Chapter 52
People started laughing upon hearing that.
This made both Eunice and Marie embarrassed and feel humiliated.
Gritting her teeth, Marie said with an innocent face, “Sorry, we didn’t know. Miss Amanda was the one
who told us to sit here.”
Hearing this, Mr Robert was confused. He could see from Marie’s face that she wasn’t lying thus he looked around to see whether he would see the Flores.
“I am sorry but I don’t know any, Miss Amanda. Also, I can’t see the Flores Corp representative,” he said in a serious tone, but less cold than before.
Elsa stood up as she couldn’t let Amanda’s plans go to waste.
“Mr Robert, I am seated behind here.” Her voice sounded around the room making everyone turn in h
direction.
“Miss Flores, what are you doing there? Didn’t I notify you that we had arranged the best seat for you?” Mr Robert asked as he hurriedly walked towards her.
Deep down, he was afraid that Elsa might blame him for what happened and cause his family business tc
go down the drain.
“Yes, I do remember that you did say that. Actually, my sister and my best friend accompanied me today as I told you I would be having company. When we walked in, we started walking directly toward: the front seats but sadly we were stopped,” Elsa explained with a calm voice but no emotion could be
seen in her eyes or even face.
“What do you mean that you have been stopped? Who dares to humiliate you and even go against m orders?” Mr Robert asked coldly, making everyone avert their gazes although they were not at fault.
Ingrid, on the other hand, had eyes full of hatred when she looked at Elsa. When she did what she did, she had expected that Elsa and her group would make a big fuss out of it. She wanted to watch the two families argue in front of people making fools of themselves but she never thought that such a silly involvement made her be caught up in the mess.

Mr Robert was no fool, he figured things out when he looked at Eunice and saw her seat at the chain
he had prepared for the three
“Miss Scott Please get out of the seat. I have specifically arranged the seats for the Flores family while you and your sister–in–law were supposed to have seat numbers fifty–nine and sixty
respectively,” he said coldly without caring about the damage he was causing in public.
“How can you do this, Mr Robert? It wasn’t our fault that they opted to sit at the back. We haven’t spoken to them since we arrived.” Marie said with a wronged look on her face,
Seeing that Mr Robert was getting confused and that he might be led astray by Marie’s words, Amand
lifted her head from her phone and looked at the middle–aged man in front of them.
*Sir, you are mistaken. It wasn’t Miss Scott who said that. Ingrid was the one who told us that the seats were meant for the Scotts and that Eunice had been generous enough to let us sit in them so that we could see how it felt to be in the limelight,” Rose said with an innocent and pitiful smile on her face making both Marie and Eunice let out a sigh of relief as they never expected Rose to help
them in time they needed help.
It had taken her a while and some minutes watching what was going on to realize what Amanda had planned when she readily agreed to sit at the back. There was no way she was going to be left behind. in taking part in making fun of Eunice and her friends.
Although Rose said it wasn’t Miss Scott’s fault, Mr Robert knew that Ingrid was Eunice’s lackey thus she never did anything without Eunice’s orders. His eyes turned gloomy as he hated those who alway: used despicable ways and others to get what they wanted.
Ingrid was shocked when she heard her name and only hoped that Mr Robert wouldn’t be mad at her.
Some people who had seen the world felt chills on their backs as they watched Rose who was still acting pitiful. From what she had said, even though it seemed she was helping Eunice, she was
actually adding fuel to the fire.
This made people wonder how such a young girl could come up with such methods to deal with her
enemies.
“Mr Robert, do you now believe when we say that we are innocent?” Eunice said with a triumphant smile on her face making Amanda roll her eyes as she knew to people Eunice was just a clown and a fool.
“Miss, don’t think I don’t know that Ingrid is always under you. She has always done things after you

“Mr Robert, do you now belleve when we say that we are innocent?” Eunice said with a triumphant smile on her face making Amanda roll her eyes as she knew to people Eunice was just a clown and a fool.
“Miss, don’t think I don’t know that Ingrid is always under you. She has always done things after you tell her to do so. Although she was the one who spoke, I am sure that you told her to as you always use her to do your despicable stuff. Please, can you get out of the seat so that we can start the event?” Mr Robert said annoyedly.
To him, he was already showing the Scotts‘ face by not throwing Eunice out. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“What’s the meaning of this, Mr Robert? If my brother was here, would you have arranged those seats for him? He sent me here to represent him thus I should sit on the seat he should sit on.” Eunice said angrily, making Mr Robert gaze at her coldly.
“I am sorry. Miss Scott, if I sound rude but you do know the rules of the event. If your business is rising, you get the best seats but if the stocks are falling and losing money, you sit at the back. Actually, if it weren’t for the respect I have for your brother, your family wouldn’t have gotten those seats. You should be sitting at the last and worst seats since your family’s company has lost. billions in just a day making it the company that has lost the most money during this period. So please, don’t make this seem harder than it already is,” Mr Robert said in a clear yet stern tone but his eyes were cold as they glanced at Eunice.
“Pfft. You think that we will declare bankruptcy? In your dreams. I will prove to you that we still have money and are the richest family in the city during the auction,” Eunice said arrogantly, before standing up and walking to her previous seat.
