“Ms. Clemons, we didn’t invite them, but they somehow got in,” Mary explained hurriedly, “I want to chase them

out, but they just won’t leave.”

“Oh,” Emily uttered with a sudden realization, “There’s no need to chase them out. I allowed them to stay.”

“Why did you let them in, Ms. Clemons?” Mary asked, bemused.

“Oh, they actually came to me to apologize and repent,” Emily said, “Well, I don’t like to hold grudges, so I forgave

them.”

“Apologize? Ms. Clemons, have they done something bad to you?” Mary asked, feigning curiosity.

Sighing, Emily said, “You guys don’t know her yet, do you? She used to be my best friend, actually. We were like

sisters. We talked about everything and kept no secrets from each other. But then she flirted with my then-fiancé,

Zeke Williams, and stole him from me. This time, she’s reflected on her mistakes, so she came to me to confess

and atone for her sins.”

Lacey’s face flushed red. “Emily, you...”

“You’d better shut up if you don’t want Zeke to be wanted nationwide,” Emily threatened in a low voice.

Lacey was flabbergasted, but she dared not defend herself.

Meanwhile, the crowd went wild.

“Damn! So, she’s the woman who snatched the Great Marshal away from Ms. Clemons back then.”

“Haha, I didn’t think she would have the brass neck to come ‘round here to apologize.”

“Apologize? You actually believe that? Obviously, she’s here to suck up to Ms. Clemons seeing that Ms. Clemons has

made it big.”

Lacey was so embarrassed; she felt as if she was standing naked in front of everyone.

Emily put on a smug face, enjoying the spectacle.

The more Lacey suffered, the happier she felt.

Emily waved her hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

“Alright, all guests have arrived. Let the ceremony officially begin.”

Emily then left with Mary.

Nancy stomped her foot in rage. “That b**ch! The two of them clearly colluded long ago to humiliate Lacey.”

Dawn clenched her fists. “F**k! Better not give me the chance to turn things around. Otherwise, I’ll hammer these

two b*tches to death!”

“Sit down.” Lacey pulled them down to their seats. “I don’t mind suffering if that’s what it takes to save Zeke.”

The ceremony officially began.

The first person to speak was naturally Emily, the legal representative of Emperor’s Residence.

The guests present knew that Emily was just a working woman before——a puppet of Julian——and they despised

her from the bottom of their hearts.

But for the sake of Julian’s reputation, they cheered for her, so much so that they interrupted her speech several

times with hearty rounds of applause.

After Emily, it was Julian who spoke, and his few words beat a thousand words.

Emily had also arranged for Mary to speak on stage as an employee representative.

Mary’s speech was filled with disparaging words about her former company, Linton Group, and praises that elevate

Emperor’s Residence.

To put it bluntly, her speech was a collection of flattery.

After Emily ended her speech, it was the representative of business partners who spoke.

To Lacey’s surprise, the representative was an old acquaintance of theirs.

He was Linton Group’s biggest business partner.

There was no doubt that this partner had betrayed Linton Group and turned over to Emily.

After showering Emperor’s Residence with the most ingratiating language, the partner suddenly pointed fingers at

Linton Group.

He looked at Lacey impishly and said, “Ms. Hinton, I heard that Linton Group will soon go into liquidation. Even the

headquarters building is at risk. We can’t continue our cooperation. Consider this a unilateral breach of contract on

your part. How do you think the penalties should be calculated, Ms. Hinton?”

Undoubtedly, this was also arranged by Emily in advance to condemn Lacey.

Everyone zeroed in on Lacey.
