My Destiny Is To Become Billionaire’s Wife

Chapter 33: Erica was arrested by the police at Ansel’s request



Ansel accidentally collided with Erica as she was walking with a tray holding two hot coffee cups. Once again, an accident occurred, but this time it was even worse when the hot coffee spilled onto Erica’s hand before splashing onto Ansel’s white shirt.

While Erica was extremely confused by the situation and felt a burning pain on the back of her hand, Ansel quickly took control of the problem. But instead of gently solving it, Ansel chose to make a fuss.

“What the heck is this? Did you do this on purpose?”

“What do you mean?” Erica genuinely didn’t understand what Ansel was implying.

“You spilled coffee on me. And it was hot coffee,” Ansel angrily accused Erica, blaming her. “What if I got burned? Are you going to take responsibility for that?”

“No, I didn’t do it on purpose. It was just… I’m sorry.” Erica stammered in defense, but Ansel didn’t want to listen. He was annoyed by Erica’s stalking, and now, with this incident, he saw an opportunity. Ansel wanted to exploit it to make Erica vanish from his life.

“Stop denying it,” Ansel insisted, determined to force Erica to admit fault.

“I didn’t…” Erica tried to defend herself, but Ansel didn’t allow it.

“That’s enough!” Ansel shouted loudly, startling Erica and even Nika.

“I told you to disappear from my sight. Why are you still lingering here? What do you want? Are you up to something malicious?” Ansel shouted angrily, glaring at Erica. Some nearby employees heard the noise and turned their attention toward them. Realizing that Ansel was attracting unwanted attention and risking a negative impression, Nika, concerned for both of them, wanted to intervene and help Ansel calm down.

“Ansel… Listen to me… First, you need to calm down.”

Nika quickly fails, as Ansel completely ignores him. When Ansel made the decision to drive Erica away, he was resolute. There was no way to make Ansel stop, even if Nika dared to intervene.

“What’s your motive for coming here?” Ansel continued to use a harsh tone towards Erica: “Speak quickly.”

“It’s just… I work here,” Erica stammered, explaining, but Ansel didn’t believe her reasoning.

“Shut up!” Ansel interrupted Erica’s attempt to speak. “Get out of here now. I don’t want to hear from you; all you’ve said is lies.”

“But I haven’t finished my shift,” Erica reasoned. “I can’t leave on my own accord.”

“I don’t care about that.” Ansel maintained his intimidating stance, glaring at Erica.

After a moment of panic, Erica regained control of her emotions. In a calm tone, she sincerely spoke up:

“I sincerely apologize for my carelessness. I didn’t do it intentionally. Regarding the incident just now, it was

“You’re fired.” Ansel once again interrupted Erica with a firm declaration. “Get out of here immediately.” Despite being severely scolded, Erica refused to leave, forcing Ansel to resort to more drastic measures to deal with her stubbornness.

“Get out of my company!” Ansel shouted again. Firmly assert your decision.

Erica looked at Ansel in surprise, while Nika unconsciously bit her lip, suppressing the natural instinct that arose within him. Nika felt sorry for Erica. What happened just now was really not Erica’s fault. However, if Nika spoke up in Erica’s defense, he would definitely incur Ansel’s wrath. After all, Erica was just a stranger. Therefore, after a moment of consideration, Nika decided not to intervene, despite her extremely troubled conscience.

“Why? What did I do wrong?” Erica asked in bewilderment. There was a hint of confusion in her gaze, mixed with a sense of vulnerability. Just moments ago, Erica was simply helping the servers here by delivering coffee to Ansel. She had a kind heart and wanted to assist. How did it end up like this? It appears that fate has a tendency to inflict suffering on Erica.

Without providing a kind explanation, Ansel coldly ordered:

“Where’s the security? There is a troublemaker here. Hurry up and send this person away.”

A nearby security guard promptly approached. Following Ansel’s order, the guard politely asked Erica to leave the company. However, Erica was equally stubborn. She grew angry and exclaimed:

“I didn’t do anything wrong. It was his lack of attention that caused the accident.” Erica pointed directly at Ansel’s face as she spoke. She no longer behaves with respect toward Ansel because Ansel’s excessive behavior infuriated Erica.

“How dare you behave so unethically with the director? Quickly admit your fault and follow me out.” The male security guard, old enough to be Erica’s father, stood by, urging Erica to “hurry up.”

“Why should I submit to an arrogant and unreasonable person like him?” Erica turned to the man, protesting indignantly, “What about the director? The kind of person with talent without ethics is just trash, worthy of being thrown away.”

Erica’s audacious words elicited gasps from everyone in the room, shocking them. It was the first time anyone had openly dared to insult Ansel.

“You should choose your words more carefully,” the well-meaning security guard reminded Erica.

“What did I say wrong? When someone makes a mistake, they should admit it instead of blaming others. Arbitrarily firing an employee just because he likes it. He doesn’t deserve to be a director at all.” Erica replied defiantly.

While everyone was discussing Erica’s attitude and fearing Ansel’s explosive reaction, Erica, on the other hand, fearlessly stared directly into Ansel’s eyes. The two sides have an eye war. Sensing the tense situation, the security guard intervened again, saying:

“Stop causing trouble; go out with me; if the general manager gets angry, he will definitely be in trouble.”

“I’m not afraid. I didn’t do anything wrong,” Erica replied confidently.

Erica said while glaring at Ansel. She remained resolute and unyielding. She wanted to see what else Ansel was capable of. Would he continue to be stubborn and unreasonable? On Ansel’s part, he believed that if Erica was being defiant and seeking challenges, it was up to him to punish her severely.

“Nika, call the police.” Ansel said coldly, eyes fixed on Erica: “I want to sue this girl for harassment and insulting my honor.”

“Are you sure, Ansel?” Nika asked, bewildered. He didn’t expect the situation to escalate to such an extent. “I don’t think that’s necessary, in my opinion.”

“Call the police; hurry up.” Ignore Nika’s words. Ansel loudly ordered.

While Nika was still hesitating to comply, a female employee who secretly admired Ansel promptly called the police to report the incident.

Before following Ansel’s orders, Nika looked at Erica and said, “You’d better leave to avoid unnecessary trouble.”

“Thanks for your concern, but I’m not afraid. There’s nothing to be afraid of,” Erica replied confidently, her demeanor carrying a hint of arrogance.

“Did you hear what she said, Nika? Call the police here quickly.” Ansel urged. In Ansel’s mind, he eagerly predicted a scene that would happen: Erica would beg his forgiveness, and she might even kneel before him when the police arrive.

Quickly, the police patrol near the company arrived. Ansel initially thought Erica would be frightened and leave before the police arrived. However, to his surprise, Erica displayed great courage as she stood firmly in her position. And of course, Erica did not beg Ansel for forgiveness, much less kneel before him as Ansel predicted. Ansel didn’t want to be too ruthless, but it was Erica who had made the choice. Therefore, when the police arrived, instead of changing his decision, Ansel disregarded the situation and let things unfold naturally.

“Please come with us.” One of the police officers requested that Erica comply.

The indescribable look in Erica’s eyes before she turned to follow the police would haunt Ansel for a long time.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Erica was led away by the police under the mocking and scornful gazes of the onlookers. However, strangely enough, instead of bowing her head in shame or fear, Erica walked with her head held high. Ansel easily noticed this. Before being far away from Ansel, Erica turned her head to look at him, resentful.

“I meant to help you, but instead of returning the favor, you were rude to me. It was true that I was wrong in trying to help you. People like you should die.”

Ansel’s fist tightened as he felt the murmurs of the employees agitate him further. This situation proved to be a unique and memorable experience for him, as he had never before been humiliated by a woman in front of a crowd, let alone in the presence of the company staff he managed.
