Edward sighed and said, “Ms. Spence, stop it. Let’s avoid any unnecessary casualties…”
Marie helped Edward up andforted him, “Don’t worry, Edward. Luca knows what to do.”
Edward lowered his head silently. Listening to the screams outside, he felt that Luca didn’t know what
to do.
Marie checked the wound on Edward’s head and said, “No broken skin, just a bruise. I’ll ask Luca to
apply
some medicine for youter. Edward, you’re old. Don’t fight them head-on. It’s no good.”
Edward sighed and pointed to the safety deposit box, saying, “This was left to you by Old Mr. Spence
before
he died. They can take everything else, but I can’t let them take this away.”
Marie knew that Edward was loyal to Asher and good to her. Now that Asher was gone, Edward
probably had no position in the Spence family anymore.
The screams outside finally stopped, and Luca walked in. Edward asked nervously, “Luca, you didn’t
hurt
them seriously, did you?”
Luca waved his hand and said, “No, no. Don’t worry, Edward. It’s just that they can’t get out of bed for
half a month. It’s okay.”
Edward was at a loss for words.
Luca looked at Marie curiously and asked, “You called me in a hurry and asked me to keep an eye on
the
safety deposit box. Is this what it is?”
Marie nodded. “Yes, that’s it.”
Squatting down to check the safe, Marie asked, “Edward, do you know the password?”
Edward nodded. ‘I know. Ms. Spence’s birthday is the password.”
Marie nose stung, and tears almost fell from her eyes. She keyed in the password quickly. With a click,
the safety deposit box’s lock was opened, and she flipped through it. There was only her birth
certificate and a

graveyard purchase contract inside, nothing else.
Marie took out the things and put them away. “Edward, the Spence mansion is not safe now. Why don’t
you
stay somewhere else with me?”
Edward shook his head. “No, I won’t. Ms. Spence, I’ve been living with Old Mr. Spence all my life. I
don’t have any children. Where should I go? I’ll go back to Las Vegas in a few days and live in the
Estate.”
Marie nose was sore as she said, “Edward, I’ll arrange a ce for you. You don’t have to go back to
Las Vegas alone…”
“There’s really no need for that, Ms. Spence. I wanted to go back and help Old Mr. Spence to look after
the Estate, Edward said with a smile.
Unable to persuade him, Marie could only nod and send Edward back after Edward packed his things.
Luca escorted Marie out of the door. As soon as they went out, they met Olive. Olive was smug and
didn’t

care about Marie at all. As soon as she saw Marie, she immediately smiled and said, “Oh, is the
illegitimate
child back?”
With a sneer, Marie said, “Olive, we all know very well whether I’m an illegitimate child or not. You
worked so hard to kick me out of the Spence family, didn’t you?”
Olive was not angry and said, “You’ve met Sasha, right? Sasha and Iliana are very sensible! As soon
as my press conference opens in two days, Maris Entertainment will officially be merged into Olive
Entertainment,
and everything you have is mine! Marie, I’ve won the battle.”
The mention of Sasha and Iliana ignited a me of anger within Marie. She vowed to address each and
every grievance they had endured, dealing with Olive and her aplices one by one.
Marie ignored her and left the mansion. Olive didn’t care. Anyway, it wouldn’t be long before Marie got
out of
here.
Just as Marie walked out of the door, she saw a low-key Audi parked in the corner outside. She
recognized this car, probably the cheapest one in Dennis’ garage. She walked over and opened the car
door, got into the back seat, and saw Dennis. She narrowed her eyes, smiled and asked, “Why are you
here?”
Dennis was a little unhappy and said, “Didn’t we agree on this yesterday? I was going to apany
you back in a couple of days to resolve the situation. Now you’vee back on your own. What if you
got injured?”
Marie stuck out her tongue and said, “I won’t get hurt. Luca is here!”
Dennis raised his eyebrows and looked at her. “So, you trust Luca more?”
Marie immediately hugged Dennis and said, “No! Definitely not! Of course, I trust my Den-Den the
most!”
Dennis nodded with a sense of contentment. Meanwhile, Cullen, sitting in the driver’s seat, couldn’t
help but tremble. He marveled, Ms. Spence is truly a genius! Just with few words, she can coax Mr.
Whitney!
But it was really sweet. No wonder Gavin refused to have a meal with Dennis recently. It was said that
he was
enough of their excessive disys of affection.
Cullen drove the two back to Glorious Estate. As soon as they entered, Marie habitually helped Dennis
to take off his jacket. Dennis was injured before, making it quite inconvenient for him to move his
shoulder. Marie. had always been assisting him, and she had grown ustomed to it.
Dennis looked at the woman in front of him, carefully helped him take off his jacket, hang it up, and
took out his slippers, He said with a smile, “It seems that you will be a very virtuous wife in the future?”
Stunned, Marie looked at the slippers in her hand and blushed. With a snap, she threw the slippers on
the floor and said, “Your wound is healed! You can wear it yourself!”
Dennis was speechless.
Why did I say that? Dennismented inwardly, filled with regret. If only I hadn’t spoken up, I could have
savored a few more days of such devoted service!
Cullen silently praised Marie in his heart, it’s awesome. You’re good at coaxing your husband! You’re
submissive when ites to coaxing, and full of momentum when it’s time to be fierce. Awesome!

Back in the living room, Marie asked, “Did anything go wrong when you went back to thepany
today?”
Before Dennis could speak, Cullen was amused. With a gossipy look on his face, he came over and
said, “Ms. Spence, you don’t know that the scene today can make meugh for a year!”
Marie became interested and even poured a ss of water for Cullen. She asked, “What happened?
What’s
going on?”
Dennis shook his head helplessly when he saw the excitement on their faces.
Cullenmented, “Hasn’t Mr. Whitney been absent for the past few days? That rascal, Kevin… No,
the youngest son of the Whitney family, has been causing quite a stir in thepany. He persuaded
Old Mr. Whitney to appoint him as the general manager, and now he was even contemting to take
over as the CEO
to seize control of Whitney Group!”
When Marie heard that, she asked nervously. “Then what? What is he now? The new CEO?”
Cullen smiled even more happily and said, “Who does he think he is, calling himself a CEO? He hasn’t
even done any of the business operations that we mentioned to him. Being a figurehead general
manager is already good enough. Yet, he insisted on causing a fuss for the past few days, jumping up
and down, demanding to hold a board meeting, iming that Mr. Whitney went missing without reason
and that a new CEO should be elected. And guess what? Today, during the meeting, Mr. Whitney
suddenly returned!”
Marie smiled and asked nosily. “That should be a wonderful scene, right?”
“That’s correct!” Cullen eximed, pping his thigh, as he proceeded to recount the details of the
incident to Marie. Helplessly, Dennis pinched the bridge of his nose, wondering if these two individuals
hadpletely disregarded his presence as the person directly involved in the situation.
ording to Cullen, when Dennis walked into the conference room, Kevin was sitting in his seat.
Dennis. walked over, sat at the end of the conference table, knocked on the table, and asked, “I heard
that in the past few days when I was away, the owner of Whitney Group has changed?”
The conference room was silent. Dennis was in charge of Whitney Group over the years, and the
businessndscape of Whitney Group had expanded again and again. The dividends in the hands of
these shareholders were getting more and more year by year. No one would question Dennis’s ability.
As for Kevin, everyone knew that it was difficult for the youngest son of the Whitney family to be
sessful. Otherwise, Old Mr. Whitney wouldn’t have brought Dennis back to take over Whitney
Group.
The shareholders didn’t say anything, but even Kevin didn’t dare to make a sound. Dennis looked at
Kevin across the conference table and asked, “Kevin, do you want to take over my ce?”
His eyes and aura were full of majesty. He was born to be dominant and didn’t need to be afraid of
anyone.
Kevin stuttered, “No… No, I’m just temporarily… temporarily…”
“In that case, I’m back. You can go home and rest. Dennis gave the order to leave without hesitation.
Cullen 1politely” called a taxi for Kevin and sent him back to the Whitney mansion.
As soon as Kevin stood up, Dennis issued amand, “Cullen, dispose of this chair and bring me a
new one. The meeting will proceed. Who here supports the appointment of a new CEO for Whitney
Group? Apparently,

my performance has fallen short of everyone’s expectations. Kindly submit your resignation letters to
my
office before the end of the workday.”
