Derrick Sebastian another beating before standing up. “Go find Eddie.”

“I don’t want to!”

Sebastian immediately clung to Derrick’s long leg again. “I swear, I’m innocent!”

“Innocent? Or just not smart enough?”

Sebastian muttered, “Yeah… that too.”

“Then go to Milbar Desert and train your

brain.”

“What kind of brain training can you do in a desert? I’m not going!”

That hellhole–just hearing it barely rained there was enough to know how bone–dry it was. I’d have to be brain–dead to go there.

“Abraham trains people there,” Derrick said flatly. “Are you questioning that place?”

“I wouldn’t dare!”

Who dared question Abraham’s orders?

“Then-”

“I said no!”

Sebastian shook his head violently. No matter what Derrick said, he wasn’t going to that cursed place.

In the end, with tears and desperate pleading, Sebastian managed to escape punishment- barely.

When Derrick returned to the presidential suite, Marie was still at the doorway, arms crossed, standing exactly as before.

Derrick let out a low hiss and shrugged.

“Can you believe what that kid just pulled?”

He walked over and reached to wrap an arm around her shoulders.

But Marie stepped aside, dodging him; she had no intention of letting him pull her into his

arms.

“You’re still mad?” he asked.

Marie shot him a look of pure displeasure, saying nothing.

Derrick felt helpless; for once, he regretted letting Sebastian walk away. He should’ve just twisted the kid’s head off then and there.

He gently pulled Marie against him. “Alright, sweetheart, don’t be mad anymore, hmm?”

Marie snorted. “That’s the same line you used to trick me into seeing a doctor.”

Derrick went quiet.

Right then, he wanted nothing more than to slap Sebastian twice–and himself twice more.

Because truthfully, even he hadn’t noticed the “doctor” was a fraud…

Marie was furious, and it took Derrick forever to soothe her temper. Only after a long while did she finally calm down–and only because he promised to take her out for soup that night.

Over in Falvaria, when Stella heard Marie finish telling the story over the phone, she sat stunned for a long moment.

Pregnancy had already made her reactions a little slower; now, hearing all this, her brain just buzzed.

“You mean Derrick and Sebastian actually brought in a lunatic and called him your psychiatrist?”

Marie sighed weakly. “That’s exactly what I’m saying. Those two brothers are out of their damn minds.”

Her voice was drained, as if she’d been completely beaten down by their stunt.

Who wouldn’t be? A mental patient showing up as your therapist―anyone would break down from that.

Stella sucked in a sharp breath. “Didn’t I say Derrick was unreliable? And my brother swore he wasn’t.”

Unreliable? This wasn’t just unreliable–it was next–level disaster.

Marie groaned. “I was so pissed, I actually fought him.”

“What about Derrick? Didn’t you beat him too?”

“I didn’t have the strength!”

She’d been so enraged she didn’t even have the energy left to hit him. If that wasn’t maddening,

what was?

At the time, she’d been ready to slice Derrick into a thousand pieces.

“And Sebastian?” Stella asked. “He should’ve been shipped off to the North Pole to stare at penguins! Maybe then the cold would clear his foggy brain.”

“Don’t even mention him!” Marie snapped.

Just saying his name made her want to hit someone all over again.

“Then why were you even seeing a psychiatrist?” Stella asked.

That was the real question.

The moment Stella heard “psychiatrist,” it was the first thing she’d wanted to ask; but Derrick and Sebastian’s horror show had been too shocking, distracting her with follow–ups.

“Why else?” Marie muttered. “I’ve been dealing with Tessa’s situation and Victor’s side of things. The pressure’s been insane. Lately I’ve been throwing up.”

“Stress gastritis?”
