What a Lame excuse! I doubted Riley would believe a word I said.


    But I really couldn’te up with a better excuse on the spot.


    All the office staff knew that I often went to Adam’s office.


    They probably knew about my rtionship with him.


    They all looked at me with open disdain.


    “Oh, is that so? Is that really the case?”


    Riley looked very calm.


    Even though so many people were staring straight at her, she barely flinched.


    “Then since you don’t know when and where you lost the earring, why did you assume that Debra stole it?”


    I didn’t know how to respond to that.


    But Riley refused to let me go.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    Instead, she narrowed her eyes at me slightly and continued, “You’ve used Debra of doing something she didn’t do more than once.


    ”


    Riley’s voice was still calm and gentle, but I felt there was a sharp de hidden in it.


    “Please apologize to her right now and promise you won’t make things difficult for her again.


    ”


    I was shocked.


    How could Riley fight against me for Debra?


    Wasn’t she supposed to be a pushover?

    And this was the second time she had sided with that bitch!


    I bit my lip angrily and clenched my fists in silence.


    Damn it!


    What the hell did Debra do to make Riley so protective of her?


    And that damned Caleb-he must’ve also been bewitched by her!


    “Well? Don’t you have something you want to say?”


    Riley’s gentle but domineering voice brought me back to my senses


    I nced around and noticed that everyone, including Riley and Debra, was staring at me.


    Their eyes were full of disgust and anticipation, as though they were holding a silent trial for me.


    It felt so suffocating.


    I had half a mind to ask Adam toe to my rescue, but I quickly decided against it.


    The bastard only cared about himself.


    Even if I asked him for help, he’d only force me to apologize.


    I was left with no choice.


    “Fine! I’m sorry, Debra,” I said through gritted teeth.


    In front of everyone, I bowed my head and apologized to her.


    “I was wrong.


    I shouldn’t have used you.


    I won’t do it again.


    ”
