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.
