Chapter 70
When I got off work in the evening, Bruce picked me up at the company in a Rolls–Royce.
His behavior had caused serious trouble to me.N
I walked to a corner where not many people were around and warned Bruce, “Bruce, I have said many times that I will not get back together with you. Please stop doing these useless things. It’s Carol who likes roses and beef. I am allergic to beef. Did you give me these things to remind me of my bad marriage in the past, or to make me break out in a rash?”
Bruce opened his eyes wide, unaware of this.N
“I’m sorry, Flora. I will cook your favorite meals and give you your favorite flowers in the future.” Bruce lowered his head, looking very apologetic.N
If I hadn’t experienced what happened in the past, I might think he was a good man.
However, I knew this man who was good at disguise and I would never make the same mistake again.
“No need. When I see you, I will think of the humiliating past and my dead child. The things you gave me will make me feel sick, so please don’t appear in my world anymore.” I said indifferently.
Bruce’s eyes turned red as if he was hurt by my words.W
For the next month, he finally stopped harassing me, and I was able to live a peaceful life.
Later, I met him at my best friend’s birthday party.
When I saw him coming towards me, I immediately turned around and went to the bathroom.
On the way back from the bathroom, I passed by a room and heard ambiguous sounds coming from inside.
The man was a well–known rich man in the city and his name was Sam White. It was said that he was a playboy and liked to use violence during lovemaking.N
The woman was slapped several times with tears on her face, but she still pretended to be happy.
They changed their posture and I could see who the woman was.W
It was Carol.
Carol also saw me. She bit her lips with her eyes widened and turned her face away in shame.W
But soon, her eyes were filled with hatred.W
I didn’t know why Carol had become like this. I didn’t feel relieved or sorry.”
I took a glance and left in a hurry.
Half an hour later, Carol came to me with champagne.
She put thick foundation on her face as if to cover up the marks from being slapped.
She stared at me with jealousy. “You are happy now, right? It is all your fault that I am like this now.“W
After she left Bruce, Carpl was unwilling to go back to her previous poor life, so she had no choice but to sell her body.”
She was notorious in the upper–class society, and all the wealthy and powerful people looked down on her.”
She could only stay with Sam, a greasy and violent man.”
I said coldly, “What does this have to do with me? It’s all your fault.“W
Carol felt that her situation was caused by me. If I hadn’t exposed her identity, she would have been a wealthy lady now.” Before leaving, she said viciously that she would never let me go.”
I thought she was crazy. Wasn’t it normal to give back things that she stole and robbed?”
Did she think that those things belonged to her?W
Suddenly, a waiter bumped into me and spilled some wine on my clothes accidentally.
The waiter apologized and handed me a tissue.
I didn’t mind it and just wiped it off.
At this time, a refined and handsome man smiled at me and said, “Ms. Lynn, can I talk with you?“W
He was Chris Jackson, my best friend Olivia Wood’s cousin. We had met before.W
I nodded and went to a corner to talk with him.”
Half an hour later, a scream suddenly came from upstairs.”
The diamond necklace worth 300 million dollars was missing. Olivia was going to wear it to the event today.”
Olivia was the only daughter of the Wood Group, and her husband was the richest man in the state. So when the news came out, everyone was talking about it.
Carol immediately pointed at me and raised her voice. “Flora, you stole it. I saw you running out of the room where the necklace was kept. The necklace should be in your bag now.“”
Bruce stood in front of me frowning “Ston talking nonsense here Flora and Olivia are good friends How could she steal

Bruce stcou in front of me, frowning. “Stop talking nonsense here. Flora and Olivia are good friends. How could she steal Olivia’s jewelry?”
Olivia, my best friend, always hated Carol because she destroyed my marriage.”
Seeing Carol accusing me, Olivia said angrily, “Carol, Flora is my best friend. Even if she went into that room, she wouldn’t steal my necklace. Stop slandering her.“”
“Olivia, people’s hearts cannot be told from their appearance. Let’s check her bag.” Carol said righteously.
“No, how can you open her bag without evidence? That’s her privacy.” Bruce said seriously.
Seeing Bruce protecting me like this, Carol was very angry. “I am the witness. I saw her sneakily come out of the room and put something in her bag.””
I smiled, “What if I don’t have it in my bag?“!
Carol said firmly, “It’s impossible. It must be in your bag. If not, you can punish me.“>
I smiled and said, “Okay, that’s what you said. If I don’t have it in my bag, you should apologize to me. Besides, if you search my bag, I want to search your bag too.“}
Carol agreed, “No problem.”
She was very confident that the diamond necklace would be in my bag.”
