Chapter 773 Don’t Call Her Lady
+3 Pearls
Damn it! Marie couldn’t deny it... the moment she got nervous, she really did want to throw up. These past
weeks had practically driven her insane.
She twisted open the bottle cap and rinsed her mouth with water.
“Stop saying crap like that.”
Every tDerrick tested her feelings for Dan, Marie took it as a reminder of how foolish she had once been.
Looking back now, what else could it have been but stupidity-her feelings for Dan back then?
So unbelievably stupid... beyond belief.
Derrick gave a mocking laugh. “So, shall | move?”
“Do it! My brother probably didn’t tellbefore because he was worried we'd be soft about it and drag Victor
down.”
Which meant they had to be even more ruthless now.
Let Abraham see clearly-his sister was nothing like him, pining away in love!
Though at least his love had been for little Stella; if it had been sother woman, it would've been a
nightmare.
At Marie’s word, Derrick immediately set his sights on Ashen Pact’s most critical resource stronghold; he even
sent the largest force there.
When Victor learned what was happening, he followed closely behind.
The winds over Ashen Pact turned black, thick with storm clouds.
Ashen Pact itself was shaking to its core!
Every day brought new losses; every teyes opened in the morning, Ashen Pact had lost something else.
When Dale heard the news, he completely lost control.

Trevor lowered his head, face grave.

Clearly, the situation was spiraling out of control, and there was nothing more they could say.
“They still haven't found her?” Dale demanded.
They were Manny and Dan.
Those brothers had been at each other's throats for years; their enmity so deep no one had ever dared hope
they might one day work together.
And yet now...
Trevor shook his head heavily. “They haven't.”
Dale's face went black.
They hadn't. They still hadn't found her! That was disastrous news for Ashen Pact.
Tessa might only be their pretext, but in their eyes, if they could just find her and hand her over, at least it would
take the edge off.
But now...
“Who the heck took her?” Dale fumed.
“That's what makes it worse,” Trevor answered. “Not knowing who took her-that’s the most infuriating part!”
That news was maddening.
Artemis stepped into the study just in tto catch Trevor's words. He had actually addressed that wretched
woman's daughter with respect.
Her expression darkened. “Trevor, maybe your memory isn’t so good.”
“Madam?” Trevor blinked, not immediately catching her meaning.
Artemis gave a cold snort. “She isn’t one of ours. She’s brought nothing but disaster to the Morris family. How
could she ever be counted as part of us?”
Her face was stormy.
Her sudden harsh tone made both Dale and Trevor pause.
After all, Artemis had always been gentle, soft-spoken; polite to everyone.
When had she ever sounded like this? Dale stared at her, almost as if seeing this side of her for the first time.

He had no idea-Artemis was truly furious.

The past days, resources she held,
and those of her so ay! daughter,
[
hadgall allen this chaos and plunder.
Sweren't completely seized yet, but the disruption alone had caused devastating losses.
The fire inside her had reached its breaking point.
So now, what good temper could she possibly show Dale?
“Artemis...”
“Am | wrong? All this destruction in Ashen Pact was brought by her. So no, I'll never accept Tessa!”
She had never been willing to accept Dale's child with another woman.
In the past, she had still shown Dan courtesy, even magnanimity.
But now, with this chance, she didn’t even bother pretending when it cto Tessa.
Dale drew a heavy breath, but said nothing.

“Right now, we need to find Tessa first,” Dale said.
“Yes, madam, first we have to find Ms...” Trevor cut himself short under Artemis’s sharp, dark
stare.
He quickly corrected himself, voice stiff. “Find Ms. Miller.”
Ms. Miller. Artemis gave a cold snort and said nothing more,
“Of course, she must be found as soon as possible,” Dale added.
