Chapter 79
Seeing Tina, Pearl barked scornfully, “I knew it, Tina. Someone like you deserves to work in a shabby place like this! Hahaha! I’ll smash everything here! Let’s see if anyone’s willing to hire you anymore!” .
Accompanying Pearl were several thugs getting ready to destroy the shop. Tina’s eyes burned as she shouted angrily, “Stop it, Pearl! That’s enough!”
“What are you gonna do about it, huh?” Pearl shot Tina a look of loathing, her tone dripping with venom. “I told you, I’ll destroy your life! This is the price for ruining my family!”
Tina threw herself at Pearl, but Pearl, who had been expecting this, managed to dodge.
Her cronies then gave Tina a hard kick in the stomach, sending her crashing to the ground. Pearl cackled as she looked at the injured Tina, pleased. “On second thought, I’m gonna torture you slowly and make your life even more miserable! Today’s just the beginning. I promise, I’ll ruin you forever!”
Pearl then left with her cronies. Just then, Tina’s superior appeared. He pointed his fingers at her as he exploded. “This is all your fault! You caused all this to happen! You have to pay for all the damages!” Tina’s face went as white as paper. ‘He’s not wrong… Nothing would have happened if it weren’t for me!!
“I promise to pay, but I’m broke right now,” Tina muttered timidly, her voice sinking into silence.
“Broke? Then I’ll send you to jail!” the boss shouted, livid. “I don’t care who, but go borrow money from anyone!”
Tina opened her phone and scanned her contacts, Helpless, she answered softly, “I really don’t have anyone…”
Pearl had been bullying her since day one, and the fact that she was an orphan contributed to her small social circle.
Now that she was in trouble, who would care to help?
“I don’t care! Call someone, now!” he roared through gritted teeth. “Otherwise, I’ll send you to a brothel!”
Out of desperation, Tina made her calls. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
As expected, everyone hung up the second Tina mentioned about wanting to borrow money.
Suddenly, Tina saw a familiar number.
She didn’t save that number, but she knew that it belonged to Samuel.
“What are you waiting for? Call now!” Tina took a deep breath. Mustering her courage, she dialed the number.
Then again, he must’ve blocked my number since he hates me so much!’
Contrary to expectations, the call went through. For a second, Tina thought she dialed the wrong number. How was it possible for Samuel to pick up her call?
However, what Tina heard was a woman’s voice.
“Hello?”
Tina couldn’t recognize it. Hesitant, she said, “Hi, I’m Tina…” “Oh, Tina. I’m Cindy. Why are you calling Samuel this late at night?” Tina was shocked. This was indeed Samuel’s phone, but the one who picked up was Cindy instead.
A strange feeling pricked her heart. These two must be living together. Otherwise, Cindy wouldn’t be picking up Samuel’s phone’.
“Cindy, I actually wanted to…” “Sorry, Tina, but Samuel’s just coming out of the bath. I have to go.”
