Misunderstanding or Excuse?
Marie didn’t finish the sentence, but Ste could more or less piece together what had happened back then.
Her lips twitched.
“So the whole thing was just a
misunderstanding between us and Derrick?”
Marie repeated her point.
Ste didn’t say anything this time.
So much had happened over the years, and things were chaotic back then too.
“He couldn’t have just exined properly?”
Now that she’d put the pieces together, Ste was ready to explode.
“And after all that, he even stopped me from contacting Ss.”
When she first left Falvaria, she and Derrick still had somemunication.

Marie said, “You were in contact with Abraham. If he had gone looking for you, Derrick wouldn’t have been able to focus on dealing with everything.”
<i>Was </i><i>that </i><i>really </i><i>it</i>?
Either way, Ste still didn’t trust Derrick.
In her mind, he was just a heartless bastard, scheming and conniving beyond belief.
Marie added, “And what happened
afterward, you saw it too. While dealing with all those messes, Derrick also had to settle things with Abraham.”
<i>Wait</i><i>, </i><i>what</i><i>? </i>
Ste didn’t know how far Abraham had gotten in resolving his own problems, but
the feud between him and Derrick had been explosive.
As Marie described, Derrick had been hunted across the globe.
“Then why didn’t he just exin it clearly?”
Ste was furious all over again.

Marie said, “Back then, the Tom family had their own issues too… ugh, it’s been too long, it’s hard to exin.”
Exactly–tooplicated now.
The blow Derrick suffered from the Tom family at the time had definitely been. heavy.
“So what does Abraham think of Derrick
now?”
If Abraham believed him,now, then thest few years really might have just been one big misunderstanding.
That only made Ste angrier.
That bastard Derrick couldn’t use his mouth properly? Because of one
misunderstanding, she ended up leaving the Dawson family for all these years.
If she’d never left Falvaria, she wouldn’t have had to deal with all that garbage.
Just thinking about the Reed family made her chest tighten.
Mario said “IT
him ”

Marie said, “He wants me to marry him.”
<i>Wait</i><i>, </i>what<i>? </i>
That came out of nowhere. Ste’s brain short–circuited.
From everything she knew about Marie and Derrick, those two couldn’t be more distant.
And now Abraham actually wanted her to marry him?
“What is going on?”
Ste was stunned.
Sure, fine, clear up the misunderstanding- but marrying Marie off to Derrick? How did that make any sense?
No matter what, Derrick wasn’t the same as
he used to be.
After all these years and all that chaos, Derrick’s temper had gotten worse. He even gave off vibes like he could be abusive.
Marie answered, “He thinks Derrick is a good person.”

At this point, her brain waspletely scrambled by the nonstop “he’s a good person” talk.

How many times were they going to hand him a good–guy card?
Was the idea that Derrick was now somehow
better than Dan?
“So are you… gonna marry him?”
Out of nowhere, Derrick wanted to marry Marie, and Abraham didn’t object. The whole thing feltpletely off.
From Ste’s perspective, nothing about this situation seemed simple.
Marie said, “Marry him? Even if he is a good guy, that doesn’t mean I have to marry him.”
Ste: “…” Yeah, exactly!
Just because he was a good guy, that didn’t mean Marie had to go be his wife.
Still… something about this didn’t sit right. It felt like there was more beneath the surface.

“I’m done talking. I’m going to find Dan and get that document back.”
Marie suddenly blew up again.
What a joke–marrying Derrick out of guilt? In his dreams. Did he think she was that kind of person?
Ste: “Huh?”
“I’m gonna get it back by force.”
<i>The </i><i>file </i><i>Derrick lost</i>?
Seriously, what was the point of getting it back now? If it was going to leak, it probably already had.
But from Marie’s point of view, if Abraham wanted her to marry Derrick, maybe this file was the one thing she could use to settle the score.
So if Derrick kept demanding the document, she was going to go get it back from Dan.

Whether or not he’d used her this time was still unclear–but he had definitely thrown her under the bus in front of Derrick.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
Ste immediately grabbed her. “Wait- don’t go.”
The way that man treated Marie now…
There was a real chance he’d faked his death
back then.
If he had, Ste figured Dan had never truly loved Marie.
A man like that wasn’t worth any more of her time.
Marie: “What?”
“He might not love you.”
Brutal words, but Ste said them anyway- even knowing they might hurt Marie.
Because what Marie needed most right now was to protect herself.
Marie’s mouth twitched. “What are you
