Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 576: Chapter 576: Humiliation and Anger

Ariel squinted her eyes, her gaze at the girl was sharp, and her words were piercing, instantly turning all the sympathy the girl had just received into accusation and distrust.

"Why aren’t you crying now? Isn’t this your forte? Is it because you’ve run out of tears to shed, or are you too guilty to cry? Should I have my sweetheart buy you some eye drops to moisten those dry eyes?" Ariel said sarcastically.

Someone in the crowd compared the girl’s current state to before and was surprised to find they were exactly the same, instantly gasping, and the look of amazement and pity in their eyes for the girl was gone.

The emotions the girl had just brewed were easily shattered by Ariel, and her momentum to go all out was easily disrupted by Ariel’s words. Now, it seemed she couldn’t even begin to cry.

Feeling the unkind stares from the people around, the girl took a deep breath and blinked her somewhat dry eyes, saying, "I don’t know why you have such a huge misunderstanding about me, but I haven’t done the things you just accused me of. I won’t admit to things I haven’t done. I can apologize for knocking down his book, but I won’t admit to any other unfounded accusations that have been placed on me."

The girl’s expression was firm. Things had reached this point; if she admitted her previous actions were to deceive their trust, she believed she couldn’t leave here unscathed. She didn’t want to bet on that possibility.

Ariel had a knowing look on her face, which sent a chill down the girl’s spine, but she couldn’t understand why Ariel suddenly laughed.

"Alright, then just apologize for knocking down my sweetheart’s book."

The girl thought there might be a fierce battle between her and Ariel, but unexpectedly Ariel seemed so reasonable. For a moment, her already busy mind had one more question to deal with, leaving her somewhat confused. She subconsciously apologized to Xu Ke as per Ariel’s words.
