Chapter 924

Her eyes flicked back to Lindsey, her pupils dilating with shock.

Her mind was racing.

Could Domenic have given her this invitation? Wasn’t he risking exposing his identity? Or had he already revealed everything to her?

Kristy felt like a fool.

She had always seen herself as the star of the show, but now, she realized she was the biggest joke of all.

Still, she refused to back down.

Fixing Lindsey with a steely gaze, she snapped, “Lindsey, did you forge that invitation? Or you stole it, didn’t you?”

Lindsey chuckled at the absurdity.

She crossed her arms and tilted her head.

“Oh, sweetie, these invitations have anti-counterfeiting marks.

It’s obvious if they’re real or fake.

Plus, my name is right there, can’t you read? Personalized, remember? If I had stolen it, why would my name be on it?”

The truth was, Rachel’s invitation didn’t have a name.

As Jordan’s daughter, the invitation was just a formality.

Brady had added the name himself.

“Well…” Kristy stammered, at a loss for words.

Becker, who had been watching the exchange, stepped in and grabbed her arm.

“Stop it, Kristy,” he hissed.

“Acting like a snob here is the worst thing you can do here! She is a VIP of the Walsh Group.

We can’t afford to offend her.

Keep quiet, or you’ll have to leave!”

Despite Kristy’s efforts to win Becker’s favor recently, he was a businessman first.

Profit would always come before personal relationships.

He wasn’t going to jeopardize his connections with the Walsh Group for her sake.

“Mr.

Finch, please, don’t do this to me.

I… I’m…” Kristy stammered, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice breaking.

She couldn’t believe she was the one being scolded like this.

She felt utterly humiliated.

When Becker mentioned snobbery, wasn’t he guilty of the same?

How did Lindsey become a distinguished guest of the Walsh Group while she had to cling to this old man’s whims? Kristy fumed internally.

But she needed the man; she depended on him.

So, despite her anger, she clung to Becker’s arm and chose to stay silent, biting her Lip to keep from saying more.

Lindsey, seeing this, smirked.

“Sorry to disappoint you,” she said sweetly, then turned and confidently strode onto the cruise ship.

Kristy’s eyes burned with rage.

She swore today was not the day that Lindsey would get away with this!

Lindsey stepped onto the cruise ship and was instantly dazzled by the opulent interior.

Crystal chandeliers adorned the pathway to the banquet hall as if they were strewn about with carefree abandon.

The vibrant Lights illuminated the space as though it were midday, and the glass mirrors reflected Lindsey’s slender silhouette.

As Lindsey gazed at her reflection, she felt a sense of disorientation.

Here she was, where wealth and power converged in their most concentrated forms.

She felt overwhelmingly insignificant, acutely aware that she might never truly belong to such a privileged circle.

How would she ever manage to negotiate with the haughty CEO of Vitality Group later on?

Facing the mirrored glass, she rehearsed her words before mustering the courage to enter the banquet hall.

The hall itself was even more astonishing.

Gold, crystal, diamonds— every symbol of the world’s utmost Luxury was on display.

Even the wine glasses were crafted from gold.

Waiters in tuxedos glided through the hall, carrying fine wines.

Every detail exuded extravagance and opulence.
