Chapter 982 The Calculated Collapse
Especially on Marie’s side, she was guarding against Reese like a hawk.

Currently, she had issued a direct order, essentially trapping Reese in Hamlin.

Even if there were demons and ghosts, the wedding tomorrow wouldn’t have

She figured that since it had alarmed her brother, Abel would definitely handle the matter with extra
caution.
Just as she finished speaking, Marie’s phone buzzed.
It was Mona calling.
“Give me money. I need some money right now.” Mona made an effort to be pleasant to Marie.
Reese urgently needed funds.
But Derrick had said Marie was managing all the money.
Mona felt embarrassed having to ask Marie for money, but she had no choice.
Marie: “Money? Until we completely clarify your relationship with Reese, we probably won’t give you a single cent.”

Mona: “…”
The line went completely silent.
Marie: “I think Dad feels the same way.”
The word “Dad,” used at this moment, was pure mockery.
Previously, every time Marie called him “Dad,” Mona would absolutely explode.
Now, it was even worse.
Holt’s meaning… of course, it would be Holt’s meaning.
“Marie, you are truly calculating! Don’t you realize what your brother did to the Tom family

back then?”
Mona thought of the Tom family’s former glory.

Yet, all of that had eventually been crushed into history by Abraham, all because of what Kelly did to Stella.
But what was the result…?
Stella was perfectly fine in Rivermount, while the crippled Kelly went to prison.
And the Tom family had become stuck in limbo, unable to rise or fall.
“The Tom family has already been reduced to this state, and yet you still refuse to let us go? Why are you so intent on going against the Tom family?” Mona shrieked hysterically.
She remembered how great the Tom family used to be. Kelly marrying Abraham was supposed to be a powerful alliance.
Instead? The Tom family failed outright, while the Dawson family, which should have sunk, was single–handedly propped up by Abraham.
Now, the Dawson family was the overlord of the entire Falvaria.
And Marie was still attacking the Tom family over such trivial things.
Marie: “No, you’re wrong. We aren’t going against the Tom family. We are only going against Kelly, and against you.”
Mona: “…”
Marie: “As for the Tom family, everything my brother stripped from it was given to me. That all belongs to me and Derrick now.”
“So Mona, you can calculate all you want, but the entire Tom family still belongs to Derrick. You won’t get anything out of it.”
Mona: “You, you…”
Derrick’s? The Tom family still belonged to Derrick?
Hearing Marie’s words, Mona’s face on the other end of the line instantly sank.
It was Derrick’s.
It was all Derrick’s.

Everything Abraham had extracted from the Tom family back then, everything that had utterly crushed the Tom family–now it all belonged to Derrick?
She had gone to such lengths to make Derrick’s life difficult in that family.
In the end, all because she wanted Kelly to marry Abraham and had slightly inconvenienced Stella, it had turned into this?
“Is this all part of your conspiracy? Are you all helping Derrick, aren’t you?”
In an instant, Mona on the phone completely broke down.
It had to be this way, right? She suddenly remembered that old man had liked Derrick very much.
And Derrick and Abraham had always had a good relationship.
Three years ago, she had wondered how Abraham could possibly try to kill the Tom family!
