Under the Heiress' Facade



Mabel was always quick to point fingers. "Mr. Smith, you arrived just in time. The Everetts are trying to stir up trouble..."

Before she could finish, Theo nodded at Hera. "My apologies, Ms. Youngworth."

It was Hera's first time meeting Theo, and she didn't know his intentions.

Mabel felt a surge of joy at this. It was expected of Theo who managed to launch XS Corporation within a year. Not only was he good at handling matters, but he was very efficient!NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

It doesn't matter if Hera was Raven, Vulcan, or S. Theo was the one in charge at the XS Corporation's event! As long as he had them kicked out, the match would be over, and they didn't have to apologize.

With a wave of his hand, Theo's bodyguards stepped forward, seizing Mabel and the other two, preparing to escort them out.

Mabel was shocked and protested, "Mr. Smith, there must be some mistake. It's her who..."

"Mrs. Atkins, your behavior has led me to doubt the capabilities of the Atkins Corporation. I believe we need to reconsider our outsourcing plan," Theo interrupted. "I'm sorry, but we have important guests here and you aren't allowed to stay any longer."

He was so refined despite kicking someone out.

Mabel was stunned beyond words at this.

Just then, Noah, the president of Atkins Corporation, finally pushed his way through the crowd and slapped Mabel. "You stupid woman!"

He then turned with an apologetic smile. "Mr. Smith, Mr. Everett, Mr. Gideon, I apologize for my wife's offensive words. I promise I'll keep a close eye on her from now on. Please forgive us. I'll have them leave so they won't disturb you further."

They had attended XS Corporation's third-anniversary event hoping to continue their partnerships with XS Corporation and to negotiate for their new chips. However, Mabel had ruined everything, costing them not only their plans but also a business opportunity!

Noah turned and scolded Mabel, "Hurry up and leave!"

She was still reeling from the slap as the bodyguards dragged her away.

"Wait." Bernard reminded coldly, "She hasn't apologized yet."

The bodyguards forced Mabel on the ground. "Apologize!"

Mabel had never been more humiliated, especially in front of the other influential people. Her face was practically pressed against the floor! She was basically asking to be publicly scorned.

Since Noah demanded an apology, she had no choice but to comply. "I'm sorry..."

Her voice was barely a whisper.

"What did you say?" Gino asked loudly.

Mabel was furious and regretted not slapping the obnoxious boy harder earlier. She forced out, "I'm sorry!"

He nodded and asked, "And what exactly did you do wrong?"

Mabel gritted her teeth. "Silas did cheat and failed to win anything, so you didn't slander us!"

Gino looked smug after having his innocence proven. But remembering people were still watching, he adopted a dignified air.

So, he nodded. "I'm glad you

admitted your mistake. Do write an apology letter when you get back and

reake a photo to share it with the

rest of us."

Mabel was red with anger. Who did this kid think he was? But she still had to comply despite her anger. After she apologized, the

bodyguards finally dragged her out.
