Chapter 18 You Are Quite Bold
Dennis lifted his gaze, giving Marie a nonchalant glance.
For some unknown reason, just with this one glance, Marie could clearly sense that Dennis was not
very happy.
Is it because she said she wants to be a star that you’re unhappy?
The mysterious man.
Dennis just glanced at her once and never looked at her directly again, continuing to chat with
Asher.
Asher and Dennis’s father had a good relationship, which is why Dennis took time out of his busy
schedule to come to Las Vegas to celebrate Asher’s birthday.
Currently, the Spence family seems to be interested in expanding to New York, and they will rely
heavily on the support of the Whitney family. There will be many opportunities for collaboration
between the two families in the future.
Before they knew it, they had been chatting until evening. Asher invited Dennis to stay for dinner at the
Spence Estate. It was then that Dennis looked up at Marie again, nodded, and agreed.
At the Spence Estate, the kitchen prepared all of Asher’s favorite dishes. Dennis didn’t seem to be a
picky eater, as he would take a few bites of whatever was served. On the other hand, Marie, who was
trying to lose weight, only ate a little bit of everything while sitting nearby.
“Is Marie not having a good appetite?” Dennis suddenly asked.
“Don’t mind her, she’s trying to lose weight and doesn’t eat properly all day,” Asher said with a
smile.
With a tone of reproach, yet filled with affection, Marie has been doing a great job of pampering Asher
these days.
“Losing weight still requires eating, your health is important,” Dennis added.
“Thank you for your concern, Mr. Whitney,” Marie said dryly.
Dennis furrowed his brow. Just a few days ago, people were casually calling him Dennis, but today,
they had suddenly started addressing him as Mr. Whitney.
This little girl has quite a temper.
At the dining table, only Dennis and Asher were chatting, while Marie sat quietly on the side without
uttering a word. novelbin
After dinner, Dennis said goodbye to Asher. Asher replied, “I’m getting old. Marie, please help your

grandpa and walk Dennis out.”
Reluctantly, Marie stood up and escorted Dennis to the entrance of the Spence mansion. As soon as
they reached the door, she turned around, ready to leave.
“Come back,” Dennis said.
Marie turned around and asked, “Is there anything else, Mr. Whitney?”
Dennis approached step by step, his aura incredibly powerful. Marie retreated step by step, until
she found herself backed against the wall. Dennis closed in on her, his refreshing scent enveloping her.
In a deep, magnetic voice, the man asked, “Are you angry?”
“No, why would I, a high school student, be upset with Mr. Whitney?” Marie said.
“Do you want to be a star?” Dennis asked again.
“Is Mr. Whitney really concerned about my career planning?” Marie asked.
“You can’t become a star,” Dennis said.
“Why do you have the right to deny me like this?” Marie said resentfully.
“Considering I saved you from that wretched alley, it’s pathetic that the Spence family could do this
to you. The chaotic entertainment industry will eat you alive, leaving nothing but bones!” Dennis
said mockingly.
The incident that took place in that small alley was the greatest humiliation Marie had experienced
since her rebirth. It constantly reminded her that she was not Rose.
She was weak and fragile, easily trampled upon!
It was like the dying Rose, covered in scars and with her tendons severed. No matter how many
times she dreamt of returning to midnight, she could never save Mike. All she could do was watch
helplessly as he died before her eyes.
“Even if there’s nothing left but bones, they’re still my bones! Don’t worry, Mr. Whitney!” Marie
exclaimed loudly.
She wasn’t Olive, nor was she one of those Las Vegas socialites who sought Dennis’s favor.
Therefore, she had no need to endure Dennis’s scolding.
She is Rose, the assassin who seeks only vengeance. To achieve her goal, she needs immense
power
and a vast fortune!
Dennis lifted his hand and pinched Marie’s chin, sneering, “Provoking me? Do you know what
happened to the last person who provoked me?”
For the first time, he became angry with a young girl.

“Mr. Whitney can’t possibly kill me, can he?” Marie’s chin hurt from being pinched, but she still
refused to back down.
“Marie, you’re really brave!” Dennis exclaimed.
“Please, don’t be concerned, Mr. Whitney!” Marie said, as a young lady.
Dennis sneered, let go of her, and said, “You’re right, why should I care about such a trivial matter?”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Marie’s reaction, they turned around and got into the
car.
Marie could vaguely see the man sitting upright in the back seat of the car, as the luxurious Rolls-
Royce drove away without raising a speck of dust. Yet, inexplicably, it left Marie breathless.
It was unclear whether it was due to the inexplicable argument between the two just now, or Dennis’s
remark, “Why bother about such trivial matters?”
She shook her head in annoyance. Dennis was indeed just like the rumors said – moody and
unpredictable. It was best to keep her distance from such a man.
She turned around and returned to the Spence Estate.
