Chapter 772 Don’t Look At Dan

“Derrick!” Dan roared.

“From now on, anything about Tessa, you go to Victor and Abraham,” Derrick said, repeating exactly what Marie had told him before hanging up the call.

The abrupt click on the line snapped the last taut string in Dan’s head; it broke with a sharp

twang.

Not their responsibility. Losses.

Those two phrases kept pounding against his mind, driving his reason into chaos.

On Derrick and Marie’s side-

Derrick’s strong hands pressed against the armrests of the single sofa, caging Marie inside his

arms.

His overwhelming presence surrounded her, and Marie instinctively tried to retreat.

“What are you doing?”

“Reluctant now?” Derrick asked.

“As if!”

Hadn’t she just told Victor on the phone? Whenever Victor needed her cooperation, she’d give it; and Victor had said to keep raiding. So of course, she had to keep raiding! Derrick thought.

“You’re sure you want to keep going?” Derrick asked.

“Of course. What else am I supposed to do? My brother gave the order!”

The moment things turned into a conflict, she had no choice but to side with her own.

As for Dan…

After that incident back then, she had cut him completely out of the circle of those she considered her own.

Derrick let out a low laugh. “You’re really sure?”

“I’m sure! I have to follow my brother!”

“Look, this spot…”

Marie pulled out a map and pointed to a place she had circled.

The moment Derrick saw it, his expression tightened. “As much as I hate to admit it, you really

are a ruthless woman.”

If that place was targeted, then Ashen Pact-

The destruction this time would be catastrophic; getting back on their feet would be nearly impossible.

“Then that’s the place,” Marie said firmly, without the faintest trace of hesitation.

From the steel in her gaze, Derrick understood, this was a woman who could not be betrayed.

Anyone who did… would

pay with ruin.

He cupped the back of her head and kissed her.

After this stretch of time together, he had grown more and more used to doing that–especially drawn to her taste….

They had grown up side by side, and never once had he thought Marie had anything womanly about her.

But now…

Now he realized her taste was intoxicating.

Marie, however, wasn’t enjoying it. “Stop.”

“Hm?”

“I’m gonna throw up, let go!”

The moment she said gonna throw up, Derrick’s face darkened. “You disgusted by me?”

“Ugh, no! Just move, I really can’t hold it…”

Marie shoved him hard, bolting toward the bathroom with her hand clamped over her mouth.

Derrick frowned.

When the sound of violent retching echoed from the bathroom, his jaw tightened. Abraham really harmed his own sister this time. Once we get back to Falvaria, I’ll have to settle that score no matter what.

He pulled out his phone and called Sebastian. The line picked up quickly. “Bro.”

“Find a psychiatrist.”

“Huh?”

A psychiatrist? Wait–what?

“You’ve

got issues? Doesn’t make sense. You’ve been crazy for years already! What’s a little more? Why bother with a doctor?”

Derrick wanted to sew Sebastian’s mouth shut.

More and more, he felt Sebastian needed to spend time with Yan Li–let him cure that damned mouth of his.

“It’s your sister–in–law!”

“What’s wrong with her?”

“This whole mess has her under too much pressure. I think she needs to see someone,” Derrick said.

Marie? A psychiatrist? In Sebastian’s mind, Marie’s inner strength was practically unmatched.

“Why would she need one? I doubt it’s that serious.”

“She just puked her guts out! You tell me—is that serious or not?”

Sebastian’s breath hitched. “That’s pretty serious. Yeah, she should see a doctor.”

If her stress was bad enough to make her throw up, then Marie’s burden must be enormous.

Thinking that, even Sebastian had to admit—she probably needed a psychiatrist.

“Alright, don’t worry. I’ll find the best one.”

Derrick grunted in acknowledgment and hung up.

Marie had vomited until it was bile.

He handed her a bottle of water. “By rights, now that we know Tessa’s with your brother, what’s there to stress over? Or is it you can’t bear to go after Dan?”

The moment he said Dan’s name, his tone turned icy.

Marie, fuming, snatched the bottle and smacked him with it. “What kind of crap are you talking?”

Can’t bear to go after Dan? How could he even say that!

“Then what’s got you so stressed?” Derrick asked. “What’s got you throwing up like this?”
