Chapter 26 Unreasonable
Quentin, who had been standing by silently, suddenly stepped forward and said to Leah coldly, "I didn't expect that your life is so miserable now, and you even steal things. I told you I would give you a villa and 50 million dollars back then, but you refused. Now you live a hard life, so you start to do this kind of disgraceful thing?"
As Leah heard Quentin's mocking words, her eyes darkened. She looked at Quentin unconvinced and said in a colder voice, "Why do you think I stole it? Do you have any evidence? Can I say that you stole my things if I put my things in your bag?"
Hearing that Leah was still quibbling, Maria became even angrier.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She defended Sharon. "Leah, what do you mean? Do you mean that Sharon put the necklace in your bag on purpose? You stole Sharon's necklace but refused to admit it, and you even slandered her. How could there be such a vicious woman like you in this world?"
Leah raised her eyebrows, and her expression remained calm.
She said, "I have no reason to steal her necklace."
"No reason?" Maria laughed angrily. "You have divorced Mr. Worthington now. According to my investigation, you don't have a good background. You must have had a hard life after leaving the Worthington family, right? So you stole Sharon's necklace, thinking of using it to live a good life. When the money runs out, you will find ways to sneak into other banquets and steal other people's things again. I have clearly seen your true nature, so stop pretending."
Thinking of hundreds of billions of assets in her family, Leah chuckled.
She said, "Who told you I don't have a good background? Who told you I live a miserable life? Please don't use your imagination to speculate about my life."
Sharon reached out and gently pulled Maria's arm.
Sharon said, "Maria, forget it. I found the necklace now, and I didn't lose anything. Don't embarrass Miss Wilson anymore."
Maria said, "Sharon, she doesn't feel ashamed to steal things. Why are you speaking for her? If we don't stop such bad behavior in time, she will do it again. We can't let her go easily. She has to apologize to you."
Sharon shook her head and said, "Forget it. Today is my birthday, and I don't want to cause trouble because of this necklace."
"You are too kind. If you don't want to force her, let me do it." After speaking, Maria looked at Leah.
She said, "Sharon has spoken for you all the time, but you still refuse to apologize to her. Do you still have any shame?"
Quentin said, "Leah, apologize to her immediately."
Hearing Quentin's commanding tone, Leah showed sarcasm in her eyes.
Leah
dn't steal anything.
Why should I apologize to her?
, who are you? What ri.net
do
have to ask me to apologize?"
As Quentin frowned, his face darkened.
He said, "You are unreasonable."
Leah rolled her eyes at him and said, "Am I unreasonable? I think you're a fool. You think you are smart, but you can't even see the truth of the matter."
Quentin lowered his eyes and didn't speak again. He just stared at Leah with cold eyes.
During the stalemate, Maria said sarcastically, "Leah, according to what you just said, you have a good background, don't you? Tell us what your background is, and I'd like to see if I will be frightened."
Before Leah could speak, the security captain, who had been sent by Quentin to look for Leah just now, suddenly came back.
He shouted with joy, "Miss Wilson, you are here! Mr. Worthington has been looking for you."
