She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 708

Loyce acted as if she hadn't heard a single word of the commotion. Dressed in a sleek, minimalist pale moonlight classic dress, she radiated a cool, elegant brilliance as she calmly explained a new holistic wellness method to several invited CEOs.

The business world might still doubt her corporate acumen, but when it came to her medical expertise, these titans of industry were practically ready to whip out notebooks and take dictation.

Seeing Loyce completely ignoring them, Edgar shot a pointed look to one of his shareholders.

The man immediately raised his voice. "Ms. Lonsdale! I respect that you're an outstanding doctor and the eldest daughter of the Lonsdale family, but don't you think you should act in a way that honors those titles? You owe Mr. Lonsdale an apology! When you make a mistake, you should face the consequences like an adult, instead of playing dumb!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, the surrounding area plunged into silence. Countless eyes zeroed in on Loyce once again, filled with scrutiny and mounting pressure.

Loyce turned around slowly. Her calm gaze landed on the outspoken Macrostar executive, then swept past the 'heartbroken' Edgar and the barely-concealed smugness of Alicia. A faint, almost imperceptible smirk graced her lips.

"An apology? I haven't done anything wrong. Why should I apologize?"

The shareholder’s tone grew fierce. "Take these A7 and A8 plots, for example! You clearly wanted them too, but instead of helping Macrostar secure them, you pumped capital into the Sampson family and had them bid against us! Deep down, you never cared about this company at all! You just threw a childish tantrum to trip up your own uncle! Is that any way to do business?"

Loyce responded coolly, "First of all, whatever the Sampson family did during the bidding process had absolutely nothing to do with me. Secondly, did you only see the Sampson family during that auction? Did you go blind to all the other companies bidding for this land? Just because I have a history with the Sampson family, you automatically pin their actions on me?"
