Dan’d been hit early that morning, and he still hadn’t cooled off.

Now that Marie had called, his temper flared again. “Hit him! If you don’t hit him, you’re at coward!”

That line made Derrick want to kill him right then.

Marie spat, “You trash!”

Hearing that, Marie flew out of bed and went after Dan, ready to strike him.

Derrick, terrified, stepped forward, “Don’t–don’t move.”

Then he snatched the phone out of Marie’s hand.

Knowing she was pregnant, and that it was Dan’s baby, had made Marie furious!

She cursed Dan constantly; she even wanted to hit him…

“Ancestor, please–calm down, I beg you,” Derrick said.

At that moment Derrick was as humble as could be. There was nothing he could do; his wife was clearly carrying his child, and she didn’t even believe him.

There was nothing harder to deal with than that.

“I’m so angry I could die, so angry,” Marie kept saying.

“Why can’t you just believe me that night-”

“Stop. Don’t say another word!”

Derrick fell silent.

“Do you have some kind of dirt on him?” Marie asked.

Derrick insisted he wasn’t the sort to take the fall for someone else; Marie felt he wasn’t.

At least he wasn’t the sort to shoulder blame for no reason.

She had thought and thought last night; the only reason she could imagine him taking the blame for Dan was if Dan had something on him.

Derrick stayed silent.

Hearing Marie say that, he felt at a loss.

:

“You’re trying to make me have a reason to take the fall for him, aren’t you?”

How could there be people so stubborn–no matter what you said, they wouldn’t listen or believe you.

Marie fell quiet.

“Do you really think if I had dirt on him I’d dare act like this toward Ashen Pact?” Derrick asked.

“Oh!” Marie snapped.

So the idea that Dan had leverage over Derrick didn’t seem very likely.

“Then can you at least believe that it was me that night?” Derrick asked.

Marie didn’t answer.

The words hung in the room; the air in the hospital room went completely still. Marie stared at Derrick in a daze.

Her stunned look made it seem like she was still searching for a reason to pin the blame on Dan.

“It really was me,” Derrick said.

Marie stayed silent.

“And you don’t have time to go and beat up that Dan now,” Derrick added.

“I’m going to kill that dude!” Marie shouted.

To Marie, Dan was every bit the scumbag he deserved to be.

Even if the person that night hadn’t been Dan, she still wanted to beat him; she didn’t need a reason–she’d always been like that.

“That scumbag you want to beat up–you don’t have time for him right now; something’s wrong over in Falvaria, and it’s aimed at your sister,” Derrick said.

“What did you say? Stella? What happened to her? Has she run off again?”

The moment she heard it involved Stella, Marie straightened up.

Derrick fell silent.

Seeing how tense she got over Stella made him feel unsettled. Is Stella really that important to her?

“What’s going on?” Marie demanded.

“It’s Reese… the one who confessed to your brother before.”

“You mean that Reese who confessed to my brother behind Stella’s back? What’s she up to now?” Marie’s face darkened even more when Reese was mentioned.

Her expression was worse than when she’d wanted to beat Dan.

Reese…

Stella had always been good at picking friends–Tessa, Rianne–each of them would do anything for a friend.

But Reese had been a mistake she’d made in college.

Reese had gotten close to her and acted friendly, but it had all been for Abraham.

And Abraham–aside from Stella, who else could he tolerate?

So when Reese confessed to him, he’d kicked her out of Falvaria on the spot.

It wasn’t just that she was barred from Stella’s presence; she was forbidden from staying in

Falvaria at all.

By rights, that little flame should have been snuffed out quickly. So how did it flare up again?

“Your brother said she’s been getting plastic surgery in Hamlin, reshaping her face to match Stella’s,” Derrick said.

Marie fell silent.

No way…

“According to your brother, her face already looks five or six parts like Stella’s,” Derrick

continued.

“Holy–what is this even playing at?” Marie blurted.

She’d seen people with means before, but she’d never seen anything like this; were they trying to replace Stella?

Marie was steaming mad.

“It wouldn’t be surprising; right now they’re plotting against Stella,” Derrick said.

“The day Reese manages to make her face identical to Stella’s—that’s when their plan will be put fully into motion.”

“So–same shell, different inside, and that would be enough to replace her?” Marie asked.
