Let Me Stay The Night

Chapter 144 An Upset Xenia

The man snorted icily. “Stop putting up an act. I’ve heard everything clearly! You are obviously after my money. I will withdraw the investment I gave Steele Group!”

Miranda panicked when she heard he wanted to withdraw his capital.

Losing both the rich son-in-law and his funds would be catastrophic for their family.

She immediately went after him. “Please forgive Emilia. I promise she won’t complain again no matter what you want her to do.”

The man ignored her, and his bodyguards came forward to stop Emilia and Miranda from getting any closer to him.

Emilia’s hurried pace caused her high heels to catch on the hem of her dress, and the fabric tore with a loud rip. A sizable gap opened up behind her, leaving her feeling exposed and embarrassed.

She climbed to her feet and staggered to the door.

She couldn’t afford to let him leave. It was hard for her to find a rich and foolish man like him. She really thought he was the one who could provide for her.

No matter how hard she yelled, the man refused to look back. He hopped onto his vehicle which was worth tens of millions and drove away,

Her reputation and image as a graceful socialite were instantly ruined.

Back in the dressing room, Emilia flung her arms around Miranda and wailed, “Mom, it was all Christina’s fault! She has destroyed my wedding! My husband ran away, and Dad yelled at me! Christina wanted me to suffer! Look at my dress. She must’ve done it on purpose to humiliate me!”

Emilia’s loud wails filled the air and her resentment was palpable.
