Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 94

Outside, the two middle-aged men were arguing with each other, seemingly as if it had something to do with their cars. The man who was talking looked confident, and he looked unconvinced even when he was the one who crashed into the other person’s car.

Looking at the man, Elspeth found him familiar. When she thought about it, she realized that it was Houston, who had disappeared for a long time. At this moment, the clothes on his body looked as though they had been brought from the flea market. Moreover, his self-confidence was gone, and he was left with the philistinism of a lower rank citizen. Elspeth felt pity when she looked at him, but she knew he had probably put himself in such a situation, so she didn’t think much about it.

However, when Houston turned around and saw her, an idea came to his mind. At that moment, he dashed forward, pointed at Elspeth, and said, “This is my wife, and she will pay for it. I don’t have any money!” After all, he was in this state because of her, so he wanted payback by making her lose some money.

When the man heard his words, he seemed to have believed it and walked toward Elspeth. “Are you his wife? Alright, then. My car has been damaged, and it was worth around a million when I bought it. Do you want to pay me through PayPal or by cash?”

Listening to his words, Elspeth smirked coldly and answered, “I don’t have anything to do with him. You should

ask him to pay you when he’s the one who damaged your car.”

“How can you be so insolent?” the man said. He knew that Houston would not have any money with that

appearance of his, so he wanted to blame Elspeth for it. Who knew he might get some money out of her?

Seeing that Elspeth didn’t budge, the man suddenly sat on the ground and cried for justice. “Look, everyone! This woman’s husband crashed into my car, and she won’t compensate me. This is just wrong!”

At that moment, many people surrounded them and whispered to each other. Some were giving snarky comments, whereas some felt pity for the man.

On the other hand, Elspeth decided to ignore the man and looked at Houston. “It’s been months since we last saw each other, Mr. Bishop. I can see that you are getting more and more shameless as time passes,” she said.

Seeing that he was no longer involved in the matter, Houston smiled and said, “I know that you are a kind person, Miss Lynwood. Why don’t you help me pay for it? After all, I’m broke.”
