Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 36 Brouhaha at The Party

Violet tried to rebut, but the words got stuck in her throat as it suddenly hit her that she needed to make

a living in JA City after all. If she offended Ruth, she was going to have a tough time.

"Carla, I want Terence. If he's here, they would not be able to treat us like that,"

whimpered Sean.

Carla instantly snuggled her little brother, giving him a pat on the back, saying, "Don't worry, Sean.

You've got me right here. I can protect you. We don't need anyone's help."

Carla stood up after she said those words, letting go of Sean.

"Ruth, apologize to me and my brother now! This is an opportunity to offer you a way to step down."

The other party-goers got frozen in place, their jaw dropped open. They couldn't believe what they just

heard, and burst into laughter when they came to their senses.

"Oh, boy. You're really funny! Ruth, did you hear what she just said?

"She asked you to apologize to her and the poor little boy. This is so hilarious!"

Ruth also chuckled after hearing Carla say those words. Glancing over at Carla, she replied with a cold

sneer on her lips, "Carla, I will offer you an opportunity as well. Apologize to me! Right now and in front

of everyone! Admit that what you said just now is bullshit. Then I will consider forgiving you. What do

you say?"

"Yeah, you need to know your place! Ruth is being so kind as to give you a chance to apologize. You

have no idea what could've happened if it were others."

While Ruth was still wearing a smirk, a glass of red wine was suddenly thrown into her face.

The glistening scarlet fluid dripped over her face into her pink-white Channel dress. The wine stain was

so conspicuous and easy to spot!

"Ahhh!" Ruth screamed. Rushing toward Carla, Ruth tried to reach her and slap in her face.

Quickly taking one step backward, Carla was able to dodge her hand and get around her. She deftly

took up another glass of red wine on the desk and spilled it on Ruth's back this time.

"Ruth, your dress was not pretty enough. I just added some color onto it."

Carla gazed upon her pink-red dress, nodding in her satisfaction, feeling quite amused.

"You look gorgeous in it now. Red and black, just like the heartless person that you are."

Feeling cold at once, Ruth was fuming with anger. She turned around and glared at Carla with

murderous intent in her eyes.

"Carla! I will make you regret what you did today! How stupid this is!

I'll make sure you're going to be washed up in JA City, and soon, you would not be able to survive by

yourself even in BH City!"

Ruth looked perplexed, her face twitched.

The door suddenly flung open as Ruth was throwing those threats at her.

Ruth's expression became tender when she saw who was entering the room. The resentment that was

on her face instantly subsided. She seemed so gentle and soft now, stretching out her arms toward the

guest who just arrived, teary-eyed.

"Rhys! Thank god you're here now,"Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

sobbed Ruth. She got misty-eyed and had an aggrieved expression, making all men want to just hold

her or even kiss her and tell her everything was going to be okay.

"Ruth, what's wrong with you? What happened?"

asked Rhys, frowning upon the pitiable sight of his girlfriend. He took off his suit to cover Ruth as he

saw her looking so confused and embarassed.

Pointing a quivering finger at Carla, "Rhys, it's her. She gave me a hard time back in the school. And

today, she even got the audacity to throw red wine on my dress in front of everyone here... She

humiliated me!"

said Ruth, holding Rhys so tight that her curved body clung close to him.

Rhys gave her a pat on the back to comfort her and said, "I see. You don't have to cry. You are the

girlfriend of mine. No one can dare to insult you. No one has the power!"

Then, He turned to Carla, giving her a look from head to toe. Carla wore cheap clothes today and her

brother Sean was hiding right behind her.

"Take the boy to the next room. I don't want to hurt him!"

Rhys ordered, with his body guards walking in immediately. One of them took Sean and exited the

room.

"NO, NO! Take your hands off of me! Carla, help me! Help me!" cried Sean as he kept hitting the guard

who was taking him out.

"Sean..."

Seeing Sean being taken out, Carla tensed up. She rushed toward Sean, but was stopped by two

guards.

"Ruth! Let Sean go! Come straight at me. Don't take it out on an innocent kid!" Carla screamed at Ruth,

with the latter now being held by Rhys in his arms.

"Take it easy. I won't do anything to your brother. I just don't want him to see this," said Rhys. He patted

Ruth on the shoulder and let out a devilish grin, "Ruth, don't be afraid. Remember what this woman just

did to you? Do it the same way to her now! Oh, as a matter of fact, double it!"

Hearing it from Rhys, Ruth stopped crying. She glanced at Carla, "Rhys, I'm afraid the wine here won't

be enough for me to pour," said Ruth. She saw the two bottles of wine left, then looked at Rhys with

alluring eyes, pretending to be angry.

Rhys laughed, grabbing her chin and kissing her, and he said, "That's easy. Bring me two boxes of

wine! Make sure Ruth has a good time tonight!"

Pulling Rhys away shyly, Ruth walked toward Carla with a fierce smile. She held half a bottle of wine in

her hand, shook it first, and made sure the color was even.

"I told you Carla, you will be washed up. And this is just the beginning,"

mocked Ruth. She glanced at the wine, suddenly felt something was wrong. Pouring such an

expensive bottle of wine on Carla would be much too wasteful. And it was just too good for her. So, she

turned to Rhys, "Rhys, this bottle of red wine is way too expensive. It would be such a waste to use it

on her. How about using hard liquor. Bring me another box of liquor! The stronger, the better!"

"Are you crazy? Liquor is dangerous. You're taking this too far, Ruth!" said Violet. She had stayed silent

for a while, but couldn't take it anymore.

Violet used to be a nurse, so she knew some basic medical theory. A small quantity of liquor was good

for fever, but it would be quite dangerous to pour a lot on a person, especially someone with an open

wound.

"Violet, who do you think you are? How dare you tell me what to do? Shut the fuck up! Or else, I'll give

you a liquor shower too."

Ruth stared at Violet grimly.

Carla was looking quite pale. Smiling at Violet, she sincerely said, "Thank you, Violet. I appreciate it!

Just leave me alone. I'll be fine."

She should've held herself back a little more. If she did, things might not have been this worse.

'Why didn't I just bear with it? Why did I have to break out?' she asked herself.

But involving Sean in their argue was the last straw. As his sister, she couldn't stand someone insulting

him right in front of her.

Within a few moments, a big box of strong liquor was sent to the room by Rhys's bodyguards.

Ruth went over with a sneer, making them open every single bottle. All of a sudden, the room was

fumigated with the smell of alcohol. The more uncomfortable people felt, the more wildly Ruth laughed.

"Hold her tight and open her mouth now!"

said Ruth. She walked toward Carla, with one hand holding red wine, the other liquor. As she was

laughing, she said, "Don't waste them. It would be more fun to drink and soak them all, isn't it, Carla?"

She was preparing to pour the two bottles on her head while speaking.

The liquor and wine were just about to flow down along...
