The Beauty and the Brain

Chapter 73

Andres pulled Dennis and said, “Don’t show off in front of us. You will just stay away from Marie for a

short time. Marie is in my house, and will she lose her way?”

Marie smiled, “I’m not going with you. You guys have fun, and I will stay here.”

Dennis left with Andres. Marie found a corner and sat there. She respected Andres, so she came

here.

“Ms. Spence.” A man’s cold voice sounded beside her.

Marie turned around and saw Clayton.

“Mr. Philemon.” She greeted Clayton politely.

“Ms. Spence, don’t you like this kind of party?” Clayton asked as he sat next to Marie.

Marie shook her head. “No. I don’t hate such a party.”

Clayton handed Marie a glass of wine and asked, “Can you drink it?”

Marie took the glass after hesitating for a moment. Then she said, “I can drink a little.”

“Ms. Spence, do you know what happened to the Whitney family?” Clayton asked.

Marie shook her head and said, “I don’t know. He didn’t say anything, and I also didn’t ask.”

Clayton glanced at Marie and did not say anything. He held a glass of wine and acted as he did at the

costume party a few years ago.

Marie sat on the sofa and took the fruit wine Clayton gave her.

Both of them didn’t say anything and just drank quietly. They looked at the crowd and were silent

for two minutes.

Clayton asked suddenly, “Are you Marie?”

Clayton still held a glass of wine and looked at the crowd. It seemed that he was asking about the

weather.

Marie paused and said, “Yes.”

Clayton turned to look at Marie and said, “Ms. Spence, you are so mysterious, and I can’t believe it. If

you dare to do anything to Dennis, I will kill you immediately even if you are the daughter of the Spence

family.”

Originally, she had always been very passive. When she stayed with Clayton, she always had a feeling

of fear. She was afraid that Clayton would recognize her and that he would recall the masquerade

party.

Even though she wore a mask, she couldn’t remember if she had taken off her mask in a corridor or

a room, or a bathroom.

As long as Clayton investigated this matter, he would get the list of parties. Then Clayton would know

that she came to that party with a false identity.

Then he would follow the clues and find the mysterious Rose. Then Clayton would find that she had

the same face as Rose.

However, Marie was not afraid of anything when she heard Clayton’s words. If Clayton wanted to

investigate her, he would do it soon or later. So she did not need to hide.

Marie looked at Clayton and said, “If you’re worried that I’ll harm him, you can continue to suspect me.

But I won’t be so good-tempered every time.”

Marie got up and walked to the yard. Andres and Darwin lived in this villa, and there was a big pool in

the yard. Several people were chatting outside.

“Marie!” A man called her.

Marie looked back and saw Darwin in a white suit with a rose in his chest pocket. He was a handsome

young man. Marie thought Jaime should be in such a state.

Darwin walked over and asked, “Are you still shooting Against the War?”

Marie nodded and said, “Yes.”

Darwin scratched his head and asked, “Did you delete the play of Jaime?”

Marie nodded, “We are deleting. What’s up?”

Darwin looked around and awkwardly scratched his head, “Well… Can I play Jaime again? You don’t

have to revise the script…”

Marie glanced at Darwin and said, “I don’t need you to act as Jaime. I believed when Mr. Shawn wrote

Against the War, Jaime was not a man who could not suffer pains in his heart.”

Darwin immediately said, “I don’t need a substitute! I’ll do it myself!”

Marie pressed her lips and said, “I don’t believe you.”

“I don’t need a substitute!” Darwin said.

“How about running a rickshaw?” Marie asked.

“No!” Darwin immediately said.

“How about doing manual labor?”

“No!”

“No!” Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“How about kneeling and being beaten?”

“Emm…” Darwin hesitated for a moment.

Marie pressed her lips and said, “I know. Darwin, you pay attention to your knees, and a substitute also

cares about his substitute. You are not willing to be beaten, and a substitute also did not want to bear

this. You are the young master of the Robert family, so are you superior to others?”

Darwin was helpless. “Isn’t it just an act? You can’t say that to me. I’m not so powerful, right?”

Marie shrugged his shoulders and said, “You worked in the entertainment industry. You are handsome,

but you don’t have any advantages.”

Marie turned around and left. Darwin shouted, “Hey, Marie! I can do it!”

Marie ignored Darwin, and Darwin was anxious. He rushed over and grabbed Marie’s shoulder, “I

said I don’t need a substitute. I can do it!”

Marie frowned and said, “Let me go!”

Darwin grabbed Marie tightly, “No! I will let you go if you agree with me!”

“Will you let me go?” Marie glared at Darwin.

“No!” Darwin glared back.

Marie grabbed Darwin’s wrist and turned around. With a beautiful action, Darwin fell into the water

directly and splashed water all over Marie’s body.

People heard the noise, and they all looked over. But they only saw Darwin, who was always arrogant,

climbed out of the pool. He was all wet, and there were only two petals of roses left in his pocket. His

hair was wet, looking extremely embarrassed.

He couldn’t help it, and regardless of whether he was still begging Marie to let him go back to the crew,

he pointed at her and shouted, “Are you a woman?”

All women around him were gentle since he was young. They all treated him kindly, and no woman had

treated him like this. She beat him, and he fell to the ground directly.

Marie pursed her lips. “I asked you to let me go,

Darwin was at a loss for words.

How could he know she was so powerful?

but you refused.”

When Nataly heard the noise, she ran over nervously and asked the maid to get the towel. She

looked at Marie and said, “Ms. Spence, you’re going too far. Darwin is young. Even if he had offended

you, you couldn’t push him into the water. Dennis and Andres have never done this to

him.”

Marie smiled and said, “Ms. Carmen, you are scolding me. What’s your identity? Even if Darwin is

young, he is an adult. I think I can talk to him. Will Dennis and Andres blame me for this? You can

complain to them now, and I won’t leave here.”

Nataly bit her lip. She looked embarrassed and kept silent. She took the towel and wiped Darwin’s hair.

Darwin dodged away and covered his head with the towel.

Clayton walked over and glanced at Marie. Marie said, “Mr. Philemon, do you also think that I

shouldn’t do that?”

Clayton shook his head. “Ms. Spence, you’re quite good at doing this.”

When Dennis and Andres rushed over, Andres was a little absent. He looked at Darwin and smiled,

“What happened?”

Darwin complained angrily, “Marie is simply a tomboy!”

Darwin chuckled and turned to look at Marie. “Marie, did you throw him into the water?”

Marie nodded, “Yes. He refused to let me go, I had no way but to throw him into water.”

Dennis took the towel, wiped the water stains on Marie’s body, and said, “How old are you? Why did

you fight with him? He is a man. What if he hurt you?”

Marie chuckled, “I am fine, and I am not hurt.”

Darwin was at a loss for words.

Darwin was the one who suffered pain. He was the victim. Why didn’t anyone care about him?

Nataly said softly, “Fortunately, Darwin can swim. Otherwise, if Ms. Spence made this joke, Darwin

would be hurt…”

Andres Robert walked over and comforted her, “It’s okay. Darwin is fine. Don’t worry.”

Darwin pursed his lips. He didn’t care about Nataly at all.

Marie was speechless. What did Nataly want to do?

“Dennis, as for Ms. Spence…” Nataly still wanted to say something else.

Marie tugged at Dennis’ collar and said, “I don’t want to stay here anymore. Let’s go.”

Dennis nodded, “Okay, let’s go.”

He took Marie’s hand, looked at Darwin, and said, “If you do it again, I will do something to you.”

Darwin was at a loss for words.

If Dennis fought with him, he should kill himself in advance.

Nataly looked at Dennis and Marie aggrievedly and said, “Dennis protected Ms. Spence so much.

Darwin…”

“What’s wrong with me? I’m fine!” Darwin carried the towel back to his room to take a shower.

Nataly turned and looked at Andres. But she saw the disappointment in his eyes.
