Chapter 52
Lucy was smart and observant. She noticed the changes in their expressions and deliberately asked,”
Why didn’t you bothe together?”
Naomi heard Lucy’s question and felt confused. She smugly wrinkled her nose.
“Lucy, I came here as the daughter of the Green family, not Mrs. Hough.”
“Hmph! Youined about me, and you even refused to bring me here! I also despise my identity as
your wife!
Lucy deliberately used a scornful gaze as she swept past him. As she expected, Daddy’s face grew
darker.
“Ah… Why don’t we get a seat first?”
Lucy saw the couple was still angry with each other. She quickly changed the topic and distracted them.
The crowd gradually entered the hall from behind.
“rissa! I told you toe here to socialize with influential people. I didn’t ask you to be an
embarrassment!”
Scott had heard of the earlier incident and reprimanded rissa in displeasure.
“Dear, it was all Naomi’s fault! Why did you allow her to join the event? She embarrassed rissa!”
Lilianined unhappily.
“That’s just a way to keep the Hough family happy. How would I know that you can’t even win against
her?!
Scott rolled his eyes and mocked her. “I didn’t expect you to be so useless even after all the effort |
poured into you!”
Scott nced at rissa in disgust and went to sit at the other side.
rissa felt wronged and angry. Her eyes were full of tears.
“Mom…”
“Your dad is just angry. He has always loved you the most!”
Lilian suppressed her anger andforted her daughter. She removed a dazzlingly beautiful diamond
ne from her neck and handed it to rissa.
rissa stared at her mother with a troubled look. She asked, “Isn’t this the Ocean Star? This belongs to
Naomi’s mother. Mom, what do you n to do with it?”
Lilian sneered. “Her mom is dead! This is now my Ocean Star!”
A sliver of viciousness shed in her eyes. “I’ll make you shine at the auctionter! Let’s give the little b*
tch a good lesson and shame her!”
As she said that, the host got up on stage and officially announced the start of the productunch
conference.
rissa and her mother quickly found a seat and sat down.
Amercial featuring Naomi was shown on the big screen in the hall. It surprised the guests. The
guests gasped. The media correspondents were quick to write their posts!
Themercial was a great sess. Lucy smiled the whole time at themercial’s terrific response
Jack looked at the girl shining on the screen. Her radiance sent ripples across his quiet eyes.
He never expected to see such an outstanding side to her.
She had good medical knowledge and was good at modeling. Did she have more sides to her that he
had yet to learn?
The press conference soon ended. It was time for the auction segment.
rissa suddenly stood up. She raised her hand and showed the ne in her hand to the crowd.
She deliberately raised her voice and announced, “I would like to donate this ne to the auction. I
sincerely hope this would be of help to the poor children in need.”
A ne?
Naomi instinctively turned around. She froze when she saw the ne in rissa’s hand!
It was her mom’s Ocean Star! How could they?!
The guests recognized the world-famous treasure as well and gasped in shock.
“Oh, dear! Isn’t that the Ocean Star? Miss Green is such a charitable person.”
“She’s willing to donate the Ocean Star for auction? Wow! Seems like the Green family is actually very
rich!
All the spotlight was on rissa for her generous donation. The staff walked toward her.
rissa was proud to hear the praises leveled at her. She was particrly exhrated to see Naomi’s
sad but helpless expression.
“Haha, Naomi, just look at how your dead mother’s ne became my stepping stone into the world of
high fashion! You must be heartbroken, right?’
“Wait a moment!”
Naomi suddenly got up and red at rissa. Her eyes were filled with hatred. Her eyes were red and
her voice was cold. “That’s my mom’s ne! Who gave you the right to auction it?!”N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
