Chapter 770 | Don’t Know Either

“This is all because of Dan,” Manny snapped. “He’s the one who provoked the Dawson family’s princess!”
“What?”
Wait, what? How did it change again? Wasn't it supposed to be because of that little brat Diana gave birth
to?
By now, the entire Ashen Pact had been thrown into confusion.
Meanwhile, Dan got into the car.
He immediately dialed Marie. Because she had been hounding Ashen Pact for Tessa, she had reluctantly taken
him off her blacklist.
The moment the call connected, Dan gritted his teeth. “Marie, | don’t care if you believeor not, Tessa really
isn’t with Ashen Pact.”
“Instead of throwing all your forces at us, you should hurry up and look elsewhere. If you waste too much time
and she ends up dead, you'll just blAshen Pact anyway!”
Every word cout like an explosion; he was that desperate.
Right now, he wished he could rip out his own heart and shove it into her hands, make her see for herself that he
wasn't lying.
But Marie, unlike before-when she'd raged and demanded Tessa at every turn-was unusually calm.
Facing Dan's fury, she replied evenly, “You don’t need to tellthis.”
“What's that supposed to mean?”
“You should explain it to Victor,” she said, “or to my brother.”
Dan froze. Victor? Abraham?
“What do you mean?”
He didn’t get it.
What does that even mean-talk to Victor or Abraham? Wasn't it always her demanding Tessa from me?
Screaming, hysterical, every single time. Now suddenly she’s tellingto take it up with them?

“No special meaning,” Marie said. “From now on, it’s not my responsibility.”
Dan stared at the phone. Not her responsibility? What?
Just earlier, sparring with Dale and Manny had already left his head about to explode.
Now Marie's words stunned him completely.

Especially her tone-steady, almost detached; nothing like the woman who'd been on the of tearing him apart
before.
“You're serious?”
She was stepping back from this?

That was like the sun rising in the west. Before, when she cafter him for Tessa, her rage had been enough to
swallow him whole.
And now she said calmly it wasn’t her concern anymore?
Dan had no idea what she was scheming; there had to be strap in this.
“I'm serious,” she said.
“Serious? An hour ago you went after my Sna Lake holdings!”
Dan nearly exploded.
In just a few days, the Morris family’s private assets had taken heavy hits.
They hadn't completely lost them yet, but with outside forces interfering, serious problems had arisen.
Operations were in such disarray that production had been restricted for days.
Barely an hour ago, she had struck at his Sna Lake property; now she claimed Tessa was none of her business?
“Are you kidding me?” he ground out.
“I'm not joking,” she replied.
“Then what-

“I have to cooperate with my brother, and with Victor. This is what they want.
Dan froze. What? What they wanted?

Victor he could almost understand-because of Tessa.
“What's with your brother? I've never had any grudge with him!”
Dan’s fury boiled over.
“I don’t know,” Marie said simply.
Dan stared at the phone.
This call of hers had only two answers. It’s not my responsibility. | don’t know.
It left him utterly dumbfounded.

But now...
Marie's simple words left Dan's head spinning.
Ashen Pact was in chaos; and so was the Morris family, every last one of them.
“Marie!” Dan growled.
“Ugh, don’t ask me. | really don’t handle these things anymore,” she said.
And before he could respond, she hung up.
The sharp beep beep of disconnection left Dan’s face darker than a scorched pot.

Dan narrowed his eyes and dialed again-only to find he'd been blocked.
Blocked? At this moment? Was she really stepping away from it all?

Seething, Dan called Derrick instead.
Derrick happened to be with Maric. He'd heard every word of Dan's earlier call.
Marie sat there, looking utterly spent. “Tell me... what exactly did my brother do?”

She wasn't lying.
In that instant, Marie understood why her brother had never told her anything before.
