Chapter 84 Call the Police
:
“What do you mean mac and cheese cup? Your fiancé would be so sad if he knew.”
Dawn felt silent.
Janice took Dawn’s arm, and her few words were enough to convince her to go.

The barbecue ce wasn’t too close or too far, so they walked leisurely. Maybe it was just Dawn’s imagination, but it felt like Janice kept steering the conversation back to Ethan.
Like-
“So, what does your fiancé do? Is it rted to our field?
“He went all the way to Trifton just to pick you up. He must really love you. Have you two set a wedding date yet?
“I’m getting more and more curious about your fiancé. You’re gorgeous, so I bet he’s handsome, right?”
And many other questions.
Dawn was getting a little worn out from answering, and she took a deep breath.
“Janice, are you that interested in
my
fiancé?”
“Uh…” Janice realized she’d been asking too much and gave an awkwardugh. “I’m just making conversation, that’s all. If you don’t feel like talking, then forget it. Come on, we’re almost there.”
They took the elevator up, and the strong smell of barbecue hit them right away. The ce was clearly doing great business–there were even reservation tags lined up at the entrance.
A server led them to their table by the window, with a wide view of the northern part of the city.
Janice nced outside. “Not bad, right?”
“Yeah, it’s beautiful.”
But Dawn’s mind was still on her unfinished sketches. Distracted, she said, “Janice, let’s eat quickly and head back, okay?”

“You think you can y me for a fool, you bitch? You have no idea how much money I’ve spent on you these past few days. Now you say we’re not a good match? Why didn’t you say so earlier?
“I’m telling you. Either pay back everything I’ve spent on you today, or this isn’t over!”
Most of the people in the restaurant turned to look, and Dawn looked over as well.
<i>Wait</i>…
<i>Cindy</i><i>? </i>
The girl appearedpletely unbothered at all. She kept eating like nothing happened. Her over the top makeup made her look more like a rebellious girl.
Janice noticed Dawn’s expression and asked, “Do you know her?” <fn2b07> ??? ????? ???????s ??? ?????s??? ?? Find~Novel</fn2b07>
Dawn pressed her lips together. “She’s my cousin.”
As the man’s insults got worse and worse, even dragging Cindy’s family into it, Dawn couldn’t take it anymore. She stood up and walked over.
“Sir, don’t you have any family? Going after someone’s rtives–what kind of move is that?”
The sudden interruption made the man stop, but everyone else in the restaurant got excited
to watch.
Cindy looked at her for a second, something shing in her eyes, then looked away.
She still didn’t say anything, just ate more slowly.
“Who the hell are you?” The man sneered at Dawn, scanning her up and down. “I’m yelling at her, so why are you so worked up? Am I yelling at you?”
Dawn said coldly, “I’m her cousin.”
“Oh.”
The man suddenly perked up and turned to face her. “Cousin? Well, great. Perfect timing.”

“Your cousin tricked me–both my heart and my money. She owes me an exnation! Hurry up! Pay me back!”
Dawn asked calmly, “How much?”
“Fifty thousand.”
The man stared at her, sizing her up, as if doubting whether she coulde up with the cash. “Plus 20,000 for emotional damages–70,000 in total! If you don’t pay, I’ll kill her!”
Before Dawn could say anything, Cindy scoffed, holding her fork. “You’ve got some nerve asking that much, huh? What a joke.”
She said calmly it like it didn’t even concern her.
“Who the hell are you talking about?”
“You, brat.”
Everyone fell silent.
The man couldn’t believe Cindy actually dared to insult him. He froze for two seconds, then rolled up his sleeves, but his leather jacket slid back down. “Say that again!”
Just as he looked ready to make a move, Dawn’s temple twitched. She stepped in front of Cindy and said in a deep voice, “Enough!
“Sir, you’re saying my cousin scammed you out of 50,000 dors. You need to show some proof. And the <i>20,000 </i>for ‘emotional damages,‘ you need a reason for that, too. If you can’t, this amount could be considered ckmail.”
The man scoffed, his eyes moving back to Dawn.
“I said it, so it’s true. What are you gonna do about it?”
This little girl actually <i>thinks </i><i>yelling </i>at <i>me will </i><i>scare </i><i>me</i><i>? </i>
Dawn stayed calm. “I can call the police.”
The man froze.
Dawn looked at him and took out her phone. “If my cousin did cheat you, we’ll pay you back, even if it’s 500,000, not just 50,000. But since we can’t tell who’s telling the truth right now, we should just call the police.”
