Chapter 1315 Mysterious Family Heirloom
Pinning his deep gaze on the woman in front of him, Kyle wondered what kind of woman she was.
She looked casual and carefree but was at the same time mischievous and dominant, unlike the socialites and ladies from rich families. Besides, she was a little rebellious as compared to ordinary girls. In short, Kyle felt that she was different.
On the other hand, Juan did not think much about it. He was more concerned about the purpose of meeting up with Sally. Crossing his arms once again, he asked, “Since you successfully made use of Seet Group in dealing with Andrew, shouldn’t you apologize and express your gratitude toward us?”
Sally smiled and poured another cup of tea for herself. She took a sip and turned to look at Juan. “Apologize? I don’t think I have to do so! Expressing my gratitude? I think the only person I need to thank is myself!”
“Why don’t you have to do so?” Juan glared daggers at her.
“The reason why Andrew dared to act unscrupulously and be so lawless was only because Seet Group was backing him up. Strictly speaking, Seet Group is an accomplice to his crimes! Why do I, a person who he failed to successfully persecute, need to apologize and express my gratitude toward his accomplice? It doesn’t make sense!”
Juan disagreed, “Stop talking nonsense! Seet Group has never backed him up! It was merely his trick to deceive others! Those idiots were all blinded by his bluffs. How can we be blamed for this?”
“Even if you guys didn’t back him up, the company did play the role of accomplice! In this case, you guys should be responsible for it!”
“Stop being unreasonable! He made use of Seet Group’s reputation. Technically, his actions caused the loss of our credibility! We’re the victims as well!”
“Victims? Are you sure you guys aren’t responsible for this in any way?”
Kyle knitted his brows and chimed in, “Juan, she has a point. In the future, we have to be wary of people like Andrew.”
Juan looked at Kyle in surprise. He did not expect him to speak up for Sally.
Sally was, on the other hand, satisfied with Kyle’s attitude. She looked at Juan smugly and said, “That’s more like it! Mr. Kyle is more sensible!”
Juan was speechless.
D*mn! Does she mean that I’m not sensible? This woman is argumentative and illogical!
“Fine, let’s not argue about it for now. I’ve heard that Andrew has been hard on you because of two reasons. First, he was smitten by your beauty. Second, he’s after your family heirloom. Of course, we’re not interested in your beauty. However, I’m curious about your family heirloom. What is it?”
Although Juan said that he was not interested in her beauty, he could not stop himself from sizing up her figure.
The moment Juan brought up the family heirloom, Sally’s expression immediately tensed up, and her tone became wary at once. “What family heirloom? I don’t have any.”
“You don’t?”
Catherine clearly said that Andrew kept finding fault with Sally because of her precious family heirloom. There’s no way she doesn’t have any. Besides, her devilish expression obviously shows that she’s lying! What a great actress and liar!
“Mr. Juan, you don’t have to look at me like that. How is it possible for me to own a family heirloom? I don’t even have a family since I’m an orphan. Who’s supposed to give me a family heirloom?”
Kyle narrowed his eyes and mulled over her words. Since it’s a family heirloom, for sure she won’t show it to outsiders so easily. Besides, this is the first time we’ve met. Of course, she will have her guard up against us.
“Since you’ve said so, we’ll be leaving now. Juan, it’s getting late. Let’s go.”
Once Sally heard that they were leaving, she immediately stood up. “That’s right, it’s late now. I need to go back as well. Bye!” With that, she threw them a smile and left.
