Chapter 99
These whispers were like a knife stabbing into Eliza’s heart.
Especially when she discovered that Albert and Fiona were secretly looking at Audrey, it made her blood boil.
She stood up immediately and said coldly with a straight face. “I can’t agree with what Mr. Barrett said just now. Getting up in someone else’s territory and refuting loudly was no different from embarassing the host in public.
For a moment, many people lookrid at Eliza with disdain,
Logan sneered and raised his eyebrows indifferently. “Yes Miss Harper, may I ask which sentence I said that you can’t agree with?”
Eliza was about to go mad with pralousy. She could not care less about others‘ opinions and said sternly, “Rhodes Enterprises can be where it is today thanks to my father. Audrey is just a handyman in the company. Moreover, her profession is not compatible. If not for the company’s kindness in taking her in, she would not be qualified to be the manager.
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall fell silent.
After a long silence, someone in the crowd couldn’t help but laugh,
A person beside Albert deliberately teased, “Albert, your daughter is too considerate.”
It sounded like a compliment, but the truth was that he was taking the opportunity to mock Albert
Albert’s face turned livid
No matter how shameless he was he didn’t dare to flatter himself like this,
Albert gritted his teeth and suppressed the shame and embarrassment in his heart. He said awkwardly. “My youngest daughter is insensible. I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you guys”
Eliza did not know what she had said wrong at all. She stomped her foot and muttered solily. “Dad, I just can’t stand Audrey bullying you company and snatching your credit outside 1-

‘s mough. Shut up Albert turned around and glared at her fiercely. He scolded in a low voice, “If you don’t know how to speak, speak less. No one will think that you’re mute”
He thought “Why do I have such an insensible daughter? She is so stupid and can’t compare to Audrey at all!
Elias eyes reddened, and tears fell aggrievedly.
She did not know what she had done wrong. She only wanted to help Albert fight for a good reputation.
Fiona hugged Eliza with heartache. She lowered her voice and tried to stop the fight. “Alright. Honey, stop talking. There are so many people watching You’re making a foul of yourself.”
Thus farce made many people present feel good.
This was especially true for the Rhodes family’s competitors. At this moment, all of them were smiling. Someone even added insult to injury.

Logan said without changing his expression, “Of course, he’s here, but he thinks it’s too noisy downstairs, so he booked a private room upstairs”
Hearing this, someone immediately couldn’t sit still. He stood up and said anxiously. Then can you introduce me to him?”
The person who spoke was considered a powerful figure in Riverdale. Logically speaking. Logan should agree.
However, what Logans said next shocked everyone even more.
He said, “I’m sorry, it’s inconvenient for Mr. Hayes to meet guests today. He only wants to invite Ms. Rhodes and her husband to the private room upstairs to chat. As for the others, there will be a chance next time.”
Audrey, standing beside Logan, raised her eyebrows in shock.
Airau
She thought, What is Mr. Hayes doing? Is he publicly supporting me or trying to arouse hatred for me?
However, with his blatant bias and favoritism, the people present could only suck with it, even
they were unhappy with her.
In the future, the Rhodes family would no longer dare to look down on her.
They could only come to please her…
Audrey frowned. She did not feel surprised. Instead, her expression gradually became solemn.
She had no idea Alistair was the Mr. Hayes they said.
She wondered why someone whom she had never met helped her like that
He even said he wanted to see her husband, which meant he knew she was already married
‘Could it be that he had improper thoughts about me and wanted to use this opportunity to make my husband retreat? Thinking of this, Audrey suddenly looked at Alistair
The man beside her seemed to be too calm
Logan did not notice anything wrong with Audrey. He whispered, “Mrs. Hayes, go up with Alistair first I’ll be there later
All of a sudden, Audrey felt enlightened. Mr. Hayes? Alistair! He’s Logan’s good
