Chapter 467 Bleeding Wound


    Ka was dumbfounded when she heard that. She stared at Lydia dazedly and said, "What did you


    say? This ne costs 30 million dors?"


    Lydia said sternly, "It''s true. This ne is an exclusive, custom-made piece by VERE Jewelry.


    The diamond was imported from South Lefreqa. There are no other diamonds like it.


    "This ne was custom-made at the request of the chairman of Pinnacle Group. It was


    supposed to be his 50th-anniversary gift for his wife.


    "The price is fair. If you have any questions or are unwilling to pay up, we can always go through the


    legal procedures."


    Ka became visibly upset, and her demeanor weakened considerably. She had been working in


    the entertainment industry for some time.


    She made a pretty penny, but most of the profits went to thepany. The money she actually got


    was only a small percentage of the revenues she generated.


    30 million dors was nearly her entire worth. But she had already said that she would pay. It


    would be utterly humiliating if she went back on her word in public.


    Her mood soured as she looked at Lydia. "It''s just a ne. I''ll pay for it."


    "Alright."


    Lydia didn''t beat around the bush. She told her assistant to provide Ka with thepany''s


    ount information.


    "Then, would you please transfer the money, Ms. Green?"


    Ka gritted her teeth but ultimately ordered her assistant to make the transfer. Lydia received


    notification of the transfer within five minutes.


    Then, Lydia proceeded to hand over the ne to Ka.


    "Since you paid up so readily, the ne belongs to you now."


    Ka was still reeling from the loss she incurred, but she still put up a brave front.


    "It''s just 30 million dors. It''s really nothing much. On the other hand, it took you many years of


    hard work to get to where you are today, Ms. York. It must''ve been hard, right?"


    Everyone else fell silent after she said that. Even Caleb, who had been standing some distance


    away, started to frown.


    Ka was in a bad mood because she had just been forced to pay 30 million dors. She needed


    to vent, so she made Lydia her target.


    "What are you trying to say?" Lydia asked.


    Ka smiled and said slowly, "I heard you''re an orphan, Ms. York. You only managed toplete


    your studies because the Lewis family provided you with financial aid.


    "Did you even further your studies in jewelry design overseas? Or was that just aplete lie?"


    Lydia clenched her fists when she heard Ka''s words. Her background had always been


    something she wanted to hide, even after so many years. It was also the reason why she didn''t dare


    pursue her own happiness.

    But Ka had revealed her darkest secret to the public.


    "What''s wrong, Ms. York? Cat got your tongue? Or are you just trying to hide from the truth about


    your birth and background?"


    Lydia met Ka''s gaze without a hint of evasion. "What are you trying to say?"


    Ka didn''t even attempt to mask her malice. She said condescendingly, "It must''ve been hard for a


    person without any special background like you to get to where you are now.


    "Especially since you''re a woman, too. Can you say for sure that you didn''t sleep your way to the


    top?"


    The crowd inhaled sharply in shock. Everyone suddenly seemed interested in the story.


    Ka added, "Why don''t you share the secret to your sess with us, Ms. York?"


    Lydia smiled, but her gaze was icy. "The secret to sess? The secret is that I shouldn''t have put


    up with your nonsense for so long!"


    After she said that, she reached out and struck Ka in the face. The p echoed in the room, and


    a red handprint appeared on Ka''s face.
