Chapter 80
"Phoebe, it''s time to go home."
After Tom repaired the car, he drove over to pick up Phoebe from work.
Phoebe did not hear him and continued to walk forward, looking absent-minded.
There happened to be a small pit ahead. Phoebe stepped on it and identally stumbled and bumped
into a woman in heavy makeup. She was applying lipstick when it happened, so she got the lipstick on
her face instead.
The woman was furious and scolded, "You''re blind, aren''t you?"
Phoebe, who was distracted, was immediately woken up. Seeing that she had done something wrong,

she quickly apologized, "I''m sorry. I was thinking about something and didn''t pay attention to where I
was going. It was all my fault."
"What do I need your apologizing for? You''ve ruined my makeup. I''m on my way to an important
business meeting!" The other woman crossed her waist, her face full of sarcasm and bitterness. She
pointed at Phoebe''s nose and cursed. Her saliva flew everywhere. You could tell at a nce that she
was one of those uncivilized women. "I''m telling you, you need to pay for my loss immediately, or I
won''t spare you!"
Phoebe frowned. She felt a little regretful. Why was she distracted when she was walking just now?
Now that she got into trouble, it made her even more upset, especially when so many people were
watching, which made her very embarrassed. She was a thin-skinned person, and she didn''t like to be
surrounded, so she had to say, "It''s my fault for ruining your makeup. How much do you want?"
A surprise shed through the woman''s eyes and she reached out a finger. "This number."
"A thousand dors?" Phoebe frowned slightly. It was a little too much. She just bumped into her gently,
and the lipstick barely scratched her face. It could easily be wiped off with a tissue, far from ruining her
makeup. Besides, judging by her temperament and clothes, she probably worked at a club, so it was
impossible that she was telling the truth. However, it was indeed her fault. Phoebe was not an
unreasonable person, so she took out her phone from her purse and said, "I don''t have that much cash
on me. I''ll transfer it to you."
However, the other party said disdainfully, "A thousand dors? Do I look a beggar to you? I meant one
hundred thousand dors!"
"One hundred thousand!" Phoebe suddenly cried out in a low voice. It was totally unreasonable. No!
This was more than unreasonable, but extortion.
The crowd around them also eximed. One hundred thousand dors, that was too much.
"That''s right. One hundred thousand dors. Not a penny less or I''ll make you feel sorry for it." The
heavily made-up woman said threateningly.
Phoebe gritted her teeth and said, "It''s just a little lipstick on your face. Just wipe it off with a tissue. It''s
100,000 dors you are asking for. That is ckmail!"
The heavily made-up woman''s face darkened. "Extortion? Bitch, watch your mouth! You really don''t
have no respect for me, Sister Thirteen, do you? You bumped into me first and caused me to lose a
important business. I just ask for 100,000 dors now. How dare you use me of extortion? I guess
you need a lesson to know who I am!"
She walked over with a grim smile, raised her hand and was about to p Phoebe''s face in a quite
arrogant manner.
Phoebe had always been well-behaved since she was a child. She had never been in a fight and only
had few quarrels. So in this case, she immediately turned pale with fear. She did not even know to
dodge and stood still waiting for iting.
At this moment, a big hand suddenly appeared and urately grabbed the hand of the heavily made-
up woman. "How dare you hit someone on the street?"
It was Tom. When he came out of the crowd and saw that the other party was going to hit Phoebe, he
immediately became angry.
Phoebe thought there was no way to avoid it. Now that she saw Tom appear and save her, she was in
a daze for a moment.
The woman with heavy makeup was stopped by Tom, and her face suddenly changed. "Who are you,
you little punk? How dare you stop me? You''re looking for death, aren''t you?"
As she spoke, she raised her leg and aimed for Tom''s lower body viciously, intending to cripple Tom
directly. Her reaction was very fast and her strength was stronger than ordinary women. Obviously, she
fought often. If Tom hadn''te to pick up Phoebe from work early, Phoebe alone would have suffered
a lot.
Tom snorted coldly and blocked it with his knee. With a bang, the other party kicked Tom''s knee hard
and immediately cried out in pain, "Oh, my God, it hurts! How dare you hit me! You are a dead man
now!"
She had just hit her calf on Tom''s knee, and it hurt so much that tears came out of her eyes. She stared
at Tom and Phoebe angrily and viciously. She immediately took out the phone and made a call, "Logan,
After putting down the phone, she red at Phoebe and Tom fiercely. "You two bitch, wait for it. My
men areing soon. I''ll be damned if you don''t get your asses kicked!"
Phoebe was frightened. She quickly grabbed Tom by the arm and said, "Oh no, we''re in trouble. Let''s
run!"
"It''s okay. I''m here. Don''t worry." Tom patted Phoebe''s hand and said.
At this moment, a person came out of the crowd. It was Elizabeth. She saw Tom and Phoebe, frowned,
and said, "What are you two doing here? Tom, didn''t you go to fix the car? Was it done?"
"Mom, the car is fixed. It''s right there." Tom pointed to a car on the side of the road.
"Then let''s go. Why are you standing here? Why are you surrounded by so many people? What
happened?" Elizabeth asked curiously. She had juste down from thepany and had not seen
what had happened.
Phoebe gritted her teeth and was about to speak when a voice came from the crowd. "I remember now.
Isn''t this Phoebe from the Scott Family? That man is the son-inw who lives in the Scott Family."
These words suddenly surprised many people and they began to talk about it.
As a matter of fact, the Scott Family was not a powerful family. It was no match for the Gablehausers or
the Knights , not to mention one of the most powerful, the Howard Family
But Scott Family''s reputation was not small at all, mainly because of Phoebe and Tom.
Because Phoebe was a famous beauty, from the beginning of high school, after the young girl grew up,
there were many suitors around her, many of them rich children. Everyone thought that Phoebe would
marry into a rich family, but in the end, Phoebe did not marry anyone rich. Instead, she married a poor
boy from the countryside, who was hopeless and aplete loser.
It got wild immediately and many people had heard about it even if they hadn''t seen the two of them.
"That exins a lot now. That''s why you look so familiar. It turns out that you are really Phoebe and her
useless husband. Hahaha, this is going to be fun!"
"From what I just heard, she called herself Sister Thirteen. It sounds like she is not someone to be
trifled with!"
"That''s right. She seems to be Jeremias''s woman!"
"What? Jeremias, isn''t he the big shot here? It''s over. Phoebe is in trouble now..."
