Chapter 580
“Hurry up, I can’t hold on any longer!” Evelyn’s voice gasped on the phone.
Thalassa’s worry intensified, and she said anxiously, “Keep the line open. I am on my way down!”
Thalassa practically bolted out of the door. They were living in an apartment building without an elevator. As she rushed down the stairs, she missed her step and almost tumbled down.
Luckily, she stumbled a few steps forward and regained her balance.
As soon as she steadied herself, she bolted towards the apartment complex’s exit.
From a distance, she saw Evelyn gripping a man’s shirt. The man was trying to pull away, but Evelyn wouldn’t let him. They were locked in a stalemate.
“You rotten bastard, give me my money back!” Evelyn was red-faced and screaming, still clutching the man’s shirt.
“Evelyn, let go of me! You’re making a scene!” The man, blushing from embarrassment, retorted.
As Thalassa got closer, she recognized the man Evelyn was arguing with. It was Bruce!
Thalassa wasn’t sure what had happened, but seeing that man made her instantly wary and defensive.
Evelyn turned to Thalassa, panting, “Help me hold him. Don’t let him get away! I saw him with the man who scammed me out of three million earlier. They were still scamming others in the complex with their bloody scheme!”
She intended to catch the scammer, but he ran away too quickly, and she could only catch Bruce.
Thalassa’s eyes widened in surprise, understanding why Evelyn was so upset. She stepped forward to help, grabbing hold of Bruce’s shirt, her face stern, “I can’t believe you would do something like this!”
That man was genuinely shameless to do such a thing.
“Thalassa, it’s not what your mother is saying. Listen to me. There’s been a misunderstanding.” Bruce’s face softened as he tried to explain.
Evelyn cursed, cutting him off, “Shut up, you liar! You’ve deceived so many women! Thalassa, don’t waste your breath on him. Call the/police!”
Thalassa was already holding her phone, ready to dial 911.
She had barely pressed a button when Bruce snatched her phone away in desperation.
Thalassa instinctively tried to grab it back, but Bruce held it high out of her reach.
She took a few steps forward to try and grab it, but that meant she would have had to get close to Bruce, and there would have been physical contact.
She didn’t want to have any contact with Bruce, so she stopped, her eyes blazing, “Give me back my phone!”
