Reflecting on the past, ine suddenly came to a painful realization: she had mistreated Charlie far too much in their previous encounters.


    Memories flooded her mind of how she had been arrogant, often yelling, and even bullying and insulting Charlie. The weight of regret settled heavily on her heart.


    She couldn’t shake the thought, “What if Charlie still harbors hatred for me? I might be missing this chance entirely—it might be exactly what he wants. If he wishes for me to stay away, he wouldn’t even attempt to help me. Am I destined to toil in the ck brick kiln for the rest of my life?!”


    Overwhelmed by her emotions, ine broke down in tears.


    Meanwhile, Donald turned to Cynthia and asked, “Since you im to belong to the Wade family, what proof can you provide?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Cynthia quickly replied, “I have my checkbook and my personal signature stamp in my bag. Feel free to check!”


    Donald nced at Harold and asked, “Where is her bag?”


    Harold promptly returned from the van, carrying Cynthia’s exquisite top-tier Hermès bag.


    Upon seeing the bag, Donald felt a jolt of recognition. Although ine had no idea of its true value, Donald certainly did. Histe wife, Xenia, had participated in the Hermès spring show where this bag had been a showstopper.


    ording to Hermès’ official introduction, this bag was crafted by the finest artisans, handmade, and only one existed, making it exceptionally valuable.


    Back then, Xenia had set her eyes on this bag, and Donald had tried repeatedly to secure it. Unfortunately, he learned that it had already been ordered by a prominent celebrity from Eastcliff, making it impossible for anyone else to purchase.


    Xenia had been persistent, even coaxing Donald to find a way to acquire it for her.


    Despite his efforts, Donald was ultimately advised by a senior Hermès official to let it go, given that it had been imed by a member of Eastcliff’s elite family.


    Understanding thatpeting against such a powerful figure was futile, Donald purchased numerous other Hermès items for Xenia to distract her from the coveted bag.


    Now, seeing that bag again, he instinctively recognized Cynthia’s true identity!


    In that moment, a wave of despair washed over Donald. “Isn’t this just unbelievable? Today, the Wilson family had been trying to curry favor with him, and because they wanted to pursue ine, they came to gloat over Charlie’s misfortunes. Yet, who would have imagined that the Wilsons would end up entangled with the eldest daughter of the Wade family?”


    “This is someone from the Wade family! Regardless of how foolish the Wilsons are, how could such an important figure be mixed up with them? Doesn’t she have any bodyguards?”


    As these thoughts raced through his mind, Harold had already handed Cynthia’s bag over. He presented it to Donald with great reverence, saying, “Mr. Webb, I suggest you don’t trust this disrespectful woman. When we went to find ine, she was conspiring with her. It’s hard to believe someone of her status would be without even a bodyguard!”


    Cynthia quickly interjected, “I did bring them! I had two bodyguards and an assistant with me, but when I went to the beauty salon to discuss Charlie with ine, I didn’t want her to realize who I was, so I asked my bodyguard to wait outside…”<fnc63e> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? find?novel</fnc63e>


    With rising frustration, Cynthia continued, “I never expected that the owner of that beauty salon would be in cahoots with you!”
