Chapter 1960
A man remarked condescendingly, "Banish us out of Westchester? You sure know how to run your mouth."
"What a joke! How dare a common actress like you make threats like this?"
"Ha! That's the funniest thing I've heard all year!"
Everyone laughed and mocked them, especially Heather. She was not even hiding it anymore as she laughed heartily and savored every moment.
Isabel tried to charge at her again.
Caprice hurriedly stopped her and held her back. "Stop it. Don't be impulsive."
Isabel drew a deep breath. "I'll call my Dad right now."
She had enough!
Caprice nodded. They would have to let Uncle Carter settle this for them.
Upon hearing their exchange, the crowd began hurling snide remarks at them again.
"Call whoever you want, call God himself. He won't save you. You stole
Mrs. Duwait's pink diamond!"
Sophia smiled devilishly. "Hurry up and notify Mrs. Duwait, then the police. We're done wasting time with her. I don't want to hear her miserable excuses anymore."
As soon as she said this, one of the ushers posted at the entrance of the venue ran to the scene. He was very nervous and turned to all of his colleagues who were present at the scene. "Somebody, send a message to Mr. and Mrs. Duwait! Mr. and Mrs. Carter from Carter Corporation are here.
They came with Mr. and Mrs. Stockton from Glanchester!"
As soon as he made the announcement, the other staff members sprang to the task. "Okay, got it!"
With that, they ran to their respective posts.
The gathered crowd seemed to have had their fill of fun as well, so they began to disperse and returned to the venue.
The Carters were a prestigious family. Mr. Carter was one of the oligarchs in Westchester while his wife, Mrs. Carter, was a world-famous painter.
