"Beep, beep, beep—"
The ringing continued, one, two, three times, like a pendulum, striking Clara's heart.
Her pores stood on end, and she trembled all over.
Answer it!
Ruoxin, pick up the phone quickly!
Finally, just as she was about to break down, Du Ruoxin's gentle voice came through the signal, "Hello, sister-in-law..."
Clara interrupted urgently, "Ruoxin, save me, save me!"
"Wuwu—"
Du Ruoxin listened to the helpless cries coming through the radio waves, and her heart clenched violently. "What's wrong? Sister-in-law, are you in danger?"
"Where are you? Do you have bodyguards with you?"
"Is the child okay?"
Du Ruoxin immediately became flustered and anxious, but no matter what she said, Clara just cried, her cries growing louder.
Du Ruoxin turned and ran in a hurry, preparing to find Cristiano!
However, after only a few steps, Clara's hoarse and pained voice sounded again, "I... he wants to break off the engagement with me."
No, it was Cristiano who had unilaterally announced to the media that he was breaking off his engagement with her!
And she, through a friend in Europe, was the last to know!
Why?
Why didn't he even tell her about breaking off the engagement?
What about her and the child?
Clara was lost and extremely scared.
She tried to call Cristiano, but it wouldn't go through. It seemed he had blocked her. No matter if she used her mobile or landline, she couldn't get through.
Unable to contact him!
She was inexplicably abandoned and left single!
Clara's legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the floor. The cold marble stimulated her nerves, and she shivered all over.
No!
Her dream of marrying into a wealthy family!
Without Cristiano, what did she have?
Clara's tears fell in large drops. She suddenly remembered that Du Ruoxin had once said that how much she could get from him depended on Du Ruoxin's attitude towards her and the child.
Yes! Du Ruoxin!
She was her only lifeline!
Clara frantically dialed Du Ruoxin's number.
"He announced our breakup to the media, I, I—"
Cristiano didn't tell her directly but let the media break the news, proving that he was determined to get rid of her, and it was set in stone, unchangeable!
But, but—
"Waa—"
Clara started crying sadly again.
Du Ruoxin's mind buzzed. What?! Big brother wants to break off his engagement with sister-in-law? And sister-in-law is pregnant!
"Don't worry, don't worry," Du Ruoxin quickly comforted her. "Sister-in-law, be careful not to upset the baby!"
"I'm going to find big brother!"
"Wait for me!"
That's right, she still had the child, and the child couldn't suffer any harm!
Clara calmed herself down and controlled her sobs. "Okay... I... uh... wait for you."
Du Ruoxin hung up the phone and rushed to Cristiano, her face very displeased, and her tone also not good. "You, come out! I have something to say to you!"
Cristiano: "Hmm?"
Seeing that the woman had already turned to leave, he put down his teacup without thinking and followed closely behind her.
Everyone: "————"
What's going on!
How could Mr. Rothschild be ordered around so easily by Mrs. Rong?
Everyone unanimously looked at Rong Jingyang—Hey, the grass on your head is getting greener and greener!
Rong Jingyang didn't pay attention to the strange glances around him. Seeing Du Ruoxin's unusually serious face, he couldn't help but curve his lips slightly—What did Cristiano do? It feels like she's here to interrogate him!
He was a little curious.
He wanted to follow and see.
