“Shut up!” Cortez pointed directly at Charlotte and cursed, “Stop causing trouble!”
“Someone come! Immediately throw this troublemaker out!”
“No, call the police and have her arrested. I want her to pay for her words and actions!”
However…
Clark’s cold gaze stared directly at Cortez, and with a slap, he hit his face. “Let her speak! What? Are you feeling guilty?”
Cortez was frightened by Clark and dared not speak, covering his face and lowering his head.
Sariah went crazy, like a cornered cat. “Charlotte, what the hell is wrong with you? Are you crazy? Do you have any evidence to support this plan being yours?”
“This is my hard work!”
“Are you blind? My signature is on it! Sariah! Did you see it?”
“By saying this, you are infringing upon my reputation. Apologize to me immediately, otherwise the police won’t be so accommodating.”
She appeared confident and imposing.
Mark also stood up suddenly and said in a deep voice, “I demand that you apologize!”
“Or else…”
“We will sue you for defamation and let you spend your next life in jail!”
“Yes, yes, what evidence do you have to claim this proposal as yours?”
“I’ve never seen such a shameless woman…”
“You can’t get away with this now!”
“Disgusting…”
The others all looked down upon Charlotte with contempt and disdain.
Witnessing this, Mark curled his mouth in a smile. He took the opportunity to speak up, “Mr. Wilson, she’s just jealous that my girlfriend got this project. Please don’t mind her.”
“I’m Mark Edwards from the Edwards family…”
“Shut up!” Clark slapped Mark’s face, causing him to bleed. “You, a successor of the Edwards family, have no right to tell me what to do.”
His cold and stern gaze turned towards Sariah. “I’ll give you a chance to say whose plan this is.”
“It’s… it’s mine!” Sariah gritted her teeth and confessed.
Seeing her demeanor, Clark already had a grasp of the situation.
He looked kindly at Charlotte and said, “Miss Pittman, I will investigate this matter and clear your names.”
“Since you claim that the proposal is yours… alright, tell us the contents of the proposal. We can easily distinguish the truth.”
Sariah’s face turned pale.
She had no idea what was written in the proposal. She had only glanced at it roughly earlier…
“You go first!” Clark stared at Sariah, his tone authoritative.
“I… I…” Sariah struggled, but couldn’t come up with anything.
Charlotte stood tall and confident.
“This proposal is my masterpiece, and I can recite it by heart.”
After that, she confidently and carefully pointed out all the details of the plan, speaking word by word.
The entire room fell into silence!
Now, everything was revealed!
Those who had mocked Charlotte earlier now had pale faces!
Clark’s face filled with anger as he slammed the table. His imposing gaze swept across Cortez, Mark, and Sariah.
“You three owe me an explanation!”
“What audacity!”
