Chapter 537 Not the Marriage Type
Ste instinctively leaned closer to Abraham, even reaching out to tug Marie along with her.
Apparently, even in fear, she wasn’t forgetting to grab Marie to safety.
Derrick was ring daggers at Marie and under his gaze. Marie suddenly felt a little… uneasy.

Derrick was ring daggers at Marie, and under his gaze, Marie suddenly felt a little… uneasy.
She rubbed her hands together without thinking. “Can you not look at me like that? You’re seriously creeping me out.”
She hadn’t noticed before, but when Derrick got that man–eating expression on his face, he really <i>was </i>terrifying.
Marie suddenly lost a little of her nerve.
She started to feel like she really couldn’t marry Derrick. Not even to keep him away from
Ste.
There were a hundred ways to keep someone at bay–marriage absolutely didn’t need to be one of them.
Because just looking at this guy, you could tell–he had major domestic violence energy.
<i>Yeah</i><i>, </i><i>the </i><i>way </i>Derrick <i>looked </i><i>right </i><i>now</i>? <i>ssic </i><i>abuser </i><i>vibes</i>.
Seeing Marie back down, Derrick sneered. “So you <i>can </i>get scared? And here I thought you weren’t afraid of anything.”
Ever since he came back to Falvaria, this woman had beening at him nonstop. Even went and beat
up
Dan.
Derrick had truly thought she was fearless.
But that one word-“scared“-rubbed Marie all kinds of wrong. Even if she <i>was </i>nervous inside…
Her fear was instantly buried under a wave of anger.
She stepped out from behind Ste with a scoff. “Don’t tter yourself. You think I’m really scared of <i>you</i><i>?</i>”
“If you’re not scared, then let’s go. Time to get married.”
“Marry you? Keep dreaming.” After everything they’d been through…
Marie was done. No way she was marrying Derrick now.
Derrick snapped, “Not marrying me? What, gonna go marry Dan? Marie, I’m telling you right now–don’t even think about it.”
“That mutt Dan had the balls to hit me in <i>Falvaria</i><i>. </i>He can spend the rest of his life loving you

and never getting you.”
Marie said, “He doesn’t love me anymore.”
So really, this revenge talk made zero sense.
“He’ll love you again once he gets his memory back, right? And I swear to God, we’re not getting divorced. Let that bastard rot from the heartbreak.”
Derrick barked augh. “Memory loss? Only a dumbass like you would believe that crap. Guys like him? Just don’t want to take responsibility.”
“When you’re in love with them, they couldn’t care less. The moment they lose you, theye crawling.”
The three of them stared at Derrick like he was losing his mind.
Because let’s face it–he <i>was</i><i>. </i>
And not just a little bit.
“I’m
gonna make sure he spends his whole life crawling and sobbing. Memory loss? I’ll make him cry so hard he won’t even know <i>where </i>to cry.”
Clearly, Derrick still hadn’t gotten over being jumped by Dan’s men.
He kept ranting, babbling a mile a minute, all of it aimed squarely at Dan…
Ste’s mouth twitched. <i>Derrick </i><i>in </i><i>a </i><i>rage </i><i>is </i><i>seriously </i><i>terrifying</i>.
The man was going off so hard, no one else could even get a word in.
Marie was stunned. “Didn’t you already beat the guy up? Dan’s men said he got messed up pretty bad.”
Dan’s
guys had hit Derrick a couple times at the civil office. But Derrick? He’did into Dan <i>hard</i>.
If anything, they were even now…
“So what if I did? I’d beat him again! I’d kill him if I could!”
<b><i>Yeah</i></b><i>, </i><i>kill </i><i>him</i>.
At this point, he might as well have.

Abraham, who’d been silent the whole time, suddenly shot Derrick a chilling look. “Are you seriously trying to marry Marie right now?”
“What else?”
Abraham narrowed his eyes. “If this marriage is just a ploy to piss off Dan, I suggest you drop it.”
“Don’t forget–you’re gonna divorce eventually. If you’re starting to think otherwise, then don’t even go through with it. Got it?“.
Derrick’s breathing hitched.
His temper, which had just been ring like a bonfire, started to die under Abraham’s cold,
stern tone.
He took a long breath. Then another. Slowly forcing himself to calm down.
Abraham said, “Understand?”
Derrick didn’t answer. He didn’t want to.
He turned to Marie instead, his mind racing with all the crap wrapped around him right now.
After another few steadying breaths, he finally muttered two reluctant words: “Got it.”
Abraham pulled his gaze away.
Then looked at Marie. His look alone sent a chill down her spine.
“You’re really gonna let me marry this lunatic? You see the way he’s acting? He looks like he wants to hit me at any second.”
The more Marie thought about it, the less she wanted to marry Derrick. Judging by how things stood now, it must’ve been some mess Derrick was caught up something that required this marriage to fix.
