Warning: My Mommy is A Savage novel Chapter 686

Chapter 686

Max walked toward Charmine and handed her a glass of wine. "Ms. Jordan is finally here, very brave indeed."

'Very brave indeed.’ These three words might sound as if he was praising her, but it was a backhanded mockery.

The fact that she could show up to this kind of event... If it was not courage, what was it?

The banquet was filled with moguls and renowned individuals in Burlington. How could the Jordans walk with their heads up?

The people staring at Charmine snapped out of their trance.

So, this was Charmine?

While they had seen photos of Chamine when she was a supermodel, they did not know much about her. They only knew that she was a supermodel who had gone home to manage the family business.

The Divine Birds had set the sky-rocketing price of one hundred fifty thousand per square meter, seemingly like the Rolls Royce in this field. However, this screwed up the rules in this industry, making it hard for everyone to survive.

Who would have thought they could finally meet Charmine in person.

She was indeed beautiful, but...

Someone said with a strange and mocking tone,

"It's plain to see she's just an empty tin can; pretty but empty. No wonder the Jordan Group is getting worse." 2

"Even though she had the support of the Bailey Corporation, she still messed up the good hand she had. Tsk, tsk! Obviously, she's making profits with her look."

"Charmine doesn't know business stuff. The Divine Bird had a good location and design, but they shouldn't have marked up the price. Setting up the price at one hundred fifty thousand per square meter, they messed up the market price. I’m glad they're being boycotted!"

"Even the Oriental Pearl didn't cost as much!"

"If this goes on, well, forget about saving the Jordan Group. Perhaps even her diamond mine will be screwed over!"

Every word and phrase was soaked in ridicule and scorn.

Someone sighed. "The Hundred Birds Project is better, the price is better, and the ideas are creative. This banquet stunned the entire city. Charmine should come; she has so much to learn from Max D'Cruz!"

Charmine remained unperturbed, even though she heard all of the criticisms. She remained relaxed and unbothered.

She glanced at the red wine handed to her by Max, and she smirked." Pardon, but I only drink Senior Pop's handmade red wine. I'm not interested in these kinds of factory-made wines."

She was not pretentious. Her tone was filled with pure elegance from within.

Everyone in the hall frowned. Senior Pop? The legendary Senior Pop? 1

Legend had it that Senior Pop had two hobbies: medical research and wine­making. His handmade wines had gone on the news before, and nobody could buy them from him.

Yet, Charmine claimed to only drink the wines made by Senior Pop?

Was she joking? A nouveau riche like her? Perhaps she did not even have the right to meet this Senior Pop.

Those who already did not particularly like Charmine hated her even more as they shot heated glares her way. 1

How could this woman lie so much? Was she not just some diamond mine owner? Did she have to be so arrogant?
