Therefore, most people sided with Ines. One by one they started criticizing Lyana.
– Lyana Dubois, you can’t bully your sister just because she’s nice!
– Is not it? I think Mr. Perrot doesn’t want to be with Lyana because she’s arrogant, overbearing, and crazy.
– Lyana, you said you were growing Suranne grass. You must provide evidence. Forget it, there’s something wrong with your brain. You probably don’t even know what proof is!
When Ines learned that everyone was speaking for her, her eyes instantly went red. Her tears fell one by one, and she looked at Collin with tear-stained cheeks.
– Brother Collin, please convince my sister. Don’t let her hold up Director Huet’s opening ceremony just because she wants to get your
attention.
Collin had never liked Lyana to begin with. Seeing how Lyana was sting her weight in an inappropriate situation, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
– Lyana Dubois, look at yourself. How do you think you canpare yourself to Ines? You’re like a shrew right now. You do not
doesn’t even look like a girl from an upscale family. Hurry up and get lost. Don’t embarrass yourself here.
Director Huet, who was standing to the side, frowned. He had seen Lyana grow up. How could he let her be intimidated by strangers?
With a somber expression, Director Huet said coldly,
– Mr. Perrot, before investigating this matter thoroughly, you should always watch your words!
Lyana was crazy. Everyone present was aware of this. Why was Director Huet always defending a madwoman?
However, he couldn’t afford to offend Director Huet. He could only control his temper and say:
– I’m sorry, my heart ached for Ines just now. I couldn’t help it!
– Brother Collin, I’m sorry, very good director Huet I don’t matter.
Ines said while crying.
– And you!
Director Huet frowned, his expression displeased.
– Today I open my research institute. Why are you crying?
She bit her lip, injured. One by one, her tears fell silently.
Chiara gave Lyana a reassuring look.
Lyana smiles but says nothing.
Everyone’s gaze fell on Lyana’s face.
Director Huet looked at Lyana softly and said,
– Lyana, think about it. Is there anything that can prove that it was you who grew Suranne grass?
– It’s not necessary.
Ines wiped away her tears and stepped forward, tears swirling in her eyes.
– Since sister said she had cultivated Suranne grass, she must have done it. As long as my sister is happy, it’s okay if I suffer a little!
Lyana’s expression turned cold. Ines’s asional words had confirmed that Lyana was a lunatic, and made clear the usation that Lyana had stolen her Suranne Grass.
The surrounding guests looked at Ines’ aggrieved expression and nodded in agreement.
Ines did not speak. She just stood there with her head down, looking extremely crestfallen.
Deep down, Director Huet trusted Lyana. However, he was the organizer in this situation, and he had to give everyone an exnation. He asked,
– Miss Ines Dubois, Lyana, please tell me the truth. To whom exactly
does this pot of Suranne Grass belong?
When Ines heard Director Huet’s words, she turned to him, giving him the impression of wanting to speak, but held back. His gaze finally fell on Lyana’s face, and a trace of hesitation crossed her face. For a moment, she seemed to be caught in a serious dilemma.
After a while, Lyana’s gaze hardened as she said,
– Suranne’s grass belongs to sister!
Lyana didn’t speak. There was nothing wrong with Ines’ answer, except for her acting as if she was giving in.
Everyone couldn’t help but feel outraged for Ines.
– Lyana Dubois, you’ve gone too far. How can you bully your sister like that?
– Lyana, you’re really shameless. You go crazy trying to get attention!
– Miss Ines, you can’t keep going back. It will only make cheeky people, who I won’t name, ask for more and more.
Vincent stood to the side, his thin lips pursed and his phoenix eyes narrowed. His gaze fell on the people who had spoken of Ines.
The coldness in his eyes gradually intensified. His well-defined hands were clenched tightly into fists, and the veins on the backs of his hands were closing violently, as if he was holding something back.
Seeing this, Thomas quickly jotted down all their names. These people clearly did not know what was good for them. Second Young Master Sanchez would definitely need those names.
Tears welled up in Ines’ eyes. She turned to Lyana, who was standing next to her, and made a pitiful expression.
– Everyone, stop talking. This was grown by my sister. Please stop attacking him. Thank you.
Not only did Ines’ words not make the people around her sympathize with Lyana, but it also increased their dissatisfaction with Lyana on several asions.
Some of them were so angry that they yearned to step forward and tear Lyana to shreds. It was the first time they had seen such a cheeky woman.
At this moment, a middle-aged man entered. He wore a leather suit and shoes and had his hair done. He approached Ines and said softly,
– Second young mistress, I’m really sorry for beingte!
Everyone’s eyes fell on the middle-aged man.
The man was none other than the great n of the field of scientific research, Richard Vidal.
The famous Richard Vidal had developed drugs to treat leukeLyana at the age of 25, saving countless families.
He was very well known in the medical field and was deeply respected.
After that, he had made many contributions to the country. This time, he came especially to look for Ines Dubois.
Everyone’s gaze fell on Ines.
They didn’t initially know where she got the Suranne herb from, but now they figured it out. So there was someone above Ines.
Richard’s gaze swept the crowd. He said solemnly,
– Ladies and gentlemen, Ines Dubois is the one who nted the Suranne grass. I had the chance to witness its growth.
Richard’s words seemed to reassure everyone. Now everyone waspletely certain that Ines was the one who nted the Suranne grass.
Lyana frowned slightly. She did not expect Richard Vidal to appear, even less that he was there to help Ines.
She finally understood why Ines was so bold that she said that the Suranne grass belonged to her. So there was a big shot to back her up.
So she had put a lot of effort into preparing for this battle.
Lyana asked calmly,
– Mr. Vidal, do you know how Suranne Grass is nted?
With his hands behind his back, Richard said candidly,
– Naturally, the seed must first be nted. The nt will take root and eventually sprout.
– Hey.
Lyana was nowpletely certain that Richard knew nothing. He was simply describing the process of growing Suranne grass ording to his imagination.
– Is it true?
When the people around them heard Lyana’s words, they were all upset. They felt she was too arrogant. She didn’t even respect her elders.
– Lyana must be so angry that she can’t speak!
– When I saw her before, I thought she was an intelligent and generous young woman. I didn’t expect her to be so vicious.
– Such a vicious person should go to the eighteenth level of hell!
Hearing everyone’s words, Ines bit her lip and put on a disinterested facade, saying:C0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
– Uncle Vidal, it’s all my fault. I lied to you. This Suranne grass… This Suranne grass was nted by my sister.
Seeing Ines look conceding defeat, Richard gently patted Ines on the back and said sympathetically,
– Good kid, you can’t alwayspromise. Do not be sad. Uncle will defend you!
With that, Richard’s gaze fell on Director Huet’s face. A trace of a smile appeared on his serious face.
– Director Huet, it’s been a long time. I apologize foring uninvited.
Richard and Principal Huet were ssmates.
– Since you’re already here, what’s the point of saying all that now? You are just an obstacle!
Manager Huet knew that Richard Vidal was a despicable person, so he didn’t bother to treat him hospitably either.
Richard’s skin was thicker than a city wall. He didn’t take Director Huet’s displeasure to heart at all. His gaze fell on Lyana’s face.
– Lyana, you have to have principles. As an older sister, how can you still steal what belongs to your younger sister? You will never have a foothold in the medical field if you continue to be like this. If you’re ready to apologize to Ines now, then I’ll let past tenses pass for what you did in the past.
– Stealing the fruits of someone else’sbor effortlessly. Richard, you are right!
Director Huet seemed to imply something.
Richardpletely ignored Director Huet’s words. No one else present at this time couldpare to him, especially when ites to his status in the medical field. Many in the crowd would still have to squeeze through it to get where they wanted to be.
– Lyana Dubois, apologize to your sister!
Richard shouted sternly.
– Mr. Vidal, what you say is a bit strange. Just because you said she nted the Suranne weed, does that mean she must have been the one who nted it? are you god I must have missed the memo.
Lyana’s expression was one of absolute calm.
When the people around them heard Lyana’s words, they turned red with anger.
– Lyana Dubois, do you know who he is?
– Lyana, how you fight with your sister is none of our business. But now you are ndering Mr. Vidal. Have you lost your mind?
Lyana stood there and watched these people pointing fingers at her, each one preaching morality to her. His lips curved in disdain.
– It’s just a stalk of Suranne Grass. Surely it will be good if you can’t get it back.
– Lyana Dubois is really crazy. A stem of Suranne Grass is worth tens of millions!
– If she’s not crazy, how could she not know how precious Suranne Grass is?
– All right, let’s all go. Lyana must try to get attention and steal her sister’s credit!
– She’s so disgusting!
At this moment, assistant director Huet fell into the room, panting heavily.
– Director Huet, Miss Lyana’s gift has arrived!
When the people around them heard the wizard’s words, they all startedughing.
– A gift that can cause Director Huet’s assistant to panic. Lyana’s gift must be truly unique!
– Did Lyana send a bucket of shit?
– Who knows? It may be true!
When Director Huet heard the words of the people around him, his expression darkened. His gaze fell on the assistant’s face.
– Why are you panicking? What have you already seen?
The assistant looked aggrieved. He asked carefully,
– So… so, should I have the gifts moved now?
– Do it!
Director Huet knew full well that no matter how bad Lyana’s present was, it wouldn’t be as bad as others imed.
The assistant nodded and left.
Viewers watched Lyana with interest, expecting tough at her.
Richard looked at Lyana arrogantly and said calmly,
– I have a photo of Ines growing Suranne grass here.
With that, he unlocked his phone and shot a photo, handing his phone to everyone.
In the photo, Ines was happily holding a small pot of flowers. A green shoot had sprouted from the pot. Needless to say, it has to be Suranne Grass.
