Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Marianne looks at the time on the big clock in the dining room, and then she checks the time on her phone. It is the same time, not a minute less. It is half past six in the evening.
“Where is he? How come he hasn’t arrived yet?” she mumbles.
Not long ago she had instructed Lita to give them dinner when Francois arrived. Her husband has never failed to notify them if he will not be present for the evening meal. Or one of his staff would have called them by now.
“Alright, tell them to serve mine first,” she told Lita, who had been waiting with her in the dining room. She looked at her phone again, and decided to call Lana, Francois’ secretary on weekdays. Da

“Is that John’s car?” asked Marianne. She is seated next to the grand old chair that Francois’ used whenever he works on his desk. Marianne looks closely at the screen, she enlarges it and scrutinises its details. “It is John’s car! What is he doing so early in the morning here?” she said, looking at Lita.Lita looks at the screen and to Marianne. Then Marianne said “Oh John is one of Francois’ best friends. You probably know him. Have you heard of Dr John Reeds? He is quite famous. He wrote some books and he often appears on tele.” She sees Lita’s face that says ‘I’ve no idea who that is’ and she laughed.&n
Purest Hearts Chapter 91 I'm Not Kenny Jones
Marianne has seated herself near the fireplace, waiting for John's arrival. She looks outside at the purely white snow that covers the grounds. It reminded her when she was young. When she was still the young boy Kenny Jones. He and Steven would play for a long time outside. They were both athletic that they would like to compete on who would be the first on everything. 'Those were the good times,' she thought.She sees Lita coming in. "Lita, I heard that this is your first time to experience snow. Is that right? Don't you get snow in your country?"Lita made a short laugh. "Yes. Although I live in the highland part where we get frosted grounds occasionally, snow has never occurred there. So, this is quite an experience for me."Marianne smiled at her. "Hav

Chief Inspector Davies squints his eyes as he looks at John and then says “Let me guess, her doctor happens to be you.”John just smiles at Davies.“Very well, let’s wait for Francois’, shall we?” said Davies.John extends his hands to the chief inspector and says “I certainly agree, Chief Inspector Davies.”After the policeman is gone, Marianne looks straight at John.“My dear doctor, care to explain to me what was that all about?”
Purest Hearts Chapter 93 Would anyone believe me if I say I'm Kenny?
Marianne could not answer John. She knows that she has been behaving weirdly to them, and she was glad that they just let her be. She thought of Carl who had sometimes looked at her, like he wanted to say or ask something but had stopped himself. ‘How frustrated he must have been… and probably it’s not just him. Maybe even Francois and the rest. I know that they have been really patient with me. Could this be the day that I have to tell them who I really am? To tell them that I am actually Kenny Jones? … No, no one would have believed me. Even if I would give them some proof, it would just backfire negatively on me. Who would believe anyone when they say that ‘actually I am not this person, I am just using her body’. Or even worse by saying ‘I was actually that dead man in the news, but now I have taken over this woman’s body. I would never believe anyone who would say something like that before. How w

“Let’s go to the police station!” announced Marianne, looking at John.“Erm... let me just make some phone calls,” answered John.Marianne squinted her eyes as if she remembered something, and then she said “Wait! John, before anything else, would you explain to me as to why you are here? And where is Francois? How come he didn’t tell me himself that he wanted me to go to the police station? What else is there that you are not telling me?”“Whoa… that is a lot of questions, my lady. But first, let me make a call to let them know that you had agreed to go,” said John.

At the police station, Marianne had given her cooperation to the police. The solicitors had already left. Marianne, John, and Lucas and his team are still there. She saw Davies coming towards them. She had asked one of the officers that she wanted to talk to him.“Chief Inspector Davies, thank you for seeing us,” she said.“No problem at all. How may I help you Lady Marianne?” asked Davies.“I was wondering, now that Kenny Jones is somehow involved in the Bullswood case, would there be an investigation for his death?” she asked.Davies looked at her for

“Who would have done that?” Marianne looks at Michael. She hoped that they would sort out those reporters soon.“We are still looking into it. I was on my way here when I received a call from Leonna. She couldn’t get a hold of you nor John so she called me. She said that the hallways towards the vip building were crowded by them.So I told her to get Florence ready. Then I put Florence on immediate discharge. I’m just glad that they were out there on time, as apparently after they had left more had come. Now, they are gathering outside the gate,” explained Michael.“Thanks, Michael. So both of them are inside?” asked Marianne.

Despite looking calmly after hearing what Florence had just said, Marianne knows that Leonna is just pretending. She saw Leonna’s uneasiness although it was masked out very quickly. Florence is not fully recovered yet and is still under observation. ‘Even I feel anxious. How long are we going to be like this in front of her?’ thought Marianne.“I’m nothing compared with my friends. I am like a rogue if I line up with them,” said Michael, chuckling. He had to say something to avoid suspicion as Marianne and Leonna had gone quiet.Marianne smiles at Michael, admiring his quick wits. “Aunt Florence, that is indeed, correct. Don’t be fooled with his gentlemanly manner, like he said he is just a rogue.” Marianne turned to Leon

Francois lightly touches his neck. His thoughts were on last night, on how he got those marks. He frowned.There was an uncertain look on Francois’ face that made Marianne worries. She wants to reach out to him. ‘I wonder what has happened. This is the first time that I have ever seen him look like this. He seems unsure. He is certainly not himself. Is he perhaps ill?’ thought Marianne, more concerned and with determination to find out what the mark is on his neck. Francois sees Marianne slowly getting up off her chair. He became stiff as he felt her nearness. He would have stepped backwards if he could, but he felt pinned to his spot. He could not move. Moreso when his nostrils were hit with her fragrance. Marianne steadies herself, and then takes a closer look at his neck. “Oh, it’s more than I thought, and it looks bad!” she exclaimed, showing a displeased look as she inspected the marks on his neck. Her eyes focused on the worst part. ‘I’m sure I’ve seen something like this befo

The next day, the ringing of her phone made Marianne groan as she grabbed her phone. She squinted her eyes at the clock table. ‘It’s past 7, already!?’ “Hello, Marianne! Oh I’m so sorry, did I just wake you up? I only called cause I thought you would be awake by now,” said Annie, as she listened to the moaning sound of her friend from the other line. “Hey… Annie. No, no it’s okay. I’m actually glad that you called. I think my alarm clock is not working. I don’t know how long I would sleep if you didn’t call. You saved me from facing another wrath from Mrs Smith.” “Are you still not getting along? I think that’s been a while now, don’t you think?

Realising that Francois would not help her, that she has to deal with Steven herself. She turns to face Steven. She sees his smiling face. The face that Kenny had once liked. She looks closely and studies his face. ‘Hmm he does have a handsome face but he is nothing compared to Francois. Not even to John, Michael and Carl… Why the heck did I think before that he is above all men when it comes to looks? Gah… And if you look more closely… there are blackheads on his nose! What a turn off! Oh, there are even more lines under his eyes and some pigmentation on his skin. He has become old now.”The scrutinising ways of Marianne made Steven uncomfortable. He looks at Francois, but he seems to be unaware of what his wife is doing or does not care. He cleared his throat. “Uhm, Lady Marianne.”

Sarah’s watchful eyes become sharp as she stares at Marianne. “You know, I had years of study and practice to know when someone is lying. And right now, your face is telling me differently than earlier.” Sarah moves closer to Marianne. She bends down, and with her face close to Marianne, she looks straight into Marianne’s eyes. “So, what are you hiding? What are you guilty of?” said Sarah, with a very intimidating tone.Marianne catches her breath, and on guard of what the woman in front of her is going to do next. ‘Oh My God! I hope she is not going to hit me!’ she thought. She quickly side glances to where Lana is. She sees her talking on the phone as Lana meets her eyes very briefly. ‘I hope she called Francois. I hope it’s him on the other line,’ prayed Marianne.

Sarah gives Marianne a quizzing look because of her reaction. Aware of her carelessness, Marianne says to her “Well, I’ve not met Kenny before so I don’t really know what he’s like, but you said he is not one to just take his own life. It’s also what others say about him. So, I believe you. And thank you for telling me about the study under Dr Keis. I’ll see if I can find some useful information from his old stuff. But… I’m sure this is not the important thing that you wanted to tell me for seeking me here.”Sarah nodded. “Well, after you left that day. I had an uncomfortable feeling like I had missed something. I couldn’t sleep. So, that night I went to check on Kenny's body again. At first, everything was the same as how I'd written it on the report. But when I checked the ligature on his neck, I found a very thin dark
Purest Hearts Chapter 140 Positivity
Returning to their table, Marianne gives Francois a hateful accusation look of a 'How could you!?' flaring in her eyes. Anyone who would look at Marianne’s face would be able to tell how angry she is, but Francois did not seem to take any notice of her state. His relaxed manner of how he is enjoying himself made Marianne more annoyed at him. ‘Hateful Bastard!’ she thought as she threw him one more hateful glance. To put her composure back, Marianne tries to think of positive thoughts. ‘Good thing everyone wasn’t so brazen to accept his abrupt invitation. Even Steven just gave him a salute. Hopefully no one will come as I don’t want to prepare an abrupt party... Oh, wait! Does Francois want me to throw a party for Carl?’ The thought made Marianne look alarmed and suddenly feeling guilty that it never occurred to her to throw a party for Carl.&nb

Whatever was on Dr Eli’s face expression is now gone. She is now wearing her usual friendly smiles. She gets up and greets Francois and Marianne. “Hello. I didn’t expect to see you both here," she said, smilingly. Marianne thought that she detected nervousness in her voice. She smiles back at Dr Eli. The question that she wanted to ask earlier (to ask her why she had left her profession), she does not dare to ask anymore. Marianne secretly observes Dr Eli. ‘I’m sure I wasn’t mistaken when she looked at me. There was hatred in her eyes which was directed at me. But why…? I’ve known her before, and she is not to hold grudges. Perhaps she has mistaken me for someone else? Hmm… no, I’m with Francois so she knows who I am. So, why does she hate me?... Ah... this feels worse than when Leonna was giving me those hateful stares with her matching acid tongue. But, at least with Leonna, I know why sh

Marianne tries to sort out her thoughts by accepting her sad fate tonight. Yet, she still cannot let go of the niggling feeling inside her. With a disregard to modesty, she said “I have to say this for the peace of my mind. You know, I thought that this was going to be a ‘date’. A proper date. I did not expect it to be like this. And I was really ecstatic then to the idea that I am going out on a date with you. In fact, I even requested help from the ladies which I kinda regret as they have different ideas. They only caused me more stress, and not to mention my extended endurance for tolerating the constant nagging of Mrs Smith. I do feel sorry for myself.” Then, Marianne thought that her words came out wrong that it had made her look more pathetic than she wanted it to be. So, to justify her words, she said “Well, you know that I have been cooped up inside the castle most of the time, so a da

“Cole is one of those narcissistic people, but he is also intelligent. He knows how to placate himself and bide his time to get what he wants. He would have not felt remorse after killing his best friend. However, the admiration or he might have thought that was more like a Godlike idolisation from Kenny, he doesn’t get it anymore.” Marianne continuously stares at Francois. “I’ve had this thought of what Kenny's situation was, but after you said it… Although, a tiny bit inside me doesn’t want to admit it, still I have to accept the fact that I was manipulated. I was a doctor, Kenny was an exemplary doctor. He should have known. Kenny should have seen the signs.” Marianne covers her face, feeling dejected. Francois pats her back. “You were very young then, and you have lost your parents. It’s understa
