Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275 Everyone Questioned Her Identity

Cecilia didn't speak from the beginning. She appeared to be not aggressive, but her imposing manner could not be ignored.

She looked at Maggie with cold eyes. When their eyes met, there was tension in the air.

In the face of Maggie's offer, Karen explained solemnly, "Mrs. Taylor, I understand what you mean. As president of the KLCS, I have the power of appointment.

"I have just removed Miss Janet as a permanent member. Now, I will directly appoint Miss Cecilia as the new permanent member. She will take over Ivone's position.

"Since Cecilia has become our new permanent member, she will also be a member of KLCS. Mrs. Taylor, any objections?"

Maggie did feel upset inside. "President, I just think that your dictatorship will only make other members dissatisfied, and you'll lose them. Aren't you afraid that people will quit the KLCS?"

"Oh? Is that so? KLCS has always respected everyone's own choices. It's not easy for any member to get in, but it's easy for any member to leave. You can leave if you want. See yourself out!"

Karen had established KLCS precisely because she had the stature and capital to make friends with high society. Therefore, she had absolutely no fear of one or two wealthy women leaving KLCS.

After all, women from the upper class competed to join KLCS because it was a representation of their worth and status. If Maggie didn't care, she could leave on her own, and there would be no one to keep her.

Everyone could see that Karen aggressively offended others for Cecilia's sake.

A lot of people didn't want to quit KLCS, so they did not dare to say anything now. Because once they quit KLCS, they would never have the chance to join again.

The benefits provided by KLCS to its members every year were not available to ordinary people.

Thus, only a fool would choose to quit!

Maggie was infuriated, but she couldn't get angry on the spot. After all, she didn't want to quit KLCS, and it was hard enough for her to become a permanent member.

Maggie was upset at the thought of Cecilia suddenly joining KLCS and becoming her equal as a permanent member.

"President, even if you accepted Cecilia as a member, KLCS is not only for the rich. May I ask if she has done anything for the women's cause?"

Facing Maggie's aggressive question, Karen looked around the room.

"Let's just say, Miss Cecilia has donated 150 million dollars to charity in Gleam Gallery before her divorce from Mr. Nelson. In addition, she has donated a teaching building for the University of Center City. Aren't these things she has done contributing back to society?"

Soon, Karen's examples were questioned.

Petunia scoffed lightly, "She's doing charity by using the Nelson family's funds in the name of the Nelson family. The person who made the contributions was Mr. Nelson, and now Cecilia and Remington divorced. Do these contributions have anything to do with her?"

"Yes. That's the Nelson family's contribution!"

Many people echoed Petunia. And they were ashamed of Cecilia's donation and other behaviors in Remington's name.

Faced with this, Karen said, "You all have some doubts about the examples I mentioned. Fine. So let me ask you another question. Do you guys know the internationally renowned new artist Mr. Guston?"

"Yeah! Who doesn't know Mr. Guston?"

"Yes. My family even bought Mr. Guston's works. I heard that Mr Guston donates all the money from the auction of his works to the poor and disadvantaged areas. He has helped many people in need."

"Mr. Guston is the one who has made great contributions to society!"

"That's right. All the proceeds from his works abroad have been used for charitable causes. People like him who are of high character and helpful are examples for us to follow."

When it came to Mr. Guston, everyone in the room heard of him.

A while ago, everyone still remembered the real and fake Mr. Guston incident in Gleam Gallery. It was because of Mr. Guston's fame that people were trying to impersonate him.
