Chapter 82 Are You Intentionally Ignoring Us?
Kate quickly composed herself and resumed her rehabilitation exercises.
After all, she hadn’t picked up a brush in three years. Although her painting skills were still decent, she needed to start afresh in design, gradually regaining her touch and inspiration.
On the third day of Eric’s business trip to Belford, Holly and Ruth arrived at the Summer Estate. The two wore flattering smiles and looked very humble.
“Security guard, could you please let us in? We’re here to deliver something.”
Together, Ruth and Holly pleaded humbly with the security guard, Ike Newman, who was stationed at the house entrance.
Ike looked at them with disdain and sneered coldly. “Here to deliver something? Shouldn’t you be returning something? Haha! Our lady, who caught you two stealing, is kind–hearted. If it were up to me, you’d have lost your hands by now.”
Ruth and Holly broke out in a cold sweat at Ike’s words, but they forced flattering smiles and continued to speak humbly. “Sir, we really know we were wrong. That’s why we came to return. the items as soon as possible. Please let us in.”
Ike gave them a disdainful glance that conveyed a visible repulse. He said, “Fine, wait here. I’ll inform Madam.”
He retreated to his booth, leisurely pulling out his phone, but made no attempt to contact Kate.
He wasn’t acting on his own; Kate had instructed him to make these two suffer a bit if they ever returned.
Initially, Ruth thought Ike was genuinely contacting Kate, so she stood there, enduring the mounting irritation and resentment.
They had arrived at noon, the hottest time of the day.
Unfortunately, by the time they secured the loan and got the money, it was already midday.
They wasted no time and rushed to Summer Estate to return the money to Kate. The pair wanted. to avoid Kate changing her mind and calling the police to send them to jail.
Aside from that, Ruth wasn’t too concerned about the money now.
Simon had told her that Lowe Group was planning to collaborate with Miles Corporation to launch a new design subsidiary, with Simon as the person in charge and general manager of the branch. Ruth would be appointed as the designer and participate in this project.
It was said, Kate secured this opportunity for Ruth by recommending her to her brother.
