Faye's smile deepened. "Is this the lady who bid for the second set? Do you think the issue with our third set isn't accurately pointed out, or do you believe the problem lies with the second set?"

As Faye's words fell, the surrounding discussions immediately shifted.

Those who had expressed doubt and initially sided with Astrid now looked at Astrid in confusion, frowning. They found Faye's explanation to be convincing.

After all, no one would spend over a billion for a set of clothes at an auction. Although the clothing designed by Light Moon Designs' chief designer was indeed excellent, it would be unreasonable to be so insistent unless they were sure the outfit was flawed.

On top of that, Astrid's hysterical tone was suspicious as well.

"Don't try to paint me as the bad guy. I'm just discussing the matter at hand," Astrid replied calmly with a sharp tone.

Faye chuckled. "I remember the one who won the bid for the third set is Mr. Liberton, a well-known figure in the domesti

    Astrid didn't expect the appraiser she brought in from Allure Designs to claim that the second set had no issues. When she contacted them to come, she had specifically instructed them to insist that the second set had problems, and Astrid would take responsibility for all consequences should anything go wrong. However, as the appraiser confidently declared that all items on stage were authentic, Astrid was close to a mental breakdown."No, this can't be! Did Faye manage to buy off my staff, too?" she thought. The last hope rested on the person brought in by Nick. Nick had put everything on the line and called a professor who taught gemology at Jeorgia University. This professor had once received favors from Nick's father and worked for the Lynch family for years. Though Benny was currently under investigation, the righteous professor didn't abandon the Lynch family and was still trying to lighten the potential legal consequences for the family. When the professor, Mr. Hack

    Faye initially intended to brush it off with a laugh, but Cedric's perceptiveness made her speechless.After a moment of thought, Faye forced a smile. "Cedric, expanding your business to Pembrook too? Seems like you're hiding some secrets."With his alluring smile, Cedric leaned back in his chair, his eyes sparkling. "Faye, your words seem to be directed at yourself."Faye was speechless."Let me guess, you're in Pembrook because of Light Moon Designs, or are you there to treat someone? Or perhaps, are there other business matters I'm unaware of?" Faye smirked, momentarily unsure how to respond."Shouldn't you confess before questioning me, Mr. Shaw?" Cedric held Faye's hand, playing with it. "Are you checking up on me, Faye?"Faye turned her head. With bright eyes, she smiled innocently. "Can't I?"This woman was always like this. After teasing him, she would look at him with innocent eyes, say things that drove him crazy, and then casually leave.Just thinking about it ma

    Arriving at the security team's office, Faye had changed into new clothes, applied makeup, and donned a wig. With sunglasses as the finishing touch, she exuded confidence and a cool air. A stark contrast to her previous gentle appearance.Had Charles not seen Faye in her adept disguise before, he might not have recognized her.She wore a black shirt, black pants, and high boots. Her eyes seemed to see through everything, instilling caution in others. Despite her intimidating aura, the off-duty security team members rushed towards her excitedly.Several ladies hugged her and exclaimed, "Boss, you're back!""We missed you so much, Boss!""In the past six months without you, we didn't even know how we survived!""Boss, you won't leave again, right?""Without you, our security team would have become useless decorations!"Surrounded by her colleagues, Faye patted their shoulders and chuckled. "All of you've worked hard."A young man with a dark expression stood by the crowd, wa

    It was already quiet when Faye reached the location James mentioned. No suspicious individuals gathered, and nothing seemed out of place. Along the way, Faye attempted to contact James but failed. His phone was unreachable. She couldn't find him even when she tried their security team's unique communication method. Faye frowned. "Could something have happened?" With a grim expression, she circled the area on the motorcycle and spotted a suspicious figure guarding an abandoned warehouse nearby. Sensing trouble, she quietly approached, skillfully incapacitated the guards at the entrance, and infiltrated the warehouse.Moving forward, she heard voices inside, as if people were arguing. Faye silently approached, trying to listen to their conversation clearly.Suddenly, the surroundings brightened, and beams of light directly illuminated her.A large group of people emerged from all directions, surrounding Faye in a tight circle.They held knives and clubs, totaling more than

    The man and Faye were evenly matched. Their battle was fierce, and both sides did not let up.In the crowd, someone impatiently held a silver needle, waiting for the right moment to viciously shoot it towards Faye.As the assailant moved, Faye's expression darkened, her gaze fixed on that direction.This distraction left her vulnerable, and Seth landed a punch on her shoulder with a crisp, loud "crack".The impact of the fist against the bone was crisp and loud. Wincing in pain, Faye quickly toppled to the ground. In her descent, she snapped her wrist and sent a small makeup mirror flying straight at the incoming silver needle.With a clattering sound, the makeup mirror intercepted the silver needle, redirecting it back toward the assailant.The man, caught off guard by Faye's countermove, stood frozen as the poisoned silver needle pierced his heart. He groaned lowly, clutching his chest in agony before collapsing to the ground.After deflecting the silver needle, the makeup

    Faye found herself pinned down on a wide, comfortable bed, gazing at the handsome face so close to her. Before she could say anything, Cedric lowered his head and kissed her neck.At the same time, his hand pressed down on her shoulder.Her shoulder hadn't been treated and was already throbbing. With Cedric's touch, Faye felt like she was about to die from the pain.She gasped in pain and instinctively pushed Cedric away.Meeting Cedric's eyes, filled with suspicion and displeasure, Faye realized she had overreacted. She cleared her throat nervously and adjusted her collar. She took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck, planting a kiss near his lips."Mr. Shaw, you said so yourself. It's inappropriate to do this during the day ..." She leaned against his chest, her eyes bright, "How about we finish our business first, and I'll serve you tonight?"She could just lie there without doing a thing, and that was enough to drive him crazy.

    Just as Faye had thought, Cedric had indeed gone to settle scores with Seth.Seth's full name was Seth Garcia. He was from the Garcia family in Jorn City. Due to some trouble he got into while he was young, he was kicked out of his family. Later, relying on his intelligence, he established a reputation for himself and followed a powerful figure to Laguna Island, eventually becoming the "master" of Laguna Island.Naturally, Seth was just a puppet, but he had sacrificed a lot to even qualify as a puppet. He fought his way out of hell and honed his skills for self-preservation.Hence, when he struck, every move was lethal, ruthless, and decisive, aiming to kill. From Cedric's perspective, Seth should have never harmed his woman.Anyone who hurt Faye would not be spared.As his thoughts raced, Cedric arrived at the location his men had sent him.Indeed, after leaving the warehouse rooftop at the dock, Cedric had his men follow Seth while he followed Faye.However, Faye was too s

    Faye had made arrangements for Jeorgia, while Cedric started an investigation into what the Anderson and Garcia families were doing. Faye knew that this was a trap and that nothing happened by coincidence. However, she didn't know what the culprit's motive was. She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich. Faye, don't even dream of getting your murderer of a mother out! I won't let you. You better come back to Jeorgia, or this won't ever be over."With that, Tracy hung up.

    Clark's words only enraged Flora. Eleanor abused Faye when she was a child, which led to Faye getting sick repeatedly. She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor. It wasn't until the doctor arrived that Flora found out Clark didn't even

    Lizzie and Clint were momentarily stunned, confused by Tracy's words. "I just received a call from Uncle. He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around. Lizzie remained patie

    "You look alright. Who would have thought you are the kind of man who would cheat on your wife?" Eleanor didn't mince her words and immediately kept her distance. Mandy smiled.

"I'm sorry, but they are not my relatives. Please handle it according to the law." After hanging up, she looked at Cedric, who was waiting for breakfast. She hugged him from behind and said with a smile, "Guess what interesting scene I witnessed last night?"Cedric turned his head to study the triumphant look on her face. He smiled.
