Chapter 445: Delivering The Legal Letter

Chapter 445: Delivering The Legal Letter

In fact, that was the mindset of most people. When they saw a successful person with achievements that they couldn’t obtain, the first thing that came to mind tended to be that the successful person must have used some shortcut or tricks to achieve success. They would never accredit it to other reasons.

Therefore, while many were envious of Cheyenne and Charlotte’s ability to become the general managers of sizable companies, many were also speculating that they had resorted to sordid means to reach their positions. But none of them dared to voice their guesses out loud.

However, now that Charlotte’s biological aunt had said so herself, they reckoned that it must be true.

So many people began to cast strange gazes at Charlotte and Cheyenne.

After lashing out at Charlotte, Gretchen didn’t give her any chance to retort and immediately turned to scold Cheyenne. “Same goes for you! Just like your younger sister, everyone knows what you did to climb up and reach the position of general manager. Yet you’re still putting on airs and pretending in front of us. You think we don’t know, huh? Psht, you’re a shameless bitch too!

“Also, are you crazy about money? How dare you say that I borrowed eighty thousand from you? I’m the daughter-in-law of the Heron family, while the Carters have long declined to a third-rate family. How can I possibly borrow money from your family? What a joke! If you need money, just ask the men you hooked up with to give you some.”

Gretchen not only insulted Cheyenne but also slandered and accused her of something she didn’t do.

Lucas’s face darkened.

He definitely wouldn’t let off anyone who dared to slander and insult his wife in public!

Had Cheyenne been humiliated like this in the past, she would have probably been infuriated to the point of bursting into tears.

But after having experienced the malicious behavior of the Carters and the distasteful way the Turners behaved yesterday, Cheyenne was completely disappointed in them and no longer considered them her relatives.

At this moment, she seemed to have already expected this, even though she was enraged.

After hearing the uncouth and callous insults Gretchen hurled at her and her sister, Cheyenne remained calm and clear-headed. “My younger sister and I are both innocent and aboveboard, unlike some people who are so vile that they’re willing to do anything for a small profit!

“You smeared us without concrete proof. I won’t let this matter rest easily! Moreover, it’s a fact that you’ve been refusing to return the money you owe us. I wanted to save you from the embarrassment because you’re an elder, but now it seems that it’s not necessary!”

With that, Cheyenne raised her head to beckon at a white Passat parked nearby.

Soon, a woman in her mid-thirties clad in an elite business suit stepped out of the car and walked toward Gretchen.

After handing a document to her, she said, “Hello, Miss Turner. I’m Joan Mills from H.Y. Law Firm, and I have been entrusted by Ms. Cheyenne Carter to issue a lawyer’s letter to you regarding your default in repaying the loan for many years. If you are unable to repay the loan that you have taken from Ms. Cheyenne Carter within a week, we will take legal action and hand it over to the courts. A lawsuit will also be filed against you, and we will apply for legal enforcement actions to be taken.”

The female lawyer’s tone was flat with barely any emotion, but it caused an uproar among the crowd.

Things had actually escalated to the point that a legal letter had been issued. In that case, it seemed that it was true that Gretchen hadn’t repaid the money she owed Cheyenne!

Holding the legal letter in her hand, Gretchen almost fainted and fell backward in exasperation.

She never thought that Cheyenne would actually hire a lawyer and send her a legal letter to warn her! I’m Cheyenne Carter’s elder. How outrageous!

“What… what evidence do you have to prove that I owe you money? If you don’t have concrete proof, that makes it a false accusation, and I can countersue you!” Gretchen shouted ferociously.

Cheyenne sneered. “Surely you haven’t forgotten what happened when you borrowed money from me, have you? When you borrowed the fifty thousand from me, you wrote an IOU, and I can produce it as evidence when need be. Also, although there’s no IOU for the thirty thousand my mother lent you, there’s a bank transfer record, and we can just retrieve it when the time comes. Do you think you can get away with it just by denying it?”

Gretchen felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and she widened her eyes speechlessly.

Now, she recalled that Cheyenne had indeed made her write an IOU when she borrowed money from her back then. At the time, Gretchen was displeased because she felt that such documents weren’t necessary since they were relatives. Besides, she didn’t intend to return the money anyway. So she kept giving excuses and refused to write an IOU, saying that it was too troublesome to do so.

But Cheyenne was running her own company at the time and was extremely strict about signing all kinds of documents of proof, so Gretchen had no choice but to write an IOU reluctantly. After getting the money, she immediately forgot about the matter. I can’t believe this little bitch still has the IOU!

There was also the bank transfer record for the money Karen gave her, which indeed made it impossible for her to deny it. There was no way she could find a reasonable reason to explain that it wasn’t a loan.

Holding the lawyer’s letter in her hand, Gretchen felt like she was holding a hot potato. Her entire face was a little pale.

Lucas looked at Cheyenne, who was acting very differently from usual. She was cool and collected. He gave her a smile of approval.

This showed that Cheyenne had improved greatly, which he was happy to see.

He knew that after the incidents at the Turner residence yesterday, as well as the fact that they had driven Lucas away, Cheyenne no longer expected much from them. She had quickly collected all the evidence and also decisively found a reputable law firm to make all the preparations.

This was initially only a last-minute plan that Cheyenne came up with on a whim, and she didn’t intend to fall out with them to the point of no return. So she had merely mentioned the debt to suppress the conflict for the time being so that they could wait until Dylan’s wedding was over to settle the matter.

But Gretchen was being too overbearing. Not only did she harp on the issue, but she even slandered Charlotte and Cheyenne with such lewd and callous remarks. Cheyenne naturally couldn’t stand it and thus used her trump card.

“Also, everyone present has heard all the false accusations you’ve made against me and my sister, so I’ll have Ms. Mills send you another legal letter to pursue this!” Cheyenne said indifferently.

“Exactly! Cheyenne and I are both innocent. Why should we allow you to slander and smear us with those disgusting accusations? Gretchen Turner, you openly created rumors and insulted us. You won’t escape the law!” Charlotte stood by Cheyenne’s side and stared at Gretchen coldly as well.
