The Betrayed Heiress' Return to Elegance 161

Chapter 161 Completely Wrong

At the Ashton residence, Rita stared blankly at the television screen, unable to tear her

eyes away.

She had never expected events to spiral so dramatically, ending in a way she couldn't

have fathomed.

The heads of CBP and the cultural relic department had publicly stepped forward to clear Corrine's name, not only exonerating her but also unveiling her esteemed status

as a first-class restoration specialist and a special consultant.

Even Waldo had made an appearance, standing firmly by her side in the lawsuit.

Farris sat in silence, his expression grim as the weight of the revelation sank in. Even

after Corrine's identity was laid bare for all to see, there was no relief in his features- only a heavy sigh escaping his lips.

Everything was wrong. Completely wrong.

From the very beginning, the Ashton family had dismissed Corrine as nothing more than a destitute girl from the countryside. But in reality, she was the owner of Timeless Treasures, a renowned restoration specialist, and a respected

consultant for the cultural relic department.
