The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In

She Took 878 Summary

In this chapter, Sebastian finds himself in a frustrating predicament after being left stranded outside a private

airport, unable to get his car in or out. Derrick, who earlier had been taken away by Sebastian and Drax, is now

caught in the middle of tension between Marie and Sebastian. Despite Marie's sharp anger and physical

pinching, Derrick tries to keep the peace, though his words reveal a sense of defeat. When Sebastian calls

Derrick urgently for help, Derrick responds coldly, blaming Sebastian for the situation and showing little

sympathy.

Sebastian is left feeling abandoned and bitter, realizing that Derrick is unsupportive and distant, despite their

brotherly bond. His frustration grows as he contemplates how Derrick had once been protected from Marie's

wrath only to be discarded now. This leaves Sebastian standing alone in the cold, angry and resentful.

Meanwhile, a stranger overhears Sebastian's muttered insult about Marie, adding an element of unexpected

tension.

At the stime, Derrick receives a tense call from Dan, who is still recovering from a recent beating inflicted

by Marie. Dan demands answers and resolution, fearing Marie's continued aggression. Derrick reassures Dan

firmly that Marie will no longer harm him, explaining that Marie now believes the child is Derrick’s, which has

shifted her behavior. As Derrick speaks, he holds Marie's hand tightly, signaling a complex and strained dynamic

between them.

Overall, the chapter highlights the strained relationships and mounting conflicts among Sebastian, Derrick,

Marie, and Dan, with emotions running high and loyalties tested. Derrick’s attempts to mediate and calm the

situation only underscore the underlying tension and unresolved issues among the characters.

Chapter 878: Sebastian's Unluckiest Day Ever

Back then, when Sebastian and Drax had hauled Derrick away, everything had gone surprisingly smoothly—so

much so that even Derrick himself was taken aback. Had it been left solely to his own stubborn will, he would

never have budged; no one could have forced him to leave.

“I swear, | could kill you,” Marie snapped sharply, her voice crackling with frustration.

Derrick let out a tired, almost resigned laugh. “Fine, fine—after the baby’s born, you can murderall you

want.”

At that moment, no matter what Marie said, Derrick did his best to soothe her, trying to keep the peace.

Yet, there was something off about the way he muttered, “do whatever you want.” It didn’t sound genuine—it

sounded defeated.

Marie's anger flared again. Without hesitation, she grabbed his waist and pinched hard, twisting with a sharp,

almost vicious motion.

“Ugh...” Derrick hissed, his face tightening in pain.

Just then, Derrick’s phone buzzed. He caught Marie's slender wrist before she could react.

“Be good,” he said quietly, his tone firm but gentle. “I have to take this call.”

He pried her hand away carefully. “We'll settle this behind closed doors when we get home. There are people

around now.”

He tried to calm her down, coaxing her with soft words.

Meanwhile, the driver up front had already tuned them out completely. No sane person would bother listening to

the couple’s bickering. The divider between the front and back seats had been raised long ago.

Marie was practically simmering with fury.

The call was from Sebastian. Derrick answered curtly, his patience worn thin. “What do you want?”

That brat—just look at the mess he’d caused. Now Derrick couldn't even explain himself to Marie.

Marie was itching to tear into Derrick, and Derrick wanted nothing more than to tear into Sebastian.

But Sebastian didn’t even seem to notice the sharp edge in Derrick’s voice. “Bro, you've got to cback and

get me,” he said urgently.

“Huh?” Derrick frowned, confused.

“My car can’t get in. The private airport has no cars going out either. Cback, quick!”

The sSebastian who had refused to get in the car earlier was suddenly desperate.

Like hell he was going to walk twenty miles on foot.

“Why can’t your car get in?” Derrick asked, eyebrows knitting together.

“I don’t know—did Marie do this on purpose? Ask her if she’s messing with me!” Sebastian blurted out, his voice

rising in frustration.

Hearing that, Derrick just thought, *God, could he be any dumber?*

Was that really something you could just say out loud?

“If your sister-in-law is doing this to you on purpose, then take it. You deserve it,” Derrick said flatly.

On the other end, Sebastian was left speechless.

Seriously?

He'd only gotten tangled up with Marie because of Derrick—and now Derrick was talking like this?

“Anyway, that’s it. Bye,” Derrick said, cutting the call short.

“Hey! That's twenty miles! What am | supposed to do?” Sebastian shouted, disbelief coloring his tone.

This had to be skind of joke. Dozens of miles, and I'm just supposed to... take it?

But before he could say another word, Derrick had already hung up.

Sebastian stood alone on the roadside outside the airport as a cold wind swept over him. The place felt utterly

deserted, and he felt abandoned.

“Damn it. Heartless. And he’s supposed to be my brother,” he muttered bitterly.

If I'd known, | wouldn't have dragged his ungrateful butt out. I'd have let Marie beat him to a pulp.

Sebastian's anger simmered beneath the surface.

In his mind, if Derrick hadn't run that day, Marie would have pummeled him mercilessly.

And now? Classic use-and-dump.

“Are you calling her a shrew?” a middle-aged man’s voice asked from behind him.

Sebastian froze.

No way. Did someone just overhear that?

Derrick had just ended the call with Sebastian when Dan’s phone rang.

On the line, Dan’s voice was tight, practically grinding his teeth. “Where the heck are you and Marie?”

“What?” Derrick’s tone immediately cooled.

“What do you mean, ‘what’? If | don’t get this sorted out with you two today, is that crazy woman going to keep

coming after me?”

Dan was in a car himself, wincing as he spoke; every word seemed to tug painfully at the fresh wounds on his

face. That damned woman—what was going on in her head?

She didn’t listen to a single word like a normal person.

He'd been beaten in Redwood.

For Dan, no matter what, this tthings had to be put straight.

If not, he’d never have a moment of peace again.

“She won't hit you anymore,” Derrick said firmly.

Dan went still. That tone—so certain?

“What's that supposed to mean? Why should | believe you?”

Just because Derrick said so didn’t make it true. Marie lost control like no ordinary person.

Yet here Derrick was, swearing she wouldn't touch him again.

So what had changed?

“She believes the child is mine now,” Derrick said quietly.

As he spoke, Derrick instinctively reached for Marie's hand beside him.

Marie rolled her eyes and tried to pull away, but Derrick’s grip tightened; he refused to let go.
