Divorced CEO's Forgotten Wife Strikes Back (Riley and Bryce) novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301 Everyone’s Born Equal

Samuel had once nearly died saving Riley.

So how could he hurt her now?

Unless… what if he had a reason? What if something was forcing Samuel to act this way?

Riley twisted her arm and pulled free from Zane’s grip, and took a step back.

If this wasn’t Samuel, she wouldn’t give him a chance to hurt her.

And if it was Samuel, well, she definitely wasn’t going to let him hurt her either.

No matter the reason, if he hurt her, it would only make him feel worse in the end.

Zane froze for a moment, clearly surprised by how easily she’d gotten away.

Security? Hello? Where’s security?” Cynthia snapped.1:14

Security showed up fast, and they recognized Cynthia right away. The Lincoln family might be an American family from Russia, but Cynthia was a big deal in high society circles. Everyone knew her, even here in Germany.

“She hurt my hand,” Cynthia said, pointing at Riley. “Kick her out.” Then she paused, walking up to Riley with a smug smile. “Actually, you should apologize to me first. Do that, and maybe I’ll let it go.”

“Shouldn’t you be apologizing to me?” Riley fired back.

“Apologize to you? You’ve got to be kidding.” Cynthia looked at her like she was trash.

“Everyone’s born equal,” Riley said flatly. “So yeah, I wasn’t kidding.”

“Ha! Born equal? That’s what lowlifes like you tell yourselves to feel better. Right now, I’m telling you to apologize, so you’re going to apologize!” Cynthia shot a look at the security guards.

They got the message instantly. One of them stepped up to Riley. “You need to apologize to Ms. Lincoln, or we’re going to have to remove you by force.”

Sure, Cynthia was only from a branch family of the Lincoln family, but the guy standing behind her–Zane- he was the main family’s only heir.

And the Lincoln family from Russia? Yeah, they weren’t people you wanted to mess with.

Riley frowned, but she didn’t want to blow this up into a big scene. She still had many questions to ask Zane.

“I’m Sebastian’s date tonight,” Riley said.

In Germany, Sebastian’s name carried serious weight.

“Are you kidding me? Sebastian? The head of the Torres family in the States?” Cynthia laughed. “Everyone knows he never brings women to these things. If you’re gonna lie, at least do your homework first.”

The other socialites and rich kids around Cynthia started laughing too.

“You know what? I don’t even want your apology anymore.” Cynthia’s eyes filled with pure malice. “I’m gonna break your hand instead.”

Something about Riley just rubbed her the wrong way. Especially the way Riley had looked at Zane earlier, like she was seeing someone she’d known forever.

“If you want to break my girlfriend’s hand, Ms. Lincoln,” Sebastian’s voice cut through the crowd, “then I’ll break yours first.”

Everyone froze.

Riley spun around and saw Sebastian and Vince heading straight toward her.

Vince rushed to her side. “Rye, what happened?”

“It’s nothing,” Riley said.

“Nothing?” Vince’s eyes landed on the obvious red mark on her face. “Someone hit you?”

“Who did it?” Sebastian’s voice was ice–cold.

The crowd had been skeptical before–was Riley really Sebastian’s girlfriend? But seeing Sebastian this pissed off as he looked around at everyone, they didn’t doubt it

nymore.

Everyone said Sebastian wasn’t interested in women, that he was cold and distant. But right now, he was clearly

furious over some girl. If she wasn’t his girlfriend, what furious over some gi else could she be?

All eyes turned to Cynthia, the one who’d slapped Riley.

Sebastian stared at her. “You hit her?”

“So what if I did? She grabbed my brother for no reason, so I slapped her to teach her a lesson.” Cynthia’s voice was defiant.

“Fine. Since you hit her, you’re getting it back 10 times worse.” Sebastian raised his hand toward Cynthia’s face.

“Stop!” someone shouted, and someone else grabbed Sebastian’s hand.

Zane had shouted, but it was Riley who’d caught Sebastian’s hand.

Sebastian looked at Riley. “She hit you. So she deserves to get hit.”

“Yeah, Rye, you can’t just let this go,” Vince added. F95:14

If Sebastian didn’t do something about it, Vince would.

Zane pulled Cynthia behind him and stood up to Sebastian and Vince. “If you’re really going to start something, I’ll finish it. The Lincolns don’t go down easy.”

Sebastian and Vince stared at that face–the same face as Samuel’s—and hesitated. After all, they still weren’t sure if this guy was Samuel or not.

Riley stepped forward. “I’ll let the slap from your cousin slide,” she said to Zane. “But I need to talk to you alone, Mr. Lincoln. Just for a few minutes.”
