The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 315 Asking Sky to Intervene

Wendy screamed as she was flung to the ground. Pain shot through her body, leaving her unable to move.

Even after slapping Wendy, Ivan's anger had not subsided. On his way to Goodwill Pharmacy, he had called Ruby, who had sounded scared and hesitant over the phone. That was when he realized something serious had happened.

When he arrived, Wendy had bombarded him with complaints about how poorly Goodwill Pharmacy treated them. Although her words annoyed him, he held back because of her connection to Julia.

He warned Wendy to watch her mouth and not make the situation worse. But the moment she stepped inside, she had completely ignored his warning.

Before Ivan could even apologize to Natalie, Wendy spewed insults that left him no choice but to deal with her harshly.

"Ruby, get in here!" Ivan barked, his chest heaving with frustration.

Over the years, he had doted on Julia and Ruby despite the widespread gossip labeling him a heartless man. He had ignored the insults since no one dared say them to his face.

But now, Wendy's reckless behavior had jeopardized his reputation again. If their rivals caught wind of her outburst, they would seize the opportunity to blow things out of proportion, just like last time.

Ruby timidly stepped inside. "Dad..."

Ivan slapped Ruby hard across the face. "Are you an idiot? Why did you let that madwoman out to cause trouble?"

He snapped, "You've humiliated me beyond measure! Now apologize to Ms. Walker and everyone at Goodwill Pharmacy!"

"Y-Yes, Dad," Ruby whimpered. She shuffled forward, tears streaming down her face, and gave Natalie a deep bow. "Ms. Walker, I'm so sorry. Please be the bigger person and forgive me and Wendy!"
