The Billionaire And His Son Want Me Back by Juliette Vaughan

Chapter 127

A guest said, "So, Nion wasn't invited here by Ms. Prescott, but rather by Crown&Culture. And Ms. Prescott lied, claiming Nion came because of her invitation."

The crowd cast meaningful gazes at Marissa, and the atmosphere shifted. The guests present were sharp and immediately understood what Marissa's intention had been.
