“Um,” Dennis said as he drove the car.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Marie asked.
“I told Old Mr. Spence, but I didn’t expect that he didn’t mention it to you,” Dennis said.
“Are formal dresses expensive?” Marie asked.
“Not bad,” Dennis said.

Marie pouted, realizing that it was true. After all, Dennis was the heir to New York’s most prestigious
family, and for him, a single piece of formal wear meant nothing.
She chewed on her muffin silently, and Dennis quickly drove them to the Spence mansion.
After getting off the car, Dennis said, “Let’s find other ways to deal with them in the future, so we don’t
get beaten up.”
“Understood,” Marie nodded.
“Marie.”
“Um?”
“I have a flight at 2 PM the day after tomorrow,” Dennis said.
“Oh…” Marie said, lowering her head.
“You can try, but deciding things for me won’t work,” Dennis said.
Marie’s mind was in a whirl, and she didn’t speak. Dennis reached out to gently tousle her messy
bangs, then turned around and got into the car.
Marie watched the car until its taillights disappeared from view, then turned around and headed
back to the Estate.
As soon as he entered, Edward saw her and smiled, “I thought Ms. Marie would be back later. Have
you had dinner yet?”
“No, I came back to have a meal with Grandpa,” Marie said.
Edward’s eyes lit up with joy, and he instructed the kitchen to serve the dishes quickly. He then went
inside the house to invite Asher to join them.
Once they were seated, Edward said, “Ms. Marie, please eat more. Old Mr. Spence specifically
instructed the kitchen to prepare some light dishes for you. Since you’re injured, consuming too much
soy sauce and chili pepper might leave scars.”
Marie suddenly thought of something and asked, “Will eating too many chili peppers leave scars?”
“Yeah, we should still watch our diet while the wound hasn’t fully healed,” Edward said.
So, is Dennis determined not to eat Greek food today because he’s afraid it might leave a scar on her
wound?
She felt warm and fuzzy inside, yet a bit disorganized, as she lowered her head to eat her meal.
Dennis said, “You can give it a try, but it’s my decision to make.”
He also asked, “Do you want me to come to Las Vegas?‘

It seemed as if there were some things she understood, but not quite completely. It was a feeling of
being unable to express herself, with the words stuck in her heart.
“Girl, didn’t you have fun going out with Dennis?” Asher asked.
“Huh? No, it’s just having a meal,” Marie said, looking down.
“Is it that today’s meal doesn’t suit your taste?” Asher asked again.
“No, Grandpa, I had snacks in the afternoon, so I can’t eat anymore,” Marie said.
“In a couple of days, school will start, and you need to study hard. Otherwise, with your current
grades, how can you get into a good university?” Asher said with concern.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa, I will study hard,” Marie said.
“Have you decided which university you want to attend?” the old man asked.
“Yale University,” Marie said.
“Cough, cough…cough…” Asher suddenly choked and started coughing vigorously.
“Edward immediately helped Asher catch his breath and gave him some water. Once Asher finally
recovered, he asked, “Which university are you planning to apply to?” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“Yale University, huh?” Marie repeated.
“Girl, it’s good to have dreams, but you must also face reality. Yale University is one of the top five
universities in the country, and countless people struggle to get in every year!” Asher said.
“Um, I know, but I can get in,” Marie said.
“Girl, don’t get too cocky. With your grades being at the bottom of the school, it’s already impressive if
you can get into college, let alone Yale University!” the old man said.
Marie was greatly embarrassed, as she had forgotten that the original owner of this body had been
drugged by Mia, causing her to become dull and foolish. She had always been at the bottom of the
school’s rankings.
“Grandpa, don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll get into Yale University!” Marie said with a smile.
“Hmph, you’ve blown your own trumpet too much, let’s see what you’ll do now!” Asher snorted.
“Grandpa, I’m your dear granddaughter, why do you always put me down!” Marie pouted.
“Alright, I won’t discourage you. If you get into Yale University, Grandpa will give you 5% of the
company shares!” Asher said.
Marie’s eyes lit up. What was Asher up to with this performance?

Mason holds 5% of the shares, Noel has 10%, and Asher grasps a whopping 45% of the shares,
remaining the largest shareholder in the Spence Group. Undoubtedly, he is the undisputed chairman.
If she gets a 5% stake, she could be on equal footing with Mason in the company. Although Marie
really wants it, she hesitates. Is Asher genuinely offering it to her, or is he just testing her?
“Grandpa, why would I need shares? I’m not even joining the company“, Marie tried to dodge the
issue.
“You may not be working in the company now, but once Grandpa is gone, they might not accommodate
you there either. With these shares, you can still receive annual dividends and not have to worry about
food and clothing!” Asher said earnestly.
“Grandpa! What are you talking nonsense about? You’re in such good health, why even think about
these things?”
Marie was somewhat unhappy. Although Asher was meticulous in everything he did, he was also very
kind to her, and there was definitely some affection between them.
“Girl, these shares aren’t just handed to you for nothing. If you get into Yale University, this is the
reward
you deserve. If you don’t, well, you won’t get anything!” Asher said with a laugh as he stood up and
went out for a stroll.
Marie returned to her room, lying on the bed, tossing and turning. She felt that things had been quite
chaotic recently.
Dennis made her feel confused, and so did Asher.
She was reborn to seek vengeance, but it seemed that more and more uncontrollable events were
finding their way into her heart.
There were many things that she had never encountered or experienced when she was Rose.
The unfamiliarity frightened her, yet the warmth drew her closer.

Knock! Knock! Knock!
The sound of knocking came from the door. Marie got out of bed and opened it, only to find Edward
standing outside with a tray in his hands.
“Edward, is there something going on? It’s so late,” Marie asked.
“Ms. Marie, you didn’t eat much for dinner, and Old Mr. Spence is worried you might be hungry. He
asked me to bring you some more food,” Edward said.
“Thank you, Grandpa, and sorry for the trouble, Edward.” Marie stepped aside to make way as Edward
entered the room, carrying a tray.
“Ms. Marie, I’ve warmed up some milk for you and prepared a few finger food. Please have a bite
before going to sleep, don’t go to bed hungry,” Edward said as he placed the items on the table,
reminding her.
“Alright, I understand now. Thank you, Edward,” Marie said.
“Ms. Marie, you’ve had a hard time in the past, and Old Mr. Spence feels sorry about it. Sometimes he
wants to make it up to you, so please don’t refuse his help. He’s old, and it’s inevitable that he
may not think things through thoroughly,” Edward suddenly said.
Marie looked up and met Edward’s concerned gaze. She smiled and said, “I understand, thank you
for the reminder, Edward.”
Edward: “Well, I’ll be heading back then, Ms. Marie. Remember to eat something.”
Marie: “Alright.”
Edward’s action of bringing her a late–night snack wasn’t really for that purpose. Instead, it was
because during dinner, Marie tactfully refused Asher’s offer of shares, and now Edward was here to
confront her about it.
Marie figured out that Asher felt extremely guilty towards her, so his sincere intention was to offer
her shares for protection, rather than testing her.
She should have been happy for getting a share of the stocks, but she felt melancholic due to Asher’s
increasing age.
Marie sipped her milk, glancing at the assortment of finger food on the plate, but nothing seemed
appetizing. She opened the door and walked to the living room entrance, remembering the box of
muffins Dennis had bought for her on their way back. They hadn’t finished them, so she had placed
the box on top of the cabinet by the entrance.
Marie grabbed a muffin and, as she turned around, she was startled. “Jolie, it’s so late at night, why

aren’t you sleeping?”
“Ms. Marle, it’s only nine o’clock. I’ll help the housekeepers tidy up the kitchen.” Jolie said.
Seeing the muffin in Marie’s hand, Jolie grinned cheekily, “Did Mr. Whitney buy it for you?”
Marie: “Mhm.”
“Ms. Marie, what do you think of Mr. Whitney?” Jolie asked.
“What’s going on?” Marie asked, her head lowered as she walked back into the room.
Jolie followed behind her, chattering away, “What about his character and family background? Ms.
Marie, don’t you think Mr. Whitney treats you very well?”
Marie walked back to her room and plopped down on the carpet, resting her chin on her hands. She
thought to herself, has Dennis been treating her well?
It seems pretty good.
He saved her life, lent her 3 million dollars, gifted her elegant dresses, and helped her deal with Mia
and her daughter…
Ever since her rebirth, Dennis has been the kindest person to her.
Marie felt so good that she believed if she were to commit murder now, Dennis would even hand
her the knife.
Seeing Jolie’s eyes blinking at her, Marie took a bite of the muffin and mumbled, “It’s not bad.”
“Does Ms. Marie like Mr. Whitney?” Jolie asked.
Marie couldn’t catch her breath as the muffin made her choke and cough. Jolie quickly gave her a sip
of milk, which helped Marie breathe more easily.
“Ms. Marie had such a strong reaction, could it be that she really likes Mr. Whitney?” Jolie asked.
“No, don’t talk nonsense. Take the stuff out, I’m going to sleep.” Marie put down her muffin, stood
up, and walked into the bathroom with her clothes.
Jolie felt helpless, so she could only pack her things and leave Marie’s room.
After taking a bath, Marie came out to find that Jolie had already tidied up and left. However, the
box of muffins was still sitting on the table.
Marie crawled back into bed, pulling the covers over her head, her mind becoming increasingly
chaotic.
Does she like Dennis?

Don’t like it, huh?
Dennis treats her quite well.
But I never said I liked her, right?
Marie tossed and turned, not wanting to think about it anymore. After struggling until midnight, she
finally fell asleep.
The next day…
After getting up, Marie tidied up a bit and then joined Asher for breakfast before heading out,
Today is the day Emory and I agreed upon for their visit to Las Vegas.
nd
Marie, dressed in a black trench coat wearing sunglasses, took one of Asher’s cars and arrived at the
airport early.
At ten o’clock, the flight from Moscow to Las Vegas arrived, and Marie stood at the arrival gate, eagerly
looking forward. From a distance, she saw four people coming out.
The two men walking in front were wearing colorfT–shirts and pants, with sneakers on their feet.
The two women behind them were also dressed in colorful outfits.
Marie felt embarrassed… These four people walking together looked just like a tourist group…
Marie held a rose in her hand, waving it in the air. The four people saw her and walked towards her.
This is the secret code she and Emory agreed upon: the rose, representing Rose.
The tall man leading the group walked over and sized her up. Marie took a deep breath and removed
the sunglasses from her face.
“Rose?!” All four of them were astonished.
Marie laughed and said, “I’m not Rose. Let’s get in the car first, and I’ll explain everything once we get
home.”
Upon seeing her face, which was identical to Rose’s, the four of them were already half–convinced
and followed her into the car.
Marie drove to Westline Mansion, and the four of them entered the mansion. After setting down
their backpacks, they all stared intently at Marie. Today, if she didn’t explain herself clearly, she
might not be able to leave the mansion.
Marie couldn’t help but say, “I’m not Rose, my name is Marie. I’m her twin sister, and we were
separated when we were young. We only reunited a few months ago.”
“Where’s Sister Rose? Where did she go? Why isn’t she here to pick us up?” asked the

Marie glanced at him; this was Luca, who didn’t even have a last name when he first joined the Rodger
Group. It was Marie who suggested that he take Emory’s surname. So he became Luca
Todd…
“She’s dead. I’ve already told Emory about it,” Marie said.
Another tall man, who was the leader, was Emory. He nodded and said, “I’ve checked, and over a
month ago, Wren did indeed take a team to Brussels. That’s also when Rose went missing.”
“Rose told me that Wren has always been hostile towards her, and now that Wren has succeeded, she
will target you all, who are Rose’s confidants. Mike and Jett have already been implicated, and you
can’t be in danger anymore,” Marie said.
“But why are you helping us?” Emory asked, standing next to the blonde–haired, blue–eyed Kate.
“We’re just a group of fugitives without even a real identity.”
“Rose has passed away, and I will protect you all in her stead,” Marie said.
“Is it really that simple?” Kate asked.
“It’s that simple. I’ve bought this mansion, and you can stay here for now. If you have other plans, feel
free to leave at any time. If you want to stay, I’ll figure something out. As long as you’re safe, that’s all
that matters,” Marie said.
The last girl wearing glasses was named Amy. She had been quiet all along, but finally spoke up,
saying, “I think Ms. Spence means no harm. Let’s settle down for now.”
The other three nodded and went to find their own rooms.
Marie sat in the living room on the first floor, letting out a sigh.
This hurdle was somehow overcome. As long as these four people were safe, she could
wholeheartedly focus on dealing with Wren.
After settling everyone in, Marie returned to the Estate.
At this moment, Cullen knocked on Dennis’s door.
“Come in.” Dennis said, looking down at the documents.
“Mr. Whitney, Ms. Marie, someone moved into that mansion today.” Cullen reported anxiously as he
entered the room.
“Who is it?” Dennis asked.
Cullen took out a few photos and placed them in front of Dennis, saying, “Two men and two women.
Ms. Marie personally picked them up from the airport and took them to the mansion. After settling

Dennis looked at the photo in his hand. Marie was wearing a black trench coat, sporting huge
sunglasses, and holding a vibrant bouquet of roses.
Behind her, four young people followed, looking like they were here for a vacation…
Have we found out who it is? Dennis asked.
“I’ve checked, but I couldn’t find anything…” Cullen lowered his head.
“What do you mean it can’t be found?” Dennis was speechless.
“I checked the flight records for that day, and these four people flew directly from Moscow to Las
Vegas. Their documents were fake. I had someone compare their faces with all the systems, but there
were no records of them. We couldn’t find their names or identities; it’s as if they appeared. out of thin
air.” Cullen was speechless. What kind of people were surrounding this Marie?
Dennis was also shocked. Could it be that these four people without identities had actually been
smuggled in?
He held a few photos, staring at Marie’s delicate little face and the flowers in her hand.
Rose…
Rose?
Rose is a world–renowned spy and assassin. It is only natural that the people around her have no
names and no identities, existing like ghosts.
Last time, Rose made a deal using the location of the goods and exchanged it for 4.5 million dollars.

However, Rose is a highly skilled assassin with no defeats to her name. Every mission she undertakes
is executed flawlessly.
Marie is just a high school student. Cullen checked last time, and she has never left the Spence
mansion since she was a child.
It can’t be just one person’s.
Eliminate all possibilities, then the only impossible one is the correct answer.

There must be some connection between Marie and Rose!
But what he couldn’t understand was, why would a high school student be connected to a renowned
assassin?
“Keep a close watch on those people, and report any news immediately.” Dennis instructed.
“Yes, Mr. Whitney, and what about Ms. Marie… Should we keep an eye on her?” Cullen asked
hesitantly.
After a long silence, Dennis said in a deep voice, “Hmm.”
Cullen stepped out the door, sighed, and shook his head.
Marie is quite mysterious, and Dennis doesn’t take the initiative to ask questions. Marie, on the other
hand, is even less likely to voluntarily reveal anything. It always feels like something big is about to
happen…
The next day, Marie was at home when she suddenly received a call from Emory. In the call, Emory’s
voice was extremely anxious: “Ms. Spence! Can you come over to the mansion right now? Amy is not
doing well!”
“What does ‘not in a good situation‘ mean?” Marie asked as she stood up from the couch and changed
her shoes.
“She’s had a high fever since yesterday, and she’s been unconscious all day today. She even coughed
up blood just now!” Emory said.
“Coughing up blood? Hold on, I’ll be right there!” Marie immediately left the house.
Just as I arrived at the door, I bumped into Edward.
“Ms. Marie, where are you hurrying off to?” Edward asked.
“Edward, I have to run an errand, so I’m taking the Audi from Grandpa’s garage,” Marie said.
“Ms. Marie, it’s better to get your driver’s license sooner rather than later. Otherwise, driving without a
license like this will make Old Mr. Spence unhappy,” Edward advised her.
“I understand.” Marie hurriedly drove out the door.
Upon arriving at the mansion, Marie practically sprinted inside. Seeing her enter, Emory
immediately led her further in.
“Amy is in the room, and Kate and Luca are taking care of her. We just left the Rodger Group, so it’s
not good to show our faces. You’ll have to think of something.” Emory was somewhat anxious, after all,
these people were like family who had been through life and death together.
Marie entered the room and found Amy lying on the bed, her face pale and lifeless.

“Ms. Spence, please think of something quickly. Amy’s fever must be more than just a simple one,”
Luca said anxiously.
These people couldn’t make a conspicuous appearance at the hospital now. Left with no choice, Marie
took out her phone and called Gavin.
“Ms. Spence?” Gavin’s voice sounded quite cheerful on the other end.
“Dr. Hart, do you have a moment? I have a patient here who needs urgent treatment,” Marie said.
“Tell me the location, and I’ll head over right now,” Gavin agreed wholeheartedly.
“Westline Mansion District, Building A, Block 2,” Marie immediately provided the address.
After hanging up the phone, Emory hesitated a bit, “Ms. Spence, can we trust this doctor?”
Marie: “I’m not sure, but he’s the best doctor I know. When he arrives, you guys should stay out of
sight to avoid any complications.”
About ten minutes later, the sound of a car
returned to their rooms. Marie went down ine could be heard. Emory and the others each
opened the door, and said, “Come on in.”
“What kind of patient? One that’s worth Ms. Spence placing them in Westline Mansion?” Gavin
asked.
“Stop asking questions, let’s treat the illness first.” Marie led Gavin upstairs and entered Amy’s
room.
Gavin examined Amy’s body and even took her pulse, his brow furrowed the entire time. He said, “It
seems to be just a fever, but I recommend moving her to the hospital for further medical
examination.”
“I can’t move her; she can only stay here,” Marie said.
Gavin gave her a puzzled look and said, “Alright then, I’ll draw some blood for testing and come
back tomorrow.”
Marie nodded, watching as Gavin had his blood drawn. Then, she saw him off as he left the
mansion.
All day, Marie stayed in the mansion, watching as Kate and the others bustled about taking care of
Amy. She could only wait for Gavin’s examination results.
In the afternoon, Amy suddenly began to vomit blood profusely, followed by convulsions and shock.
Within a few minutes, her heartbeat ceased.
As Kate and the others‘ loud shouts came from upstairs, Marie rushed up, only to find Amy out of
breath.

At that moment, Gavin called: “Ms. Spence, the blood test results for the girl show that an unknown
virus has entered her body and is rapidly destroying her immune system. If this continues, the fever will
soon take her life. It’s best to move her to the hospital’s sterile room.”
“No need,” Marie said through gritted teeth, before hanging up the phone.
“Can someone explain why there’s a virus inside Amy’s body?” Marie asked, looking at the group.
“It’s Wren. Rodger Group has been researching biomedicine, and Wren has access to the lab.
Recently, she’s the only one who took Amy there!” Kate said.
Emory kicked over a chair beside him, and a sorrowful atmosphere enveloped the entire room.
“I’ll contact the funeral home. We’ll bury Amy, and you guys draw your own blood. I’ll take it for
testing; we can’t afford any more incidents!” After saying this, Marie left the mansion.
Back in the car, Marie sat in the driver’s seat, pounding the steering wheel fiercely as large tears
streamed down her face.
Mike, Jett, Amy…
Wren had already killed too many people around her, and she was still trapped in this small Spence
family, unable to do anything!
She was too weak, far too weak.
Marie drove to the kickboxing gym and trained from afternoon until it got dark. She wore out Levi
and even managed to break a sandbag.
She had nowhere to vent her feelings, and the guilt and helplessness in her heart were about to
consume her.
At this moment, Dennis was sitting at the airport, when Cullen reminded him again, “Mr. Whitney,
it’s time to board.”
Dennis opened his phone, and it lay quietly in the palm of his hand, with no messages or calls.
Was he not clear in what he said?
He said that he would be returning to New York this afternoon.
He informed Marie of the time and location of his flight, thinking that the girl would surely come to see
him off, even if she wasn’t too reluctant to part ways, at the very least she would bid him
farewell.
However, she didn’t come.
Not even a single phone call or message, it seemed as if Dennis leaving Las Vegas had nothing to do
with her at all.

Whether they would meet again in the future or not, she didn’t care in the slightest.
Cullen was getting a bit anxious. It was clear that Dennis was waiting for Marie. Cullen tentatively
asked, “Ms. Marie might be held up by something. Should I give her a call to check?”
Dennis put away his phone, his voice somewhat cold and firm, “No need, let’s go.”
He had done more than enough, offering help and making his stance clear, yet Marie showed no
response at all.
There’s no need to continue like this anymore.
What could possibly hold up an eighteen–year–old girl?
Even if you’re busy, can’t you spare some time to make a phone call?
Dennis closed his phone, stood up, straightened his clothes, and left the rest area.
When Marie left the kickboxing gym, it was raining outside. She didn’t have an umbrella, so she It was
raining outside. She didn’t have an umbrella, so she hurriedly ran to the parking lot and drove back
home.
After parking the car, I prepared to let Jolie grab an umbrella to come and pick her up. However, I
realized that my phone was out of battery, so I had no choice but to get out of the car and walk back
to the Estate.
The rain in this season was icy cold and bone–chilling, but this downpour made her even more
awake.
Asher’s shares, she wanted to get her hands on them, along with the entire Spence family, she
wanted it all.
In the end, it’s the Terry family.
Marie walked up to the entrance of the Estate, just as Carly returned with an umbrella in hand.
“Hey, who do you think I am? You’re all drenched like a drowned rat, and your grandpa doesn’t care?”
Carly held a blue umbrella, looking at her playfully.
Marie wiped the rainwater off her face. She glanced up at her and said coldly, “Get lost.”
“Marie, don’t get too smug. So what if you live with Grandpa? In the end, Dad will still go to New York to
open a subsidiary for me and my sister, and all the shares will be given to Noel. You won’t get a single
penny from the entire Spence family!” Carly taunted.
“Carly, are you here to show off?” Marie looked up.
“Do I really need to show off to you? You’re nothing but a beggar from the Spence family. Your mother
died young and left you, and your father doesn’t even look at you properly. You’ll never get anything!”
Carly sneered, looking at Marie’s pathetic state with disgust.

Marie laughed, her smile tinged with a hint of mockery and a touch of helplessness.
But her gaze was as cold as the rain that filled the sky.
She took one step at a time, approaching closer. Carly felt scared and backed away. As Marie reached
out her hand, Carly thought Marie was going to hit her and immediately lowered her head, trying to
dodge.
Then, Marie suddenly grabbed her by the collar. The immense force tightened around her neck,
making it difficult for her to breathe.
Before Carly had a chance to call for help, Marie grabbed her and forcefully pushed her against the
wall. With her other hand, she snatched Carly’s umbrella and threw it angrily on the ground.
In an instant, Carly was drenched by the heavy rain.
“Ahem… Marie… Are you crazy?” Carly was a bit dazed from the heavy rain.
“Am I crazy? Don’t you know that I‘
always been a madwoman? What did you just say? Your subsidiary? Noel’s shares? Let me tell you, all
of these are mine! In the end, you and your mother will be the beggars of the Spence family!” Marie’s
bloodshot eyes stared at her.
“Cough, cough… How dare you!” Carly exclaimed.
“Watch me, dare or not? If I find out that my mom’s death has even the slightest connection to your
mom, I will make sure you and your mom die a more miserable death!” Marie shouted loudly.
“Marie! Stop!” Noel’s voice came from behind.
It was pouring rain, and Noel thought of coming back early tonight to check on Asher, only to
witness this scene.
Carly found herself pinned against the wall by Marie, both of them drenched in the pouring rain.
“Noel… Noel, save me!” Carly cried out.
Marie didn’t even look back. Seeing Carly’s pitiful expression, she laughed. With a flick of her hand,
Carly fell into the rain. Noel immediately rushed to help her. Carly scrambled up and hid in Noel’s arms,
crying and complaining, “Noel! Marie said she’s going to kill me! And she wants to kill mom
too!”
Noel frowned, just by looking at Marie’s retreating figure, he could feel the malicious aura emanating
from her.
He couldn’t understand why a young girl, in the prime of her life, could harbor so much resentment
in her heart.

tightly to her body.
Her face turned pale, and though she was shivering from the cold, she still managed to smile.
She glanced at Carly, shivering in Noel’s arms, and thought to herself that if it weren’t for this family,
the old Marie would have been the cherished gem of this household.
But now, all she wanted was to reclaim what originally belonged to Marie, yet she was treated as an
unforgivable mansionin.
“Noel, why are you nervous? Do you really believe what I said about scaring Carly? Or do you think I
would actually kill her?” Marie tilted her head, her smile innocent and pure.
Noel held the umbrella, gazing at her intently without speaking.
“Carly, remember what I said, and wait for me,” Marie said with a laugh that sent chills down
Carly’s spine.
