“Who gave it to you?” Nigel suddenly asked.
Shannon glanced briefly at Nigel and instinctively knew that he was not in the right state of mind. However, she did not question anything.
Jennifer merely shook her head without saying a word.
Dexter, on the other hand, stared at Sylvia with a gloating look in his eyes. He was looking forward to seeing what she was going to say to defend herself.
Conner was surprised, but he did not say anything.
Many female guests were staring at Jennifer's dress and necklace enviously, making the latter feel uncomfortable. She could not help but think about that indifferent man, wondering what his identity was.
“Quiet!” Sylvia was so upset that she jabbed her cane on the ground, making a crisp sound.
Everyone quieted down and dared not make a sound.
Sylvia said, “Well, even if what she's wearing is genuine, she claims that Pollerton would undergo land reclamation without any proof to support her assumptions. Her insight and attitude toward business are not good enough for her to stay in the Wilson family.”
At that moment, even Dexter fell silent.
That's true. You don't even have access to the public announcement website and you're claiming that Pollerton will undergo land reclamation? It's been seventy years since the development of the technology for land reclamation. However, land reclamations have not been carried out in many countries. Not even ten reclamation projects have been carried out in seventy years all around the world.
“This is clearly a joke! People will definitely ridicule us and say that we don't know how to do our business. They'll mock us!” Sylvia's tone was heavy.
Jennifer bit her lip and did not say a word.
Kevin, Leonard, and Linda hung their
heads and shrank into the corner once again.
