She smelled its aroma gently, but she didnât drink it.
After putting down the teacup, she said with a smile, âYou figured it out so soon.
Maybe youâre not that stupid after all.
â
Glaring at Lucindaâs face, for the first time, Tess looked at her carefully.
Only then did she notice how arrogant Lucinda was in her every move.
This kind of temperament wasnât easily acquired.
Moreover, both Cyrus and Dwayne were willing to protect Lucinda at all costs.
Even Benico knew her personally, and he respected her very much.
These big shots all rallied to her, and she easily spent 8.
8 billion dollars to buy the shares of the Roberts Group.
How could an orphan from a welfare house do all these things?
Fear gradually crept into Tessâ heart.
âWho the hell are you, really?â
Lucinda raised her head to look at Tess with a cruel smile.
âIâm someone you canât afford to offend.

The cold look in Lucindaâs eye sent shivers down Tessâs spine.
Amanda was also stunned.

Iâll settle accounts with you soon enough, and youâll pay me back in fullâ-including interest!â

Then she ran out of the office dejectedly.
She had to gather her bearings and investigate Lucinda first.
Only when she knew Lucindaâs background could she have the confidence to fight her to the end.
The lawyer quietly picked up the transfer contract on the table and also left.
Amanda slumped into her chair as the last vestiges of her strength disappeared.
Now that she knew that Lucindaâs status was by no means simple, she burst into helpless tears.
âI never thought that something Like this would happen⦠Even Logan probably didnât know what kind of person you were when he brought you back six years ago.
You hid it for so many years, and then you suddenly snatched the Roberts Group! This is outrageous!â
She suddenly remembered that not long ago, Lucinda had come to her house and said that she would make the Roberts family go bankrupt.
