Originally, Karina was somewhat hesitant. Upon hearing that Rosaline was calling Kingsley, she snatched Rosaline’s cell phone away from her as she said, “Hello, President Baxter, I am Karina King. Do you know this woman? She had a car crash with me. Oh, by the way, Nora is also in my car.”
“Forget it. You don’t need to come over. I will be embarrassed, I’ll just solve it by myself.”
Karina hung off the phone, opened the car door, and dragged Rosaline out. Then she slapped her on the face, “You are calling him ‘Brother’ in such an intimate way. I see that you are addicted to being a mistress, right?”
Rosaline was completely befuddled because of the slapping.
Karina was someone who would rather take action instead of wasting time talking nonsense. Moreover, she had found Rosaline an eyesore early. She had not settled the issue happening at Allure Restaurant with her yet. And now Rosaline crashed into her favorite car. Rosaline should be happy that Karina didn’t scratch and ruin her face.
Nora bit her lips with a somewhat pale look on her face.
As Karina and Rosaline ran into each other, they probably had to go through a fierce quarrel. And now it looked like Karina had the upper hand.
Rosaline was angry as well as furious. She reluctantly signed the compensation slip. Moreover, her driver’s license was going to be deducted points for allegedly violating the rules.
Karina was in a good mood and glanced at her with cold eyes. Nora in the car, who couldn’t sit with ease, immediately got off the car and walked to Karina’s side as she pulled her. “Karina!”
Rosaline’s fair face turned red instantly. As she wanted to fight back, Karina squeezed her hand, “I won’t settle it private today. Let’s wait for the traffic police to be here and deal with it.”
She looked back at Nora and commanded, “Nora, you should go back first. And I’ll wait here.”
Nora shook her head, “No, I’ll accompany you so that I can testify for you.”
Karina feared that Nora would be embarrassed when Kingsley was here. There was no telling as to how many times Kingsley had hurt Nora. Karina felt so sorry for her.
Rosaline struggled and squeezed her fingers tightly as her nails pinched into her palm. Then she fiercely glared at Karina, “Wait and see.” She covered her face heart and felt so aggrieved, wondering whether she should shed a few tears when Kingsley was here later so that he could teach the two of them a hard lesson.
Karina didn’t say anything and stared at Nora with sympathy.
Karina thought, “F**k! As expected, men are all scoundrels.”
Kingsley pressed his eyebrows after hanging up the phone, feeling unusually irritated. Rosaline would turn to him every three days after making trouble now. If it were not for the fact that he was now cooperating with her father and currently needs the support of Caesar Woods, he wouldn’t take time to bother with this.
“Louis, call and tell Captain Reid to go to West Main Street.”
Kingsley rubbed his temples, feeling somewhat psychologically tired.
In fact, he was quite out of control many times. And the reason why his company could expand all the way to its current size was actually related to the support from Caesar Woods. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Kingsley to achieve this with his identity as the son of a corrupt official.
At that time, his grandfather, Brock Baxter, announced at the first time after his son’s accident that he had severed the father-son relationship with him. And from then on, everything that Barton Baxter did had nothing to do with the Baxter family.
It did take Kingsley a lot of effort to be where he was now.
As soon as he picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the document, there came his mother’s call. Kingsley picked up the phone, “What is it, Mom?” His voice indicated that he was quite a bit tired
“Oh, look at you. You’re so busy that you forgot about your birthday. I sent you something. Go home early tonight.”
“Oh, good!”
Anna Pearl seemed to be in a good mood as she pursed her lips, “Remember to celebrate your birthday with your cute wife!”
Kingsley hooked his lips, thinking in secret that that woman surely wouldn’t remember it.
But he still said, “I’ll go back home early.”
Rosaline waited for a long time and didn’t see Kingsley arrive. Instead, the traffic police were here.
Captain Reid had asked Kingsley before coming here. According to Kingsley, he should deal with the issue as it should be dealt with.
Neither Rosaline nor Karina was easy to deal with. Especially, Karina, she was quite narrow-minded. Although Jayden had been in jail for four years, Karina still intended to ask someone to go to the prison to beat him up!
Rosaline approached Karina and said in a bureaucratic manner, “I am warning you now that you should stay away from Kingsley. Do you hear me?”
Karina sneered, “How are you connected to him?”
Karina squinted and smiled. And her smile made Rosaline feel that chillness was creeping upon her spine. But she straightened her back and didn’t back down, “Kingsley and I are going to get married. Didn’t you know that?”
“Are you? Well, I’d like to see whether you guys can make it.”
Nora remained silent all the time. And her eyes were a little blank. There was no telling as to what she was thinking about.
Karina called someone over to drive the car away for repair. She opened the backseat door and found that Nora’s cake had rolled under the seat.
She quickly reached out to fish the cake out. And Nora stood right behind her and glanced at it as she asked, “Was it ruined?”
Karina dared not speak and just silently handed the box in her hand to Nora.
It was a six-inch cupcake, which was beautifully made. Nora had spent an afternoon making it and had put a lot of effort into it. But now her efforts were all in vain.
Karina held her hand very hard, “Come on. Don’t let that little bitch named Rosaline Woods have her way.”
Nora’s hands and feet were cold. And the smile on her face was an empty one, “Karina, I’m not going to do the spa. I’ll go back first.”
Karina sighed.
By the time Nora was home, Rachel had prepared a table of food. Nora was afraid that she didn’t have time and let Rachel prepare the food in advance.
She put the cake on the table and opened it. As expected, the cake had fallen apart with its whole layer broken. And the decoration on the top was in pieces. While the box was covered with cream.
As Rachel saw this, she was shocked. Then she hurriedly asked, “How did this happen?”
Nora covered her face and hid the aggravation in her eyes, feeling overwhelmingly exhausted. Then she said, “Throw it away!”
“Don’t!” Rachel was very sorry for her, “You made this by yourself, Madam.”
“Since it’s like this, it is useless. Throw it away!”
Seeing that Rachel did not move, Nora was about to go forward and threw it away personally. Of course, Rachel couldn’t stand it and protected the cake in her arms, “Madam, if so, can you give it to me? My granddaughter has not eaten this kind of cream cake yet!”
Nora took a deep look at her. She couldn’t hold back the sourness in her eyes as she shook her head, “Rachel, this cake has been ruined like this. I’ll buy one for your granddaughter next time. I won’t keep this one!”
Before Rachel could say something, Nora took the cake over and then threw it into the large trash can in the kitchen. It took her nearly half a day to make this cake. And now it was ruined and trampled like this. She sniffed her nose and went upstairs.
Staring at the awful cake in the trash can, Rachel sighed and wondered how the cake had been ruined so badly.
After an hour, Kingsley also returned. He threw the car key towards the round table and asked, “Where is Nora?”
“Madam is upstairs!”
“Let her come down for dinner.”
Rachel went upstairs and came down after a while, saying that Nora said she wasn’t hungry and didn’t want to eat anything.
Kingsley didn’t say anything. Then he quickly walked up the stairs.
He pushed the door to Nora’s room open and saw that Nora was sitting on a cane chair and reading books on the balcony. At that time, the sun was setting down. As the golden sunlight shone on her, she looked inexplicably tender and gentle.
Kingsley gazed at her and walked over.
