Chapter 284: Chapter 284

Chapter 284 Lauryn suddenly lifted her head, with tear stains still on her face. She looked sad.

Lennon confessed his feelings for Mariela in front of so many people!

Mariela was stunned.

She was nervous when those whispers reached her ears.

She was afraid that Lennon would defend Lauryn and stand against her as they said.

At this moment. Mariela felt incredibly grounded.

The warmth spread through her palm as Lennon held her hand with his big hand, giving her a comforting strength.

Mariela gradually calmed down.

Bella ‘couldn’t remain calm anymore.

What Lennon said in front of everyone was like a slap in her face.

Bella spoke in a trembling voice, “Lenny, don’t...”

“Ms. Logan, the surveillance footage is here,” the waiter interrupted Bella and handed the USB drive to Mariela.

Everyone looked at the USB drive in the waiter’s hand, eagerly anticipating the images inside.

Menu Mariela reached out and took the USB drive, saying to everyone, “Please follow me to the screening room on the fifth floor. The truth is about to be revealed.”

Lauryn’s palms were sweating with nervousness.

She gritted her teeth and forced herself to say calmly, “Marie, I have apologized to you. Why can’t you let it go?”

“Was your apology sincere?” Mariela glanced at her coldly, “I don’t accept it.”

Lauryn kept speaking, “You should consider the guests. The banquet hall is big, and so many people are there. Can the screening room accommodate so many people?”

Mariela smirked and said, “Sorry, Ms. Schneider, the screening room upstairs can accommodate a thousand people, so you don’t need to worry.”

Lauryn’s face stiffened, and she furrowed her brow, pondering the next excuse.

Fiona looked at Lauryn with interest and crossed her arms. “Someone is feeling guilty and scared, right?”

Lauryn gritted her teeth.“I’m not. I don’t want to waste everyone’s time. It’s just a misunderstanding, so why make a big fuss about it?”

Fiona laughed heartily, “I didn’t specifically mention you being guilty, Ms. Schneider. You took it personally and looked so anxious.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, if you are interested, please come to the fifth floor with me,” Mariela said calmly.

Bella spoke again, “Look at you. You don’t look like a lady of a wealthy family at all. Lauryn accidentally dirtied your dress, yet you can’t let it go. I’ll compensate you for the dress on behalf of Lauryn. We’re family. There’s no need to make a big fuss by going to the screening room.”

Fiona rolled her eyes at Bella and muttered to herself, “The old bitch always bullies Mariela. She didn’t allow Mariela to call her grandmother at the family banquet, and now she wants to make peace because they are family. Are you kidding me?”
