Chapter 274


    Chapter 274 The ANXIN Group Belongs To Me


    At that moment, Neera was still wearing the white evening dress that she wore during the ribbon–


    cutting ceremony. She exuded an unspeakable kind of aura that made heads turn.


    When the two families saw Neera, they all stopped in their tracks. Everyone was staring at her, and all


    of them


    had different expressions.


    Neera could not help but frown.


    It was really unlucky to bump into these people on such an auspicious day!


    She pursed her lips and pretended not to see them.


    However, Harley was not going to let such a good opportunity go. He suddenlyughed while looking


    earnestly at the same time.


    “Hey, isn’t this Neera? Long time no see, and you’ve never been prettier. Your father and I were talking


    about you just now, and we could never have guessed that we would bump into you here… This is


    such a good coincidence! Why not join us for dinner and have our little reunion?”


    When Neera looked at Harley, her eyes were ice–cold.


    She remembered meeting this guy a long time ago.


    She was still engaged to Zachary at that time.


    Harley was really arrogant, as he saw himself as someone out of Neera’s league. Never once did he


    take Neera seriously at all.


    Now that he was suddenly so weing, it was really creepy!


    Neera rejected him with a cold expression. “No thanks. I don’t eat with strangers.”


    Harley’s face stiffened when he heard how cold she was. However, he did notsh out in anger. He


    made a fake chuckle to ease the awkward atmosphere.


    “Hey, how can you say that we are strangers? Although you and Zachary’s marriage never came to


    fruition, we have known each other for so long that I even consider all of us family! There might be


    some bad blood between you two, but as they say, let bygones be bygones, no? Look at you, you’re


    completely transformed after going overseas. They say that every cloud has a silver lining. You


    shouldn’t be so uptight and calctive, don’t you think?”


    Every cloud has a silver lining, you say? She snorted internally.


    She could not believe how shameless this man was. It really renewed her perception of him, which was


    already bad in the first ce.


    They said that the apple did not fall far from the tree. Suddenly, Zachary’s character made more sense.


    She could care less about these people. She did not hold back when she said, “Mr. Fain, you must be


    kidding. I was banished from the family a few years ago, so it’s true that your family and I have nothing


    to do with each other. And you said that you consider us family? Give me a break. The only rtive I


    have is my aunt. Other than her, I consider everyone else strangers!”


    Harley’s face grew darker after Neera fired back at him.


    12:01 Thu, 31 Aug OL


    The atmosphere suddenly felt heavier.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    Alfonso could not stand it anymore. He scolded Neera, “Neera, is this how your aunt wants you to


    behave? Talking back to your elders? Where are your manners? Apologize to Harley now!”


    Neera’s face was still chilly. A frosty look appeared in her eyes.


    “Why should I apologize? Aunt Adriana teaches me to respect the elderly and cherish the young ones,


    but she only teaches me to respect those who deserve it. In my eyes, you guys never deserve it! Who


    are you to reprimand me, anyway? As a father, you never fulfilled your duties, not even once, yet you


    still dare to criticize me? You better take a good look in the mirror yourself! You have no right to point


    fingers at me, not in this lifetime!”


    Alfonso felt his blood pressure rise. He never thought that Neera could be so feisty.


    “You…”


    Roxanne could not take it anymore. She red at her nemesis with venom in her eyes.


    “Neera, do you really think that you’re the main person in ANXIN Group just because of some


    exaggerated news? When the ANXIN Group was in its budding stage, the Garcia family invested in it.


    You have nothing to do with its sess! Do you really think you’re the boss now just because Aunt


    Adrian has been looking out for you? Let me get it off my chest. The ANXIN Group is always


    associated with the Garcia Group. Thepany always belongs to us. You have no part in this!”


    Neera almost could not stifle herughter when she heard such ridiculous reasoning.


    No wonder the Fain family tried to build a connection with the Garcia family. They must have realized


    that Neera had a far–from–ordinary background.


    Roxanne was rambling about the ANXIN Group belonging to the Garcia family. How shameless could


    she be to spout such utter nonsense?


    Neera broke intoughter, and it was a sarcastic one.


    “Am I hearing things? Do you really think that the ANXIN Group has something to do with the Garcia


    Group? Roxanne, you’re still as thick–faced as ever! Aunt Adriana set up thepany all by herself,


    and she never borrowed money from you guys. You never contributed to the ANXIN Group throughout


    its growth, but now you are trying to get your hands on the profitablepany. Do you even think of


    asking Aunt Adriana about this?”


    Roxanne could not find any words to refute Neera. She almost choked on her anger.


    Neera was speaking the truth here. Roxanne knew that she could never win this argument!


    “As for whether I have anything to do with the ANXIN Group, let me tell you something. In fact, I am


    actually the true heir to thepany. Aunt Adriana drafted a will not long ago, stating that if something


    were to happen to her, every asset that she has would legally belong to me. Not only that, I am actually


    overseeing more than half of all of her assets. How about this? Let this sink in, and let your jealousy


    drive you crazy. You know deep down that there’s nothing you can do to change the facts. Facts will


    always be facts!”
