True Fated Marriage (Grace and Heinz) novel Chapter 186

Marry Smith's body stiffened. From Simon Brown's arms, she turned to look at Alice Smith and said emotionally, "That was so many years ago. What did I do?"

"Ha," Alice said coldly. "What did you do? Do you dare to swear over the things you have done?"

Alice felt that Marry still cared about Sunny Group and Simon the most. So, she would show her true colours if she was asked to swear on those.

"Why should I swear?" Marry's voice was piercing. "Alice, I know you hate me and feel like things are unfair, but you can't make things up."

"Am I making things up?" Alice sneered. She impaled Marry with her glare. "I have always wanted to clarify this matter. Well, today, in front of everyone, in front of Grandma's flower field, let's clarify this matter once and for all!"

Marry's face fell. "What are you talking about? Can you speak politely? Today is Grandma's death anniversary. Do you all know the reason why you're here for?"

Alice smiled lightly and said sarcastically, "Don't pressure us with Grandma. It's precisely because we are in front of Grandma that you have to be transparent and explain everything clearly."

Marry shook for a second and she almost lost her balance.

Alice glared at her and asked, "Six years ago, you played tricks on Simon and Sister Grace. Do you dare to swear that you didn't? If you didn't done it, you may swear on it with your happiness with Simon."

In front of Marry, Alice was triggered and emotional.

"I didn't do it," Marry said firmly. "Why should I listen to you? Swear? Does swearing help?"

"You are just scared." Alice looked at Simon. "Simon, did you see that? Why were you with her that night? She does not dare to admit it because she played tricks on you and my sister. Otherwise, why would you be sleeping in her tent?"

Simon was stunned and his whole body exuded a sense of anger.

He looked at Marry and withdrew his hand from her waist.

Marry noticed the change in Simon, and a trace of panic flashed across her eyes. She looked at Simon with her trembling long eyelashes and began to tear up.

When in situations like these, Marry would show extreme weakness, so as to look delicate and pitiful.

Seeing her like this, a man would subconsciously want to hug her into his arms. Even a woman would feel pity for her.

"Marry." Alice's expression was more acute. "Are you pretending to be weak? For sympathy?"

"Alice," Marry looked at her and said. "Why are you deliberately sowing discord between us?"

Alice snorted and said, "Am I trying to sow discord? I drank only one glass of wine that night and it was from you. You gave Sister Grace and I a glass of wine each, then I..."

A look flashed across Alice's eyes. She glared at Marry coldly and did not continue her words.

Grace Smith suddenly came to her senses. She could not believe what Alice had said.

"Alice, did you drink that night?"

Alice looked at Grace with a sad and anxious look. She said, "Yes, sister, I drank. I was extremely miserable because of her. I thought I had low tolerance of alcohol. However, I've tested myself afterwards. Even after drinking a bottle of wine, I was still sober. Therefore, how could I get drunk that night after drinking only one glass of wine?"

Suddenly, Grace's heart was in her mouth. She looked at Alice in astonishment.

"I did give you a glass of wine, but I drank too," Marry said in a low voice. "We all had too much to drink, then Simon and I—"

Alice interrupted Marry with grief and indignation. "So the wine you gave us three were drugged. Then, Simon and you slept in the same tent and Sister Grace got pregnant with Little Gary. So seamless was your trick.
