Chapter 327: Chapter 327

Everyone became quiet.

They began to search for the direction of the ringing phone, and then one by one, their gazes fell onKeira…

Christina was also stunned.

They saw Keira slowly take out her phone.

Christina said, “Your phone call is quite timely. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think you were N.”

She sneered, just as Keira leisurely pressed the answer button and turned on the speakerphone.“Hello.”

The same voice simultaneously came from Christina’s phone. “Hello.”

Christina was bewildered. She stood frozen on the spot, looking at Keira in shock. She then lookedincredulously at her own phone. “You, you…”

Those two words also came from Keira’s phone…

So, everyone began to look at her.

It was Victoria who first snapped back to reality. “You are N?!”

Keira hung up and nodded.

Mary snickered. “Of course, it’s Keera’s code name. She simply didn’t want to draw too much attention,so she just stayed low-key. Who would have thought you’d accuse someone of suppressing their ownemployees right from the start? Come on, Christina, will you please explain to me how Keerasuppresses

herself?”

Christina was dumbfounded.

She stood there stiff as a board, trembling with rage.

Keira then said indifferently, “This way of poaching is considered malicious competition, right? TheOlsen Group must give me an explanation today!”

Christina was shocked, looking toward Victoria for

help.

Victoria’s expression didn’t change, but she stepped forward and said, “Miss South, there seems to bea misunderstanding here. My sister isn’t an employee of the Olsen Group, so there’s no issue with theOlsen Group stealing employees. I guess she just saw that N’s name wasn’t on the project proposal, soshe came to voice her concerns…”

21.

Her words completely absolved Christina of responsibility.

Christina immediately nodded. “Exactly, that’s it! I just thought it was strange that N was being treatedthis way, so I misunderstood.”

Victoria then sighed. “Sister, you start arguing without understanding the situation. You really mustchange this temperament of yours, otherwise, you’re going to

suffer.”

Christina hastily nodded.

After that, the two turned to leave.

“Stop.”

Mary suddenly said.

The two immediately looked toward her.

Mary sneered. “When you do something wrong, don you know to apologize?”

Christina immediately furrowed her brow.

Victoria glanced at her and gave her a look.

Making a scene today would be embarrassing, and Christina wouldn’t be able to explain it to the Olsen.

Group.

Thinking about that, even though she was very unwilling, she still said in a low voice, “Miss South, I’m

sorry.”

Keira said, “What was that? I can’t hear you.”

Christina was shocked.

She puffed up with anger, resembling a blowfish, and shouted loudly, “I said, I’m sorry!”

Keira was satisfied. “Well, don’t do it again next time.”

Christina was speechless.

She took another deep breath, suppressing the fury in her chest.

The people nearby saw this and immediately flock Keira’s side, their attitudes completely changed. “MSouth, did you develop this project yourself? I had no idea you were so capable!”

“Yeah, right, you’re so modest!”

Someone, noting Keira’s beauty, couldn’t help but tease and ask, “Miss South, you’re so young andaccomplished. Have you gotten married yet?”

That question made the informed people present

somewhat stunned.

Then everyone awkwardly chuckled.

The person who asked the question seemed to realize something was amiss and immediately lookedaround hesitantly.

Seeing this, Christina felt like she was finally about to turn the tables. She immediately laughed andsaid, “You’re really asking that question at the wrong time! Miss South hasn’t only gotten married, butshe also just got divorced! It’s because of this project-her husband thought he’d be saddled with apenalty fee, so

he abandoned her…”

As she spoke, Christina laughed again. “Miss Sout speaking of which, you should pay more attentionyour family. If you’re focused solely on scientific research, your husband will run off with someone el

won’t he?”

The single men nearby suddenly lit up.

Divorced? Didn’t that mean they still have a chance?

Mary laughed scornfully in response. “Who cares

nhout that irraananaihla saumhan? Rottor that he rat

off! That way he won’t get a penny of our Keera’s money! And with Keera’s charm, she’s already got anew boyfriend!”

As soon as those words came out, Christina looked toward Lewis in the corner. “Miss South, yourboyfriend isn’t him, is he? A gigolo?”

Mary immediately raised her chin, “Isn’t a gigolo a successful woman’s standard accessory? That justshows our Keera is charming!”

Christina laughed again. “Right, charming… She’s only able to pretend to be a rich lady in front ofthese college students.”

She displayed a look of contempt. “But I think onger alliances are better, right? Otherwise, if one sdominant, the other side will have a hard time. example, Victoria will be marrying into the Hort family…Miss South, what’s your boyfriend’s background? Surely you didn’t really pick a gigolo no background,did you?!”

Keira didn’t know what to say.

She stroked her chin, how should she respond to th

Just as she was nondering a voice came from the

entrance, and everyone turned their heads to see Ellis and Ken walking in side by side, laughing andtalking

amicably.

Ken was asking, “I heard that your family had a

marriage arrangement with the Horton family. Are you planning a marriage alliance?”

Hearing this, Ellis paused.

Keera and Keira are twins, which meant Keira was also his uncle’s daughter.

So, actually…

Ellis frowned. “The two families have already been joined by a marriage…”

Even though Keira had passed away, she was still

cousin!

Thinking of Keira, Ellis couldn’t help but sigh inward

Compared to Keera’s docile demeanor, he actually preferred Keira. He had been captivated by hergraceful charms from the start; if only she were still alive, wouldn’t that be wonderful?

As Ellis thought about this, he lifted his head to look toward the banquet hall.

(

There, Lewis, even sitting unassumingly, was the first

person he spotted in the crowd!

There was no helping it!

Years-long arch-rival!

Ellis was momentarily stunned, convinced he must be seeing things!

Why would he be here?!

Upon hearing that the Olsen family and Horton family were already allied through marriage, everyone’sfirst reaction was to look at Victoria.

Christina couldn’t help but ask, “Victoria, was the matter already decided? Why didn’t you tell me ”

Victoria was also in a daze.

She hadn’t heard about it either!

She looked at Ellis but saw him excuse himself to

and then stride toward the gigolo that Keera had brought over…
