Mason had no choice but to take Mia away from there and return to his mansion.

Carly sat in the room crying non-stop. She had already smashed everything she could, leaving the

room in a complete mess.

“Mom, I don’t want to go abroad. Please talk to Grandpa. I’ll behave, I won’t cause any more trouble.

Don’t send me away!” Carly cried non-stop.

Mia comforted, “Carly, studying abroad is pretty good too. I’ll visit you often, don’t worry. After some

time, when your father calms down, I’ll talk to him and bring you back.”

The next day, the housekeeper carried the luggage, followed behind Mia, and took Carly to the airport

to fly to France.

Just stepped out, and ran into Marie. She was wearing a professional-style skirt suit, getting ready to

go to the studio.

Watching Marie’s resolute appearance, Carly suddenly remembered that she had her own

company, and those in-demand rising stars were all her people.

Marie glanced at the two people, didn’t say anything, and prepared to walk by. Luca had already

opened the car door, waiting for her.

Carly suddenly said, “Marie Spence, I will be back!”

Marie looked back at her and laughed. In just two days, Carly had become so haggard that her

declaration of war didn’t have much of a deterrent effect.

“Carly, you were able to study in France because I gave you a way out. Otherwise, you would be in jail

right now, understand your place, got it?” Marie said, looking at her.

Carly gritted her teeth and said, “Marie! You took away my shares, my career, and my life! I will

definitely come back for revenge!”

Marie shook her head helplessly and laughed, “Carly, I’ve told you many times. I’ll take all your things

away. Have you forgotten? Can’t you stand it now?”

“Ah!” Carly screamed. She couldn’t beat Marie. Why couldn’t she beat Marie? Ever since Marie

stopped being foolish, nothing had gone smoothly for her!

Mia hugged Carly and glared at Marie as she warned, “Don’t go too far!”

Marie stopped smiling and walked up to Mia with a cold expression. In a cold voice, she said, “Go too

far? What do you mean by go too far? Compared to my mother’s death back then, is this going too

far?”

Mia’s face stiffened, and she immediately said, “What nonsense are you talking about!”

Marie saw it and waved her hand, “It’s nothing, Ms. Dillon. Take care of your daughter, because I won’t

always give you a way out.”

She turned around and got in the car, while Mia broke out in a cold sweat. Did Marie know

something?

Marie thought about Mia’s appearance just now, and she was sure that Mia was involved in her

mother’s death!

Luca looked at her through the rearview mirror and smiled, “Marie, do you know that you and Rose are

quite similar?”

Marie laughed, “Well, we’re twins, so naturally we look alike.”

“No, it’s not about the appearance…” Luca said, “It’s when you speak, when you’re angry, your tone

and expressions are very similar.”

Marie smiled faintly without saying a word. What could she say? That she was actually Rose?

Luca added, “But it’s not exactly the same, there are still differences.”

“Really? What’s different?” Marie asked.

“Rose was very cold. Perhaps due to the environment we grew up in. Rose had a great relationship

with us, but her gaze was always cold, especially when facing Seth,” Luca recalled and looked at

Marie through the rearview mirror again, then smiled, “But your eyes are warmer, especially when

you look at Mr. Whitney, very gentle.”

Marie was taken aback, as she and Rose were clearly the same person, could their gazes really be

different?

Even in such an environment, she had already changed, hadn’t she?

Along with Dennis’ gaze, everything became gentle, didn’t it?

Remembering the commotion with Dennis in the bedroom this morning, she felt a little guilty pleasure in

her heart.

When Luca dropped Marie off at the company, Sasha and a few others were already waiting for her in

the conference room. With New Year’s approaching, they were going to briefly discuss their plans for

the upcoming year.

Upon seeing Marie enter, both Sasha and Zane greeted her, while Darwin lazily raised his eyes and

said, “Good morning, Ms. Spence.”

Marie really wasn’t used to Darwin’s well-behaved appearance, shivered a bit, and said, “Morning.” Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Marie opened the file and began the meeting, “The current temporary plan is that there isn’t much

work before New Year, just attending a few programs. After the New Year, Zane will release a new

album, followed by a concert. I will arrange a musle-themed variety show for you. Any questions?”

Zane shook his head and said, “No problem.”

Marie turned to Sasha and Darwin, “The annual corporate party will feature a TV series for to

collaborate on. I’m still selecting the movie script, and besides that, there will be a variety show

and interviews.”

Darwin wailed, “Do I have to work with Sasha again?’

Marie looked at him and asked, “Is there a problem? Your collaboration on Against the War received

great feedback. While the popularity hasn’t faded yet, you could make another film together. Don’t

waste the fans’ enthusiasm.”

Darwin lay on the table and said, “But Sasha always bullies me!”

Sasha innocently spread her hands and said, “I didn’t bully you.”

“But you really hit me!” Darwin accused.

Sasha rolled her eyes, “It’s called acting professionalism, you could actually hit me too.”

Darwin was rendered speechless by that.

How could he, a grown man, bring himself to do that?

Marie smiled helplessly and said, “Alright, that’s it. I’ll send you the TV series script later. Do a good job

filming, and if this one succeeds, you’ll be on the A-list.”

Darwin waved his hand, made an OK gesture, and said, “I’ll bring back an award in no time.”

Dereon experienced this incident and completely lost the qualification to stand in the entertainment

industry.

He originally wanted to go home and be a profligate, but who would have thought that he hooked up

with a young model recently? After sleeping with her, he was immediately beaten up by Kevin. How

could he have known that she was Kevin’s girlfriend?

Kevin was also well-known in the circle as a profligate. Originally, he and Kevin minded their own

business, but when this issue came up, he inexplicably offended the Whitney family.

At that moment, Dennis was sitting in the living room of the Hebert residence, his long legs crossed,

hands resting on his knees, tapping rhythmically. He spoke in a low, indifferent tone, “Mr. Hebert, have

you made up your mind?”

Dereon’s father, Simon Hebert, unaware that his good-for-nothing son had offended the Whitney family,

was somewhat afraid and said, “Mr. Whitney, this property development was just about to start, and it’s

the biggest project for Hebert Group this year! I…”

Dennis interrupted him, “I said, either get the land, or the investment from Whitney Group for Hebert

Group cooperation ends today.”

Such a big project was given to Dennis, and the Hebert Group was not far from bankruptcy. Simon

gritted his teeth and said, “Let’s just say that the Hebert Group wasn’t meant to work with the Whitney

Group!”

Dennis gave a faint smile, his gaze cold and indifferent, as he stood up and left the Hebert

residence.

Cullen placed the document in front of Simon and said, “This is the detailed amount of the breach of

contract. Please have the Hebert Group clear it by tomorrow night. Also, your son messed with Mr.

Whitney’s nephew’s girlfriend, and I heard he’s recently been involved in some criminal cases with the

Spence family, leaving quite a bit of evidence. If pursued, it’s possible he could end up in jail for a few

years. Mr. Whitney has to seek justice for Mr. Kevin Whitney. It’s not a big deal for young people to get

into minor trouble, but it doesn’t look good for the Whitney family’s reputation. What does Mr. Hebert

think?”

Upon hearing this, Dereon’s father became anxious when he learned that Dennis wanted to send his

son to prison, and said, “We can still discuss the project! Don’t touch my son!”

Cullen laughed, “Mr. Hebert, Mr. Whitney’s time is precious, not to be spent going back on his word

with you. You should focus on your own son. This time, he messed with someone he shouldn’t

have.”

Cullen left the Hebert residence, and Simon slumped on the couch. He knew that when Dennis sent his

son to jail, it wasn’t just to scare him.
