Edward and Jolie tugged at Mason and Mia as they persuaded, “Sir, Madam, please go back first. Old

Spence can’t listen to these things now…”

Luca called for someone to kick them out. There were too many people gathered. Everyone was talking

over each other, and the noise was causing a headache.

Asher slammed his cane on the ground and demanded angrily, “Shut up! All of you shut up!”

No one heard him except Marie, who tried calming him down. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. I’ll make them

leave right now. Don’t be angry…” she started to say.

Before she could finish her sentence, Asher collapsed. Fortunately, she managed to catch him before

his

head hit the coffee table.

“Grandpa! Grandpa!” shouted Marie, but he fell to the ground, completely unconscious.

Everyone’s attention turned to them, too dumbfounded at the sudden sight of Asher to continue

arguing.

“Dad!” Mason and Mia cried, wanting to rush over.

With a steely expression, Marie shouted, “Edward! Call an ambulance!”

Edward made the call in a panic, while Jolie called Gavin to inform him that Asher had fainted again.

Mia and Mason pushed away the servants and were about to run over, but Marie gave them a cold

glare and

demanded, “Luca! Get them out of here!”

She initially considered the health of Asher and was cautious not to be too rude toward Mason and

Mia,

fearing that doing so might anger him.

However, at this moment, it didn’t matter what methods Luca used to get them away as long as the two

were

chased out.

Luca and the housekeeper forced the two to leave. They only listened to Marie in this mansion, so

regardless

of Mason’s and Mia’s identities, as long as Marie gave the order, they would take action.

The ambulance soon arrived, and the medical staff carried Asher into the ambulance. Marie and

Edward got on as well. Luca followed behind in his car, speeding to the hospital.

Gavin was already waiting outside the emergency room. As soon as he saw Asher, he followed and

entered

the emergency room without sparing the time to greet Marie.

Stopped by the door, Marie stared at the red light above the emergency room, her heart pounding. She

was

terrified. However, without Dennis by her side this time, she had to calm down to handle the situation.

Edward looked at her and said, “Ms. Marie, Old Mr. Spence will be alright. Don’t worry.”

Staring unblinkingly at the emergency room, she said, “Yes, Grandpa will be fine.”

As long as she didn’t admit or collapse, Asher would be fine. This old man must come out of the

emergency

room safely, she thought.

Edward hesitated before saying, “Ms. Marie, Old Mr. Spence told me to tell you that if there comes a

day he

cannot hold on any longer, he has property abroad that you can live in at any time. It has already been

transferred to you.”

Stunned, Marie asked, “Grandpa wants me to go abroad?”

Edward sighed and replied, “Old Mr. Spence was afraid that you and Mr. Whitney wouldn’t last and that

you’d

be bullied. That’s why he arranged for you to go abroad as a backup plan. Don’t overthink it.”

Marie nodded and grabbed her sweater, not knowing what to say then. That old man has already

quietly

taken care of all the arrangements, she thought.

Marie didn’t need to ask to know that Asher had left his shares to Noel. In Asher’s heart, Noel was

always his

precious grandson.

She didn’t care about the shares, the property, or the money. All she cared about was whether Asher

could

emerge from the emergency room safely tonight.

Time slowly went by. Marie was extremely anxious but still had to maintain a calm demeanor.

Otherwise, the

Spence family would be a mess.

The dead silence of the corridor reminded her of Noel’s background, Mia’s schemes, Mason’s ridicule,

and her

mother’s innocence.

She couldn’t ignore what mattered to her. She couldn’t tolerate Mia living comfortably in the Spence

mansion,

much less seeing Mason living in harmony with the Spence family.

However, after some hesitation, she turned to ask, “Edward, did Grandpa give Noel the shares?’

Edward was stunned. “That is Old Mr. Spence’s decision. I…”

“Edward, listen to me. I don’t want the shares, but they can’t be given to Noel!” She pleaded.

He didn’t understand why the usually filial Marie was fighting for the shares like Mia and the others.

Her mind seemed to be in a mess. She looked at Luca, who handed the documents to Edward. “Noel

isn’t the

Spence family’s biological son. If Grandpa gives the shares to him, it means that he’s given Spence

Group to

an outsider,” she explained.

Edward flipped through the document. The more he read, the more surprised he was. “Is… Is this

true?”

Marie nodded. “Why would I forge a copy of the information just to lie to you at a time like this?”

He sighed and exclaimed, “What a misfortune! Ms. Marie, Old Mr. Spence’s will has already been

notarized. Unless he wakes up, nobody can change It!”

Marle immediately ordered, “Luca, keep an eye on Mia and Mason. Make sure they don’t make trouble

at the

hospital. Edward, call Grandpa’s lawyer.”

Luca and Edward sprang into action. However, whether they could revise the will would ultimately

depend on whether Gavin could save Old Mr. Spence.

-Marie held onto her phone and couldn’t help but dial Dennis’ number. The phone rang for a long time,

but

unfortunately, nobody answered.

In Paris, France.

Dennis looked at the information before him and asked, “Clayton, are you trying to say that Marie is

Rose?”

“Isn’t it obvious? I’ve investigated Seth’s matter. He’s the sole male descendant of the Rodgers family,

which started as a mafia. Although they’ve now whitewashed their image, Seth indeed has his own

team with combat power comparable to the mercenary force! Furthermore, in this team…”

Clayton pointed at the photo on the table. The girl beside Seth looked just like Marie, just that her

expression. was colder and her eyes were shaper. “We all know the face of the Ace Killer, Seth’s

subordinate!” He said.

coldly.

The photo was right before them, and Clayton had investigated thoroughly. Rodger Group had its own

assassins, and everyone was trained to become the best spies. That girl was Seth’s trump card.

Following this trail, he traced countless internationally renowned missions and numerous legendary

assassins, all of

which involved her.

She was even at the costume party in France that Dennis and Clayton attended. She wore a beautiful

gown

and a black mask and raised her glass to them from a distance. Then, at that banquet, an oil tycoon

was

assassinated.

“No! It’s not like that! There must be a mistake somewhere!” Dennis shoved the photo aside and said.

“Dennis! Wake up! The truth is right in front of you. What could be wrong?” Clayton roared.

“Time! The timing doesn’t match! If Marie is Rose, as you claim, she should’ve grown up in France.

Then

who’s the eccentric Marie who grew up in the Spence family?” Dennis looked at Clayton and asked as

if

grasping onto a lifeline.

“Den, Marie from the Spencer family was mentally unstable for 18 years. Yet she suddenly became

clear-headed. Even now, she’s capable of causing upheaval in the Spencer family. Do you still believe

that she

is the same person?”

Clayton looked at him and said slowly, “Dennis, the Marie from the Spence family and the Marie you’re

currently engaged to aren’t the same people! This Marie is a spy who infiltrated your side! She’s Seth’s

childhood sweetheart!”
