Lost in Mr. Preston's Temptation

Chapter 14 Your Girlfriend Is a Terrible Person

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.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

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.

At 7:30 pm, a Maybach stopped at the door of The Mcerrin Hotel.

The Mcerrin Hotel was the only six-star hotel in J city, often hosting foreign guests, wine parties, and...

wedding banquets.

Before the car had arrived, Clara had already recognized that this was the hotel where she and Steve

had held their wedding banquet.

Memories of the past came flooding back, suffocating her.

She suppressed her emotions, pursed her lower lip, and asked Donny, “The dinner party that Mr.

Preston mentioned will be held here?”

That afternoon, on the way back after picking up clothes at the mall, Donny had suddenly received a

call. After hanging up, he had told Clara that Mr. Preston was going to attend a dinner party in the

evening and that he needed her to go with him.

Then Donny had gone with her to pick a dress, took her to do her hair, and then brought her here.

“Yes, banquet hall number three.” Donny handed an invitation letter to Clara. “Mr. Peterson is still busy

at the company. I will go to pick him up now. Ms. Rowan, you go on ahead.”

Banquet hall three... what a coincidence.

Clara smiled bitterly and took the invitation letter, “Okay, drive safely.”

Then she got out of the car and entered the hotel.

Arriving at the entrance of the banquet hall, thoughts of the wedding scene that year came to her

unbidden.

Kissing Steve Lane while everyone cheered, smiles full of happiness...

The waiter saw that Clara was shaking and that her face was pale, and couldn’t help but ask, “Miss, are

you okay?”

“I’m okay.” Clara shook her head.

She thought of her dead parents, and grandmother, and Steve Lane’s incomparably cold gaze. She

pursed her lips tightly and then walked into the banquet hall.

How happy and blessed she had felt when she married Steve, and now how full of hate she was!

It was a big drinking party and not at all lively.

During this period of time, Clara had lost a lot of weight, but coming from a wealthy family her

temperament was already excellent. With a good foundation and wearing a long and black open back

kick pleat dress she drew the attention of everyone.

The light of the banquet hall hit her beautiful shoulders and her long hanging lashes, portraying the look

of a delicate and touching lady.

She stood there quietly, her beauty touching those around her.

The men present were unable to stare, and couldn’t help muttering, “So beautiful...”

“What’s the use of being beautiful?! “ A woman said sarcastically. “If you’re not satisfied with being

married and have affairs with other men?! “

“Exactly! How did the Rowan family raise such a daughter?!”
