Chapter 846


    Vera stiffened. Her face fell. She couldn’te up with a response to his interrogation. After opening her mouth, she closed it again.


    Then, she shot back, “Isn’t that the truth? saw


    it with my own eyes. If she wasn’t a prostitute, why would she have such uncertain rtionships with multiple men?”


    Denton roared furiously, “Of course not! She works in Mr. Gardner Senior’s


    team. She’s the one doing the appraisal of negative items, not him! Those men behaved in that way because they needed her help. You


    didn’t even get the most basic information about Skr right! You dered she was a prostitute just like that. You’re making enemies for us!”


    “How could that be possible…” Vera trailed off. She couldn’t believe it. Then, she continued, “Working in Mr. Gardner Senior’s team might not mean she’


    position.”


    Pam interjected with a frown, “Everyone knows what kind of man Mr. Gardner Senior is. No one who wasn’t actually capable wouldn’t have gotten


    into his team. In addition, he wouldn’t do anything that hurt his reputation.”


    Denton must’ve had the same thought. He said firmly, “Do you know that the antiques you bought at the auction are both negative items?”


    “What?” Pam stood up.


    Vera balled her fists and said, “I don’t think the antiques from the auction are problematic. Grandpa, it was my mistake I didn’t do due diligence


    on Skr. I hope I won’t bring trouble to our family.”


    If Skr wasn’t someone who’d bend for money and needed a man to live, had she underestimated Skr?


    Now that she reflected on what happened, Aiken and


    Rowan had always treated Skr with nothing with respect. She definitely wasn’t a ything to them. She’d been interpreting Skr’s actions through a


    personal prejudice.


    Suddenly, she thought of Joe. If Skr wasn’t the woman Vera thought she was, Joe’s feelings for Skr…


    Vera pursed her lips. She didn’t dare to proceed down this train of thought.


    “Skrid out two conditions. The first was to pay her 20 million for her services. The second was for you to apologize to her in person. Both of them ha


    Vera’s features twisted with shock. She eximed, “What? 20 million and an apology? Is Skr out of her mind?”


    Not only was 20 million an impossibly high price, Skr was also asking for an apology


    from Vera. How dare she do so? She even demanded Vera do so in person. Who did Skr think she was?


    Vera was a member of the Ruell family. Who didn’t revere her? Skr must’ve bet her lucky stars to get the chance to suck


    up to the Ruells. Yet, she asked for 20 million dors and an apology!


    “Twenty million is a high price. However, it’s nothing to us. However, when did Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    you offend Skr, Vera?” asked Lawrence Ruell, Hector’s father.


    Although they were a formidable family in Jipsburg, they didn’t make a habit of showing off their wealth. They seldom offended others.


    Vera sucked in a deep breath and exined, “I can’t exin what happened between us. I can fork out 20 million, but I will not apologize.”


    “The second she apologizes, we’ll be at a disadvantage,”mented Denton.


    Although he’d never met Skr before, he was highly skeptical of her conditions. She was


    only a young woman. Was she able to deal with those negative items?


    He’d been fuming just now. In the face of his favorite granddaughter, his rage subsided. He managed to calm down.


    Vera said sadly, “Grandpa, I’ll talk to Joeter to see what he thinks of the situation.”
