Read Chapter 1408 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
It was Julie who spoke up with a smile.
“That’s right. It was Mrs. Levine who kept insisting and accusing Mr. Sloan of harassing someone else. Everyone knows that Mr. Sloan is deeply in love with Nicole. When has there been anyone other than Nicole in his eyes? If Mrs. Levine’s words cause other people to think that Nicole is together with a hoodlum and word got out, the Stanton family would not be able to show their face anymore.”
Mrs. Carter looked at Claire with an extremely unpleasant expression.
“How could you do that?”
Nicole wanted to deny it, but because of the man’s and Nicole’s identity, if she denied it, she might not be able to get out of the situation.
She pursed her lips. “It’s a misunderstanding. Maybe I saw it wrong…”
“Whether or not you saw it wrongly, we’ll know as soon as we watch the footage. Mrs. Levine was filled with righteous indignation earlier. It didn’t seem like you might have been mistaken.”
Nicole spoke coolly, her face sunken as she looked at Claire.
Claire averted her eyes, and Mrs. Carter finally understood.
This was not a misunderstanding.
Claire was clearly trying to use something to make a fuss.
Julie echoed from the side.
“That’s right, we’ll find out the truth after watching the footage. There’s no point in bickering here. It’ll only be a waste of time and make people feel like they’re watching a joke.”
Claire’ s eyes started to truly panic, and she looked at Mrs. Carter.
Mrs. Carter looked at Claire, extremely exasperated.
She had no choice but to go up to Nicole with a smile.
“ She was wrong, Nicole. There’s no need to watch the footage. It won’t be good to make a mess on a day like today.”
Then, she looked at Claire.
“Apologize to Nicole and this gentleman.”
Claire was stunned and clearly did not understand.
“Apologize? I’m their elder. How can I apologize to them?”
Mrs. Carter wanted to gnash her teeth. The Carter family did not look fondly upon her maiden home, especially Claire, who occasionally came to the door to take advantage of little benefits.
Since they were sisters, she helped whenever she could, but Claire was insatiable and went further.
Old Master Carter already reminded Mrs. Carter many times to keep a distance from Claire.
However, she never took it to heart.
Today’s commotion was bound to make Old Master Carter angry.
She had been married into the Carter family for many years, so she naturally knew that in the end, she had to rely on the Carter family.
The Carter family’s connections and resources were the most important. If Claire ruined them, the Carter family would really be finished.
Thinking that way, Mrs. Carter took a deep breath and looked at Claire solemnly.
“Are you worthy of being an elder? Can an elder just simply accuse others? I don’t know what you’re planning to do, but if you don’t apologize today, don’t try to have any dealings with the Carter family in the future! I’ll pretend that I don’t have a sister like you!”
Mrs. Carter’s harsh words startled the people around.
Claire opened her mouth. Her expression was extremely ugly.
She wanted to say something, but she held back. She wanted to make a scene, but she could not.
That was because she knew that if she kicked up a fuss here, not only her sister, but the entire Carter family would not like her anymore.
Everyone stared at her. For the first time, Claire felt a bit flustered.
She looked at Nicole and then at Mrs. Carter.
Claire pursed her lips. Then, with a complicated gaze, she went up and looked at Nicole.
“I’m sorry.”
Nicole sneered. “Who are you saying sorry to?”
Claire gave her a deep look and glanced at the man standing behind her.
The man’s gaze was gentle when he looked at Nicole, but when he glanced over at her, his eyes hid an inexplicable chill.
Claire could not help but shiver. She was afraid.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Sloan. It was my fault. I deliberately accused you and made a fuss, but you didn’t do anything. I intentionally made a mistake. I’m sorry.”
