The seturord Heiress Who Never Fit In
Chapter 774 You’re The Crazy One
+ Pearld
What kind of mess was <i>this</i>? Something that had nothing to do with Ashen Pact in the first ce, and now they were being told to hand someone over. If they couldn’t, the matter wouldn’t end…
Dale waved his hand. “Go search first.”
Trevor nodded. “Yes.”
He left.
Only Dale and Artemis remained. She drew in a deep breath. “Duff, you don’t think I’m being heartless, do you?”
Dale froze at her words, then shook his head. “Of course not.”
Artemis sighed. “You know me; I don’t care about anything. But this time, because of that mother and daughter, you’ve suffered such heavy losses–it makes me angry.”
“I know.”
Dale gave a perfunctory nod.
Right now, he had no energy left to respond to Artemis; all his focus was on finding Tessa.
Sebastian moved quickly. The moment Derrick said Marie needed a psychiatrist, he had practically gone out and found one of the world’s best.
When Marie found out a psychiatrist had arrived, she nced at Derrick, her lips twitching. “Seriously? You’re the one who needs your head examined.”
“Not my head–your heart.”
Derrick’s face was deadly serious.
<i>Was </i><i>there </i><i>even </i><i>a </i><i>difference</i>? Either way, it was some kind of nervous system disorder.
<i>“</i>Come on,” Sebastian urged. “Let the doctor check you. You can’t just keep puking like this.”
“Check what? I’m not sick!”
A damn psychiatrist, really? Derrick must have a death wish.
“Most people with mental issues always im they’re not sick,” Derrick said.
The air went still.

Marie crossed her arms and red at him, danger radiating from her whole body.
“You just called me crazy?”
Her voice had turned icy.

Sebastian’s heart jumped hard. <i>No </i><i>way</i><i>–</i><i>the </i><i>princess </i><i>is </i><i>angry </i><i>again</i>.
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t fight. Marie, my brother was just—”
Before he could finish, Marie shot him a look.
That re was lethal.
Sebastian swallowed hard. “I’ll shut up. I’m out of here!”
He had wanted to say Derrick was only thinking of her, but with Marie’s expression like that, he didn’t dare.
Sebastian bolted.
Marie turned back to Derrick, hands on her hips as she strode toward him. “Are you out of your damn mind?<b>” </b>
She’d only thrown up once.
And this bastard went and called in a psychiatrist? Shouldn’t it have been a gastroenterologist?
For the first time, Marie thought Derrick wasn’t just a fool—he was an extraordinary fool.
How <i>could </i><i>anyone </i><i>in </i><i>the </i>world <i>be </i><i>such </i><i>an </i>idiot? <i>Unbelievable</i>!
Before she could say more, Derrick yanked her into his arms.
“Ah!” Marie gasped.
The next moment, his mouth covered her soft lips, swallowing down all the angry words she had lined up.
She instinctively tried to fight him off.
But when she became a woman before him, Derrick became very much a man.
Marie struggled again, but he easily pinned her wrists.
Both of them had long been starved of affection; that emptiness was like dry tinder. And now, their bodies sparking against each other, the emptiness ignited into a raging fire.

Five minutester…
Both of their breathing had grown uneven.
:
Derrick lifted her into his arms with case, as though she weighed nothing at all.

That was when he noticed–Marie had grown so thin. Compared to that night, she was light as air. When did <i>people </i><i>waste </i><i>away </i><i>like </i><i>this</i><i>? </i>
When their bodies were worn down, and their minds exhausted.
“And you still say you don’t need a psychiatrist? Look at you–you’re skin and bones.”
His face was stern, his tone grave.
Dragged from the haze of passion, Marie snapped back to herself at those words.
She bit down hard on his solid chest.
Derrick caught the back of her neck. “Marie, are you part dog?”
She was furious.
She bit him again, harder this time. “Who the heck says being skinny means you need a psychiatrist? If that’s the case, wouldn’t everyone on a diet belong in an asylum?”
Psychiatrist this, psychiatrist that—
Marie felt like Derrick’s twisted logic was enough to drive her insane.
What kind of <i>logic </i><i>was </i><i>this</i><i>? </i>
“Alright, alright, I won’t say another word, okay?” Derrick relented.
“Hmph!”
Marie turned her head away in a huff.
But then Derrick pressed on. “Just let the doctor take a look, alright?”
“Hey! I said-”
“Just one look!”
<i>Damn </i><i>it</i><i>! </i><i>I </i><i>really </i><i>want </i>to <i>hit </i><i>him</i><i>… </i>But she couldn’t beat Derrick, not even close.
Still, she was furious–what was she supposed to do?

In the end, after all his coaxing and pressing, Marie agreed to let the psychiatrist examine her.
She finally realized—if she didn’t, Derrick would never let it go.
And once she relented, Derrick was satisfied.
