When She Stops Playing Nice (Hale Saxon)

CHAPTER 228

Chapter 228 Gina took the bank card, and the woman asked, “Miss, I’ve returned the money to you. Is there anything else you need?” “Yes. I need to tell you something Gina paused and added, “Be mentally prepared.” The woman was frightened. “Miss, I’ve said we didn’t take a dime from that card, and we have nothing to delinquent. He stole your money, and I’ve returned it to you. Can’t you take your anger out on us earlier?” do with that “He didn’t steal the money.” The woman was stunned. ‘If he didn’t steal it, how w did by he get it? Gina explained, “The first thing I want to tell you is that Mike is already dead.” The moment the woman heard this, her legs went limp and she fell to the ground. Regardless of Mike’s behavior, she was his mother. She gave birth to him in October. Hearing the news of his death, she felt a heart-wrenching pain. The woman asked in a trembling voice, “What did you say? Is Mike dead?” Gina nodded and continued, “He didn’t steal the money. Someone paid him to kill me. He asked his employer for 2 dollars to rent a truck and an additional 10 dollars for gasoline. He planned to kill me, but he failed and lost his life in a sea of fire.” The woman couldn’t believe her ears. She grabbed her hair in despair and said, “How could this be? I thought he finally found a turning point in his life. Why did I give birth to such a son?” The woman broke down and apologized to Gina, “Miss, I’m so sorry, I didn’t want to. I didn’t want to give birth to such ascum! I didn’t educate him well. I apologize for what he did to you.” Gina knelt and comforted the crying woman. Then, she helped her to stand and said, “I don’t blame

you. I just came here to/ collect the money and tell you about his death.” Tears streamed down the woman’s face. “I should’ve aborted him back then!” Gina sighed. “I have another sensitive question. Do you mind if ask?” The woman nodded. “Ask me anything. “Did Mike contact you before he died? If he did, what did he say The woman thought about it carefully. “He did call me. He said that… he is successful and has made tons of money from foreign trade. He said he wants to send us money to return the favor and let us enjoy our life in our later years.” The woman looked pained. “His father and I were speechless. We were scared that he got the money from either stealing laundering. He was beyond our control. When we asked where he got the money, he didn’t explain and just hung up” The woman looked back at Cina and assured her, “But before he hung up, I scolded him. I said he was a scourge and warned him not to implicate me and my husband. We’ve disowned him, and it’s none of our business whether he lives or dies.” Cina frowned when she heard the woman mention about foreign trade. She believed it was Mike’s poor excuse to keep her mother from knowing the money’s source. “That’s just it. That’s all I know. The woman trembled in fear. I see, thank you for letting me know,” Gina said gently. Hearing her polite words, the woman felt increasingly guilty. “Miss, you’re too kind. Do, do you want to come in and have Soine tea?” 0. Chapter 228 “No thanks. I need to leave.”. “Okay.” The woman nodded, clearly relieved. Olivia returned to her rental and was about to close the door when she saw a figure on the stairs. She thought it was her neighbor upstairs and didn’t think much of it until the figure began to rush down the stairs. Upon seeing this, Olivia’s heart skipped a beat.

Just as she was about to close the door, the man had already held the door and forced his way in. Then, he slammed the door. He punched Olivia before she could see the man’s face. Weakened, she fell to the floor with blurry vision. She began to shout in fear, “Help!” The man immediately bent down and grabbed her neck. “Shut the f*ck up. Try shouting again and I’ll kill you!” Hearing his voice, Olivia could tell it was Ethan’s voice. She was no longer afraid. Instead, she said in exasperation, “What the f*ck is wrong with you? Are you going to kill me?” Ethan yelled, “I wish I could, you c’nt! You f*cking took my money and said you could kill Gina. You hired a man to kill her, yet you ask that man to look for me? Do you think I don’t know that you asked him to come? Do you think I’m a fool? Do you think you can hide from me with your tricks?” Ethan stood up and kicked Olivia’s stomach. She curled up in pain and said desperately, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about!” Ethan was still angry, He kicked Olivia’s stomach again and again while asking. “Are you playing dumb with me, B*tch? Go ahead! Continue pretending, and I’ll beat you to death” Olivia wanted to shout for help, but Ethan kicked Olivia’s mouth. She felt as if her jaw was dislocated. It was agonizing, Ethan vented all his pent-up anger on Olivia. As he was engrossed in beating her up, someone opened the door to Olivia’s flat. Afterward, that person threw a heavy blow to the back of his head. Ethan’s eyes widened before he fell to the floor, unconscious. Olivia gritted her teeth in pain and looked up. When she saw Mason’s figure, she didn’t expect that the cowardly man would be the one to save her life. “Mason, I, I’m hurt,” Olivia said weakly Mason was still in sh in shock. He didn’t even pay attention to what Olivia said. It wasn’t until Olivia called him again that he returned to his senses. However, Mason ignored Olivia’s cry for help. Realizing what he had done, he mumbled, “What do I do? I knocked Etha unconscious. When he wakes up, I know he’ll beat me up. What do I do?” Olivia was speechless. She thought Mason would show some concern for her and send her to a

hospital. But she didn’t expect him to chickened out. He was worried Ethan would take revenge on him. ‘Forget it! At least he saved my life today Olivia didn’t bother arguing with Mason. She said, “Didn’t you say you were going home after dropping me off? Why are yo here again?” Mason had hoped to be serious in his relationship with Olivia but was too embarrassed to confess his feelings. However, when Olivia gave him the spare key to her flat, he thought Olivia was hinting to him that she was willing to go further. Although Olivia didn’t invite him upstairs, Mason took the initiative to go up and prove his guess.
