Yvonne's words clarified the situation for the crowd of onlookers, and having understood what was going on, they started to whisper among themselves."They said they were her family, but, in reality, they can't wait to ruin Nicole. They called her a beast, too. I think they're the ones who should be called beasts.""I agree. They knew Nicole was successful, so they thought they could gain a fortune from her.""Nicole is really unfortunate to have a family like them."Multiple accusations targeted the Princeton family.The Princeton family hadn't expected this turn of events. Not only was Yvonne unfazed by them, but she was also being supported by a terrifying man who'd dared to be so ruthless despite so many people watching them. He was definitely not someone they could afford to take things lightly with.The Princeton family had ugly looks on their faces as they faltered, unsure of their next step. Only Jessica managed to keep an aggressive demeanor and retorted, "Shut up! What
That night, the voice recording of the Princeton family making a fuss at the jewelry exhibition was uploaded on the internet. The recording had been edited so that Stephen's voice was left out, and all that could be heard was the Princeton family being totally unreasonable and Yvonne's calm rebuttal. Right after the incident, Nicole released a long article on her personal social media account, sharing the details of her unfortunate upbringing with her family. She even included a list detailing the transactions she'd sent to the Princeton family. Nicole's work as the Chief Designer of Miller Jewels in the past few years had impressed numerous fans. Therefore, when she exposed her unfortunate experiences, it deeply angered many people, who were displeased on her behalf. The commotion was in full swing and lasted throughout the night.The Princeton family trended on the internet, just as they'd hoped they would, but not in a good way. Their notorious reputation was now bound to br
Thomas' reaction elicited a wave of dissatisfaction from Robinson Group's executives. "You want another chance? In your dreams!""Do you think we're a charity organization?" "You're absolutely shameless!"Xavier raised his hand to signal them to be quiet as they started spewing more insults. He looked at Thomas with a resigned look. "Mr. Jones, as you can see, I can't help you any longer.""No, please don't …" Thomas kept shaking his head like someone who'd lost all sense of purpose. "Jones Jewels is my life's work. I can't lose the company like this!"The executives were relieved by Xavier's reaction and swiftly came up with suggestions on what to do with Jones Jewels. The best solution was to sell it, recoup the Robinson Group's investment, and minimize the losses.. Thomas came to his senses when he heard that they were planning to sell Jones Jewels. He sprung to his feet and slammed his hands onto the table. The loud bang startled everyone in the meeting room. He shouted
Yvonne turned to look at Jessica, who was looking back at her with greed-filled eyes. Yvonne finally witnessed firsthand what people meant when they said that married couples resembled each other. "I won't go back on my word. Wait downstairs. I'll fetch my credit card and meet you there," Yvonne said dismissively. "Sure thing!" said Jessica. She quickly left the room and headed downstairs. Then Yvonne ordered Curtis and Lloyd to bring the Princeton family, who were being held captive, to the living room. She grabbed her credit card and called for Nicole, who was playing with Elvin, to join her. "I'll show you something fun," said Yvonne. Seeing the mischievous smile on Yvonne's face, Nicole couldn't stop her lips from forming a smile too. She knew that Yvonne was trying to avenge her. Jessica immediately noticed the credit card in Yvonne's hands as she entered the living room. She was so focused that she didn't even notice Nicole trailing behind Yvonne."Ms. Miller, you
After the fight had somewhat subsided, Yvonne gave a signal to Curtis and Lloyd. They understood her immediately and moved forward to stop the fight and move the Princetons away from each other. It was when she saw how terrible Jessica looked that Yvonne realized Roger had gone all out during the fight. Roger didn't come out of the fight unscathed, either; his face looked like it had been scratched by a cat. All in all, the Princetons looked like a bunch of clowns. Despite being in this ridiculous situation, the Princetons didn't forget the money that Yvonne had promised them. Roger wiped off the blood on his face, extended out his hands toward Yvonne, and said, "The money! Give me the money!" "Nicole and I have worked through the sum of money I should pay you all. After subtracting the money she gave you back then, there's still 400 thousand dollars left. That will be the price you have to pay for making a mess at our jewelry exhibition," Yvonne said. She placed the credit car
Jasmine admitted that her award-winning piece had been plagiarized from Tara Miller's work and that she'd returned the design draft, which was now being exhibited at Miller Jewels, to Yvonne. This was a secret she'd kept for many years. Jasmine admitted her mistake to the public and apologized to Yvonne and Tara during the jewelry exhibition. She also promised to return the certificate and prize money she'd won from the competition so that Tara could rightfully claim the prestige she'd worked for. The apology letter was rather long and expressed Jasmine's sincerity in admitting her mistake. Regardless of her actions, Jasmine had done Tara wrong, and the damage she'd caused couldn't be mended by apologizing. Many netizens were well aware of this fact and commented on it."You gained so much by taking advantage of the prize back then. You're painting the incident in a good way, but could you spit out everything you'd taken from Tara?""Tara Miller had it hard. She's still a nob
Yvonne's attitude was cold. "Are you here to apologize on your mother's behalf?""Yes, she isn't in the right state of mind to see you." Xavier nodded. He was just about to say what he'd prepared, but Yvonne didn't give him the opportunity to do so. Without waiting, she coldly said, "Jasmine wronged my mother, so she should apologize to my mother."Xavier was speechless; his heart sank. How could Yvonne be so tactless? Tara Miller had already passed away. Was Yvonne asking Jasmine to die and look for her? "Ms. Miller, I know you're angry, but you won't be doing yourself any favors by making things too difficult." When Xavier met Yvonne's gaze, his eyes were no longer as calm as before. "I've heard about the incident too. Back then, Tara chose to forgive my mother. If not, this matter wouldn't have stayed hidden for so long.""So, if a thief has been forgiven, does that mean that they're no longer a thief?" Yvonne snickered. "My mother might have forgiven Jasmine, but that's beca
Thomas wanted to jump off a building. Rather than live life without purpose and be the butt of everyone's jokes, he should just die.Just when he was engrossed in this thought. A Porsche Cayenne suddenly stopped behind him. Two men in black got out of the car, grabbed him, and threw him into the car. Then the car sped off.Thomas was frightened half to death, trembling while looking at the man next to him. He only took one glance, and he did not dare to let out a single breath.The man had an air of frostiness about him. His angular face looked like the scythe of a grim reaper.Thomas gulped. "W—who are you?""You don't need to know who I am," the man said disdainfully. "I'm just going to ask you one thing—do you want to live?"Thomas looked at the car before looking at the man once more. He could see that the man wasn't any ordinary person, but he didn't know him either. Why was the man trying to help him? He said doubtfully, "Of course I want to live. Are you really going to he
