Attracted By My Ex-wife

"Stop, Anne!" Ruth exclaimed.

Anne had heard Ruth's voice from behind again while she was walking towards the escalator. She stopped in front of it, with a frown upon her face.

Meanwhile, Emily saw Ruth turning back to search for them and with exasperation from not being able to vent our her pent up anger, she said, "Oh, wow. The woman even dares to come back, huh!"

Faintly, Anne turned sideways to face Emily and talked to her as if by whispering, "Don't be bothered, Emily."

After saying that, she walked forward again, ignoring Ruth who was behind her.

With the way that Anne had ignored Ruth, how could it not annoy her? Ruth sprinted to where Anne and Emily were, got ahold of Emily's hand, and slapped her.

"Are you seriously out of your mind?" Emily said, utterly stunned at the way Ruth just slapped her without a second thought.

Ruth had already taken action before Emily could even react.

The crisp sound of the slap was even louder than before. Obviously, she had hit her harder.

"That is enough!"

Anne quickly came to pull Emily away from Ruth just as she was about to slap her for the second time.

Emily, still absolutely flabbergasted, stood frozen and still had no idea how she was going to react to what just happened.

With all haste, Anne slapped Ruth in the face.

Cherry was just following them from behind and was shocked herself to see that Anne had slapped Ruth.

"Ah! ！ !" With a series of screams, having been beaten by Emily previously was the last thing Ruth could bare. Then she got beaten by Anne again, which was such a shame for her.

She got so angry that she started stomping her feet with her fists clenched and without even thinking twice, she tried to tackle Anne to the ground.

Still, she failed, since Anne was able to circumvent her sudden attempt to attack her. Nonetheless, considering how strong she got, Ruth was able to rush her way towards the escalator and got down there.

"Ah!"

Ruth, while screaming, had disappeared in front of them all.

Anne's heart skipped a beat and Emily had trouble catching her breath witnessing that. Everyone was dazed for a moment and had no idea what just happened because things seemed to have escalated so quickly. Cherry was the first one to take action. She dashed to the escalator and to her surprise, she saw that Ruth had rolled to the bottom of the escalator.

There was blood everywhere.

Cherry screamed in fear and everyone went to see for themselves what caused her to be terrified. Anne started hyperventilating. Emily's heart was pounding. She started grabbing onto Anne's clothes as if she was holding on for dear life.

"Ruth!!! Oh, my God! This is your fault, Anne! You pushed her down the escalator!" Cherry screamed to Anne's face.

Down there, Ruth was surrounded by a group of people already discussing what they thought might have happened but no one made an effort to call
