Chapter 626
It seemed that Harriet and Lily held old grudges against each other and now they had more.
‘If I could belittle Lily in front of Harriet, making Harriet's enemy lose face, it’ll definitely please Harriet!’
With that thought, the man who was the first to approach Harriet to buy the jewel instantly switched to a look of righteous indignation.
He addressed Lily directly, "Miss Lily, you cheated first, and then falsely accused others, even spouting malicious words. Is this the kind of upbringing befitting a lady of the Lynch family? I never expected such a noble house could raise someone with such malevolent intentions! I wonder if the ancestors of the Lynch family can rest in peace seeing this scene!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, other people around started to voice their criticism of Lily.
In an instant, everyone in the venue looked at Lily with disdain and disgust.
Lily was practically going mad with anger.
She had never faced such universal contempt and public accusation from everyone before!
As the daughter of the Lynch family, Lily had been treated like a princess wherever she went.
She was always the center of attention! Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Even in a sea of people, she was the most dazzling.
Any request she made, especially from men, was never refused!
But ever since Harriet arrived at Imperium,
What princess?
What center of attention?
All of it became nothing but a mirage!
Everything she once had was destroyed by Harriet.
Not only had Delbert never given her a second glance, but even her brother, Liam, who had doted on her since childhood, started to speak to her coldly and even stopped her allowance over a trivial matter!
And those friends?
If she didn't reach out to them first, they would even avoid her on the street.
Wasn't Harriet just an orphan with no one to rely on?
She was lucky to have caught the attention of the Bass brothers and become their sister, but essentially she was just an uncultured and unimportant girl from another city.
Lily believed that Harriet could never match up to her.
So why did Harriet take away everything she once had as soon as she arrived at Imperium?
Even the man Lily loved, Harriet refused to give him up and kept causing trouble for her.
Harriet deserved to die!
At this moment, in Lily's eyes, Harriet seemed like an evil demon capable of all wickedness.
Lily had completely forgotten that it was always she who initiated trouble with Harriet.
As for Harriet? She never bothered with Lily.
Now, consumed by rage, Lily's malice seemed almost palpable, and jealousy grew rampantly in her heart.
"Harriet, it was clearly you who cheated, clearly you who were in cahoots with that salesperson! The things that salesperson said must have been rehearsed with you! A woman as malicious as you doesn't deserve to live in this world, let alone have Delbert!"
"Slap!"
A slap resounded.
Everyone's gaze turned to the man who had slapped Lily.
After Delbert retracted his hand, he calmly took out a tissue and wiped where he had touched Lily with a look of disgust.
He never hit women, but this time he couldn't stand it any second longer.
His voice was icy cold with a strong hint of disdain, "Your last sentence, along with this slap, I return them to you exactly as they were!"
