Chapter 224 - 227: Watching Zara Lucas Being Arrogant
The surrounding socialites heard Joan Wellington’s words and finally understood her identity.
No wonder she could order these waiters to drive people away.
Turns out, she was the infamous and capricious young Miss Wellington from the Wellington family.
“You’re lying, I’m not an illegitimate daughter! I am Miss Lucas, and my Daddy is Brandon Lucas!”
“So what if it’s Brandon Lucas? When your dad meets my brother, he still has to bow and greet him. Who are you to be so arrogant here! You guys – drag her out for me. From now on, she is not allowed at any Wellington family banquets!”
“Yes, Miss.” Several waiters approached to grab her.
Zara Lowe was starting to panic at this point.
Seeing that Brandon Lucas’ name wasn’t enough to sway the other side, she quickly brought up Aidan Lucas.
“You… don’t come any closer, no one is allowed to touch me!” She struggled, pushing away two of the approaching waiters.
“If you humiliate me now, you’re humiliating the Lucas family! Even if you know Mr. Lucas, you’re slapping the face of the Lucas family by slapping mine!
I warn you, if anyone dares touch me, be careful that Mr. Lucas doesn’t grab you and throw you all into the black market!”
Ever since Michelle Carter had been thrown into the black market, Zara Lowe had heard about Mr. Lucas’s methods.
She wanted to show off her power, using Michelle Carter’s ordeal to intimidate these people.
The waiters who originally wanted to grab Zara Lowe were indeed scared off by her words.
Mr. Lucas’s reputation was renowned, especially when it came to the black market.
It was a place hidden underground, filled with countless wealth and opportunities.
At the same time, it was the dirtiest and most terrifying place, where no one wanted to be treated as goods and thrown into the black market.
Seeing the waiters frightened away, Zara Lowe immediately stood up in triumph.
Joan Wellington couldn’t believe her people were scared off just by a few words from Zara Lowe and she became furious.
Just when she was about to force these people to throw Zara Lowe out, a voice suddenly came from behind her.
“Miss Wellington, there’s no need to argue with someone like this.” Lily Gray walked out of the crowd and gently grabbed Joan Wellington’s wrist.
Joan Wellington looked at Lily Gray, frowning.
Wasn’t she just dancing the opening dance with her brother? How did she appear at the entrance of the banquet hall?
Lily Gray’s eyes held a faint smile, she gave Joan Wellington a reassuring look. Turning her head to look at Zara Lowe, the smile in her eyes turned into sarcasm.
“Zara Lowe… I didn’t expect to see you here. Long time no see.”
Zara Lowe puffed out her chest when she saw Lily Gray, “Hmph, 1 thought the Wellington family had something special! 1 almost forgot, you guys even want my brother’s old shoes, and you’re still acting so arrogant in front of me!”
After saying that, Zara Lowe pointed at Lily Gray and shouted loudly, “Everyone, come and see! This is the famous CEO of the Gray Group, Lily Gray… The shameless Miss Gray who was dumped for cheating within her marriage! By being with this kind of woman, Mr. Wellington isn’t afraid the top of his head will turn green!”
“Don’t talk nonsense, my brother and her…”
Joan Wellington couldn’t help but argue, but no matter how domineering she usually was, her voice couldn’t override Zara Lowe’s shrewish nature.
Her voice was drowned out by Zara Lowe’s loud yelling. As more and more people gathered, the triumph in Zara Lowe’s eyes grew stronger and stronger.
Hmph, the more people there were, the less the Wellington family could do anything about her!
Zara Lowe continued to yell, and because of the recent notoriety of the Gray Group and Lily Gray, many of the people who gathered believed Zara Lowe’s words, thinking that it was Lily Gray bullying others again.
“All, look, that’s the Gray Group heiress Lily Gray… She just danced the opening dance with Mr. Wellington. It seems she’s not a simple character.”
“Of course she’s not simple. 1 heard that she hooked up with Mr. Lucas not long ago, and so soon she has turned her attention… Tsk tsk, it seems Miss Lucas is right, she really is a shameless woman!”
Hearing the whispers of the crowd, Zara Lowe became more and more elated as she continued to scold.
Lily Gray, however, was not angry. She stood with her arms crossed next to Joan Wellington, watching Zara Lowe’s arrogance.
In the midst of the chaos, suddenly, a serious shout rang out: “Police investigation! No one is allowed to move!”
