Marie jumped due to fright, stood up, and looked at Damien who was looking at her coldly.

She gulped as she breathed in trying to calm herself and convince herself that Damien would never

hurt her because of Amanda.

“Why are you shouting at me? Are you Amanda’s fiancée or mine?” she asked with tears on her face.

Although she was angry, she knew that acting pitiful would make Damien feel sorry for her thus she

had to control her anger.

“Am I shouting at you?” Damien asked in disbelief as he looked at the pitiful woman in front of him.

In the past, whenever she tried crying, Damien’s heart would ache for her, and he would do anything

for her.

Now, he must felt disgusted by her acting and wondered why he had never seen her acting.

‘She should just enter the entertainment industry instead of using her acting skills on me! If she did,

would have earned money and I wouldn’t have been worrying about the Andersons!‘.he said inwar as he continued to watch her tears rolling down and her biting her lower lips pretending that she was shaking due to fear.

“Marie, I wish you went on and did your stuff not harming me, my family, and my family’s business! Do you know that the Andersons already know you are the one behind everything and they had called, m Do you want to see my future ruined completely?” he asked as he stared at her trying to see through.

her.

“I didn’t do anything! I am not the one! Someone might be framing me!” she said as she started crying loudly.

“Damien please believe me, I can never do such a thing. Although she is richer than me and comes from a good family, why should I feel jealous of her while I managed to get you while she lost? What did her background and great ‘achievements‘ do to help when you were married to her? Not even that, wh didn’t she use them to try tying our completely with her?” she asked.

“That’s what I am trying to understand Marie, if you claim you aren’t jealous of her and are not

threatened, then why did you do it? Why? You must give me an explanation today!” Damien said cold

and sternly leaving no room for negotiations.

Marie panicked inwardly as she cussed at Damen for being petty.

“Damien, why aren’t you believing me? I said that I had nothing to do with her so–called death! What

would I have gained when she died?” she asked angrily making a faint cold smile appear on Damien’s

face.

He had known that there would be a point at the latter to lose control and forget that she was

pretended to be wronged but he had not expected her to get tired and lose composition so quickly.

The more, Marie behaved, the more Damien wondered whether he was a fool in the past as he had always

fallen for her tricks and tears.

“You are asking me what would you have gained? Then I will tell you! My mom and grandmother are disinterested and are refusing that I should marry you as your family isn’t well off. Oh, they even cut ties with you thus you are just like the street orphan girl we knew Amanda was,” Damien said making Marie’s eyes widen before darkening and being filled with hatred.

“How can my family allow me to marry such a person? I had married such a person because my grandfather forced me to. If they were asked, I would marry a young rich lady from the capital or any other cit

city. Her family is more powerful and richer than ours. Now do you think that they will agree to our marriage after they find out that Amanda is the youngest daughter from the richest family in the country? They won’t! I am the one who wanted to marry you cause I always thought you were kin caring, loving, pure, and innocent. That there is nothing wrong you would do!” Damien told her calmly making Marie bite her lower lips but she didn’t dare look at Damien as she was afraid of meeting with

him cold eyes.

To her, it was better to lower her head than see the cold eyes he was giving her.

She had always seen Damien trying his employees, business associates, and Amanda like that but never once did he ever use it at her. Even, she never thought that there would be a day like this when he would treat her like an enemy.

“You want Amanda gone so that you cannot feel threatened! So that no one can take me away from me bu after everything you’ve done, do you think that I will want to go with the wedding?” Damien asked making Marie panic and run towards him.

“Please, please, please, you can’t say that! You promised me that you would marry me! You said that

we will spend the rest of our lives together, why are you changing your mind? Just because of that

bitch?” Marie said angrily and full of hate as she cried and grabbed Damien’s arm.

“Let go of my arm! I am so disappointed in you Marie! I wish that when I asked you, you could have

just admitted your mistakes and said that you did it because of this and that but not denying it when

everything points at you,” he said as he massaged his temple due to a severe headache.

“I said that I didn’t do it! Why can’t you just believe me? Have you seen my chats with the thugs for

you to claim that I am the one who had sent the hooligans after Amanda? Do you think I would stand

that low and pay some cheap hooligans to kill her?” Marie said as there was no way she would admit

the truth!

She believed that if she did, her plans and everything she worked for would be ruined.

Damien just stared at her and felt disappointed.

“Chats? The chats were on Eunice’s phone,” Damien said as he glanced at her trying you catch up with

the emotions she would show after hearing it.

As expected, he saw some joy in her eyes and a triumphant smile appear but that was for a few seconds

before it vanished.

If he had not been so quick to look at her, he would have also missed it.

“We both know that Eunice isn’t that malicious. If she wanted to kill Amanda, she would have done it

when Amanda still lived with us.”
