Chapter 536 This Marriage Is Happening
“If you ask me, Derrick should’ve beat you up too. Maybe then you’d finally start thinking straight.”
Anyone with a working brain wouldn’t say something so ridiculous.
Seeing Marie suddenly lose her temper, Cynn gritted his teeth even harder. “Our boss forgot

everything about you. Everything he did to hurt you–he didn’t mean it. You can’t just let someone beat him up like that.”
“He should just go back to Frapucu and sit quietly in his little lord’s chair. Stoping out here and making a fool of himself.”
Marie hung up the phone.

To her, Dan was just faking it.
Hiding behind some memory–loss excuse while trying to have it both ways. Disgusting.
Her chest was tight with fury.
Abraham had one hand resting on Ste’s head, holding her close as hezily asked, “Dan got beat up?”
“Yeah. His guy actually said Dan lost his memory, that none of it was on purpose, and that I should be on <i>his </i>side.”
Ugh. <i>Who </i><i>even </i><i>talks </i><i>like </i><i>that</i><i>? </i>
“If you ask me, Derrick was <i>way </i>too soft on him. Should’ve hit him harder–maybe knocked some sense into all of them.”
Anyone with a shred of sense wouldn’t be this confused.
Both Abraham and Ste felt a little more relieved hearing Mariein like that.
Their biggest fear right now was Marie suddenly deciding to go check on Dan. <i>Now </i><i>that </i>would’ve been a nightmare.
Marie was still fuming and about to rant some more when her phone rang again. This time, it was Derrick.
She picked up.
“What?<b>” </b>
She was still steamed about the whole Dan situation–what did Derrick want now?

Or maybe it was because Derrick had taken so much crap from Abraham over the finally snapped. This time, he wasn’t waiting a whole night to act. Just one lunch break, and he’d already gotten payback.

Derrick said, “I’m outside the civil office. Come here.”
“For what?<b>” </b>
Hearing Derrick was at the marriage registration office made Marie’s heart skip a beat.
“To finish getting married.”
<i>Still</i><i>?! </i><i>After </i><i>all </i><i>that</i><i>? </i>
What exactly had Derrick gone through to suddenly insist on marrying her?
And why had he only told her brother and mom? Why hadn’t <i>she </i>been told?
<i>Was </i><i>she </i><i>not </i><i>even </i><i>worth </i><i>a </i><i>heads</i><i>–</i><i>up</i><i>? </i>

“Marie, I’m telling you right now: this wedding is happening. I don’t care if you want it or not.
Derrick snapped.
He was pissed.
Ste got snatched by Abraham. Now Derrick had his own mess to deal with, and he’d even gotten beat up–all he’d asked was for Marie to y along.
Dan, that psycho–if Derrick didn’t make him pay, then he wasn’t Derrick.
Marie snapped right back. “Excuse me, what?!”
<i>What </i><i>do </i><i>you </i><i>mean </i>I’m <i>marrying </i><i>you </i><i>whether </i>I <i>like </i><i>it </i><i>or </i><i>not</i>?
Sure, she’d used this whole wedding idea to spite Dan, but still–Derrick’s attitude was totally off.
“Is this about needing to get married, or are you just using me to get revenge on Dan?”
What even was this situation?
Derrick growled, “We’re getting married first. I’ming to get you now.”
He hung up.
Marie stared at the phone<b>, </b>stunned. Then she looked at Abraham in the back seat.

“You heard him, didn’t you?”
The call had been on speaker. She <i>knew </i>Abraham and Ste had heard everything.
Before Abraham could say anything, Marie jumped in, “Did you hear the way he talked to me? ‘You’re getting married whether you want to or not. What the hell kind of tone is that?”
They had heard it loud and clear.
And yeah–Derrick’s tone was not gentle. Not even close.
Marie’s head was spinning.
Ste didn’t feel much better either. Everything about this felt like it was spiraling out of control.
Marie muttered, “Oh my God. Is this what a groom is supposed to sound like? Feels more like he’sing to beat me up.
Yeah–Derrick hadn’t sounded like he was proposing. He’d sounded like he was ready to throw hands.
It was actually kind of scary.

Back at the Dawson family estate.
Derrick had already arrived. The look in his eyes when he saw Marie was downright fierce. Like he wanted to rip someone apart.
