The Returned Heiress Who Never Fit In novel Chapter 662

Chapter 662 Cut the Thread

Tessa and Victor… a

then Diana….

+8 Pearls

Dan lifted his eyes, a cold glint slicing through the air. “If it comes to it, make sure she doesn’t come back from Marie alive.”

A dangerous chill swept through the hospital room.

Conan nodded. “Understood.”

She absolutely couldn’t be allowed to return alive.

Especially now that she was in Marie’s hands–this was the perfect moment.

If Victor truly sided with Diana because of Tessa, it would be catastrophic for them.

Conan had only joined Dan’s side two days ago, having previously worked under Dennis.

He was sharp, calculating, and vicious–and completely loyal to Dan.

Any threat to Dan, and he’d eliminate it with ruthless precision.

And if Victor really was aligning with Diana because of Tessa, that alliance would be disastrous.

Conan’s eyes narrowed, his tone darker. “And Mr. Derrick? What’s the plan for him?”

At the mention of Derrick, Dan’s expression turned deadly.

Dennis had died by his hand. That debt still had to be paid.

Dan closed his eyes, his voice low and cold. “Handle Tessa first. Leave Derrick for later.”

That bastard Derrick… his time would come.

Conan nodded. “Understood.”

Right now, the top priority was Tessa.

She could become the vital link between Victor and Diana.

And that could not be allowed to happen.

On Derrick’s side-

“That night… you two really…”

He didn’t finish the sentence.

He’d left after escorting Derrick to his room that night, completely unaware of everything that followed.

Especially the chaos Marie stirred up afterward.

Bernard had initially thought Marie’s public blow–up with Dan, right after marrying Derrick, was some calculated insult.

Who would’ve guessed.

Derrick took a sip of wine. “You think I’d lie?”

Even Bernard–usually unreadable–couldn’t stop the twitch of his mouth at that.

Marie beating Dan half to death and sending him to the hospital… it was almost comical.

Bernard muttered. “That Dan… what an absolute sucker.”

He’d heard Dan was still stuck in the hospital.

Derrick was amused too.

Hell yes, he was a sucker.

And it wasn’t over yet–Marie still didn’t believe the man that night had been him.

Which meant once she was done with her current plans, Dan might get a few more rounds of beatings.

Bernard raised a brow. “She didn’t hit you when you said it was you?”

Now that was a surprise.

Dan got hospitalized, but Derrick walked away without a scratch?

Derrick smirked. “She didn’t believe me.”

Bernard went quiet.

Damn. That made Dan’s situation even more pathetic.

Just then, Sebastian burst into the room.

“Victor’s heading to the airport. He must’ve gotten word about your sister–in–law’s location.”

Bernard sat up.

Derrick narrowed his eyes. “That fast?”

What the hell was Marie doing? Since when did she make it that easy to track her down?

Sebastian said. “His jet’s taking off in ten minutes.”

“Where to?”

Derrick’s voice was sharp.

“Northliso. If nothing goes wrong, she’s probably on one of the islands there.”

Northliso–a chain of scattered islands.

Maric loved island properties. She had hundreds–big and small.

She’d taken Stella to one years ago, and no one had been able to find them.

Now she’d pulled the same trick with Tessa?

Derrick finished his wine in one gulp and stood. “Get our jet ready.”

“We’re going too?” Sebastian’s eye twitched.

Derrick said, “Tessa’s training’s just started. You think she’s a threat already?”
