Chapter 27
A cold look flashed across Mable’s eyes. She uttered through gritted teeth, "*sshole!”
'l want to blow his head off!’
“Get in the car!” Blair pulled the car door open.
Mable shot him a look and reluctantly got into the car.
As Blair drove, he occasionally glanced at Mable, who was pretending to be asleep. He sized her up with curiosity.
“Mable, just how many more identities do you have?” he suddenly asked.
Mable was Agnes, the eldest miss of the Jeffersons. She was also Sonora, the boxing champion who dominated the ring.
Just how many other identities did she have?
Mable opened her eyes. She had a defensive look in her indifferent eyes as she smiled sweetly and responded, “Take a guess.”
Blair said, “I'll be ready to listen whenever you want to tell me.”
Mable pursed her lips and did not say anything.
By the time they returned to Blair's villa, it was almost dawn.
The wound on Mable’s shoulder had reopened. She treated it again and took two more anti-inflammatory pills.
After breakfast, she was bored and turned on the TV. She happened to see Marissa and Dane's interview.
The reporter asked, “Ms. Jefferson, Mr. Snyder, there are rumors that your families’ companies will further cooperate after you get married. Can you slightly reveal which aspect of cooperation it'll be?”
The Jeffersons and the Snyders were family friends, to begin with, and they had always been in cooperation in the business world. Now that the two families were becoming in-laws, they would cooperate more closely than before.
There were even rumors that their companies might merge.
Marissa intimately held Dane's arm and smiled calmly. “I'm not too sure. My dad and Uncle Raymond are the ones discussing it.”
Dane spoke, “You'll find out on our wedding day.”
The reporter continued, “Mr. Snyder, some people on the Internet say you're marrying Ms. Marissa to fulfill the marriage contract with the Jeffersons, but in fact, the person you love is still the late Ms. Agnes.” Dane frowned when he heard Agnes’ name. “I've always treated Agnes as a younger sister. We were only engaged back then due to the pressure from our elders. I initially wanted to break off the engagement when she got older, but I didn’t expect her to have an unfortunate life...” Marissa lowered her head and looked as though it was a distressing memory for her. “My cousin was so pitiful.”
Dane looked at his fiancee beside him with deep affection. “My marriage with Riss doesn't involve any business interests. The person I love has always been her from the beginning to the end, and we're only getting married because we love each other.”
Mable stared gloomily at the cheating couple on TV. Her red lips were curled into a cold smile.
“Love each other, my *ss.
“It seems like Dane forgot how he pursued me in the past.’
Mable did not love Dane, but they were engaged, after all. However, based on what he said, it sounded as if she was the one who pursued him instead.
She could not swallow this anger!
She also wanted to see how much Dane and Marissa loved each other! Just as Mable was thinking about that, she heard a woman's voice coming from outside.
“I'm Leah, Master Blair's friend. Please tell him I'm waiting for him downstairs.”
Mable raised her eyebrow. “Leah?’
She remembered that was the name of Marissa'’s cousin.
Mable turned her head and saw the maid walking in with a woman who carried branded items and was dressed in fancy clothes.
She recognized at a glance that this was the woman she had knocked out at the Jefferson Residence that night.
This woman was probably the one who tried to drug Blair, but Mable ended up drinking the juice.
Mable felt even more irritated when she thought about what had happened in the Jefferson Residence that night.
Leah did not know Mable and did not seem to think that a woman would be living in Blair's villa.
When she took another look at Mable and saw that she was wearing pajamas, her face suddenly sank.
“Who... are you?” Leah pointed at Mable and questioned in a raised voice.
The maid who led Leah into the villa introduced, “This is Master Blair's wife.”
Leah gasped. “What?”
“She's Master Blair's secret wife?
“Didn't they say his wife is incredibly ugly?’
