Chapter 228

Author: Little Happiness
I suppressed the heaviness in my chest and said, "Whatever kind of people Gloria and Terence are doesn't matter anymore. You've already sent them abroad. They're not going to be a threat to you again."

Timothy's gaze slid to my face, and something sharp flickered in his eyes. "I sent them away, and you're upset about it?"

Heat flared instantly inside me. I stared right back at him. "Why do you care if I'm upset? When you cheated on me, did you ask how I felt? When you announced your relationship with Yasmin to the world, did you even think about how I felt? Last night when you abandoned me, did you bother asking if I was upset?"

Timothy's eyes darkened, and the air felt like it had frozen over.

I inhaled and swallowed back the words I had almost said. It wasn't like I ever had feelings for Terence, but I didn't think Timothy deserved that explanation.

…

Two days later, the doctor came by for rounds and said Timothy was fully healed and ready for discharge. He was going over some

    "Ruby! If you keep making things up, I'm really going to get mad!" I said angrily, looking at her.Ruby finally backed off and linked her arm with mine. "I'm sorry, okay? I was just imagining a plot from a feel-good story. If you don't like it, I won't do it again."We went to a different restaurant, and after lunch, we each headed home. As soon as I got back, I opened my laptop to update my novel. Mary had suggested splitting it into two parts—the production team planned to film the first part first, and if it performed well, they would then move on to the second.The first part had to be finished by the end of the year, or filming would be delayed. My schedule was tight. To keep up, I stayed at my computer late into the night and managed to write 20 thousand words in a single day.Maybe it was because the story was mostly inspired by my own experiences that I rarely ran out of ideas. Writing felt natural and came easily. Even Mary was impressed, saying I didn't seem like a beginn

    The moment Ruby and I heard Isaac's name, our ears perked up, and our hearts practically jumped out of our chests.We were waiting anxiously to hear whether Timothy would agree, but the waiter interrupted them by serving their food."Let's eat," Timothy said, not addressing her suggestion at all.Ruby and I exchanged a worried look and silently mouthed to each other to leave. We were only separated by a divider. If they finished eating before us, we would have to pass right by them on the way out.We stopped the audio recording and quietly stood to go.At that moment, the restaurant manager suddenly rushed over, overly attentive as he addressed Ruby, "Ms. Slater, are you and your friend unhappy with our service today? You haven't even placed an order, and you're already leaving."Ruby dared not speak for fear that Timothy would recognize her voice, and she kept giving the manager frantic looks.Unfortunately, the manager didn't seem to understand. He continued, "By the way, we m

    After all, even if I exposed Timothy and Yasmin, the worst they would suffer was public disgrace and ruined reputations. Their lives would go on, but if I really went that far, I'd lose my mother's life.I thought it through and said, "Timothy's company has invested enormous amounts of money and resources into developing that device over the years. There's no way they won't launch it. "He isn't someone who operates at a loss, so he's even more anxious than we are about when the device can hit the market."Ruby nodded. "It won't be too late to expose them then."I sighed. "Right now, I just want to get Daphne's paternity results as soon as possible. Only after confirming that she's my daughter will I have any right to fight Timothy for custody."Ruby looked at the time and said, "It's almost noon. Let's grab lunch first. As for Daphne's DNA sample, there's no need to rush. As long as she's still in Seavale, we'll eventually find a way to get a strand of her hair or a blood sample.

    Watching Yasmin scramble like that, I found it almost hilarious."Ms. Beech, there's no need to keep trying," I said, smiling faintly. "Those cards aren't just Timothy's. They're marital assets. Without my consent, you can't spend a single dime of it."Yasmin stared at me in shock. "What are you talking about?""It means that I filed for asset preservation, and everything under Timothy's name has been frozen. It's not just you. Even Timothy can't use his own money right now.""Josie, you—" Yasmin was so furious that she almost lost control right there in public. She forced herself to hold it together, though her voice was still shaking. "You're vicious!"I looked at her calmly. "Compared to you, I'm nothing."Ruby joined in, her smile bright. "Ms. Beech, don't tell me that you can't afford a bag without a man funding you. If you're not buying it, I'll take it."Yasmin clenched her jaw, but she ultimately didn't make the purchase. That alone made it clear that the Beech family wa

    Two days later, I was shopping with Ruby, and we happened to run into Yasmin buying a bag at a luxury boutique.It was a limited-edition design from that brand. There were only three nationwide, and each cost well over a million dollars. Even for a family like the Slaters, Ruby had to think twice about getting one.She admired the cream-colored bag again and again, but still didn't commit to buying it.Ever since Timothy sued Little Lights Kindergarten, the school had been drowning in negative press. Many parents had already pulled their kids out. After all, the parents belonged to the same social circle, and the Grants had always been trendsetters in Seavale.Once Timothy refused to let his own child attend the Slater family's kindergarten, everyone else took the hint. One after another, parents transferred their children elsewhere, and investors quickly cut ties with them as well.As a result, the Slaters' finances weren't what they used to be anymore.Ruby practically drooled

    Timothy finished speaking and leaned in with a force that didn't allow any refusal. I turned my head instinctively, but his lips brushed past my ear and landed coldly on my neck, full of anger."Let go of me!" I yelled as I pushed against his chest, my nails digging so hard into the fabric that I nearly tore through it.However, he didn't budge. Instead, his grip on the back of my neck only tightened. His breath hit my skin, sending an involuntary shiver through me.I let out a bitter laugh. "You deserved to be played by Jonathan. You can't even tell who your real enemy is, yet you still have the nerve to come at me like this?"Timothy abruptly released me, fury surging in his eyes. "What did you just say?""I called you stupid!"I stared straight into his eyes, my voice trembling with anger. "Your ward wasn't some restricted vault that only I could enter. Yasmin was there, constantly. Don't you know that? If I were you, I'd take a good look at what's been going on between her an
