Chapter 8 You're a Heartless Bitch!

Suddenly, the door of the villa was opened. Before Arabella could react, she saw Ezra walking in with a gloomy face. Arabella looked at this familiar man, but a trace of fear arose in her heart for no reason. Finally, nearer... The man's eyebrows seemed to have a layer of frost between the eyes, so cold that people suffocated. Before Arabella could say anything, Ezra's slap suddenly landed heavily on the right side of her face. Arabella's entire body was thrown uncontrollably onto the sofa, and her ears were instantly buzzing. Before she could react, in the next second, she was lifted up again by the man by the neck. "Arabella, how dare you?!" With endless coldness in his eyes, Ezra nearly hissed, "Why did you have to be so cruel to your own sister? Why did you destroy her?" Arabella barely opened her eyes and spoke out with difficulty and hoarseness, "I didn't ... Beth Ruth is lying, it has nothing to do with me!" Ezra sneered, "You're still lying! Jack Smith has already identified you, what else do you have to say?" Arabella's pupils dilated instantly. She hadn't seen Jack Smith for more than three years, how could he suddenly say that he was instructed by her? She looked fixedly at the man in front of her with her stubborn and resigned eyes, "I really didn't. I couldn't have done such a thing even if I liked you more! Jack Smith was falsely accusing me!" "You still want to defend yourself now? The man's forehead rippled with veins, and his grip on her neck tightened, "I thought you wouldn't do such nasty things as you were the daughter of Ruth's family after all, but it turned out to be I shouldn't trust you! Today I just realized that you are a ruthless, selfish and vicious bitch!" "I didn't ..." Arabella felt like she couldn't breathe, she tried desperately to pull the man's hand and punch him, but she couldn't budge a bit. She gradually lost in a trance, pulled the corners of her mouth, and found it difficult to speak out. "If I am really guilty, let the police come to arrest me ... I won't admit what I haven't done... never! " Ezra's eyes were scarlet as the bottom of his eyes were all suppressed madness and anger, "Who does not know that you Ruth's family is so powerful? What is the use of handing you over to the police?!" Unbelievable and so uncomfortable... The air was getting thinner and thinner, and Arabella even felt a wet and hot sensation of blood coming out of her throat. Her eyes were blurred and she looked at the man in front of her with tears in her eyes. At this moment, she felt that the man in front of her really wanted to kill her. Was she going to die like this? To die in Ezra's hands would probably be the greatest irony of her life... Suddenly, a cell phone ringing suddenly rang in the hall. Ezra's bloodthirsty eyes regained some clarity. He looked at Arabella's reddened face and finally let go of his hand. Arabella was thrown hard onto the couch, and her body was too weak to lift a single ounce of strength. She exhaled greedily, but immediately choked on the air that broke into her throat, which caused her to cough uncontrollably. She looked at the man with some fear and even felt a bit of gratitude for escaping death. Ezra looked away and picked up the phone on the coffee table. Looking at the screen that showed "Andrew James", the man hesitated for a few seconds. Ezra hardly ever contacted Andrew James privately, for this half-brother, he had always been indifferent and ignored. But today Andrew James actually took the initiative to call. "Hello, big brother." The man on the other side had a low tone and said softly, "I found out the cause of father's death." Ezra wrinkled his eyebrows and paused for a moment out of suspicion before answering Andrew. "Wait for me at the old mansion." Before leaving the villa, the man glanced expressionlessly at the woman curling up on the sofa, and said, "This is not over!" Arabella numbly watched his back as he left, and only when she heard the sound of the engine in the courtyard gradually diminishing did she hug her body and tremble. Tears that had been held back for a long time poured out like rain... On the wide road, a black Maybach sped past through. Ezra's hands tightly clenched the steering wheel with his gaze grimly looking straight ahead. All in a trance, he seemed to see a large scarlet red that often appeared in his dreams when he was young. It was an unusually tragic car accident that his parents held him tightly in their arms and took the full brunt of the damage for him. The blood-stained clothes blurred his vision. He tried to speak but couldn't get a word out ... Not until the car reached the old James' family mansion, did Ezra pull his thoughts back at the doorway. He pushed the door to get out of the car but did not expect a gust of wind to blow through his body, then he realized that his back has been soaked with sweat. Andrew James had been waiting for him in the room, and there was a pile of photos and documents on the desktop. "It's all here. Take your time." Ezra did not rush to look but looked up at the calm man across the table. Looking at this half-brother who he always couldn't guess what he was thinking, Ezra got confused. "Would you be so kind to help me?" Andrew James laughed, "Big brother, that's not right, what do you mean by helping you, I'm just helping myself. Although Lily James is not my mother, at least Levi James is my father! I'm just a son looking into my own father's death. How could that be called as helping you?" Ezra gave him a suspicious look, then looked down at the documents in his hand. But unexpectedly, just after reading the first page, Ezra suddenly shuddered, and a trace of intense shock flashed in his eyes. The more he looked, the more his face sank. "Brother, now all the evidence points to Ruth's family," Andrew James' emotion was unknown, just a trace of complexity between the eyebrows, "In that car accident, not only dad and your mom died, there was also a driver who died." The car accident was so tragic that if it wasn't for Ezra's parents, Ezra would have been buried along with them. Andrew James swept over Ezra with a gaze and then said, "This driver had frequent interactions with Ruth's family people , and even in the days before the accident, he also met Arabella's father Aden Ruth. After that day, his bank account received a large transfer. The remittance account was proved to be Ruth's staff's." After Levi James and Lily James died in the car accident, Aden Ruth came specifically to mourn in their funeral. Although on the surface the two families got along quite harmoniously, Ezra knew that after his parents' death, many of the original James's family's projects fell into Ruth's hands. It was after that that Ruth's family grew rapidly and became second only to James's family. Ezra coldly threw the documents in his hand onto the table, tapped the table with his knuckles, opened his lips, and said lightly, "The evidence is not yet sufficient, but whether it is Ruth's family or Arabella, I will slowly clean up one by one."
