Chapter 622
Granger said, “The Reese family ain’t broke, you could have any necklace you fancy, why choose a knockoff? You’re making us look bad”
“Right, my bad, shouldn’t have been such a show–off Clair admitted quickly, but she was boiling inside, thinking Granger was a real piece of work.
That necklace was given to her by him. He told her it was called Heavenly Radiance, the last piece by the famous designer Wayland He had outbid others in Paris with 30
million bucks
The dirty ral had fooled her before. Last year, when the Heavenly Radiance necklace was being auctioned, he happened to be in Paris, which was why she bought his story without doing her homework
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a pickle.
Granger turned to Cameron, “You’re now the CEO of the Reese Group, but you still don’t think before you act. Ms. Stewart is young and beautiful, and you ain’t the only rooster in the henhouse. If you fancy her, go for it, why listen to the gossip?”
Granger’s words seemed like he was schooling his son, but anyone with half a brain could tell he was hinting that Cornelia had a lot of suitors.
Comelia kept her poker face, watching their drama.
Even the usually level headed Ryan couldn’t help but speak up, disregarding the long–standing friendship between their families, Mr. Reese, your son’s actions dont seem like he’s fond of Ms. Stewart.”
Granger’s face changed, “Ryan, you haven’t taken over the Petersen family business yet, and you don’t know the ins and outs of the business world. You should spend more time with your dad, let him teach you some life lessons”
“I might not be a whiz at business, but I’m much better at being a decent human being than Cameron, even better than you,” Ryan shot back, “Ms. Stewart is tonight’s guest, what have you all done to her?
First, it was a setup, then Cameron accused her of theft. You must know the nasty things Cameron said.”
Ryan waved a recording device in his hand, “I’ve recorded everything tonight. I’ve officially accepted Ms. Stewart’s commission, we’ll be suing Cameron for defamation.”
Leonardo, who had just finished his business, was still holding a megaphone, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, you all saw that video, right?
“That was caught by the Reese family’s surveillance, we didn’t doctor it. Despite the Reese family’s decline, they’re still one of the most prestigious families in Riverton. Why would you do this to a young girl, what’s your game?”
Clair stepped forward, “Because I saw her wearing the same necklace as mine, I wanted to humiliate her, so I had my daughter put my fake necklace in her bag.”
Leonardo said, “Just because she wore a necklace identical to yours, you wanted to embarrass her. The Reese family really acts like sewer rats.”
Ryan and Leonardo’s accusations left the Reese family speechless
But Cornelia knew that what the Reese family truly feared wasn’t Ryan or the Petersen family, but the man behind them – Marcus, the Hartley Group
Just when it seemed the drama was over, Ryan suddenly announced, “Cornelia’s necklace is the real Heavenly Radiance!”
The Reese family was shameless and their methods were underhanded, and they had done countless ugly things behind the scenes, which everyone present must know
But as long as the Reese family was still standing, as long as they were still among the most prestigious families in Riverton, no one would dare to point fingers at them.
So when people from the Petersen and Wilson families condemned the Reese family for their dirty deeds, the spectators weren’t surprised.
