“Mr. Hale, Ms. Aguilera really stole…”

“Shut up!”

Before Mara could finish her words, Heriberto angrily interrupted her. His unpleasant face instantly turned icy cold.

Mara looked at him and suddenly trembled all over.

“Iris and I aren’t divorced yet. You keep calling her a thief. Are you trying to slap me in the face?”

For some reason, Heriberto was beyond angry at that moment. He gritted his teeth and growled, each word dripping with rage.

Mara stared at him, completely terrified and frozen.

“What do you mean by stealing? Ms. Caine, tell me. What is stealing?”

He kept roaring, furious. “These things were hers to begin with. Why would she steal them?”

“M–Mr. Hale…” Mara was trembling all over and on the verge of tears.

“Put the items down and get out!” Heriberto roared again.

Mara nodded frantically, quickly put the items down, and dashed out as if escaping.

When she reached the door, her high heels tripped and she fell. But she didn’t dare to delay, quickly got up and ran out, vanishing from Heriberto’s sight.
