Chapter 509
Ivanna nodded in agreement. “It’s a pity. How did Harmony get the plastic surgery done? We didn’t see her, but she must have been quite similar to you. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have fooled so many people.” “Nothing fake can beat the authentic.
It all depends on whether some people have a conscience. Megan is truly talented. She was able to articulate substantial differences. And she was right. The eyes are the windows to the soul, and that’s something Harmony can’t learn.” I looked at Ivanna.
“Harmony’s greed ruined her.” “It’s all because these people have spoiled her too much. Tens of thousands of dollars are one thing, but didn’t you hear it? She even drove away
with a car!” Ivanna looked at me, somewhat incredulously. “I don’t understand it. How deep was their relationship? She really had the nerve, Anyway, your name seems quite effective, and it can be used as money.” “Hehe… that was for Atlas.” I sneered.
“You really thought it was for me?” “Did Atlas mean that it was someone associated with Jared earlier?” Ivanna asked me.
“It’s not surprising if Trinity is colluding with Stella. He must have his people, and that wouldn’t be strange at all.” I recalled the day I saw Jared and Trinity at the Beringer family’s residence. However, I hadn’t told Ivanna about that.
Stella couldn’t possibly be owas of my relationship with the Beringer family, yet she was becoming more I relentless.
It seemed that Stella was truly asking for trouble.
[returned to the Beringer family’s residence quite early. After all, Ava was there, and I didn’t want to burden Grandma Rose too much.
As soon as I arrived, Grandma Rose and Ava had just woken up from their nap.
Seeing me back, Grandma Rose asked, “Why are you back so early?” I smiled and sat next to her. “Grandma, are you complaining that I’m back early? Well, I finished my work and came back. I was worried that Ava might trouble you.”
“Well, she’s very well-behaved. This little girl, let me tell you, is very clever.
She understands everything immediately” Grandma Rose’s affection for Ava was evident.
Ava ran over and leaned against me.
“Mommy, I had a video call with Uncle Arnold. He said he’d come back during the New Years. Mommy, when is that?” I knew that Arnold must have remembered that today was Sunday and that Ava would be here.
“It’s coming soon. Time flies, right?” “Oh.” She nodded. “Can it be faster than an arrow? That would be great.” Both Grandma and I laughed at her
Grandma Rose suddenly asked me, “By the way, are you going tothe networking event on Friday?” “Yes, Atlas said we should go together, but it doesn’t really mean much to me.
I’m not very fond of socializing,” I said sincerely.
Grandma Rose didn’t say anything. I would have forgotten if she hadn’t reminded me. It was Arthur’s business networking event, scheduled for this Friday.
“Some socializing is necessary. You
can’t do business without
connections.” Grandma Rose
advised me. “Atlas is a business
genius. He excels beyond his father. It’s a pity…”
She let out a sigh.
“Grandma, you must be quite familiar) with the Pierce family, right?” [ asked calmly. I wanted to hear various versions of the story about the Pierce family.
“Well, the Beringer family came into contact with the Pierce family due to a friendship with Louis. But before that, I already knew David Pierce, who was Atlas’s grandpa. This guy was smart, and with his family they migrated to Nocturnia long ago. He had a brother and a sister.” Grandma Rose began to tell me about the Pierce family while Ava was watching the fish in the giant fish tank with a young worker nearby.
“However, only David prospered because he married a good wife, Atlas’s
grandmother, named Nancy Cross. She came from an illustrious family.” It seemed that Grandma Rose indeed knew quite a bit about the Pierce family.
