Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

The big screen lit up with a detailed comparison of Claire's before-and-after photos, showing everything from her consultation dates to follow-up appointments, and the final results of her cosmetic surgery, right alongside snapshots of her old life. It even included info about her so-called adoptive father, the CEO of the Lewis family's global empire. Every detail was spelled out, leaving no doubt that Claire was a phony heiress. Right then, a reporter piped up, "There's some buzz that today's Emerging News article might be fake. Was Ms. Sophie behind it?"

Angelo was ready to jump in, but Sophie just smiled and said, "That article was written by a friend trying to clear my name. They got the info from a third party and didn't double-check it. My friend fell for their scheme. If anyone wants more details, catch me after the press conference. I'll hand out some documents showing what tricks this third party used and their real agenda."

Sophie wasn't just hinting; she was calling out the lies outright. Her message couldn't be clearer: James set them up.

Seeing this, another journalist asked, "So how can Ms. Sophie prove she's the true Russell family heiress?"

"This Ms. Claire says she's the Russell heiress, which puzzled me since Russell Enterprises tanked a year ago and got folded into my S Corporation. I'm not sure what Ms. Claire's playing at. But since she's claiming to be the heiress, she should back it up with evidence, rather than me proving myself. Don't you agree?"

With a slight smile, Sophie added, "I've laid out the plastic surgery evidence for everyone to dig into. As for Ms. Claire... I hope she can show some solid proof of her identity. If not, I'll see her and Burke International in court to get my reputation back."

With that, Sophie stood up, wrapping up the press conference, "If this drama keeps up, I'll take it to court."Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

She turned and left, with Colby close behind, keeping watch.

The reporters had a ton more questions, but Angelo's team held them back, saying, "You can ask us anything. We've got the original documents from Ms. Sophie

BUMS

Angelo had already printed a hundred copies of the info Sandy gave them, betting it'd be viral online and in weekly mags by tomorrow. Claire being outed as a fake heiress was solid as a rock.

Adler and Jenna were jittery in the audience. When Sophie wrapped up quickly, Jenna asked, "Is it all sorted?" Sophie gave a wry smile, "Not even close."

"But doesn't everyone now think Claire's a fake heiress?"

"Their aim isn't to make Claire a genuine heiress, but to blow her up in infamy. You know the saying, any publicity is good publicity... This new Lewis Inc. is going to keep us on our toes."
