Chapter 452
Lydia was so furious that she stomped her foot on the ground. “Y-You—”
Narrowing her eyes at Lydia, Lina said coldly, “Please mind your words and actions, young lady. You're
an adult, aren't you? Besides, what makes you think I'm impersonating Vespera? If you want to accuse
me, I'd advise you to show me proof.”
“Yes. Show us proof. Bailey suspected Ms. Young of impersonation a few days ago, too. In the end,
Bailey got slapped in the face with the truth and had no choice but to apologize. So, you must be
responsible for your actions if it turns out you slandered Master Vespera wrongly.”
“Y-You guys...” Lydia trembled with anger.
In truth, she wanted to tell them that Vespera was truly dead and that the woman standing before them
was a fake.
However, from what Lydia had seen, she figured she would be torn to shreds if she said that.
“They're right, Liddy. You've accused Ms. Young wrongly. Please apologize to her.”
An icy voice traveled from the crowd, and Bailey stepped out from a corner.
“Psst. It's Bailey.”
“Whoa, it's Bailey.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFixing her teary eyes on Bailey, Lydia choked out, “You know the truth, Bay. She's obviously—”
However, Bailey grabbed Lydia's arm and shot the latter a look. Smiling, the former said, “Do you
remember what I told you at the Chivers residence yesterday? Listen to me and don't let strangers
affect your mood. If you've made a mistake, then you've made a mistake. Apologize to Ms. Young now.
During the auction event that night, she had sworn that the purple diamond necklace was Beauty's
Tear, and it was the truth.”
Lydia pursed her lips indignantly. After all, she was still too young to control her temper.
“I'm sorry. I shouldn't have spouted nonsense and accused Ms. Young of impersonating Master
Vespera. Please forgive me and don't hold a grudge against me.”
“Wow. She's truly Bailey's supporter, and what's more, they seem close. Young lady, was it Bailey who
forced you to accuse Ms. Young of not being Master Vespera?”
Lydia could not help but curse, “Shut the f*ck up! Don't accuse Bay! Go on and support whoever you
want. One day, you'll be punished for your choices.”
“Hey, you rascal. Watch your words! How dare you speak so rudely at such a young age? Did your
mother not teach you any manners?”
Lydia could not take it anymore. Just as she was about to tear the person into shreds, she was stopped
by Bailey.
They're just a pack of mad dogs. It's pointless arguing with them.
Lina, who stood on the stage, looked down at Bailey with a smile. “What's the meaning of this, Ms.
Jefferson? Are you trying to drag me into the mess because you can't stand seeing others becoming
successful while you're riddled with rumors of your unknown background? A few days ago, you claimed
Beauty's Tear was fake at the auction, implying that I was impersonating Vespera. And now, you
brought a young girl over here to slander me. You've got quite the guts, eh?”
Upon hearing her words, Bailey arched a brow. Is she trying to pick a fight with me? This is interesting.
Two days ago, Bailey had decided to help Lina so that the latter could make a name for herself in the
appraising industry. In other words, she would be like a senior promoting her junior.
Regardless, it never occurred to Bailey that Lina would be so arrogant and would go overboard.
“Look, I'm being respectful here, but you, Ms. Young, are looking at me condescendingly. What is this?
Hasn't it only been a few days since you came to Hallsbay? Do you really think you can replace me in
this city?”
Lina blinked like a frightened and piteous little bunny. Sounding anxious, she said, “I-I'm just telling the
truth. You've been picking on me over and over again. I don't even know what I've done to offend you.”
As soon as those words left her mouth, the crowd started attacking Bailey.
“Bailey, are you trying to pick on her?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Don't you dare think you can do whatever you want just because you have so many powerful
identities. Master Vespera is right. You're riddled with rumors of your biological father's identity being
unknown, and you're afraid that Master Vespera will overshadow you. That's why you're using your
powers to suppress her, aren't you?”
“Hmph. Looks like this woman is addicted to being a big shot. That's why she wants to have a powerful
position in every industry. And if she can't get involved, she won't let her opponents off easily.”
“Does she really think she can do whatever she wants in Hallsbay? Her scandals aren't even resolved
yet. How dare she act so high and mighty?”
“Don't be scared, Master Vespera. Many of us here will definitely support you. Bailey has to go through
us if she wants to kick you out of Hallsbay.”
“That's right. Don't be afraid of her.”
Bailey flashed Lydia a smile. “Come on. Let's check out the treasures of Hallsbay's museum. It's too
noisy here. My ears can't take it.”
Clenching her teeth, Lydia said, “I swear I'm going to rip her mask off during the opening ceremony.
When the time comes, I'll bring the Xanthos family's most famous appraiser to the event. I'm going to
make sure Lina gets utterly humiliated once she makes a mistake.”
Hearing that, Bailey patted Lydia's shoulder and said amusedly, “Now that's more like it. The whole
idea of messing with someone is to let them experience what it's like to be on the top before bringing
them back to reality in the cruelest way possible.”
Lydia glanced at the surrounding people who supported the impostor and gave Bailey a thumbs up.
She could not wait to see Lina at her worst.
