Enchanted By His Charm

Chapter 142 142: Don’t Speak So Blindly

Her cold stare made Shirley mad, "Who seduced a man with a wife?"

"Your daughter. It's true that I seduced Joseph, but I'm still single. But your daughter still seduces other men while she is married. I just wonder who she learned it from."

Shirley was not silly, actually. She guessed that there was something hidden from her, so she just pulled Ruby beside her, "Tell me the truth. What this woman blurted out is a lie, right?"

Ruby was still shocked after hearing Irish's brutal words, shaking violently.

"Aren't you a good friend of Emery? You don't want her to be happy?" Irish laughed, "Or do you think that since Joseph doesn't love you at all, you feel unwilling to witness your confidant's happiness. You exert much effort to emphasize that you are still attractive by seducing her husband, right?"

She said this with a voice full of spite.

All her courage to attack Ruby with these words came from a coincidental meeting in the street one day. That day, on the way back home, she saw Ruby through the window as the car stopped at a red light. It was not at the peak time of the afternoon, so there were not many pedestrians on the road. Ruby's actions became highlighted as a result.

She was talking with a couple. Because of the distance, Irish couldn't make out what she was saying, but her excitement could be grasped. Feeling strange, Irish took a few more glances at them, and then a shocking scene took place. Ruby slapped the woman, and soon the woman cried, held by the man tightly, then the man gave Ruby a slap.

Ruby soon got mad, rushing to hit that woman but was pushed away by the man ruthlessly. Then Ruby prepared to attack the man.

Irish felt totally astonished at this scene, and she turned around subconsciously, finding Joseph looking unhappy. She was going to laugh at him since he seemed to have been betrayed by his wife, but Joseph got out immediately. He just walked straight toward Ruby with a cold look on his face. Ruby still struggled as she saw him come, but he pulled Ruby away and frowned.

She didn't know what Joseph said to the man, but at last, the couple left, while Ruby hadn't stopped crying. This scene made people all-around look at them. She saw Joseph's helpless facial expression and Ruby crying in his bosom.

That day she didn't wait for Joseph to come back again but left silently.

Afterward, Ruby offered to meet her and asked something about Eric. It was true that Eric was one of her clients, and it was strange for Ruby to be concerned about him. Confused about it, Irish investigated them, and she found out that Eric's wife, Emery, was Ruby's good friend and that they got married after knowing each other for a short period of time. Eric had talked to Irish and mentioned that he loved his wife very much. Irish could infer that the couple had a good relationship, but she didn't understand why Eric came to see a psychologist.

Only when she combined these two facts did she figure everything out. Ruby had fallen in love with Eric, and it even could be inferred from Eric's words that Ruby had kept in contact with him after his marriage. Irish further inferred that Ruby had been married to Joseph at that time.

Irish had never told Joseph.

Never.

Today she told these things to them all because Shirley had been so aggressive that she was forced to retaliate.

"Eric doesn't love Emery at all. No…" Ruby clenched her fingers tightly, her voice breaking, and she stared at Irish directly, "If he really loved her, why did he have sex with me?"

This question shocked not only Shirley but also Irish. Her guess was correct that Ruby really had sex with Eric. She had also suspected that if it was just because of Ruby's harassment, Eric would not have seen a psychologist. And now the whole thing became clear. It was because he had had sex with Ruby that he felt guilty towards his wife. Sometimes guilt was like a knife that could kill, and when someone felt helpless, they could only ask others for help.

"Ruby!" Shirley stared at Ruby, seeming to have experienced a nightmare, "Don't speak so blindly, please."

Ruby clenched her dress tightly, seeming to be tolerant, while Irish sneered at Shirley's deceit and fear. Shirley was afraid that if Joseph heard about it, he would be incredibly angry. It was understandable. Now the Lake's all relied on Joseph, and if Joseph knew that his wife betrayed him, this marriage would not last much longer. Then who would manage the business of the Lake's? Their son-in-law would disappear.

"Irish, you know everything, right? You are clear about it, right?" Ruby stared at her suddenly, eyes full of cold tears. She called her name, gnashing her teeth as if to chew away Irish's life.

But Irish was not afraid of her at all. Irish sneered at her. She continued, "Of course, if they are in need, I can still be their counselor and help them work through these problems. Do you feel upset? You've had sex with him? So what? You won't get his love. It doesn't matter if you just abandon yourself, but don't try to teach me how to be moral. We are not the same because Joseph loves me, but you still lost your love by sacrificing your chastity. So remember, if you don't know how to protect yourself, do not blame that man for hurting you!"

"Shut up!" Ruby suddenly slapped her.

The slap came quickly and suddenly, and it was not in line with Ruby's usually gentle image. It fell on Irish's face with a loud sound, and immediately her right cheek became red.

Just at this time, the door was pushed open, and Joseph, coming back hurriedly, ran into this scene. He was startled for some time. Soon Cassie rushed in, as well as Lilith, surprised and confused.

As Cassie prepared to fight back against Ruby, another shocking scene took place.
