From Ashes of Scandals to His Embrace novel Chapter 147

“See, Laurinda? Even your classmates think I’m right. You should just hand over Florrie’s inheritance. If you give me the rest, I’ll let go of what you already spent.”

Laurinda couldn’t help laughing at how shameless Bella was. She had to admit, Jeniffer really outdid herself by finding someone this stubborn.

“I can give you money.”

Harden squeezed through the crowd, holding out a black credit card to Bella.

“There’s two million dollars on this card. Take it, and leave. This isn’t the place for your drama.”

He shoved the card into Bella’s hand and turned to Laurinda, trying to look all soft and concerned.

Laurinda almost gagged. She rolled her eyes, completely done with his self-important attitude.

“The police are here. Move aside, everyone, let them through!”

At the sound of that, students and teachers quickly stepped back, giving the police a clear path.

Bella suddenly looked panicked. She gripped the credit card tightly and glared at Laurinda.

“You… you really called the police?”

“You waved a knife around. Why wouldn’t I? This is a society with laws. It’s my right to protect myself with them. Did you think I was hanging around here for fun?”

The second Bella picked up the knife, Laurinda had already called her police contact. She knew he’d get what was really going on. They had that kind of understanding.

He walked into the office and saw Bella with a knife at her throat while Laurinda stood calmly nearby.
