Chapter 90
Chapter: 90
Her loud scream resonated through the banquet hall.
Lara was on a short skirt that could do nothing to protect her knee as it landed on
the broken pieces of glass. Her face and ears turned red in embarrassment at
her indecent posture.
Millie hurried over to help her up.
Before she could touch her, a middle-aged man rushed over and pushed her
away.
“Lara!” he called in a panicked tone and assisted the young Lara to her feet. He
was Lara's father, Johnnie Yerkes.
Before long, a crowd had already gathered around the scene.
“Dad, someone deliberately pushed me. You have to do something,” Lara said,
her vision blurring with tears as she saw the think red liquid oozing out of her
knee.
When she looked up again, her eyes coincidentally fell on Millie and her eyes
went wide. She pointed blatantly at Millie and stated like a spoilt child, “She’s the
one who pushed me, dad!”
Lara was the cherished gem of her family. She was loved by everyone, and had
never gone through a single hardship in her life. This moment of embarrassment
was most certainly the worse thing she had ever suffered.
Millie couldn't defend herself. Although it wasn't a deliberate act, it was her fault.
But right now, she had to tone this scene down before it ruined the party.
“Miss Yerkes, I'm truly sorry about this. Someone pushed me from behind, then I
lost my balance and bumped into you. It wasn't deliberate, but was an accident.
Please, let me help you to the medical room and treat your injury.”
Lara didn’t care about Millie's explanation. All that mattered to her was that Millie
did this to her.
She slapped away Millie's attempt to help her.
“Don't touch me! I know you're pretending. Do you have another evil plan to hurt
me in there? At least now I understand why there are all those rumours about
you.
You really are a wicked woman. Someone pushed you?” Lara scoffed and added,
“Are we supposed to believe that?”

Millie looked at the red handprint on
her hand, then looked around
carefully, as if expecting to see
something out of the normal.
Someone had pushed her from
behind. She was certain about it. But

Suddenly, a small path cleared in the
crowd and Marcus walked to the
center of the scene. When his eyes
fell on the shards of glass on the
floor and small drops of blood, he
asked, “What's going on?" The

He had stepped out for a short phone call, and like magic, something went wrong
in here.

His wife? Marcus’ frown deepened.
