Chapter 17 Never Let Unrelated People In Again
Ruth made several phone calls, and just as she was about to lose her patience, the phone finally connected. She couldn’t wait to speak, “Kate, I came to Summer Estate to find you, but the security guard stopped me outside! They are a bunch of fools. Aren’t they afraid of losing their jobs?”
On the other end of the line, Kate’s lips curled into a mocking smile, and her eyes grew colder. She calmly said, “They would lose their jobs if they let you in.”
Ruth was taken aback. She rubbed her ear, finding it hard to believe what she had just heard, and asked, “Kate, what do you mean by that?”
Kate chuckled softly, “Summer Estate will no longer allow unrelated people in.”
Ruth was speechless. She tightened her grip on her phone, frowned, and said somewhat hurt, “Kate, are you saying that I am an unrelated person?
“Then who else would it be?”
Kate tapped the table lightly with her index finger. Her expression turned cold, and she said, “This time, Eric no longer trusts me as much. If you still have no sense and come to Summer Estate, be careful not to end up in trouble!”
After Kate finished speaking, she lowered her voice and quickly added, “Let’s discuss it at the banquet tomorrow. I will ask Eric to take me there.”
Then, she hung up the phone without hesitation.
She stood by the window, her eyes fixed on the entrance of Summer Estate, her gaze following the distant figure of Ruth. Then, she chuckled and lowered her eyes.
The show has just begun.
Meanwhile, Ruth at the entrance had a sudden change in expression. Her eyes were filled with cold and complex emotions.
She felt that something was amiss.
Kate beat Simon and didn’t allow her into Summer Estate. Could it be that she truly wanted to gain Eric’s trust and have him take her to the banquet tomorrow? If that was the case, she could benefit from Kate again tomorrow.
She turned around, looking behind her, and was instantly frightened. Without thinking, she panicked and ran into the nearby forest, still in her high heels. In her haste, she twisted her foot and fell to the ground in a miserable state.
She quickly covered her mouth tightly, trembling as she lay on the ground, not daring to make a
sound.
