The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 788

Yolande looked at Claire with deep gratitude.

It was clear the two girls weren't going to let this incident drive a wedge between them.

Tiffany was the only one seething with rage.

Her daughter's disobedience had thoroughly humiliated her.

Her daughter had so much jewelry—what was wrong with regifting one piece to Claire?

Did it only count as a sincere gesture if she spent extra money on a brand-new one?

“Fine, my mistake. If Claire doesn't like it, then forget it.”

“And you too, Yolande. Ophelia and the others give you so many gifts. I just picked one out to give to Claire. Why are you throwing such a fit?”

Everyone present fell into a stunned silence at those words.

Claire had never met a woman this clueless.

Was she seriously taking her anger out on her own biological daughter?

“Mom!” Yolande's face turned completely pale. She hadn't expected her mother to say something so awful.

If she had known, she never would have followed her to Apex.

Yolande regretted it bitterly.

Seeing the young girl blushing with absolute mortification, Padgett was left speechless.

“Enough, Tiffany. What exactly are you doing in Apex? Go mind your own business!”

He was entirely sick of looking at this foolish woman.

When Padgett spoke up, Tiffany felt a flicker of genuine fear.

No one dared challenge his authority.

Tiffany was also terrified of dragging her husband down with her.

As her father-in-law always said, when Padgett got furious, he didn't care about blood ties.

He had kicked his own brother out of the company, let alone a nephew.

Tiffany only hated that Owen Churchill hadn't been born to Padgett's wife.

“Padgett, we really just came to see Claire. What else could we possibly be up to?”

Tiffany gave a forced, placating laugh.
