

Finished

At the words “Marie said it,” Evie had a sudden flash of insight. She looked at Eddie. “You really never said it?”

Eddie: “I… have not!”

“Then you…”

The rest of the question-“do you like her or not“-got stuck. Her brain froze.

She suddenly realized a possibility: Marie was messing with her.

She looked at Eddie, then at Rianne, then silently picked up her phone, turned, and left the

room.

Eddie and Rianne looked at each other.

Rianne’s face was a little red. “Um, I… I…..”

Eddie cut her off. “It’s fine. Stella asked us to protect you. Don’t overthink it. She has no filter.”

Hearing him say that, Rianne visibly relaxed. And seeing her relax, the tension in Eddie’s own chest eased a bit.

At the Tom family home!

When Evie called, the entire Tom family home was in total chaos.

The reason: Marie had just gone to her room and found a dead snake on her bed.

It was bloody and horrifying.

Needless to say, this was either Gary’s doing or Mona’s. And the “why” was obvious: it was about control of the household.

Mona had been trying to trip her up for days, either by “forgetting” to arrange breakfast or messing with the staff’s uniform schedules. Marie hadn’t taken the bait on any of it.

So, they had resorted to extreme measures…

And if they went extreme, Marie went more extreme. She picked up the dead snake and

wrapped it around Mona’s neck.

Mona shrieked in terror: “Ah! Ah! Ah-!”

The peace of the Tom family home was shattered.

Gary saw this, rushed to help, and frantically pulled the snake off Mona’s neck, throwing it on the floor.

Snakes, being what they are, are creepy. Even dead, it was enough to cause terror.

Mona was scared out of her wits, collapsing on the floor, trembling. “Marie, you… you… you… you’ve gone too far!”

Terrified, Mona’s teeth were chattering.

Gary also glared at Marie. “Marie, you’re a lunatic!”

“Am I? If I weren’t, wouldn’t I be bullied to death by you?”

Marie nonchalantly sipped her water.

Just moments ago, she had personally wrapped that snake around Mona’s neck…

Mona had wanted to use this to scare her out of the house.

Well, they’d just see who was more scared…

Mona had clearly not expected that Marie wasn’t afraid of snakes. That was a venomous snake.

Her chest was still heaving. “Nobody is bullying you! You… stop talking nonsense! What, did this snake just die and crawl onto my bed by itself?”

Its vital point had been cut. Someone had obviously done this on purpose.

Hearing that, a flash of guilt crossed Mona’s eyes. But on the surface, she wouldn’t admit it.

Holt, woken by the noise, came downstairs and saw the bloody dead snake in the living room.

His face darkened. “What are you fighting about now?”

His tone was clearly displeased.

Especially the “again“… it was obvious who he was referring to.

If it weren’t for the Tom family’s eldest grandson in Marie’s belly, he wouldn’t want to deal with

her at all.

It went without saying what losses the Tom family had suffered because of the Dawson family. The two families had been fine, and it had turned into this.

Now Maric had married Derrick, the Dawson family hadn’t brought any benefit, and the Tom family home was in constant chaos.

Seeing Holt, Mona started wailing, “Holt, you have to stand up for me! I’m Derrick’s stepmother, but I haven’t done anything to him all these years. You’ve seen my contributions to this family. But… but look at how they treat me! From the moment Marie stepped into this house, she hasn’t given me a shred of respect. Even if I have no great merits, I’ve worked hard! How can they treat me like this? Why? Look at what she did…”

She pointed at the dead snake, her face still pale with fear.

Her finger was trembling.

Holt looked at the snake, then turned a serious gaze on Marie. “Marie, what is this?”

Holt’s expression was grim, his tone even worse.

Mona was sobbing hysterically, as if she’d suffered a grave injustice.

Holt almost instinctively sided with her.

But Marie, facing Holt, exploded. “You’re asking me? You should be asking her!”

She yelled without any politeness.

This disrespectful younger generation… dealing with her was just a nightmare.
