Sharon looked at the jewelry box scattered at her feet.
The necklace inside had been broken into two pieces, falling out on the ground.
Natalia pretended to just take it in, "Erica, what are you doing?"
Erica said, "Natalia, this woman faked her pregnancy to force Jameson to marry her.And she even tried
to make a play for Martin!"
"Ally is not such a person.You must be mistaken about that."
Erica sneered.
She looked directly into Sharon's eyes, "You are good at acting, aren't you? You really think people
cannot find out what kind of person you are? Putting on beautiful clothes does not help."
"Erica...’ Natalia murmured.
Sharon turned around.
She looked calmly at Erica, asking, "Then what kind of person I am?"
"Don't you know? You have been pestering Martin ever since you divorced Jameson.Martin and I are
engaged! But you are still pestering him.Can't you live without a man?"
Sharon smiled faintly, "If I am meant to snatch the man from you, you two won't even get engaged."
Erica gritted her teeth, "You finally admit it!"
"Because I am worthy of the heart.You're afraid one day Martin will abandon you, right? Since this is
what you want, how about I fulfil your dream right now?"
"You…” Erica raised her hand, trying to beat Sharon.
But Natalia stopped her, "Erica, stay calm.’ Erica had totally lost her mind, "Such a shameless woman!
She asks for it!"
Natalia frowned, "This is such a big day.Martin and his parents are all here.It won't be good for you if
things go out of control."
Erica calmed down.
However, what she was more afraid of was Jameson.
He was also present today.
If he knew she hit Sharon, he would definitely not spare her.
Erica withdrew her hand while glancing at Sharon's belly.
She came up with an idea.
Noise reigned over the banquet hall at this moment.
Natalia's man came over and whispered a few words to her.Natalia suddenly changed her
countenance.
She took a few steps, trying to leave.But then she turned at Sharon.
"Ms.Ally, I might have to trouble you to come with me.
There was something wrong with the items that Lumiere Jewelry is about to auction today.’ A man
came out after they left.
He stood there for a while, looking at the broken necklace on the ground, and then picked it up after
pondering for a few seconds.
Then, he turned around and left.
At the charity auction.
The items were displayed in sequence.
When it came to Sharon's works, Lance and Rita all looked surprised.
Rita even murmured, "Isn't this the one I made for Miss Beale?"
Although her voice was not loud, it still stirred up heated discussion among the guests.
The present whispered, "What are they doing? Auctioning a personally customized necklace?"
"It does not make sense.Shouldn't it be Ally's turn? How come...What's going on?"
"Is Ally the designer who was said to be kept as a Sugar baby? I went to Lumiere Jewelry's last product
launch.She is indeed pretty.It's not bad to have such a woman.’
The man who just finished speaking felt a cold and sharp gaze on him.
However, he found nothing when he turned around.
Lance was the one who was most worried.
Before the jewelry were delivered here, he checked them over and over again until making sure that
everything was right on track.He found Rita, asking with a frown, "What's wrong?"
Rita shook her head, "I don't know either.Yesterday I found the necklace was lost.I checked with Miss
Beale, and she denied taking it away.Mr.Carter, I saw Ally's finished product before.She has no reason
to do that."
Lance didn't expect that she would explain for Ally.
He didn't say anything for a moment.
Frankly speaking, the most suspicious one in this accident was Rita.
Lance studied Rita's face.
She looked calm and collected.
There was no trace of guilt found.
He said, "Come with me.We should explain what happened to Morton Group.Try your best to minimize
the damage.’
"Alright."
When Sharon and Natalia arrived, the host had announced the suspension of the auction.
Everyone was discussing this matter.
Rumors which had died down began to circulate, saying that Sharon had been kept by wealthy
businessmen and that her works were just copies of those of others.
They maliciously mocked that the situation now was like karmic retribution.
Some even claimed that the reason why Lumiere Jewelry always covered up for her was because she
slept with some of the higher-ups.
They sounded so sure as if they already had evidence in hand.
Erica stood beside, crossing her arms and mocking, "There are only things that you cannot imagine,
yet nothing she cannot do.She always pocketed others’ stuff."Natalia whispered, "Erica, no more.
We haven't figured out the truth.Don't wrong innocent people.’
"She knows whether I have wronged her or not."
Sharon did not want to have a meaningless quarrel with Erica.
She found a staff in the crowd and asked, "Where is Mr.Carter?"
"Ally?"
The staff was a little surprised when he saw Sharon.
But he quickly replied, "Mr.Carter and Rita went to find Mr.Morton."
"Where did they go?" Sharon asked.
"The VIP lounges."
Sharon nodded and thanked him.
Then she turned to Natalia, "Miss Beale, I'm sorry.I'll excuse you for a moment."
"I'll go with you,’ Natalia said.
Just as Sharon was about to refuse, Natalia continued, "After all, this thing also has something to do
with me."
"Alright."
Mr.Morton just heard a lot of rumors about Sharon.
He couldn't hide his anger, "What do you mean? Why would you present her works? And now things
get even worse!"
Lance hurriedly said, "I am really sorry, but there might be some misunderstandings.The rumors are not
true.She personally designed the jewelry for today's auction.Something must have gone wrong in it...."
"I don't care! The charity event had been destroyed! I've asked the staff to remove her works.You'd
better make a clarification about it afterwards."
Lance frowned, "If you just delete her name from the list without any explanation, people will get
more..."
Mr.Morton interrupted him coldly, "This is none of my business."
