NovelsFreeChapter 204: Marissa was taken aback to find that Arabella hadn't gone to her room to rest. Surprised at first, she soon felt a wave of guilt wash over her. Typically, Arabella succumbed to sleepiness after events, and she was particularly exhausted after today's engagement party. Nevertheless, she stayed up, worried that Marissa might be unhappy. Marissa quickly reached for Arabella's hand and said, "Grandma, I won. I gave that jerk a hard lesson." "Really?" Arabella's eyes lit up with admiration. “You're amazing. That loser stands no chance against you." Connor, the so-called loser, was left dumbfounded. Could he leave? But as he considered that option, Arabella suddenly jabbed him with her crutch. "Where were you when Tiffany was being harassed in the game? Why didn't you intervene?"

Arabella glared at him with evident displeasure. "Tiffany was nearly driven to her breaking point by that jerk. I was about to call you to step in!" Arabella then scoffed with disdain. "Luckily, Tiffany won. Otherwise, I would've gone over there and taught that jerk a lesson myself with my crutch." Connor exhaled wearily. “Grandma, please don't call him that. It sounds rude."

What if Tiffany felt hurt by that?" As the crutch struck his shin, Connor grimaced, sucking in a breath. He hurried to calm Arabella. “Grandma, I let her win. She askedto fuck off, and I did so." Nearby, Domenic, Marc, and Terry stood in shock. It was at that moment that they all realized Bee was actually Marissa. Suddenly, it all made sense. Why had Connor been so humiliatingly defeated?

Domenic, Marc, and Terry simultaneously recognized that Connor's usual confidence wavered whenever Marissa was around; his whole attitude and competence seemed to transform They decided it was better to depend on Marissa than Connor in the future. While Domenic and Marc chose to keep quiet about this insight, Terry couldn't help but share his opinion. He leaned over to Domenic and Marc, whispering, "Tto change our motto. Trusting Mr. Daniels for our fortunes was a mistake. Clearly, the village girl is the one with the real power!"
Domenic and Marc tried but failed to suppress their laughter. Oblivious to their thoughts, Connor thought their laughter was due to Arabella scolding him and shot them a fierce look. Feeling threatened, Domenic, Marc, and Terry quickly disappeared
