Lost in Mr. Preston's Temptation novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14 Your Girlfriend Is a Terrible Person

“I was delayed in finding a parking space.” It was Donny who had come. “Ms. Rowan, do you fancy any of the clothes in this store? If not, let’s go look in the other stores. “

Ruby enduring the pain, shouted at Donny, “Don’t be fooled by her. Your girlfriend is a terrible filthy person!”

Donny didn’t even look at her and just said to Clara, “Ms. Rowan, let’s go.”

The two soon left the shop.

Seeing the two of them leaving with a swagger in their step, Ruby was angry enough to scream. She took out her phone and called the police station.

However, she learned that the deputy chief had gone on a business trip. The store’s surveillance camera was also not in operation, and since there was no substantial evidence, the police would not be able to prosecute Clara.

Was she just going to watch Clara get away with it?

The more Ruby thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She left her friends and went to ARCTIC.

Steve Lane was working on documents when he heard someone knock on the door. He looked up and asked, “Why are you here?”

“Steve.” Ruby walked over, sat directly on his lap, and said aggrievedly, “I just met Clara Rowan at the mall while shopping. I talked to her for a bit, and as a result...”

She took off the mask she had been wearing. Her face was still swollen even though she had put ice on it. She looked pitiful.

Steve furrowed his brow, “Is that from her slaps?”

Ruby nodded. “Didn’t I tell you that someone went to the police station to bail Clara? I found out that it was a chauffeur around 30 years old... Even though she lost her family, she still shouldn’t stoop to such depravity, don’t you say. “

“Because I was her friend, I gave money to her and told her not to do that kind of thing, so that her parents wouldn’t roll over in their graves. Not only did she not accept the money, but she also slapped me and even scolded me...”

Hearing Ruby describe the incident, a cold light flashed in Steve’s eyes.

In fact, he had known about and given tactic permission for Ruby to go to the hospital to find Clara’s grandmother and cause her to die from anger, and for her to send someone to bully Clara in the detention center.

Because the Rowan family owed him more than could be cleared by death, so he didn’t want Clara to have an easy life.

But now when he heard Ruby say that Clara was willing to stoop so low as to go out with an old man in order to leave the detention center, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Ruby felt the man’s grip on her shoulder suddenly strengthen.

She couldn’t help but cry out in pain, “Steve, you’re pinching me.”

“Apply ice to your face again and get rid of the swelling.” Steve released his hand, his tone very cold, “There will be an exclusive dinner party at 8 o’clock, all of those who will come are famous in the business world. Don’t embarrass me.”

“......okay.” Seeing that he wasn’t in a good mood, Ruby tactfully stopped complaining about her grievances.
