Chapter 20:
Suddenly, the small meeting room fell into utter silence. Connor’s stare seemed to freeze everything around him, and the blue
veins on his forehead stood out, signaling his intense anger. Domenic was too frightened to even breathe
Yet, Marissa burst into laughter. “Hahaha...” She placed her fingertips over her red lips, laughing loudly and clearly reveling in
the moment. Domenic watched her, speechless, his mouth twitching slightly. Had he known she would be this rude, he would
have sent her away before making his report. He thought this village girl was incredibly bold
Catching Connor’s cold glare, Marissa gradually stopped her laughter. She yawned, stood up, and left the meeting room,
thoroughly amused by the situation. After a long silence, Connor abruptly ordered in a stern voice, “Find Doctor Riss!”
Connor was determined to uncover the true identity of this audacious doctor, Riss, who had dared to snub him so blatantly. “Yes,
sir,” Domenic responded, rushing to follow the order though he was inwardly complaining. The highly skilled doctor, Riss, was
very mysterious. People knew of Riss’ exceptional medical skills, yet nothing about their background, appearance, or even
gender. Finding Riss was like searching for a needle in a haystack!
In the days that followed, as Connor’s newly married wife, Marissa resided in Daniels Manor. Daniels Manor was expansive,
consisting of a main building and several auxiliary buildings. As the eldest family member, Arabella naturally occupied the main
building. Connor, as the head of the family, also lived there alongside Arabella. The other family members were allotted various

Considering his busy schedule and Arabella’s fragile health, to ensure her peace, Connor had another building for work and to
conduct smaller meetings. Marissa lived in Connor’s exclusive building these days. Apart from joining Arabella for chats and
meals in the main building, she spent the rest of her time there, familiarizing herself with the family’s intricate social structure.
Connor had provided her with detailed family profiles, and Cade was tasked with introducing her to the family and answering any
questions she might have
For Marissa, it was important not only to grasp the Daniels family dynamics but also to understand the intricacies of the Nash
family. Assuming the identity of Tiffany, she needed to familiarize herself with Tiffany’s personality and her place within the Nash
family to ensure her own disguise wasn’t compromised
Meanwhile, the online discussions about Denise and Derek persisted. Since Derek had been forced to take etiquette classes, he
had no chance to tell the world that his fiancée was not Denise. Online rumors spread that Denise’s family had left Adagend and
their current location was a mystery. The entire internet seemed engaged in tracking Denise’s movements, with many streamers
visiting her university to do livestreams. Thankfully, it was the summer break, and Denise was hidden away in Marissa’s rental
apartment, safely out of the public eye
Marissa hadn’t been home for days, and neither her parents nor Denise had reached out to her. They seemed indifferent to her
as long as their financial needs were met. Whenever they called Marissa, it was only to request money, something they seemed
to expect as a matter of course. Marissa didn’t have strong feelings for such a cold and greedy family. It didn’t matter to her
The reason she endured this treatment and stayed in touch with her family was that the Nash family in Adagend was her root.
Keeping this link was crucial so that the person she had been waiting for could locate her through it. Marissa was curious to learn
more about Tiffany, so she refrained from confronting Derek for now. Additionally, he was unlikely to cause any problems for at
least a week. She had learned that the etiquette course he was undergoing was very strict, and he was not permitted to have his
phone, making it almost like an imprisonment
Tiffany’s behavior confused Marissa. Tiffany had suddenly run away, abandoning her marriage to Connor. This happened so
unexpectedly that it was incomprehensible. Tiffany had put in significant effort to secure the engagement. Why would she run
away on the exact day she and Connor were meant to get married?
Neither the Daniels nor the Nash family could explain why Tiffany had disappeared; she seemed to have evaporated. This
caused Marissa to suspect that something terrible might have happened to Tiffany. After Marissa expressed her concerns, Cade
quickly presented a surveillance video. The footage distinctly showed Tiffany escaping alone on that day. She wasn’t forced, and
this dispelled Marissa’s suspicion
Cade explained, “According to our investigation, Tiffany probably escaped overseas. Her trail ends at the border. Her current
whereabouts are unknown.”
Marissa nodded and said, “Could you provide Tiffany’s personal details? I’d like to see all information from her childhood.”
Cade immediately retrieved a document and said, “Yes, I’ve prepared it for you.” Marissa set aside the other papers, picked up
Tiffany’s profile, and started examining it thoroughly. Upon completing her review, she was astonished. Tiffany was actually a
legend!
