"Keep moving if you want to die." Ruby raised her hand upwards slightly, and the silver needle in her hand pierced the skin on the other party’s neck.
She looked at the woman in front of her, wearing a mask and sunglasses, her eyes cold.
The woman didn't dare to move, the silver needle was pressed against her aorta and if she did pierce it, she would surely bleed out.
"I didn't expect you to be so lucky that you didn't even die like this. But people like you, who have done too many bad deeds, will always have their retribution, Ruby, I'm waiting to see the day when you have your retribution!" The woman's voice was cold and carried extreme hatred.
Ruby was a little surprised and reached out to take the sunglasses off her face and her hat off before she could see her face clearly.
Very unfamiliar, never seen it before.
She was in her thirties, her hair was half grey and the skin on her face was rough, obviously having been up late for a long time and doing work that had to withstand exposure to the sun and wind.
Looking at the unconcealed hatred inside the woman's eyes, Ruby sent the silver needle in her hand forward a little, "Who told you to come, or what is the enmity between you and me?"
"Who told me to come? Oh, don't you think it's ridiculous for you to ask such a question, Miss Harold?" The woman looked at Ruby with a sarcastic look in her eyes and spat at her.
Ruby frowned, "Speak properly! Have I offended you?"
The words "Miss Harold " made Ruby have a vague suspicion.
She hadn't been back in the country for long and hadn't actively caused any trouble, and the only person who had become famous recently was Rita, who didn't have much to do with her.
The only thing of concern to the Harold family is probably the project signed with the Finn Group. Spencer wanted to save costs, so he cut corners and used the worst materials, and did not even take into account the safety of the workers, and she heard that three workers died inside the construction site a month ago.
"You're still pretending? What are you pretending for, Ruby! There's not a single good person in your Harold family! You are even less of a good person! The Harold family has done such harmful things and you still protect them! I won't spare you even if I die!" The woman took the initiative and lifted her chin, sending her neck forward.
Ruby subconsciously withdrew the silver needle in her hand.
She looked at the haggardly described woman in front of her with some mixed emotions.
The Harold family has probably done more sins than just this one, and each time Spencer has found a way to muddle through.
That man relied on the lives and blood and sweat of these workers to grow the Harold Group little by little, but still did not satisfy, and wanted to continue to use the workers to build his business kingdom.
"There is a reason for injustice, since it was Spencer who caused your family to break up, you should go to him, what are you doing to me!” Ruby quickly regained her composure and looked at the woman in front of her with an indifferent expression.
"You're his precious daughter, I'll kill you so that he can feel the pain of losing his loved ones too! Ruby, you either kill me today, if you don't, I will ......" The woman's eyes were red and she glared angrily at Ruby, with that look as if she wanted to pounce on Ruby and gnaw on her fiercely.
"Anytime, but I'm afraid you won't be able to kill me and you'll have to go to hell with your family. I suppose you have children? Do you want to make your children orphans?" Ruby took a step back and just looked at the woman, her tone taking on a bit of mockery.
The woman couldn't hold back her tears at that, "Your family is not rude! My husband had an accident at your construction site, and you only compensated him with 10,000! That 10,000 wasn't even enough to cover his previous salary! My brother-in-law went to the Harold family to get an explanation, but they even broke his leg! He's still in hospital, and you didn’t even want to pay for his medical expenses, and they want to sue us! We don't have a chance to live, and neither do you!"
"If I were you, I would take up the law to protect myself, not go blindly into something stupid. Go to the man on the card, he will help you." Ruby fished out a business card from inside her pocket and handed it to the woman.
The woman picked it up and looked at Ruby with some bewilderment.
Ruby was not quite what she had imagined. Although her attitude was cold and even sneering at herself, she did not make a move or even hurt her.
She saw sympathy from inside Ruby's eyes.
