    Chapter 129


    Nataly’s carefully arranged ns were exposed by Marie, and without caring about her own. disguise,


    she blushed and shouted, “Marie! What do you think you are? You’re nothing more than Dennis’s


    nameless, insignificant sexual partner! You’re just warming his bed and now you have the nerve to get


    angry? Who is Dennis? He has seen all kinds of women; how could he possibly be interested in you?”


    Marie grabbed Nataly’s wrist and forcefully pushed her towards the door. As Nataly struggled and


    cursed, she said, “Did I say something wrong? Aren’t you just hiding behind Dennis without any real


    status, acting all high and mighty? Bitch! Dennis is mine!”


    Nataly was pushed with her hair disheveled, her slippers fell off inside the house, and she stood


    barefoot at the door, looking quite embarrassed.


    Marie sneered, “Ms. Carmen, even if I’m just a sexual partner, at least I’m not like you, trying every trick


    in the book and still Dennis doesn’t even give you a nce!”


    Marie threw Nataly’s high heels at her feet and mmed the door shut with a “bang.”


    Outside the door, Nataly’s face turned red with anger, and she cursed loudly a couple of times.


    Unwilling to give up, she left, but the key was still there. She believed she would find an opportunity


    eventually. If all else failed, she would climb onto Dennis’ bed, and she didn’t believe that Dennis


    would remain indifferent!


    Inside the house, Marie kicked off her slippers and returned to the living room. She sat on the sofa, but


    she couldn’t read a single word from the script on the coffee table.


    She just couldn’t lose face to Nataly, so she forcefully drove Nataly away. However, even though she


    knew that all of this was Nataly sowing discord and that it was all just an act by Nataly, it didn’t


    mean she wasn’t truly angry.


    She was very angry, angry that Nataly had the keys to Glorious Estate, angry that the woman boldly.


    walked in, angry that she wore Dennis’ slippers, and angry about the things she said.


    She said, “You were just following Dennis without any real status or recognition.”


    Yes, Dennis never said anything about liking her directly. He just had many, many hints, lots of


    ambiguity, and plenty of sweet talk.


    Marle felt happy that everyone thought Dennis liked her, and deep down, she knew she had feelings for


    Dennis too. So, naturally, she enjoyed this kind of good fortune.


    But when Nataly stood in front of her, repeatedly saying that she had no status or recognition, Marie


    truly realized that the so-called status was indeed very important.


    Just as she desperately wanted to stand openly by Seth’s side back then, she wanted Seth to give her


    an identity, a status, instead of being an assassin who could only live in the shadows wearing a


    mask.


    Seth gave the title to Wren, so who would Dennis give the title to?


    What exactly did I count as?


    Did Dennis experience a little girl in his long life?


    Eventually, he would get married and have children. Will I be the woman with status and identity


    who could drive others away and dominate?


    Marie knew that she shouldn’t doubt Dennis’s sincerity. She could see how good he had been to her


    all this time.


    But she just felt uneasy and couldn’t get out of this strange loop, sitting there from day until sunset, and


    then until the outside was brightly lit.


    She couldn’t understand, her heart was inplete chaos.


    Dennis finished work and returned to Glorious Estate. He searched his pocket for the keys but


    couldn’t find them. He then extended his hand to press his fingerprint, which opened the door. The


    room was pitch ck.


    Dennis turned on the light in the foyer, and saw one of his slippers on the floor. He walked into the


    living room, and with the warm yellow light from the foyer, he could vaguely see someone sitting


    on the sofa.


    Dennis was taken aback, “Marie?”


    Marie sat quietly as Dennis walked in, bypassing another slipper. Before he reached Marie, he kicked


    something with his foot. Dennis looked down and saw a green pepper.


    Property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    It seemed as if a battle had taken ce at home, with slippers and green peppers scattered all over


    the living room, and Marie’s script piled up in a mess.


    Dennis walked over, crouched down in front of Marie, pulled her closer to him, and asked, “Marie,


    what’s wrong?”


    Marie was clever, Dennis had a strong scent of perfume on him, and Nataly had a scent of perfume


    on her.


    How could the shirt have gotten such a strong smell without close contact?


    How close was Nataly to Dennis?Marie didn’t want to think about it.


    Nataly might have hugged and kissed Dennis, had the keys to Glorious Estate, worn Dennis’ slippers,


    and walked around confidently in the ce Marie considered her second home.


    The luxurious perfume made her want to vomit at that moment.


    Marie stretched out her hand, pushed Dennis away, and shouted, “Don’t touch me!”


    Dennis paused, furrowed his brow, and asked, “Marie, what’s wrong?”


    Marie suddenly stood up and said, “I have to go!”


    Dennis grabbed her, but Marie recoiled as if she had been electrocuted. She rubbed her hand in


    disgust. Dennis, with a cold expression, asked, “Do you despise me?”


    Marie hung her head, not saying a word. The room was dimly lit by the foyer light, and Dennis couldn’t


    see her face clearly. All he saw was her head hanging down, silent.


    “Marie, speak up, what happened?” Dennis asked again.


    Marie still had her head down and muttered, “Nataly has arrived.”


    “What?” Dennis didn’t react immediately. In the past, Marie had also seen Nataly many times, and he


    had clearly stated that he didn’t like Nataly. He thought Nataly wouldn’t cause much trouble for


    Marie.


    “Nataly came in, she opened the door herself. Dennis, why does Nataly have a key to this ce?”


    Marie looked up and asked Dennis.


    Although the living room was dim, Dennis could still see Marie’s bright, clear eyes. It seemed as if


    there were tears shimmering in them, but it could have just been the light from outside that made


    him see things.


    Dennis choked, he didn’t know how Nataly could have had the key to Glorious Estate.


    He subconsciously touched his pocket and suddenly remembered that Nataly had fallen on him today.


    Where had his keys gone?


    “Maybe she took my…” Dennis was about to say “keys” when Marie interrupted him, “Did she reach


    into your pocket and take the keys? Dennis, why didn’t you just tell me she took off your


    pants?”


    Dennis frowned, feeling somewhat irritated. He knew that when Marie was in this state, she was upset


    and would push him to argue with her, saying anything that came to mind.


    “Marie, you clearly knew I wouldn’t do that!” Dennis said.


    “I don’t know! You guys grew up together since childhood, how long have I known you? What do 1


    know?”


    Marie, like a hedgehog with all its defenses up, red and vented her anger at Dennis.


    “Marie! How could I possibly give the house key to Nataly? You clearly knew she was up to something!”


    Dennis shouted, rubbing his forehead.


    Cet


    “Dennis, Nataly was so determined to be with you! She brought all these groceries here! Wearing your


    slippers, she wanted to cook a meal for you! What else have you two done?”


    Marie was so angry that she couldn’t control her words. She knew she was being unreasonable, but


    she just couldn’t help it. She felt terrible and wanted Dennis to feel terrible with her.


    “Marie! Think before you speak!” Dennis said, holding back his temper, as his temples throbbed.


    Marie gathered up her script, stuffed it into her backpack, kicked aside a few scattered green. peppers,


    and headed towards the door.


    Dennis caught up to her at the door and, with a cold expression, said, “Marie, I’ve told you before that I


    don’t like Nataly! Stop making a fuss for no reason!”


    Marie shook off his hand and shouted, “You never said you liked me either! I’m just being


    unreasonable!”


    Marie ran into the elevator and left Glorious Estate.


    Dennis looked at the mess in the living room, rubbed his throbbing temples, and kicked over the


    coffee table.


    Marie had a very explosive temper, and it was as if she had her own little territory. Undoubtedly,


    Nataly had offended her most sensitive area, causing her to lose control and be extremely


    angry.


    Nataly’s words suddenly made her feel a sense of crisis, and that strong feeling of insecurity swept


    over her again. It seemed as if she could lose Dennis at any moment.


    As soon as she thought about Dennis cooking a meal with another woman and asking about her well-


    being, she felt a deep pain that spread throughout her entire body, reaching every limb and bone, with


    no way to release it.


    Marie took a taxi to the racing circuit, a ce owned by Andres. Several young people from wealthy


    families, who enjoyed spending time together, would often meet there for auto racing.


    Darwin used to hang out here often, but now Marie took him to seriously act in movies, so he rarely


    Marie entered the venue, and a few unfamiliar men saw her. They greeted her and asked, “Hello, Miss!


    Are you here for auto racing?”


    Marie raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, saying, “Let’s y! Are there any stakes?”


    A young man wearing a leather jacket approached, the chains on his body jingling, and said, “One


    round for 75 thousand dors, want to y?”


    “150 thousand dors,” Marie said.


    “Oh!” The people around were cheering. They were all hedonistic people who bummed around,


    engaging in auto racing for fun. Spending 75 thousand dors or 150 thousand dors was no big deal


    for them, but it was their first time seeing such a daring girl.
