The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1259

"Doesn't SUNNY have a strict policy that this specific design can only be purchased, not rented?"

Claire hadn't expected the girl to lie straight to her face, so she decided to rip off the band-aid immediately.

Her friend Zara had suffered countless unspoken indignities at the hands of this step-sister growing up.

Claire figured she'd do her good deed for the day and get some revenge on Zara's behalf.

"How did you know that?" Zoe blurted out.

A second later, she instantly regretted it.

She shouldn't have lost her composure so easily.

Claire was baiting her!

Preston stared at Zoe. Watching her spit out lie after pathetic lie made him feel like he was looking at a total stranger.

Zoe noticed Preston's chilling gaze and scrambled to explain.

"I personally know the executive at the SUNNY studio. She pulled some strings to let me rent it."

"You know the executive at SUNNY?" Claire raised an eyebrow. "The one running the boutique here in Cabinda?"

Assuming there was no way Claire would coincidentally know the same person, Zoe's confidence surged back.

"Yes."

Claire looked at her with a cryptic smile. "Is that so? Then it sounds like that executive needs to be fired."

"Regardless of the excuse, SUNNY's policies are strictly non-negotiable."

The smug smile froze on Zoe's face. "Aren't you overstepping a bit?"

Was she?

Claire pulled out her phone and dialed Jenny's number.

She asked Jenny to contact the local branch manager in Cabinda.

She wanted to know definitively if this dress had been rented out.

At first, Zoe thought Claire was just putting on a dramatic act.

But when she realized Claire was actually speaking directly to Jenny, the global director of SUNNY, she was absolutely stunned.

The real kicker was that Jenny quickly exposed the lie, confirming that Zoe had personally purchased the dress at the boutique.

The expression on Zoe's face was far beyond a simple desire to cry.
