Richard held his hands and looked at Anna coldly while she was crying. However, he didn’t ask why she was crying or advise her.
When Anna saw Richard acting this way, she knew that things were not going well. Hence, she started crying harder because she became anxious.
On the other hand, Helen was still standing far away from Richard, but she still heard Anna sobbing from the living room. Therefore, she thought that Richard had dealt with Anna already.
She immediately rushed over and said, “Richard, you…”
However, Helen stopped midway through her sentence. At this time, Anna was standing by the car while weeping. However, Richard had crossed his hands while standing about three meters away from her. Right now, he looked at Anna coldly, so anyone could tell that he couldn’t deal with Anna himself.
After that, Helen looked at Richard in confusion while asking, “Richard, what’s wrong with her?”
“What’s wrong with her? Bah, she’s just acting! She likes to pretend to be pitiful, doesn’t she?” Richard replied faintly, “Anna, your tears are too fake! You should work harder! In fact, you should cry lounder and scream all you want while rolling on the floor! This way, your performance will be more captivating as the audience will understand how you’re feeling!”
Anna secretly complained in her heart. She sobbed and said, “Richard… you… How could you do this? I… I was bullied today! Boohoo… that man… fucking tou… touched me…”
However, Richard looked at her coldly and did not speak. After all, he did not believe that Anna would be bullied at all.
However, Helen was different. Anna was a girl, and she was so beautiful. Therefore, someone could’ve bullied her indeed.
Thus, she immediately said, “Anna! Tell me! Who bulled you?”
“I don’t know who he is, but he seems that he is a man of high status. He is quite good-looking, but his attitude is horrible! That man has been trying to pick me up in the restaurant, and he has been harassing me since then. I wanted to call the police, however, the manager of the restaurant came out to stop me. Furthermore, he was trying to even help him, so I had no other choice but to leave unhappily.”
“Is that true?” Helen was a little angry after hearing this, but she was still a little suspicious. After all, why didn’t Anna didn’t mention that she had been bullied when they had been talking on the phone?
Besides, since someone dared to bully Anna, the latter should have called her as soon as possible. Why did she have to come back and cry instead?
When Anna saw Helen looking at her suspiciously, she sobbed and pointed at her clothes while saying. “Auntie, look at my clothes! They’re all covered with juice now! Look! This can prove that the man was harassing me just now!”
Well, Anna had accidentally splashed some of the juice on her dress while she was trying to spill the juice over Raymond. However, she decided to use this situation in her favor instead.
Helen didn’t believe Anna’s words at first, but when she saw the juice on the latter’s clothes, she believed her immediately. Then, she looked at Richard and said, “Richard, this matter…”
On the other hand, Richard frowned and looked at the stains on Anna’s body. Was Anna someone who would allow others to bully her like that?
No! He did not believe it at all. Then, he asked Anna flatly, “Where did you get bullied?”
“At Menate Restaurant,” Anna replied by telling him the name of the restaurant. “They have surveillance cameras. Richard, if you don’t believe me, you can check them.”
Richard didn’t believe her words at all, but he trusted her after hearing Anna saying the restaurant’s name and asking him to check the security cameras there.
“Okay, don’t cry! I’ll arrange for someone to check the surveillance footage right away. If you’re telling the truth, I won’t spare the guy!”
Well then, the matter about Anna sneaking out by driving the car secretly ended just like that. Hence, Anna sighed in relief and returned to her room.
After closing the door, Anna let out a sigh of relief. Just now, in the restaurant, she insisted on calling the police. Hence, the restaurant manager had to put in a good word for her. Besides that, he even decided that she didn’t have to pay for that meal, and she would also have a 20% discount at the restaurant whenever she returned to eat there.
Lastly, Anna also saved the restaurant manager’s phone number. Now, it was the perfect time to use it. After all, she couldn’t let Richard go to the restaurant to check the surveillance. At that time, Richard would definitely see that she was the one who took the initiative to provoke him.
Hence, she quickly found the restaurant manager’s phone number in the contacts list and dialed it. “You need to keep the surveillance video tonight well. My brother, Richard, will send someone to check it out soon. When the time comes, that bastard will bully me.”
The restaurant manager was shocked when he heard these words. Initially, he had found Anna’s face unfamiliar, and he didn’t know this person as well. However, when he heard the waiter say that Anna had driven a limited edition sports car worth millions of dollars, he had guessed that Anna was the daughter of a wealthy family.
Well, he had to be careful when serving the daughters of wealthy families, so he came forward to apologize to Anna and give her a discount.
Now, he finally found out that Anna was Richard’s relative. Of course, he couldn’t offend Richard’s relative.
The manager didn’t know about what had happened in the restaurant today. During the whole process, he saw that Miss Taylor had called Raymond the pervert, so that latter had been embarrassed thoroughly.
The manager saw how good-looking Anna was, so he thought that a lady like her wouldn’t humiliate someone in public for no reason. Hence, he had subconsciously believed that Mr. Saunders had done something to her.
So, he had been helping Raymond to put in a good word. Later, Anna left without saying anything, so he thought this entire case was over. However, he did not expect that Anna would suddenly call him and tell him that Richard would watch the surveillance video to check what had happened today.
If Richard really came to the surveillance camera to see what had happened in the restaurant, he would definitely look for Raymond to express his anger.
The manager couldn’t offend either the Saunders family or the Clark family. However, it appeared that Anna didn’t know who Raymond was, so the incident should end here.
After that, the restaurant manager thought that he should immediately arrange for someone to make a copy of the surveillance video and then delete it. Soon, it didn’t take long for Richard’s men to arrive at his restaurant.
The manager took Richard’s staff to the surveillance, and the staff in charge of the monitoring room told them that there was something wrong with the monitoring line of the restaurant today. It had been under repair the whole day, but it still couldn’t work yet.
Richard’s men sneered when they heard this. “Hah! How could your surveillance cameras spoil today? What a coincidence!”
The manager smiled and replied,”What a coincidence indeed.”
“Okay, then I have something to ask you. Today, we heard that someone had been harassing one of your guests in the restaurant today. I’m sure that you know the people involved in this, right?”
“Well… I’m not sure about that.” The manager shook his head.
“You don’t know anything? Alright then!” Richard’s subordinate sneered. It was obvious that the manager was working with the other party. It meant that the other party had a powerful background.
Hence, Richard’s men didn’t ask any more questions. As they left, they said, “I will come back again. When I come by again, maybe the restaurant will close down.”
After hearing this, the manager touched the cold sweat on his forehead and sent Richard’s men out with a smile.
Once he saw that Richard’s men had driven away, he immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. “Mr. Saunders, something bad has happened!”
