Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Calling for Backup When You Can’t Win (2)
"If you say so." Raina said, "Actually, I’m more inclined to go to the police station. After all, someone like me, just an ordinary person, can only rely on the police to stand up for me when something happens."
Aaron Warren sneered, "Raina, are you stupid? Do you really think the police can protect you forever? If I want to, you’ll never have a good life."
Raina’s expression turned slightly cold, "It seems you’re determined to not let this go."
"You asked for it first!" Aaron felt an indescribable satisfaction seeing Raina in this state.
Wasn’t this woman quite tough before? And now? She’s being completely suppressed by him.
Claire North observed all this, a hidden smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
Even if Raina marries into the Hawthorne Family, so what? Does she really think she can do whatever she wants as the stolen Mrs. Hawthorne?
Absolutely not!
To be honest, Claire was actually anticipating Raina going to the police station. No matter the reason, being taken to the police station never brings a good reputation.
Families like the Hawthorne Family are particularly sensitive to reputation.
Second Uncle Warren glanced at his nephew, somewhat discontented with his impulsiveness, but ultimately said nothing else; better to teach the child at home.
He looked at Raina, "You’re Raina, right? I came here today not to make things difficult, but I hope you can apologize for what you did."
Raina said, "And what if I refuse to apologize?"
Second Uncle Warren said, "I think you should change your mind because I’m very insistent on this matter."
"Raina doesn’t need to apologize if she did nothing wrong!" Leila Foster couldn’t stand it anymore and rushed out.
Wanda Woods covered her forehead seeing this. She just took her eyes off for a moment and this girl rushed out. Didn’t she see that President Hawthorne had arrived?
You know, snatching the opportunity for someone to play the hero is really inappropriate, isn’t it?
However, the others didn’t pay it much mind.
Claire North saw Raina remaining silent, and hypocritically advised, "Sister, you should just apologize. It’s really not a big deal. Besides, you were in the wrong initially; under any circumstances, you shouldn’t use force."
"Claire is more sensible. I’ll tell you, Raina, today you will apologize whether you want to or not. If you stubbornly resist, you’re the one who’ll end up worse off." Chloe Jarvis coldly sneered and said, "You’re really stupid, to have no brains at all. Don’t you know there are some people you simply cannot provoke? Once you have provoked them, there’s no way you can walk away unscathed. If I were you, I would kneel down now, smack myself a few times, and apologize."
Raina looked at the woman basking in her own satisfaction and sincerely said, "Too bad you’re not me, and I’m not you."
If one has utterly lost their dignity, would that still be considered living?
Chloe’s face changed, and just as she was about to burst out, she saw Aidan Lynch walk in, her eyes lit up, "Special Assistant Lynch, why are you here?"
"What happened?" Aidan’s gaze swept across them; it seemed that just during his visit to The Veridian Institute of Medicine, the conflict had escalated again.
"Isn’t it because of Raina? Ever since this b*tch came, the Veridian Institute of Medicine hasn’t been peaceful."
Ronan Lynch raised an eyebrow, "Who are you calling a b*tch?"
"I’m calling Raina a b*tch."
"Hmm, indeed a b*tch."
Haha—
Leila couldn’t help but laugh.
Chloe then realized it, her face flushed red, protesting, "Special Assistant Lynch, why would you say something that leads to misunderstanding, didn’t you see they’re all laughing at me?"
Raina raised her eyebrows, looking at Aidan with a half-smile.
