Can't stop loving you

Chapter 128 The Humiliation From Yesenia

When Viola woke up in the morning, she found that Ann had put a note on the fridge and said that he

had gone to school.

On the table, there were two sandwiches and two cups of milk made by Ann. A warm current coursed

through Viola's heart.

When she passed by the bathroom, she saw that the door of it was closed and her stepmother was

talking in a faint voice. It seemed that she was talking to someone on the phone.

She tiptoed, leaned against the door and listened carefully——

"Mr. Huang, after this is done, you have to promise me to pay off with the bride price. You promised me

that you would let my son go, you can't go back on your word." Her stepmother smiled apologetically

and her voice was very low. She seemed to have heard some good news and was even more humble.

"Okay, okay, I will surely do it well for you."

Hearing this, a bad idea came to mind.

She waited at the door. When her stepmother opened it and saw her, she staggered back a few steps,

looking frightened. "What are you doing here! It's so scary! "

Her stepmother complained as she patted her chest.

Hands folded over her chest, Viola looked her up and down. After nearly infuriated by her rude manner,

she came straight to the point, "I heard everything you said on the phone. What did that bastard,

Harrison Shen do?"

Harrison Shen, her brother with a different father and a different mother.

Her stepmother's eyes turned red, and she seemed to have been told what was on her mind. She was

so discouraged as if she had been drained of all her strength. She walked to the sofa and sat down,

choking with sobs, "You don't know that your brother has been gambling very much in the past year,

and he has borrowed a lot of usury from others. Now THEY came to us and forced us to pay back."

Startled, she turned her back almost out of anger, "How much does he owe?"

"He didn't owe much in the beginning. But now he have owed more than six million, as interests are

rolling." Stepmother pounded her thigh and showed her grief stricken face.

Six million!

The moment she heard Simon's words, a wave of dizziness swept over her. She almost fainted.

She leaned against the wall, slowly moved to the opposite sofa and sat down, pouring a cup of cold

water to calm down.

"Two days ago, Mr. Huang, the boss of usury company..." The stepmother had been crying and telling

the whole story to her.

Mr. Huang, the boss of that usury company, came back with five hooligans. He grabbed Harrison

Shen's hand and threatened him.

When Mr. Huang saw in the photo of the photo of the whole family that Viola was smiling like a flower,

he was surprised to let them go. He proposed that as long as they married, all the money Harrison

Shen owed would be regarded as the bride price.

From the beginning to the end of the story, Viola's face was changing constantly. She understood why

her stepmother forced her to marry that rich guy.

She suddenly stood up with her hands on the sofa and said angrily, "This is too much! Usury is illegal.

I'll call the police! "

As soon as she took action, her stepmother clung to her like clutching at a life-saving straw. She knelt

on both knees and cried, "You can't call the police! Viola, help me. Your brother is in their hands. If I call

the police, my only son will be gone. I would rather die! "

Her stepmother wiped her tears and her face crumpled up. She stood up and wanted to run to the

balcony.

Upon seeing this, she quickly grabbed her arm and stopped her. She was so anxious that she kept

saying, "Fine, fine. I won't call the police. Don't act recklessly!"

"Your father is so worried about this that he can't swallow any food. Will you help him?" The stepmother

grabbed her shoulders and shook them frantically.

Stepmother shook Viola's head, which made her dizzy and want to throw up. She helplessly nodded,

"I'll help you. I just want to raise money. I can't help you with getting married."

"Raise money?" Her stepmother's voice suddenly became sarcastic. "How can you take out so much

money! Are you lying to me? "

Upon hearing what the stepmother said, a lump came into Viola's throat. She didn't know what to say.

But as the words were on the tip of her tongue, she sensed danger and corrected herself, "Just give

me some time. For the sake of my father, I won't lie to you."

Hearing that, her stepmother felt relieved and let go of her. A slight sigh of relief escaped from her

chest.

All of a sudden, she thought of the necklace, which was given by Maynard. She turned around, ran into

the room and searched for a cupboard at the head of the bed. However, she didn't find it. Then she

turned around and opened the closet. Finally, she saw the necklace in an iron box.

After putting the necklace into her bag, she opened the door and ran out when her stepmother entered

her room.

Thirty minutes later, Viola arrived at a large jewelry store and asked for selling the woman who wore

business wear.

"This necklace is warm. It looks..." The saleswoman was wearing a pair of white gloves and carefully

took them over for inspection.

It must be true as Viola was about to explain. Suddenly, they heard the crisp sound of high heels

stepping on the floor.

"Wow, the necklace is the apple of everyone's eye."

When she heard this strange female voice, she stiffened and lowered her head trying to hide her

presence.

"Miss Lu, are you interested?" The shop assistant enthusiastically handed over the necklace.

Glancing at Viola and ignoring the saleswoman's flattery, Yesenia arrogantly came to her and said,

"How could you sell a necklace, poor girl?"

Viola clenched her fists and then slowly loosened, poker faced. "Does it have anything to do with you?"

All of a sudden, Yesenia grabbed the necklace from her. She looked away as if she had seen

something dirty. "It's fake, isn't it?"

Biting her lower lip, Viola reached out for the necklace, but she didn't see it. She took a deep breath

and said, "We will know if it's true or false."

"To see if it's true or not?" Hearing her words, Yesenia sneered. He threw the necklace to her face and Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

continued, "You can only wear a fake one."

There was pain on Viola's face. She touched her hand and there was a drop of blood on it. She rushed

to Yesenia and said angrily, "I can't bear it if I don't beat her back."

Hearing her words, Yesenia winked at the female clerk. The female clerk immediately understood what

she meant. She insisted on keeping Viola away from her.

"You are running a jewelry store, not a garbage bin. Don't take everything back." Glancing at her from a

height, with her long hair tossed up, Yesenia looked contemptuous. "I don't think a woman of high

status like me would wear something like that that that poor people had ever worn. It's dirty!"

Upon hearing this, Viola was so angry that she tried her best to struggle, but in the end, she was

thrown out by the security guard of the jewelry store with the necklace.

With the necklace in her hand, Viola stood up from the ground. She was so angry that she ignored the

stares of the people around her and shouted, "Stop humiliating me!"

The whole afternoon, she went to every store to buy that necklace, but none of them took it.
