Sham Marriage Quit Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 383

Chapter 383 Karma Is A B*Tch

Victoria struggled violently the entire time.

Unfortunately, her strength was no match for the security guards. They carried her out of the exhibition hall as easily as if they were hauling away luggage.

Her furious shouting gradually faded into the distance.

Soon, the exhibition hall returned to its lively atmosphere.

Only now, hardly anyone was discussing the antiques anymore.

Instead, everyone was gossiping about the Hawthorne family scandal.

“I heard Charles completely kicked Sebastian out of Hawthorne Group. He only left him with Hawthorne Pharmaceuticals.

“At this rate, once Charles passes away, Sebastian’s side of the family probably won’t inherit a single cent.

“Well, they brought it on themselves.

“People reap what they sow. After everything they did to Elena back then, this is karma finally catching up to them.”

“That’s true.”

“Honestly, Elena really does have incredible luck. She lost a Sebastian Hawthorne but ended up marrying Alexander Kingsley instead…”

Every single comment stabbed directly into Camille’s chest.

Her fingers tightened around the fabric of her dress while her mind buzzed blankly.

“You fought Elena so desperately back then,” Riona said lazily while glancing at her, “and now you even compare to a single finger of hers.”

“At least she successfully became the daughter–in–law of the Kingsley family.”

“Meanwhile, look at the husband you married… and that nightmare mother–in–law of yours.”

Camille bit down hard on her lip.

The thing she hated hearing most in her life was that she wasn’t as good as Elena.

And when those words came from Riona, she didn’t even have the courage to argue back.

“I’m sorry, Aunt Riona.

“I shouldn’t have brought my mother–in–law here tonight.”

Camille lowered her head and apologized quietly.

She had already offended Victoria.

There was no way she could afford to offend the Sterling family too.

“You need to understand your position clearly Riona said coldly.

“The Sterling family’s business will never be handed over to

outsiders.

“So stop fantasizing about things that were never meant to belong to you.

“If you want to remain in this family, then learn one thing first–know your boundaries.”

Every word hit Camille like a slap across the face.

Riona was making it painfully obvious that even if Camille returned to the Sterling family by blood, they still didn’t consider her one of them.

At that moment, Camille regretted everything more than ever before.

If she had known this was how the Sterlings would treat her, she never would have completely fallen out with Richard Hart.

Now Hart Group had fallen into Elena’s hands.

Victoria hated her too.

And after all this-

The only thing she had gained was the empty title of “Sterling heiress.”

“Thank you.

“We’ll take this one.”

Suddenly, a familiar voice drifted over from behind the folding screen nearby.

Camille froze instantly.

Her pupils contracted sharply as she whipped around toward the screen.

She would never forget that voice.

The people sitting behind the partition were actually Elena and Alexander.

Which meant-

Everything Riona had just said.

Every insult.

Every humiliation.

Elena had heard all of it.

Camille felt like she was going insane.

Before anyone could react, she suddenly stood up and yanked the folding screen aside.

Fortunately, Elena had already expected Camille to lose control.

Finished

The moment the screen was pulled open, Elena immediately covered her chest dramatically and looked up at Camille with wide innocent eyes.

“Oh wow,” she said softly. “What a coincidence.”

Camille nearly coughed up blood from anger after seeing that fake innocent expression.

At that moment, she genuinely wanted to rush forward and claw Elena’s face apart.

But Alexander sat beside Elena with one arm possessively wrapped around her waist, shielding her completely like an impenetrable wall.

Riona and Zoe both turned pale after realizing who had been sitting next door.

They immediately put down their tea cups and stood up.

Although Riona clearly disliked Elena, this was still Northbridge.

Out of respect for Alexander, she still forced herself to greet him politely.

“Mr. Kingsley.

“What a coincidence.”

As she spoke, her gaze subtly lingered on Alexander’s face as though searching for something.

But whatever she hoped to find wasn’t there.

A trace of disappointment flashed through her eyes.

Meanwhile, Alexander didn’t even bother acknowledging her existence.

He simply lowered his head and asked Elena gently,

“Finished choosing?”

“Yep. Let’s take this one.

“Grandpa will definitely love it.”

Alexander nodded calmly before handing his card to the nearby employee.

“We’ll take this item. Thank you.”

His tone toward the employee was polite and courteous.

Riona and Camille’s expressions instantly became even uglier.

Riona was furious because Alexander could treat an ordinary employee warmly while completely ignoring

her.

It was basically a direct slap to her pride.

As for Camille-

Her emotions were even more complicated.

Back then, she thought she had beaten Elena by successfully taking Sebastian away from her.

But now?

The same woman Camille had desperately tried to flatter tonight was acting polite and cautious in front of Elena and Alexander.

Meanwhile, Elena herself couldn’t care less what the others were thinking.

After selecting Walter’s gift, she happily left the exhibition hall together with Alexander.

“So?” Alexander asked amusedly once they got outside. “Did you enjoy tonight’s gossip?”

Ever since leaving the venue, Elena had been humming happily to herself.

Her mood was obviously excellent.

“Absolutely.”

Her eyes sparkled brightly.

“I must be a terrible person,” she muttered. “Watching them embarrass themselves made me ridiculously happy.”

Alexander couldn’t help smiling when he saw her smug little expression.

Then he pulled her straight into his arms.
