The True Heiress's Return

Chapter 314.

Sean exclaimed, "Ever since you stopped responding to me, I had another matchmaking event. I reached out to Lucy through the game. You ignoring me is one thing, but then you had Lucy come here, and now my mom's involved!" The more he spoke, the angrier he got.

If Lucy hadn't been caught last time, Sean might've denied everything and dismissed Xanthe as just an accomplice.

With thirty thousand a day, he could have fun in Crescentville without a care.

Xanthe was completely taken aback by Sean's accusations. "I blocked your messages; I had no idea you were being set up!" Sean furrowed his brow, as if realizing something. He coldly scoffed, "Lucy didn't tell you-she came here on her own!" Xanthe clenched her fists, now understanding that Lucy acted independently.

Xanthe thought, 'But why? Lucy doesn't even know Sean; why would she help him?'

Seeing Xanthe's expression, Sean coolly remarked, "Lucy isn't as innocent as you think."

Xanthe's demeanor darkened, and she pressed her lips together.

Sean said, "You can handle your own affairs; just remember to unblock me."

With that, he waved dismissively and smoothed out his wrinkled trousers as he walked away.

As Sean took the elevator down, he initially planned to head home.

Suddenly, he remembered Shakira worked at Lopez Group.

He called someone from Public Affairs, "Is there an intern named Shakira at your company? I want to visit her; is that okay?

Shakira and Maris were in a meeting with the team from Norpa Technology.

Midway through, a tall figure in a suit appeared outside the frosted glass.

The people in the meeting room instinctively shifted their attention. A couple of young women from Norpa whispered excitedly. "Who's out there? So handsome!"
