Advertisement
While everyone stood gaping at the projector screen, Xie Eun observed the crowd.She thought that the amount of investment was what had shocked the people and was still unaware of the power of her husband's name.But in her heart, she felt extremely thankful for this man's support.He had helped her without asking for anything in return.Her heart was filled with gratitude for this man who was her husband.Her father had indeed had her best interests at heart while she had been blind to Si Jing and his motives...
Though,deep in her heart, she was thinking all this, her expression was serene and poised.She was carefully observing her grandmother's disbelieving reaction and thus was almost pushed off the stage by Lu Yeona.If, Lawyer Wen who had walked to her had not held her hand at the end moment,she would have definitely fallen off the stage and broken a few bones..
Lu Yeona's sudden attack shook everyone out of their stupor and everyone started to whisper amongst themselves.Some wondered the authenticity of the signature while the others marveled at the swift attack of the new heiress.Some felt pity for Yeona while many wonen whohad been bullied felt satisfaction at this woman's downfall..However, Yeona on the other hand seemed to have turned a little crazy as she shouted,"You little country sl** bumpkin!Who do you think you are?You should have died with your parents!Grandma thought that you are innocent and brought you here but you are a cunning little girl!First you seduced Si Jing and now you are using your beauty to tie up with Alpha Group of Companies!You think you are smart?CEO Wolf will swallow the entire Lu Enterprises and spit you out like a bone!My family has worked hard for twenty years!It was not so that a loser like you could take it!I don't know what viles you have been using to seduce males and make them give you money.First,it was Si Jing who bought this dress and then this!Knowing CEO Wolf's reputayion,he wouldn't choose a bi*** like you so either this is fake orbyou must have slept with some subordinate that helped you dupe the esteemed C EO!And you say you are the rightful heir!That adds another man to the list!Because I know Si Jing is not married to you and neither would a man like CEO Wolf would accept you.....But to claim the shares,you have to be married before you turn twenty!And you turned twenty today while I time twenty day after tomorrow!I am the rightful heir to Lu Enterprises!"

By the end of the rant, Lu Yeona's shrill voice echoed through the ballroom.Her brother finally succeeded in dragging her away.Her image as a gentle and proud noblewoman had been dragged into the mud becausee of her impulsive.Both siblings could only glare at Xie Eun as they left.Slowly, old lady Lu,deliberately and slowly placed her microphone on the side and walked over to where Xie Eun and Lawyer Wen stood.."Xie Eun,I don't know what sort of crooked story this man has told you but I know one thing,I will not take what happened tonight silently.You will have to pay a heavy price.I'll make sure that you pay my Yeona back for this humiliation..And I would definitely be interested in knowing how you fulfill the conditions of the will tomorrow!Xie Eun,I have treated you too well until now but you have attacked me!And not you will know what the consequences are for my enemies!"
As the Lu family walked off the stage,the celebration was left midway. A Public Relations head then walked onto thenstage and tried to handle the matters,urging the people to not think of business and enjoy the party tonight.
Soon, under the skillful urging of the woman,the people started to mingle again..But the current could be felt thoroughly under the surface.Many people could hardly wait to get out and get a confirmation about this news.The others were trying to get closer to Xie Eun so that they xould grasp this opportunity, to get close to Wolf..But she was protected by the circle of the old businessmen who wanted to protect the child.However as a few people were allowed to mingle with her,she noticed that everyone wanted to know about Wolf...As the pattern emerged, Xie Eun slowly realized the these people's reaction was not because of the investment but because of the name.She could not help but wonder about this man..Finally after sometime, Xie Eun felt weary of looking at the fake smiles of these fake people and thus faking a tired look for herself,she excused herself..Xie Eun slowly walked towards the cloakroom to collect her coat as she walked outside.She was finally alone in this world and needed to accept it. Her father,Si Jing and her so called new family,everyone had left her.Aunt Su would also be leaving soon since her sister was unwell..Xie Eun truly felt lost as she walked towards the doors.And in this moment she realized the extent to which she had come to rely on Si Jing.
