Edward sighed and said, “Ms. Spence, stop it. Let’s avoid any unnecessary casualties…” 

Marie helped Edward up and comforted him, “Don’t worry, Edward. Luca knows what to do.” 

Edward lowered his head silently. Listening to the screams outside, he felt that Luca didn’t know what to do. 

Marie checked the wound on Edward’s head and said, “No broken skin, just a bruise. I’ll ask Luca to apply 

some medicine for you later. Edward, you’re old. Don’t fight them head-on. It’s no good.” 

Edward sighed and pointed to the safety deposit box, saying, “This was left to you by Old Mr. Spence before 

he died. They can take everything else, but I can’t let them take this away.” 

Marie knew that Edward was loyal to Asher and good to her. Now that Asher was gone, Edward probably had no position in the Spence family anymore. 

The screams outside finally stopped, and Luca walked in. Edward asked nervously, “Luca, you didn’t hurt 

them seriously, did you?” 

Luca waved his hand and said, “No, no. Don’t worry, Edward. It’s just that they can’t get out of bed for half a month. It’s okay.” 

Edward was at a loss for words. 

Luca looked at Marie curiously and asked, “You called me in a hurry and asked me to keep an eye on the 

safety deposit box. Is this what it is?” 

Marie nodded. “Yes, that’s it.” 

Squatting down to check the safe, Marie asked, “Edward, do you know the password?” 

Edward nodded. ‘I know. Ms. Spence’s birthday is the password.” 

Marie nose stung, and tears almost fell from her eyes. She keyed in the password quickly. With a click, the safety deposit box’s lock was opened, and she flipped through it. There was only her birth certificate and a 

graveyard purchase contract inside, nothing else. 

Marie took out the things and put them away. “Edward, the Spence mansion is not safe now. Why don’t you 

stay somewhere else with me?” 

Edward shook his head. “No, I won’t. Ms. Spence, I’ve been living with Old Mr. Spence all my life. I don’t have any children. Where should I go? I’ll go back to Las Vegas in a few days and live in the Estate.” 

Marie nose was sore as she said, “Edward, I’ll arrange a place for you. You don’t have to go back to Las Vegas alone…” 

“There’s really no need for that, Ms. Spence. I wanted to go back and help Old Mr. Spence to look after the Estate, Edward said with a smile. 

Unable to persuade him, Marie could only nod and send Edward back after Edward packed his things. 

Luca escorted Marie out of the door. As soon as they went out, they met Olive. Olive was smug and didn’t

care about Marie at all. As soon as she saw Marie, she immediately smiled and said, “Oh, is the illegitimate 

child back?” 

With a sneer, Marie said, “Olive, we all know very well whether I’m an illegitimate child or not. You worked so hard to kick me out of the Spence family, didn’t you?” 

Olive was not angry and said, “You’ve met Sasha, right? Sasha and Iliana are very sensible! As soon as my press conference opens in two days, Maris Entertainment will officially be merged into Olive Entertainment, 

and everything you have is mine! Marie, I’ve won the battle.” 

The mention of Sasha and Iliana ignited a flame of anger within Marie. She vowed to address each and every grievance they had endured, dealing with Olive and her accomplices one by one. 

Marie ignored her and left the mansion. Olive didn’t care. Anyway, it wouldn’t be long before Marie got out of 

here. 

Just as Marie walked out of the door, she saw a low-key Audi parked in the corner outside. She recognized this car, probably the cheapest one in Dennis’ garage. She walked over and opened the car door, got into the back seat, and saw Dennis. She narrowed her eyes, smiled and asked, “Why are you here?” 

Dennis was a little unhappy and said, “Didn’t we agree on this yesterday? I was going to accompany you back in a couple of days to resolve the situation. Now you’ve come back on your own. What if you got injured?” 

Marie stuck out her tongue and said, “I won’t get hurt. Luca is here!” 

Dennis raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “So, you trust Luca more?” 

Marie immediately hugged Dennis and said, “No! Definitely not! Of course, I trust my Den-Den the most!” 

Dennis nodded with a sense of contentment. Meanwhile, Cullen, sitting in the driver’s seat, couldn’t help but tremble. He marveled, Ms. Spence is truly a genius! Just with few words, she can coax Mr. Whitney! 

But it was really sweet. No wonder Gavin refused to have a meal with Dennis recently. It was said that he was 

enough of their excessive displays of affection. 

Cullen drove the two back to Glorious Estate. As soon as they entered, Marie habitually helped Dennis to take off his jacket. Dennis was injured before, making it quite inconvenient for him to move his shoulder. Marie. had always been assisting him, and she had grown accustomed to it. 

Dennis looked at the woman in front of him, carefully helped him take off his jacket, hang it up, and took out his slippers, He said with a smile, “It seems that you will be a very virtuous wife in the future?” 

Stunned, Marie looked at the slippers in her hand and blushed. With a snap, she threw the slippers on the floor and said, “Your wound is healed! You can wear it yourself!” 

Dennis was speechless. 

Why did I say that? Dennis lamented inwardly, filled with regret. If only I hadn’t spoken up, I could have savored a few more days of such devoted service! 

Cullen silently praised Marie in his heart, it’s awesome. You’re good at coaxing your husband! You’re submissive when it comes to coaxing, and full of momentum when it’s time to be fierce. Awesome!

Back in the living room, Marie asked, “Did anything go wrong when you went back to the company today?” 

Before Dennis could speak, Cullen was amused. With a gossipy look on his face, he came over and said, “Ms. Spence, you don’t know that the scene today can make me laugh for a year!” 

Marie became interested and even poured a glass of water for Cullen. She asked, “What happened? What’s
