Immediately, everyone’s eyes fell on Nicolas.

Nicolas pressed his dry lips together. Of course, he also wanted to make a big deal into a small one and then let it disappear quietly.

But when his gaze met Zoya’s again, he began. “Zoya, maybe we should just-”

“Just let it go, treat it as a misunderstanding?” Zoya raised an eyebrow. “Nicolas, do you expect me to go along with that?”

Zoya’s mocking look made his throat feel clogged; the rest of the words simply would not come out.

Eowyn erupted in furious curses. “Nicolas, your mother and sister treated Zoya like this and you want to call it a misunderstanding? If Zoya hadn’t been able to defend herself, don’t you know what would have happened to her next?”

Nicolas flushed red from the scolding. Soon, police arrived.

Violette trembled with terror, sobbing, “I don’t want to go to the police station. I don’t want to. Nicolas, save me. I don’t want to go to jail.”

Fear finally showed on Anica’s face. She grabbed Nicolas and cried, “Nicolas, don’t let these police take Violette and me.”

Nicolas looked at Zoya with an anguished expression. “Zoya, my mother is old, and Violette is still young. Maybe we should

Eowyn scoffed, “How old is your sister supposed to be, ‘still young‘? And your mother certainly didn’t look old when she tried to hit Zoya just now.”

Nicolas ignored Eowyn’s mockery and said to Zoya, “This is a Mayer family matter. What do you think?”

“A family matter?” Zoya watched the man before her and felt her heart sink even lower.

Zoya thought, ‘What am I still expecting from him? Expecting that after seeing what happened in the room he will finally stand with me, at least once, to get me some justice?‘

“But there is none. I face nothing but disappointment after disappointment.’

Maybe Zoya had been disappointed so many times that now her heart did not ache; instead she felt, ‘so it was as I thought.’

“You never treated me like family, so how can this be a family matter?” Zoya refused.

“You’re my wife. How could we not treat you like family?” Nicolas retorted.

“Wife?” Hearing that word made Zoya laugh inwardly. “Nicolas, if the person treated this way today had been Jasmine, would you still say that?”

Hearing that, Nicolas faltered.

Jasmine interjected, “If it were me, I certainly wouldn’t put Nicolas in such a bind. Zoya, you haven’t suffered any serious injury. Why be so aggressive?”

“Then I hope, Miss Ingram, if one day you really run into something like this, you’ll be able to live up to your words,” Zoya shot back bluntly.

“You’re–Jasmine glared at Zoya.

“Enough. Save it for the police station,” an officer said. The policemen hauled away the two groaning men from the floor and

moved to take Anica and Violette into custody,

As a pair of handcuffs hovered over Violette’s wrist, she panicked even more.

“I’m innocent, it’s not me… not me…” Violette wailed. Seeing Nicolas had no intention of stopping the police, she suddenly lunged forward and grabbed Jasmine. “Jasmine, help me. Mom and I only did this for you, and you knew about everything today.”

When Nicolas heard that, he froze. “Jasmine, you-”

Instantly, Jasmine’s face turned flustered. “How is this my doing? I knew nothing.”

You did know. You said not giving Zoya that money wasn’t impossible. Otherwise why would Mom and I do this?” Violette

insisted.

“Yeah, I’m fine. Let’s go to the police station to give the statement first,” Zoya answered. Her body could make it.

Zoya turned. Wren’s handsome face met her eyes. Actually, it really was no coincidence; she had come specifically to return.

the clothes to Wren.

Only now the clothes she wanted to return were still in Eowyn’s car.

“Ms. Lucero, are you waiting for someone?” Wren asked.

“Yes. I’m waiting for a friend to drive me to the police station,” Zoya said. Since Wren was attending the party, he already knew what had happened.

“Then let me give you a ride,” Wren offered.

Zoya blinked, and before she could react a silver–gray Maybach pulled up. Wren grabbed her wrist and ushered her into the

car.

“Wait!” Zoya called, trying to open the door and get out.

But the door locked. The car pulled away from the hotel, and Wren held her left hand firmly. For a moment she could not break free.

Not far away, Eowyn, who was driving to pick her friend up, gaped in shock. ‘No way! How has Zoya been pulled into Wren’s car? Where is he taking her?‘

Inside the car, Zoya glared at Wren and asked, “Mr. Richmond, what are you doing?”
