When Lucas saw this, his face instantly darkened, and he wanted to stop her. But the next second, he suddenly stopped moving.

Charlotte was not to be trifled with either. Seeing Vanessa about to hit her, she raised her hand, grabbed Vanessa’s wrist, and pushed her backward.

“That’s enough! Vanessa, do you really think that I’m a pushover? When you got bullied in school, I stood up for you every single time. Hah, now you actually want to hit me. Do you really think I’ll stand here and let you hit me just because we used to be best friends?”

Charlotte stood still and shouted overbearingly in fury, “Vanessa, how dare you say that we’re best friends? Fine. Since you’re feeling indignant, I don’t mind making things clear to you!

“Since you’ve met me today, you haven’t asked me how I’m doing now. All you did was brag to me about your boyfriend’s job, the expensive gifts he got you, and how nice he was to you!

“Moreover, you not only bragged about yourselves, but you kept mocking me and shaming my boyfriend for being poor and inferior. I tried to explain to you multiple times, but you interrupted me every single time. You didn’t even care about what I wanted to say, nor did you care to hear about what was going on with me. You just wanted to show off your superiority to me!

“If I didn’t care about the fact that we used to be best friends, I would have turned around and left after seeing what you did. Why would I bother to listen to your nonsense for such a long time?

“Yet you actually accused me of hiding it from you on purpose and watching you become a laughing stock. Haha, you kept rattling on incessantly and interrupting me when I was trying to talk to you. Did you even give me the chance to speak?

“Besides, you’re the one who chose your boyfriend yourself, and you were also the one who kept showing off to me. Now that his true colors have been revealed, you can’t accept it, so you’re blaming me for it?

“Hah, you’re really ridiculous!”

Charlotte exuded her imposing aura as the general manager of the Stardust Corporation’s Orange County branch. All her words made sense, and her retort immediately made Vanessa turn pale and rendered her speechless.

Vanessa was still full of indignation, but the truth was just as Charlotte said. Charlotte had repeatedly tried to speak to her earlier, but she had eagerly wanted to show off, so she ignored her and kept interrupting her.

If she had known Charlotte’s boyfriend was such a powerful person, she would have never treated them with such an attitude!

If she hadn’t fallen out with Charlotte and Lucas, she wouldn’t have had to compensate the Heavenly Pavilion with $2.8 million!

Think of this, Vanessa felt remorse and despair.

No, I’m not at the most hopeless stage yet. Maybe there’s a turning point!

Seemingly finding a straw to clutch at, Vanessa suddenly jumped in front of Charlotte. With her attitude greatly changed, she said with a pleading look on her face, “Charlotte, I’m wrong! I really know I’m wrong now!

“Please forgive me for being muddled this time on account that we used to be best friends! I really didn’t mean to treat you like that! Please forgive me this time. We will still be best friends forever, okay?

“Also, your boyfriend is so close to Mr. Parker that he’s even willing to give your boyfriend things worth more than five million dollars for free. Help me beg Mr. Parker, okay? I broke the vase by accident. I really didn’t mean to do it. Please ask him to drop the matter, okay?

“Charlotte, you know that my family is so poor that I can’t even afford ten thousand dollars, let alone over two million. Charlotte, you’re the only one who can help me now! Don’t leave me in the lurch!

“I… I will never look for any trouble with you again. We’ll be best friends who are closer than sisters from now on, okay?”

Vanessa’s face was full of fawning and pleading, completely different from her arrogant self just now who wanted to hit others.

Many onlookers began looking at her with contempt.

Vanessa was really thick-skinned. Previously, she had cursed at Charlotte and even said that if she became a beggar and came knocking on her door to beg for food, she wouldn’t give her a morsel of food. Just now, she had even tried to slap her out of envy and indignation. Yet she was now sucking up to her and asking to become best friends with her forever. She even begged Charlotte to help her get away without paying the compensation of 2.8 million dollars.

It was impressive how thick-skinned she was.

Charlotte pushed Vanessa away expressionlessly and said coldly, “It’s already too late. You’ve just said it yourself that we’re no longer friends! From now on, there will be nothing between us!”

Hearing what Charlotte said, Vanessa immediately froze on the spot.

She didn’t expect that Charlotte, someone she had taken advantage of for years, would turn her down without mercy!

If Charlotte didn’t help her, what… was she supposed to do?

She would never be able to afford the compensation of 2.8 million dollars!

Although Brian’s family would probably be able to afford it, she was the one who had broken the vase at the end of the day. The Kleins definitely wouldn’t let her off, and they would definitely make her pay them back!

When the time came, she probably wouldn’t be able to pay them back even if she was sold to them as a slave and slogged her guts out for the rest of her life.

At the thought of this miserable situation, Vanessa felt cold all over. She was terrified and in utter despair.

But she only had herself to blame for this, so no one took any sympathy on her.

“Mr… Mr. Parker…” At this moment, the elevator doors opened with a ding, and a middle-aged man with waxed hair hurriedly ran out toward Kenneth.

“Mr. Parker, I… I’m this bastard Brian Klein’s uncle. My name is Leon Mason. I just… just found out that my incompetent nephew caused trouble here. I’m sorry! I’m really sorry! Please forgive me!”

Leon was likely in a great hurry when he ran over because he was still panting heavily, and his face was covered in glistening drops of sweat.

Kenneth probably knew him too because he merely glanced at him and said indifferently, “In that case, you should be clear about what kind of trouble your nephew caused, right?”

Leon nodded profusely. “Yes, I know! This is all my nephew’s fault!”

“Since you’re aware of it, you should know how to handle it, right?” Kenneth said calmly. There was no happiness nor anger in his tone, but it was full of oppression..
