Chapter 331: Chapter 331
"Lana, that’s enough. This bracelet is something I bought myself. Just because it resembles yours doesn’t mean it’s yours. Stop throwing dirt on me!"
Lana, "But I have the receipt. The jewelry from this brand has unique batch numbers. Do you dare go to the counter with me to match them?"
Vincent choked on his words, unable to say anything.
Rose and Fiona also looked extremely embarrassed. They thought it was true love and wore the bracelet given by true love to show off, only to find out it was stolen. If this gets out, it would be incredibly shameful.
But now, they had already chosen Vincent’s side, and couldn’t simply walk away.
Moreover, Fiona was waiting for Vincent to break up with Lana and marry her. She was about to marry into a wealthy family, so she had to stay by Vincent’s side no matter what, to show him her sincerity and willingness to face all troubles together.
Fiona gracefully said, "Miss Quill, don’t be angry. It’s just a bracelet, isn’t it? I’ll return it to you. After all, Vincent acted impulsively because he loves me too much. He took your things to give to me as a token of his love, which proves his genuine affection for me. So, considering his sincerity, please don’t hold a grudge, okay?"
Fiona continued, "Miss Quill, I hope you understand my presence has never been the reason for your relationship’s fallout. You should look for reasons within yourself. However, since you two have already broken up, just make a clean break. Don’t keep entangling meaninglessly, it’s not beneficial for either of you. What do you say?"
Lana spat out two words, "Idiotic."
Fiona, "Miss Quill, how could you use such foul language?"
What could Vincent do now? Since owing money and stealing a girlfriend’s things to give to a mistress were all confirmed, he could only maintain his passionate image.
At least everyone would think his actions were understandable given his genuine love for Fiona.
After all, since ancient times, love has been the most moving force. No matter what, when it comes to love, everything should give way to it.
In the face of love, basic values are worth nothing.
So Vincent put on a model facade again, "Lana, you hate me, you can say whatever bad things you want about me. But you can’t treat Fiona . She has done nothing wrong to you, you have no right to insult her."
He embraced Fiona in his arms, appearing like a pair of star-crossed lovers.
"She’s the only girl in the world worth my love. As long as I’m here, I won’t allow you to harm her." Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝕟𝕖𝕥
Lana made an OK gesture, "I have no interest in hurting you. Just tell me, are you going to return my money, my necklace, and the other things you stole from me or not?"
She said, "Vincent, since we know each other, if I really handed you to the police personally, I’d feel terrible about it, don’t you think?"
Vincent just wanted to muddle through this situation, but Lana not only pushed him to repay the money but also insisted on framing him for theft. He was gritting his teeth.
"Lana, I truly regret having been blind enough to be with a woman like you!"
"Grateful that your eyes have finally opened."
Lana stated, "So, are you returning the money and things or not?"
The crowd around was hooting, demanding Vincent return the money and jewelry, as they had never seen such a scummy man before.
And Fiona and Rose also became the target of everyone’s ire.
Rose frowned, looking at Vincent, "Vincent, Fiona is my friend. She’s always been so naive. You said you’d treat her well, only then did I feel reassured to entrust her to you. But it’s been such a short time, and you’ve let your ex-girlfriend humiliate her to this extent—is this your idea of love? You’ve really disappointed us."
Having said that, she pulled Fiona over and said, "Fiona, look at him. He can’t even protect you; he doesn’t deserve your affection. Do you still want to be with him?"
Fiona lowered her head and cried, looking weak and pitiful, which provoked Vincent.
Vincent blamed everything on Lana. If it hadn’t been for Lana’s scene today, would Fiona be this sad?
Thinking that Fiona would continue to resent him because of this, Vincent couldn’t endure Lana any longer.
He glared at Lana fiercely, "Lana, you’ve gone too far. I can’t stand you anymore!"
Having said that, he raised his hand and slapped it towards Lana’s face.
He wanted to act. He wanted everyone to know that this was not his fault, that he was coerced by Lana. Otherwise, why would a man like him resort to violence in public against Lana?
It’s because Lana was too excessive.
He wanted to turn the situation around, couldn’t just stand by and let Lana throw all the blame on him.
Lana never expected Vincent to be so uncouth, actually resorting to violence directly.
She wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
Yet unexpectedly, Vincent’s slap never landed because his wrist was grabbed by someone.
Lana stared blankly at the person who subdued Vincent, it was...
Oh my God, when did God Sterling arrive?
Did God Sterling witness her beef with Vincent?
It’s over, it’s over, embarrassed herself in front of God Sterling.
A moment ago, Lana was unmoved, but now she felt like crying.
However, in the next moment, she couldn’t cry because after Paige grabbed Vincent’s wrist, she paused only for a moment.
In the next moment, she suddenly pressed Vincent onto the table and started punching him, leaving Vincent bewildered, and the people around equally perplexed.
Lana covered her mouth, my God, God Sterling is so mighty! Truly deserving of being her goddess!
She shouldn’t mess around with lousy love in her life; just keeping God Sterling in her heart forever should be enough.
Paige showed no mercy while beating Vincent. When Lana snapped back to reality, she suddenly thought, in broad daylight, if Paige couldn’t control her strength and beat him to death, wouldn’t Paige be implicated by her?
Lana hurriedly stopped, "Sis..."
She didn’t dare to call her God Sterling, fearing being recognized as Paige, which would affect her reputation.
"Sis Sterling, don’t hit him, don’t hit him. Such scum isn’t worth dirtying your hands. Please stop..."
Paige calmly withdrew her hand.
Vincent, Rose, and Fiona stood aside, staring intensely at Paige.
Lana stood behind Paige, "What are you staring at? Did you think I had no one to back me up?"
Vincent, bruised and swollen, gritted his teeth and said, "Lana, you actually called someone to beat me! I’ll sue you!"
