Chapter 11 You're as dirty as they are

When Arabella returned home, she even imagined that Ezra would call her after he knew she had looked for him. Unfortunately, as expected, the man still did not contact her.
Another sleepless night.
The next day, Arabella received a call from Grace Ruth again.
She felt a little strange, but she still tried to lift her spirits and asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"
Unexpectedly, Grace Ruth cried and said anxiously, "Arabella, what's going on between you and Ezra? I heard that he has been undermining our company recently. The cash chain of one of our important projects broke, and the company's stock has fallen to the limit!"
How is that possible!
"Mom, is what you said true?"
Arabella's hands and feet were cold, and even her breathing was sluggish.
She was no stranger to Ezra's ruthless and determined way of doing things, but she never imagined that he would use them on her family!
Her thin body trembled slightly, and she used all her strength to keep calm. She comforted, "Mom, don't worry. I will deal with this matter!"
Although Ezra did not like her and Ruth's family for three years of marriage, he would not attack Ruth's family.
The reason why he did this now was that he believed that she was the one who let Jack Smith destroy Beth Ruth, so he vent his anger to the entire Ruth's family?
No, she had to find him and ask him!
Arabella came to James' Group again. She ignored everyone's curious eyes and took the elevator directly to the floor where Ezra was.
She was stopped by the secretary again. The secretary looked embarrassed and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mrs.James, Mr. James is now... receiving guests. Why don't you come again in the afternoon?"
Arabella looked at his evasive eyes and knew what was going on. Beth Ruth was probably inside again.
But so what? Even if they were in bed, she would not leave!
"Get out of the way!"
Arabella opened the door of the office, and what she saw upset her.
In the spacious and bright office, Beth Ruth was nestled in Ezra's arms, holding the phone and looking at something. The two talked and laughed.
The scene was warm and sweet, they were like a loving couple.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Arabella would never have imagined that Ezra, who had always been strict and restrained, would one day allow others to waste his work time and do this meaningless thing.
In the past, she had also come to his office to look for him, but every time, he would bury himself in his work and ignore her.
But now, he was willing to put down what he was doing and play with Beth Ruth...
Arabella held the door so tightly that her fingers were white. She had carefully guessed the thoughts of this man for so many years and thought that if she did not do something he did not like, she could get closer to him.
But in fact, as long as Beth Ruth wanted to, his so-called principles could be changed easily.
Realizing that the office door had opened, Ezra looked over in dissatisfaction. Her expression changed instantly and he shouted in a low voice, "Who let you in? Get out!"
Arabella did not move. Her body trembled slightly, but the man couldn't see.
Beth Ruth also looked over curiously. When she saw that it was Arabella, the corners of her mouth immediately raised into a smile. "Sister, why are you here?"
"Ezra, I have something very important to ask you!" Arabella forced herself to ignore Beth Ruth and slowly walked in, staring at the man who had vowed to love her deeply for the rest of his life.
Her hands clenched tightly into fists. She raised her voice and asked, "I heard that Ruth's Group's capital chain was maliciously suppressed, and even its shares were manipulated by someone. Is it you who did all this?"
Her voice was weak but firm.
Ezra released Beth Ruth and stood up. His gaze was magnanimous and sarcastic. "So what if it is me?"
Arabella stopped breathing for a few seconds and looked at him in disbelief. "Why did you do this?"
"Why?" The man smiled cruelly, his eyes as cold as a wolf's. "This is what they deserve!"
As if thinking of something unbearable, Ezra's eyes gradually turned red. "What kind of parents will give birth to what kind of daughter! You are just like them, extremely dirty!"
Arabella looked at him in a daze, couldn't believe what he said. "What are you talking about?"
"I don't believe that you don't know how many dirty things your parents have done secretly!" He approached Arabella step by step, and his tone was as cold as if it came from hell. "The death of my parents is related to your father. I will make your Ruth's family pay with blood!"
Arabella felt that there was a sudden buzzing sound in her ears.
Her face was pale, and she shook her head gently. "I don't believe it. My father will never do such a thing!"
Her father had always been upright and kind. How could he do such a heinous thing?
"Sister, do you really know about Uncle Ruth?" Beth Ruth suddenly stood up and said softly, "Uncle Ruth has always been hypocritical. I heard him curse James'family several times behind our back and he saw James' Group as a thorn in the flesh. Why don't you think about it carefully? Why does he not want you to marry Ezra? He must be worried that his weakness will fall on James' family and he will be pinned down from now on..."
"Enough!" Arabella interrupted her harshly. Her eyes were bloodshot with shock and anger, and she was furious.
It was only then that she truly realize how ungrateful Beth Ruth was, she is a great lier.
She used Jack Smith to splash dirty water on her, but now she dared to frame her father so casually!
"Beth Ruth, do you still have any conscience? My parents kindly picked you up from the orphanage and treated you so well. They treated you like their own daughter, and you treated them like this?"
Seeing her reaction was so intense, Beth Ruth was secretly pleased.
She seemed to be frightened by Arabella. She shrank into Ezra's arms and argued with tears in her eyes, "Sister, don't you know how I was being treated in Ruth's family? Uncle Ruth adopted me just to keep you company. He has never treated me as his own daughter... In Ruth's family, what's the difference between me and your servants? I endured all this. After all, Ruth's family has raised me for so many years. I should be grateful, but..."
After saying this, Beth Ruth paused, as if she remembered something bad, and burst into tears. "But how can you force me to marry an old man who is older than Uncle Ruth? Even if I am not Uncle Ruth's biological daughter, you can't treat me like this! If not for Ezra, my life would have been ruined..."
