The Second Life of a Discarded Heiress novel Chapter 74

"The whole Iverson family, except for Citrine, is just a bunch of idiots. The more I think about it, the angrier I get."

"How does someone that stupid even run a company? With a heart that black, there's no way they're making anything decent. From now on, I'm never buying anything from any Iverson company again."

Public outrage against the Iverson family swept the nation. That day, The Iverson Group's stock price took a nosedive, and Sawyer threw a fit in his office.

Meanwhile, Citrine went about her day at school as if nothing had happened.

Ever since the truth came out about her not pushing Jeanette down the stairs, Citrine's reputation on campus had done a complete 180.

Her striking looks only drew more attention—suddenly, plenty of students wanted to befriend her.

After classes ended, two girls she'd recently met invited Citrine and Amelia out for the afternoon.

The four of them started with a movie at the mall and then headed to an upscale karaoke lounge.

As they reached the door, Amelia tugged nervously at Citrine's sleeve, her face a little pale. "Citrine, this is Siren's Whisper. Maybe we should go somewhere else?"

Siren's Whisper was the most exclusive karaoke bar in Havencrest—naturally, the prices matched.

Leonie and Felicity, both from comfortable but modest families, had never set foot in a place this fancy before. Their eyes shone with anticipation, but reality quickly set in. They shook their heads, embarrassed. "Yeah, Citrine, this is a bit much for us. Maybe we could try somewhere else?"

Just then, a shrill voice cut through the conversation.

"Honestly, what a bunch of nobodies. Clearly never seen how the other half lives."
