Playing Cute In Front Of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 227 

Amelia had successfully taken Katherine's bag.She immediately grabbed Carrick, who was currently in a daze and ran away.

Zoey, the vlogger who had followed Amelia, was dumbfounded at the unexpected turn of events.

No one had expected this! The audience watching the live stream had gotten into a heated discussion.

Some people said that Katherine was heartless.

She could afford a bag worth 120,000 dollars, yet she was too stingy and refused to help her own grandmother.

Others argued that Amelia was too unreasonable.

While some added that Carrick was useless since he encouraged his mother to shamelessly ask for money from his niece.

The audience had different opinions about the incident.

Gabrielle had managed to return with a security guard.

She stood there, perplexed at the case development.

She had only been gone for a short while, but the matter had escalated to such extent.

Even Katherine's bag had been stolen.

She glanced at Katherine, who was standing calmly, and noticed a faint smile on her face.

The smile did not reach her eyes, though, as they carried a cold glint in their depths.

For a moment, Gabrielle stood rooted on her spot, not daring to say a word.

Katherine shook Zack's hand off her shoulders and walked out.

Zack followed behind her and asked, "Where are you going?"

Katherine intended to go to the police station to report the case; however, she realized that her car key was inside the stolen bag after just taking two steps.

Katherine clicked her tongue in frustration.

This was definitely an oversight on her part.

She stopped and looked at Zack.

"I want to go to the police station; she stated.

Zack was momentarily startled before he responded, "My car is parked somewhere near.I can take you there."

"Thank you"

Katherine decided not to stand on ceremony with him and agreed.

"Wait for me by the side of the road.I'll drive over shortly"

Zack looked and Katherine intently and raised his eyebrows as if waiting for her acknowledgement.

Katherine nodded.

She lifted her hand to fix the loose strands of hair that fell on her forehead before walking toward the side of the road.

By now, Amelia and her good-for-nothing son had run away to the spacious square with the stolen bag.

Katherine patiently waited by the side of the road, and the icy look on her face gradually faded.Her rosy lips curved slightly into a faint smile.Her grandmother and uncle could have lived in peace.

However, her grandmother just had to provoke her.

Katherine resolutely decided that she would take action against them.She would fight them hereafter for both the new and old grudges.

The black Maybach came to a slow stop in front of her.

Katherine was about to reach out to open the door when Zack opened it from the inside.

Katherine was surprised by his action, and then she got into the car. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Thank you." Zack frowned at this.

"You have said thank you three times already."

"What about it?" Katherine curiously asked.

"If you are really sincere in thanking me, then have dinner with me later"

Katherine looked down on her phone to check the time.

After hearing his statement, she looked up at him and replied, "Don't misunderstand.I'm just being polite."

Zack was rendered speechless by her response.

The car stopped in front of the red light.

Zack glanced at Katherine and cautiously explained, "Although she stole your bag, Amelia is your relative, after all.When the police find out that she is your grandmother, they will most likely advise you to settle this matter privately"

Zack knew that Katherine deliberately provoked Amelia, so the latter resorted to snatching her bag.

Katherine was not embarrassed at all, even though Zack saw through her intentions.

"For a bag that's worth 120,000 dollars plus some cash, I don't think the police will treat this as an ordinary civil case,'' she said with confidence.

Zack intently stared at her pair of charming and alluring eyes, and his heart thumped uncontrollably.

His dark eyes darted as he spoke, "I know a lawyer in this area"

He thought to himself, "Why didn't I see Katherine's brilliance in the past?’ Sean was right.

He was probably blind.

Fortunately, he had awakened from his stupor.

Katherine's eyebrows raised in realization.

"Atty.Parson?"

She gently smiled as she said, "What a coincidence.I think I know him too"

Zack suddenly felt that he was useless.

"Yes, that's him"

At this time, Katherine's phone rang.

"It's green, Mr.Colburn’’ Katherine raised her finger and pointed at the stoplight.Zack could only withdraw his gaze from her and concentrate on driving.The call was from Celine.Since the altercation from earlier was broadcasted live, the internet had exploded, and the video had gone viral.
