Chapter 546

Chapter 546 Wasn’t Worth Elise Getting Her Hands Dirty

After all, in this world, identity and status had the final say. David raised his eyebrows provocatively at Elise. “Now, Miss Sinclair, are you going to stay, or should I ask someone to send you back?”

Without waiting for Elise to speak, he made a decision for her. “I think it’s better for you to go back first. Miss Sinclair, with your current state, it’s not suitable for you to stay. Someone—”

“Mr. Saunders, you’re so domineering!”

Before David could call for a servant, he was interrupted by a majestic voice.

The moment this voice fell, Kenneth moved away from the crowd and walked to Elise’s side until he was standing side by side with her.

“Miss Anderson and I have known each other for a long time, and Smith Co. has just recently established a cooperation with the Anderson Family, so their business is also my business. I wonder if I’m qualified to seek justice for Miss Elise and the entire Anderson Family!” Kenneth’s voice was sonorous, and every word he said was powerful.

With Kenneth supporting her, the direction of the discussions changed at once.

“Since Mr. Bailey has said that, it’s better to investigate this!”

“He’s right. Whatever the case, this is also related to Miss Saunders. Doesn’t Mr. Saunders want to reclaim her innocence?”

“That’s right, the two daughters of the Anderson Family are involved. In case we have the opportunity to do business with the Anderson Family in the future, Mr. Saunders, please tell everyone the truth so we know whether or not to proceed!”

David didn’t expect Kenneth to get involved. For a while, he was in a dilemma and didn’t know what to say.

After stuttering for a long time, he stubbornly said, “Mr. Bailey, this is a matter between my family and Miss Elise. Besides, no one has lost anything. Will you please show the Saunders Family some respect and not interfere in this matter?”

“Mr. Saunders, you’re mistaken.” Without even looking at him, Kenneth turned to face all the guests, then said in a dignified manner, “Mr. Saunders, you said that this is a matter between the Saunders Family and Miss Elise, but I feel that this matter involves the Anderson Family and the Sinclair Family. The Anderson Family also has business involvements with Smith Co., which means that this involves Smith Co.’s future development in Athesea. If the Anderson Family’s reputation is damaged, wouldn’t Smith Co. be innocently implicated? Mr. Saunders, you’re a broad-minded person. You had a near- death experience, but you aren’t petty about it, and I admire that, but I’m a petty person. So far, none of the people who schemed against me behind my back have escaped my wrath!”

When he spoke, he didn’t blink, and there was no expression on his face. His composed aura was so natural that no one dared to comment.

But, as soon as Elise looked over, she met his playful gaze.

Elise shook her head and sighed. This person probably can’t stay serious for more than two minutes.

Kenneth’s attitude was so tough that David couldn’t refuse anymore, so he could only agree perfunctorily.

“If that’s the case, then we’ll do as you say, Mr. Bailey. When the birthday banquet is over, I’ll ask someone to carefully investigate the matter. I’ll definitely give the Anderson Family and you an explanation afterward.”

“Why wait? Mr. Saunders, don’t you know that we shouldn’t put off till tomorrow what you can do today!”

At the gate, a crisp young voice floated over.

Then, Danny walked up to Elise with a shop assistant dressed in uniform. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Elise, I’ve done as you said and brought the shop assistant who handled the dress over.”

Elise nodded slightly. “Well done.”

Danny turned sideways and pointed to the woman he had brought and announced loudly, “This is the shop assistant who sold the red dress. She can prove that Celina personally bought the dress, and she can provide invoices and purchase records!”

Although the guests had seen a lot today, they still couldn’t help but sigh.

“I didn’t expect that Miss Saunders is really the one behind it! Seems like we can never know what someone is thinking and planning!”

“You don’t say. I admired her before this, but I didn’t expect her to be such a shameless and vindictive woman. I was really blind!”

“It’s said that women and petty people are the hardest to deal with. If you provoke a woman like Miss Saunders, you might become a murderer at any time, and you’d end up in jail for the rest of your life!”

Standing at the staircase, David suddenly felt dizzy. If it weren’t for Edwin supporting him, he would’ve nearly fallen down again.

When he wasn’t conscious before, he heard Elise accusing Celina of scheming against her. At that time, he felt that Elise was deliberately slandering her.

However, David wasn’t sure anymore. All the facts were pointing to one thing—Celina was using him.

In order to frame an outsider, she even disregarded her father’s life!

David opened his mouth, trying to justify the situation, but he couldn’t bring himself to say anything. Instead, Edwin came to the rescue. “Who told you that you can come and spread lies here and slander Nana? Nana would never do such a thing!”

He was so angry that he tried to grab the shop assistant to teach her a lesson, but Danny stood directly in front of the woman. Faced with his firmness, Edwin stood still, not daring to move forward.

Behind him, Kenneth spoke sarcastically. “It seems that the truth has been revealed. We can never reason with facts!”

As Edwin tightly clenched his fists, his joints made a cracking sound. He wouldn’t allow anyone to slander his dream girl, but the person in question was Kenneth, and he dared not offend him.

Therefore, he could only point the spearhead at Elise.

It was because she was reluctant to forgive Celina that led to her becoming a target of the public. It was all her fault!

He raised his scarlet eyes, then pointed at Elise and accused hysterically, “You! You b*tch. You must’ve bribed the shop assistant and got her to frame Nana!”

Elise held her breath, then quietly moved her hand to the numbing needle hidden at her waist.

Those who came from the countryside were the easiest to go crazy when they got emotional. As long as he dared to approach her, she would make him suffer a fate worse than death!

While she was thinking, Edwin dashed toward her.

As soon as Elise took out the silver needle, a figure flashed to her side and rushed toward her. Then, Edwin was grabbed by the neck and lifted up into the air.

Edwin, who was still acting arrogant earlier, suddenly became like a fish on the chopping board, struggling with his limbs in the air, his whole face flushed.

Kenneth stared blankly at him. With deep dark eyes and a deep, gloomy voice like Hades’, he asked, “What did you just call her? B*tch? Do you have the right to so casually judge what kind of person Miss Sinclair is? Come to think of it, I reckon no one told you that I’ve admired Miss Sinclair for a long time but still can’t get her. I’m lacking the opportunity to act as a hero and save the beauty. Judging from the current situation, it seems like you’ll have to sacrifice yourself to fulfill my wish!”

As soon as he said this, even Elise was taken aback.

Kenneth was so unabashedly showing his interest toward her in public. Here, he was the most respected and admired person, yet he had lowered himself and was picking a fight with Edwin for her sake.

Elise suddenly felt that she didn’t understand Kenneth at all.

She thought of Alexander. They were all the same—they would always solve the trouble for her before she started dealing with it.

Kenneth wasn’t aware that Elise would compare his two identities again.

All he knew was that Edwin was a waste of space and wasn’t worth Elise getting her hands dirty.
