Her cousin told her that Eden was just a country bumpkin who had no background.
Her cousin had been close to her since she was a child, and she would never let her suffer losses.
At this time, more and more rich ladies gathered around, and some of them even pointed at Eden and scolded her.
"This lady is too young, so she doesn't know the ways of the world, and she is ungrateful. Miss Simpson doesn't go too far. She even dares to provoke the Simpson family. What a stupid woman."
"Yeah, she makes a scene at Mr. Simpson's banquet, and she really doesn't respect Mr. Simpson, does she?"
"Young people are arrogant. Nowadays, young people don't know how to restrain themselves. No one dares to go against Mr. Simpson except for the other three richest families in A Country. Even Victor has to be polite to him."
"It seems that you're right. Although Victor is the richest in this city, he can't be compared with the richest man in A Country, can he?"
"Now the Simpson family has come back to River City. There's going to be a good show in the business world in River City."
"Who knows? The Simpson family and the Alwynn family are both powerful. Even if they go against each other, we may not be able to gain any benefits."
Everyone was talking about it.
However, some people knew that it was not so easy to defeat Victor.
"Humph!" Hearing those people whispering, Baylee snorted with disdain.
Barrett came back just to deal with the Alwynn family.
The Alwynn family was respectable and noble. If their family could take over Alwynn Group, they would dominate the whole Country, not to mention River City.
Thinking of this, Baylee was no longer afraid of Eden.
She looked at Eden arrogantly, "I think you'd better not put yourself through misery. Kneel down and apologize to me. Then I'll let you go."
"Baylee, don't forget to let her pay you three million dollars. Your dress is a limited edition and it's expensive." Seeing that Baylee was not scared, Lucy became overweening again.
She needed money to repay her online loan, and Eden must give them the money. Otherwise, she would have done everything in vain.
Eden looked at her, "You think too highly of yourselves, don't you? You forgot what I said just now. I said that each of you was only worth a million dollars, but you have to pay me a hundred million dollars. Tonight, you can leave here if you pay me the money, or all of you will be sent to the underground casino." Her sharp voice was full of determination and aloofness.
Those women were annoyed by her.
"You... Good! Since you have to make a big thing out of it, I won't let you off." Baylee took out her phone from her bag which was decorated with diamonds and dialed a number.
"Hello? We are trapped by that woman. She won't let us go unless each of us pay her one hundred million dollars, or she will send us to the underground casino."
"I'll be right there." Baylee's cousin said indifferently and then hung up.
Baylee sneered, "Just you wait."
Eden nodded, "I have to change my clothes now."
She looked at Aro who was hiding in the dark.
"Don't let them go until their family or friends bring the money here. Now send them to the underground casino."
"How dare you!" Baylee didn't expect Eden to be so fearless.
However, they were taken away by the bodyguards before they could struggle.
"Let go of me! You b*stard! Hurry up and let go of me! Do you know who I am? How dare you touch me? I will definitely cut off your hands and let you pay the price!"
The mad voices of Baylee and the other women could no longer be heard after they entered the elevator.
Eden did not mind how others looked at her. She looked at Thalia and said, "I'll change my clothes first."
"Okay, Mrs. Alwynn." Thalia took Eden to change her clothes.
Soon, someone told Barrett about the news.
