    “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 backter. 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 toe to Las Vegas?‘

    It seemed as if there were some things she understood, but not quitepletely. 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 nning to apply to?”


    “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 be 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


    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 thergest 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 thepany. 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 thepany“, Marie tried to dodge the


    issue.


    “You may not be working in thepany now, but once Grandpa is gone, they might not amodate


    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 augh 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 uncontroble 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 sote,” 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 ced 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 ate–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 mncholic due to Asher’s


    increasing age.


    Marie sipped her milk, ncing at the assortment of finger food on the te, 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 ced


    the box on top of the cab by the entrance.


    Marie grabbed a muffin and, as she turned around, she was startled. “Jolie, it’s sote 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 dors, 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 tomit 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 bing 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 ck trench coat wearing sunsses, 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 peopleing 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 sunsses from her face.


    “Rose?!” All four of them were astonished.


    Marieughed and said, “I’m not Rose. Let’s get in the car first, and I’ll exin 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 exin 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

    sunny–looking boy.


    Marie nced at him; this was Luca, who didn’t even have ast 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 seeded, 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 ns, 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.


    Thest girl wearing sses 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 ovee. 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 ced 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

    them in, Ms. Marie returned to the Spence mansion.”

    Dennis looked at the photo in his hand. Marie was wearing a ck trench coat, sporting huge


    sunsses, 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 someonepare 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 dors.


    He had just found out that Rose was at the

    together, they “identally” leaked some business information.


    Every time, the only person present was Marie.


    However, Rose is a highly skilled assassin with no defeats to her name. Every mission she undertakes


    is executed wlessly.


    Marie is just a high school student. Cullen checkedst 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 youe 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 thanter. 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 anyplications.”


    About ten minutester, 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 cing 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 rmend 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 ande


    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 exin 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 ess to theb.


    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 asrge 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 ity 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 surelye 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’te.


    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 umbre, so she It was


    raining outside. She didn’t have an umbre, so she hurriedly ran to the parking lot and drove back


    home.


    After parking the car, I prepared to let Jolie grab an umbre toe 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 umbre 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 umbre, looking at her yfully.


    Marie wiped the rainwater off her face. She nced 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.

    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 cor. 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 umbre 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.

    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 eximed.


    “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.
