However, life has dulled Fred’s edge.
No one had his back even if he fought for himself, and all he had was an elderly mother and a sisterwho was still attending university.
His family would be in tatters if anything happened to him!
Frank watched as Fred headed off into the distance and sighed exasperatedly.
The lights of the Salazar Villa in Riverton were bright and dazzling, for it was Viola’s birthday party.
The children of every important figure in Riverton were invited, and even Lane Holdings was
on the list..
However, Helen was too busy to attend and sent Cindy in her stead.
Naturally, Cindy certainly could not ask for more for such a social event.
“Woah…” Her eyes were immediately darting everywhere after she entered Turnbull Villa. It might bejust a villa, but the furnishing and renovations were a billion times better than what Lane Manor had.Even the paintings hung on the wall were all worth a fortune!
Suddenly the crowd became rowdy.
“It’s Ms. Salazar…”
“She’s a goddess…”
Seeing that, Cindy quickly squeezed her way through the crowd to see Viola coming downstairs in acrystalline gown hugging her voluptuous figure.
She certainly stood out among the crowd!
The sons of every rich and important family in Riverton were immediately flocking around her,exchanging greetings or having small talk.
It took a long while for the crowd around Viola to dwindle, and Cindy promptly saw a chance.
Wine glass in hand, she went up and greeted Viola warmly. “Ms. Salazar, I’ve been looking forward toseeing you.”
Viola turned toward Cindy. “And you are…?
???
“Cindy Zonda,” Cindy introduced herself. “I’m the cousin of Lane Holdings‘ CEO. I’ve heard that yourbeauty is a national marvel, and the rumors are certainly true.‘
“Oh, you flatter me, Ms. Zonda…”
Viola laughed out of politeness… and suddenly noticed the necklace on Cindy’s neck, with the reddiamond sparkling over it.
Viola herself had spent a fortune on the necklace, having it designed according to her specifications.
As such, it was one of a kind!
However, Cindy never noticed the look in Viola’s eyes and droned on without a care.
“I’ve admired you for a while now and have always wanted to work with your family but never had thechance-”
Before she could finish, Viola suddenly grabbed her necklace and pulled her toward herself!
“Oof!” Cindy was choked right then, and she exclaimed frantically, “What are you doing, Ms. Salazar?”
Viola had still been all friendly and nice earlier–what had gotten into her?
Nonetheless, Viola’s eyes were narrowed as she asked icily, “Where did you get this necklace/” “Y–Youcan have it if you like…” Cindy quickly said.
Smack!
Viola slapped Cindy across the face, leaving her lips cracked and bleeding.
“I’ll ask again. Where did you get this necklace?” Viola growled through her teeth.
Naturally, the crowd around them was left in shock, unsure as to what brought about Viola’s suddenmadness!
Still
Cindy was too scared to lie. “It’s my cousin’s. Her boyfriend gave it to her… I don’t know anything else!”
“Who is your cousin?!” Viola bellowed, her grip tightening further on the necklace!
