Chapter 623
Ryan said, “If you don’t clear up today that the necklace you’re wearing is legit, tomorrow there’ll be a ton of media
claiming you’re sporting some knock–off. You gotta understand, they’re gonna blow this thing out of proportion”
Cornelia pondered for a moment, figuring Ryan had a point
For an average Joe, wearing a fake wasn’t a big deal, but she was the personal assistant to Marcus, the big cheese
of the Hartley Group. In a way, her actions reflected on
Marcus
So, she had to prove that the necklace she was wearing was the real deal.
Cornelia stepped forward, under the watchful eyes of everyone, and announced loudly, “Yeah, this necklace I’m
wearing is the real Heavenly Radiance”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing Comelia’s necklace was legit, Clair’s face twisted up instantly.
She was humiliated by this woman today and found out she owned a real Heavenly Radiance.
How could she stomach this?
She was just an assistant, how could she own a real Heavenly Radiance?
Clair’s hands clenched into fists, her fingernails digging into her palms, not even feeling the pain.
She was deep in the throes of jealousy
“So, just because you say the Heavenly Radiance is real, it’s real?” Of course, there were skeptics in the audience.
A necklace was worth 30 million bucks, how could an assistant own one, unless she had got some special thing
going on with Marcus.
Cornelia quickly thought of a convincing explanation, “A year ago, President Hartley flew to Paris while on his way
home just to drop 30 million bucks on the Heavenly Radiance necklace for his wife
*Today. Mrs. Hartley saw that I was wearing a dress without any jewelry and to keep me from looking too shabby,
she picked out a necklace from her collection to lend me” Not everyone can afford a 30 million dollar necklace, but
if the one buying the necklace was Marcus, no one would question it.
Money was the last thing Marcus lacked
“So, the one who bought the Heavenly Radiance was President Hartley”
“Oh my gosh, the usually icy President Hartley is actually so romantic.”
“Where’s President Hanley? He only showed up for a bit and then disappeared, did he go home to be with his wife?”
“Now that’s a man who really loves his wife
Mentioning Marcus, the guests all showed admiring looks.
In this world, everyone worshiped the strong, and someone like Marcus just commanded admiration.
Everyone in the room accepted that the buyer of the Heavenly Radiance was Marcus, except for the folks from the

Comelia asked, “Can I leave now?”
Who would dare to hold Cornelia back?
Even Granger was especially respectful to Cornelia, “I apologize again on behalf of my son and my wife, I hope you
can forgive them.”
“I hold grudges, if someone crosses me, I’ll find a way to get back at them” Cornelia dropped this line, turned and
walked over to Cameron, lowering her voice and said slowly, “Sir, my lawyer will be in touch with you, you just wait
and see.”
Cameron clenched his fists, grinding his teeth, “You’re just having your moment, let’s see how long you can keep
this up.”
Cornelia responded, “Today is enough.”
Truth was, she didn’t plan to stir things up today, but the Reese family tried to frame her, and ended up showing
their true colors to everyone. They could only blame
themselves
