Cornella said, “Don’t sweat it, I’m not the type to fall for tricks easily You and Abby can go check out some

renovation companies, and I’ll get back to you tonight.” -Zack expressed his worry. “No way, I can’t have you take

that risk. Abby and I can borrow some more money from our parents for the renovation

Cornelia replied, “Your parents need to save some too. Stop borrowing from them already. Even if I can’t squeeze a

dime out of Clair, I still got the dough Jeremy stashed away for me. I can use that for now and pay him back later”

Zack said, “Now that we know Jeremy is Marcus and he’s loaded, we can’t just spend his money like it grows on

trees. I don’t want you to feel awkward in front of him later.” Cornelia responded, “Relax, I got this” Cornelia hadn’t

thought about spending Jeremy’s money

After hanging up, she took out her personal cell and was about to ask Natalia for Clair’s contac, but then figured

Natalia’s phone might have been confiscated if she messaged Natalia, it could cause her trouble, so she dropped

the idea.

She then thought for a while and dialed Cameron’s number, but it was busy after several attempts.

Oh right. The Reese Group’s stock price hit a slump right from the get–go, his family must be in a real pickle right

now.

Cameron being the president in name, it was only natural for his phone to be blowing up. With the Reese family in

chaos, they probably wouldn’t have time to bother with Natalia

Cornelia immediately dialed Natalia’s cell, and it was Clair who answered, “Ms. Stewart, how many times have I told

you not to disturb my daughter? Why are you such a pain in the ass?”

Clair having Natalia’s phone was both unexpected and expected for Cornelia, “Great, I was looking for you, not your

daughter.”

Clair said, “You’re here to gloat about winning with Marcus‘ help, aren’t you?”

Cornelia replied. “I don’t have time for that petty stuff. I’m here for compensation. My friends‘ studio was wrecked

by your people, causing a loss of less than $20,000. Add in the loss of income and the cost of renovation, I’ll give

you a discount, a total of $20,000”

Knowing that Cornelia had no evidence, Clair threatened, “Twenty grand is nothing but pocket change for me, but

it’s a fortune for the likes of you. You think I’m just going to hand it over? Do I look like a charity to you?”

Cornelia chuckled, “Wearing a fake necklace, is that a sign of The Reese Group’s downfall? You remember that

post, don’t you?”

Clair asked, “Was that post your doing?”

It was that post that revealed her wearing fake jewelry, causing her great embarrassment, which led to Granger

forbidding her to go out.

So it was all Cornelia’s doing! Why didn’t she get rid of her sooner!

Cornelia said, “Mrs. Reese, you have to understand, I didn’t stir up trouble. I just reported what happened last night.

And I will report the truth about the vandalism, I may not have solid evidence, but I can count on public opinion.”

With Marcus‘ help, Cornelia indeed could use public opinion to her advantage. The Reese family was in a tight spot

and couldn’t afford any more hits.

Clair understood this, her voice almost hoarse from fear, “You cunning witch, don’t count your chickens before they

hatch. Just because Marcus is protecting you now, it doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want. Can he do it for

a lifetime? You can keep him interested with your youth and charm for now, but can you do it forever? Knowing he

already has a wife, you still went to his bed, you’re that eager to be his bedmate, huh?”
