Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 233 Fake

Anna’s expression turned dark when she heard what Todd had to say. Then, she frowned and said in a low voice, “However, the designer who lent that piece of jewelry is called Kevin Carter. I met him; he was the same person as the photo you uploaded on the official webpage.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Todd finally understood. Then, he explained, “Mrs. Gardner, Kevin was indeed a young designer in Triton Studio. However, he was expelled at the end of last year because he had lent the jewelry multiple times without permission.”

As it was related to the reputation of Triton Studio, Todd stood up and continued to say with a different look, “He didn’t design the current season’s jewelry. All of our jewelry is in the vault. This jewelry is the only one brought out by me.”

Everyone was silent. If what Todd said was true, that piece of jewelry was fake.

Business and government officials from all over the world would come to Wendy’s birthday party, and the media coverage would be overwhelming. One could only imagine the scene if Wendy wore a piece of fake jewelry.

The Gardner Family’s reputation would be destroyed if others knew about this.

As Anna thought about it, she felt a chill run down her spine and was scared.

“Are you sure?” she asked with watery eyes.

Todd nodded, then said thoughtfully, “This is related to the reputation of Triton Studio. I won’t make fun of it.”

Anna finally understood the severity of the matter. Fortunately, Nicole cooperated with Triton Studio. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Okay. Thank you for telling me. The Gardner Family will investigate this matter,” Anna said solemnly.

Todd nodded too. “This matter also concerns us. Can you invite that person over today? I want to confront him.”

“Of course.” Anna nodded.

…

Queenie had been unable to eat or sleep well these past few days. When she closed her eyes, she could recall Colton’s words.

“I want to annul our engagement.”

Without the Gardner Family, the Anderson Family would be in a disaster.

Although Colton promised Queenie he would repay the Anderson Family’s debt, she had been bossing around with the Gardners’ support. If she lost the family, one could only imagine how miserable she would be.

Although the debt would be repaid, everyone would not respect Queenie without the Gardner Family. As such, the Anderson Family would not live an easy life.

Truth was, Queenie hasn’t told William and Lydia yet. She had to carry this burden by herself.

On the other hand, Lydia thought Queenie was getting tired these days because of trouble at work.

“Queenie, don’t worry. It doesn’t matter if there’s trouble at work. We have the Gardner Family’s support.”

Queenie’s lips twitched. Then, she looked at Lydia and asked softly, “Mom? Where’s Dad?”

There was no sign of William in the past few days at home.

When Lydia heard about William, her expression was filled with resentment. She clenched her hands and said, “There’s no other place he would go. He must be gambling somewhere!”

Since the Anderson Family was in debt, William was in a slump. In the eyes of outsiders, the Anderson Family was still the same as ever. Truth was, it has been at the bottom for a long time.

If it wasn’t for Queenie clinging to Colton, the Anderson Family would be long gone.

Queenie felt cold as her expression held a trace of despair. Her gaze was empty when she looked at Lydia.

Lydia was taken aback by Queenie’s expression, and she quickly asked, “Could it be that Daniella was exposed?”

Queenie shook her head as she smiled bitterly. “It’s about Colton.”

Lydia’s heart skipped a beat. She grabbed Queenie and her eyes widened as she asked nervously, “What’s wrong with President Gardner?”

“He wants to annul our engagement…”
