Translator: 549690339
On the way back to the Splendid Sayon neighborhood.
The diamond wedding dress, worth thirty-two million, was casually thrown onto the back seat, lonely and unattended.
Sherry Jones held her arms across her chest, puffing her cheeks in sulky displeasure.
She couldn’t understand why White Mitchell had accepted this wedding dress. The Jones family clearly had ulterior motives, and whatever threat awaited White Mitchell was still unknown.
Seeing Sherry’s unhappy expression, White Mitchell pulled the car over to the side of the road and asked with a smile, “What’s the matter, upset?”
At his words, Sherry shot White a resentful glance and blurted out, “Brother, why did you accept this wedding dress? I am sure grandma and the others mean us no good.
What will you do if there is danger because you accepted the wedding dress?”
Upon hearing this, White responded confidently, “My silly girl, nothing will happen. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up for you.
Moreover, the chances to take advantage of the Jones family are rare. They were so extravagant this time that it would be a waste not to take this opportunity.”
White Mitchell said this with a hint of mockery, just to ease Sherry’s worry.
After all, the wedding dress was already in his possession, and he hadn’t lost anything from the transaction. On the contrary, it allowed the Jones family to suffer the silent loss, why wouldn’t he be pleased?
“I really can’t deal with you.” Sherry pouted, her face full of resentment, her heart cluttered.
She knew that White was doing this for her, to enable her to wear a beautiful wedding dress.
But the fact that the dress came from the Jones family made her feel uneasy.
On the other hand, Jacob Bright, who had been waiting under the tower of Royal Group early on, rushed into the Royal Group building as soon as he received feedback from the Jones family.
“I want to report. I know who stole your diamond wedding dress…”
As there were still people who had not gotten off work, Jacob hurriedly approached them, excitedly sharing a lot.
He also took care to clear his connections and presented himself as a righteous citizen. He mentioned to them that he was from the Bright Corporation to gain Royal Group’s favor.
A diamond wedding dress?
The employees of the Royal Group were a little confused, as they did not understand what Jacob meant.
But they couldn’t make a decision and asked for their leader’s advice.
Soon, a stern-looking middle-aged man came out of the elevator and stood in front of Jacob, asking in a deep voice, “Are you Jacob Bright!?”
“Yes yes yes, hello leader, I am Jacob Bright from Bright Corporation in Sayon, I am here to…” Jacob introduced himself with a sycophantic smile on his face.
Before he could finish, the man’s expression turned icy and he said coldly, “I don’t care if you are from Bright Corporation or any other damn corporation, how dare you spread rumors in my Royal Group. I think you’re tired of living!
Guards, kick him out. From this moment on, whenever you see this man, kick him out. Never let him step into Royal Group again!”
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Seven or eight security guards on duty immediately rushed towards Jacob, which scared him out of his wits.
“No, didn’t your Royal Group issue a news announcement saying that a diamond wedding dress was lost, and that there would be a reward for providing clues? How come…” Jacob was about to cry, hastily trying to defend himself.
But the middle-aged man didn’t say a word, he just slapped Jacob Bright right in the face, “How dare you act up here!? You should look where you are, this is the Royal Group!”
I’ll say this one last time, our Royal Group has never lost a diamond wedding dress. The gown we prepared for that particular lady is already in her possession.
If you dare to stir up trouble with lies again, be careful, I’ll tear your mouth apart!”
This…???
Jacob Bright was completely dumbfounded. What do they mean they’ve never lost a diamond wedding dress? That’s not possible, it was clear as day on the TV this afternoon. How come after only a few hours the situation completely changed?
While Jacob Bright was racking his brain, security guards from the Royal Group came directly to his face, dragged and beat him until they threw him out of the Royal Group building.
Jacob Bright, with his bloody nose and swollen face, lay on the floor wailing, unable to comprehend what had happened.
He wanted to call the bridal store for clarification, but they hadn’t been answering his calls since the afternoon.
He thought about going directly to the bridal store, but when he arrived at the scene, he found that the store was no longer there. The speed of clearance left him speechless.
A ragged Jacob Bright had no choice but to return to the Jones Family house.
“What? The Royal Group said the wedding dress was never lost? They said it’s already in that VIP’s hands?” Hearing this news, Old Madam Jones froze in place, her face revealing an expression of utter befuddlement.
Since the Royal Group said so, there must be no mistake. But then what was going on with the news report they saw that afternoon?
The people of Jones Family all furrowed their brows and fell deep in thought.
After a long while, Will Jones suddenly ran in front of everyone, shouting excitedly, “I figured it out, I figured it out! It must be White Mitchell who was messing around behind the scenes!
Snowden, Jacob, did you say that this afternoon White Mitchell saw your wedding dress at the store, right?
That’s right, it must be that White Mitchell knew the dress was valuable, had malicious intentions, and secretly had someone hack our TV connection to create a fake news story.
You all know how skilled those hackers are online these days. Hacking our TV connection, isn’t that child’s play?”
This…
Everyone in the Jones Family was flabbergasted. Then, a look of frustration emerged on their faces as if they had been tricked.
Amanda spat out viciously: “Okay! I was wondering why White Mitchell was so eager to take the wedding dress!
So, everything was his scheme. He must not have been able to afford such a good wedding dress, but knew our Snowden had one, so he used such underhanded tricks to deceive us!
Must have calculated that we would let Sherry take the blame. No, probably as early as yesterday when he agreed to the bet with Snowden, he already had such a plan! It must be like this!”
After listening to Amanda’s analysis, each person in the Jones family fell into a state of righteous indignation.
They had been played by White Mitchell!
For them, this was a great humiliation!
Without any effort, White Mitchell took a wedding dress worth tens of millions from them. It was like he was cutting their flesh and drawing their blood!
As for the matter of the bridal shop, at this moment they had completely thrown it out of their minds. All they could think about was their hatred for White Mitchell.
Old Madam Jones struck the floor with her newly bought cane, saying furiously, “Call the police! Immediately call the police! I want The Patrol to arrest White Mitchell!
This is fraud, blatant fraud, a wedding dress worth tens of millions. I want White Mitchell to rot in jail!!!!”
