The Ceo’s Convict Wife by Jennifer Mike novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419 

At most, there were only a few residential building plots. Maybe they could obtain the project and design a batch of residential houses. 

“Lillian, don’t get distracted when you get in later. The people we will be meeting today are all senior executives of those real estate companies,” the director reminded. 

“I got it,” Lillian replied as she gathered her focus. 

As they walked into the hall, Lillian abruptly stopped in her tracks and saw a familiar silhouette. It was Yvette! 

As the second daughter of the Hamilton family, she had also caused much suffering to Rosalie in prison, and Lillian loathed her. 

Nonetheless, Yvette had an influential family background. Even if she was banned from the entertainment industry, she could still return to the Hamilton family and become a wealthy young lady, holding an important position in the Hamilton Group. 

At that moment, Yvette wore a high-end custom suit. Her long, curly hair rested on her shoulder, and she looked gorgeous with delicate makeup. 

Yvette was surrounded by a group of people who seemed to be chatting with her. 

The director standing beside Lillian also hung a smile on his face as he approached Yvette and greeted her warmly. 

慈 

Only then did Lillian know that Yvette came to the auction as a representative of a real estate company owned by the Hamilton family. 

Naturally, someone of her status made her a target of many people’s flattery. If Hamilton Group won the auction and obtained the project, it would be a significant, year-long deal for any design institute. 

Lillian listened as the director, who usually kept a stern look, now smiling and flattered Yvette continuously. From the conversation, Lillian learned that Hamilton Group sounded confident in winning the most popular plot of the auction this time. 

“I’ve also heard of you. It’s not impossible for us to cooperate in the future, but…” Yvette turned her eyes to Lillian and said, “Since you want to deal with me today, you should find out my likes and dislikes. Hence, Mr. Todd, what do you mean by bringing an employee I can’t stand?” 

The director, Seamus Todd, was stunned. “Do you mean… Lillian?” 

“Is that so? I don’t know her name, but I can’t really stand the sight of her.” Glancing at Lillian contemptuously, Yvette may not know her name, but she knew this woman was Rosalie’s friend. 

‘When Rosalie was in jail, this woman helped her out a lot. 

If it weren’t for Rosalie, how could I be forced to retire from the entertainment industry?’ Yvette thought, feeling hatred in 

her heart. 

However, she was afraid to deal with Rosalie, so Yvette could only vent her anger on the woman before her. 

“Mr. Todd, people like her are as annoying as cockroaches in the sewer. With such an employee in your institution, it’s quite hard to think you can be in charge of such a major project,” Yvette said. 

Suddenly, everyone’s eyes fell on Lillian. 

Lillian only felt embarrassed. 

The others on the side, trying to please Yvette, said, “How can you let someone like her in?” 

Someone even called the security guard to have Lillian escorted out. 

Seamus wanted to defend Lillian, but too many people wanted to gain Yvette’s favor, so it was futile. 

Someone even pointed at Lillian and barked, “Get out. This isn’t a place you should be in.” 

Lillian raised her head. No matter how humiliated she was then, she refused to give in. “Why should I get out? This isn’t the Hamilton family’s territory.” 

“What? How dare you fight back! So what if we want you to get out? Who do you think you are?” Naturally, there were people on Yvette’s side talking for her. 

“You want me out? Which law says I can’t step foot in here? Am I supposed to get out? I’ll have you know I can sue you for acting like this,” Lillian argued stubbornly. 

“Sue me? Okay, let’s see how you’re going to sue me!” With that, the other person ordered their two subordinates, “Kick this person out, so it doesn’t ruin Ms. Hamilton’s mood!” 

The two robust subordinates stepped forward and grabbed each side of Lillian’s arm, about to drag her out. 

Seamus and her other colleagues dared not to stand up for Lillian at this moment. 

Yvette smiled lightly and looked at Lillian mockingly. “It seems that you still have to get out of here. Someone may protect Rosalie, but it doesn’t mean you also have someone to protect you. If you show your face to me in the future, I’ll kick you out again.” 

Lillian’s face turned red with anger. 

However, she had no idea how to resist them. The more she struggled, the more she would be disgraced. 

‘Why? Why does Yvette act like this? Is it because of her good family background that she thinks she can humiliate and torment people as she likes? 

This is just like the past when Yvette pulled out Rosalie’s nails one by one. 

And me? Can I only accept the humiliation Yvette is giving me? Just because she’s the daughter of the Hamilton family?’ Lillian thought. 

A familiar voice suddenly sounded when Lillian was about to give up struggling. 

“Is that so? I didn’t know someone could decide whether my girlfriend should get out.”
