Chapter 85 I’m The Biggest Supporter
“Let me go!”
Amanda Jewell tried to break free, but she couldn’t.
Joleen Lewis wanted to help, but she was stopped by someone.
“Why hasn’t anyone come to save you this time?”
In front of everyone, Halley Sean leaned in and said sarcastically, “Where’s Iverson Byran? Why didn’t he come to save you?”
Amanda’s heart sank. Suddenly, it felt as if something was missing, and her expression changed.
After visiting the Byran family that day, she hadn’t contacted Iverson again.
Halley sneered, pulled Amanda toward him, and lowered his voice. “Do you really think you can climb up the social ladder through the Byran Family? Are you daydreaming?”
Without waiting for Amanda to come back to her senses, he forcibly pulled Amanda to the front of the crowd and said sarcastically, “Even if the Sean Family has gone back to three years ago, it would be much more powerful than such a shabby company. Look at your Miss Jewell. Who does she have? Isn’t she being controlled by me?”
Amanda’s arm hurt from the grip, but she didn’t make a sound.
At that moment, a cold voice came from the door. “Is it enough for the entire Byran Group to be Amanda’s supporter?”
While everyone was shocked, they saw a man appear at the door.
His eyebrows were as cold as a cliff, and his eyes were full of oppression. As soon as he appeared, the atmosphere in the room froze, and all the people who were smashing stopped.
Iverson strode in and repeated coldly, “I’m her supporter, Mr. Sean. Do you think that’s enough?”
Halley’s complexion turned pale.
At the same time, Amanda broke free from his grip and looked at Iverson with a complicated expression.
Halley said awkwardly, “Mr. Byran, why are you here? Didn’t you… go abroad?”
Going abroad? Amanda was shocked.
Did he go abroad in the past few days?
Iverson said coldly, “Mr. Sean, you sure are well-informed to keep such a close watch on my schedule. What’s wrong? If you know that I am supporting Safe Home Real Estate, why are you deliberately going against me?”
“No, of course not. It’s impossible for us to go against Mr. Byran.”
“Is it the same if you go against my fiancée?”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Amanda looked at Iverson in disbelief as well.
“Fiancée?” Halley could not believe what he had heard. “You… you…”
He recalled how Iverson had beaten him up for Amanda’s sake, the cheating that Amanda talked about, and the frequency at which Amanda had visited the Byran Group and Iverson over the past few months before their divorce…
Halley’s expression instantly turned pale.
They had hooked up with each other a long time ago!
At that moment, Olinka Fane’s eyes were filled with jealousy.
How could Amanda find such a perfect husband after the divorce? What right did she have to do so?
“When the date is settled, Mr. Sean would know if I was being serious or not.”
Halley’s face turned livid with anger. After clenching his fists for a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, “Let’s go!”
“Wait,” Amanda, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up, “Halley Sean, Olinka Fane, it’s not that easy for you to just leave after smashing my things, is it?”
Just as Halley was about to explode in anger, he saw Iverson standing to the side and suppressed his anger. “Then what do you want?”
Joleen snappily replied, “What do you think we should do now that so many items have been smashed?”
“Tell me the number.”
“Don’t worry,” Amanda said calmly, “I’ll ask the Finance department to calculate the exact amount of money and send it to the Sean Group another day.”
“In addition to this, you have to apologize to me.”
“Apologize to you?” Halley’s face was stunned. He glanced at Iverson out of the corner of his eye and said sarcastically, “You’ve climbed so high that you want my apology now?”
Amanda sneered. “Did you really think that I wouldn’t know that you were here to pick a fight?”
While she was talking, the shutter in the independent office behind her was suddenly opened, and a figure was standing inside. She was holding a mobile phone and had already recorded the video of the scene that Halley had just made.
“Anne.” Everyone was astonished.
Anne was Amanda’s newly hired assistant. No wonder she hadn’t been seen since the company’s opening ceremony.
“Mr. Sean, do you think you can still deny it if we call the police now?”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
In the blink of an eye, his face turned red out of anger.
Amanda said, “I don’t need anyone to support me. I’m my biggest supporter.”
“Amanda, you’re shrewd enough. Why didn’t I see it clearly earlier?”
“Apologize and this matter will be dropped.”
Halley crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked calm. She didn’t want to talk nonsense with the Sean Family.
Halley was furious. He had lived for 30 years, but he had never been humiliated like this in public. He wanted to leave without saying a word.
Unfortunately, Iverson was just around him. His assistant raised his hand and blocked Halley’s way.
Olinka gritted her teeth and said, “Wherever it is possible, it’s best to forgive others. Don’t go overboard.”
Joleen sarcastically said, “Is it your turn to speak here?”
In the room full of chaos, the seven or eight burly men had heard of Iverson’s name and had not dared to make another move, fearing that they would be in big trouble. They had no choice but to apologize.
Halley clenched his fists and said reluctantly, “I’m sorry.”
Amanda said lightly, “Speak louder. I didn’t hear you.”
After a few seconds of silence, Halley raised his voice and said through gritted teeth, “I’m sorry!”
“Get out.”
Amanda waved her hand and asked him to leave as if she was driving away a dog.
Before leaving, Halley shot an angry look at Amanda and Iverson.
As soon as the uninvited guest left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Amanda’s response just now was satisfying, and the people led by Mr. Ewell admired her even more.
Everyone looked at Amanda and Iverson, exchanging confused looks.
A young and fearless man blurted out, “Miss Jewell, when are you and Mr. Byran getting married?”
The air suddenly quieted down.
The worker reacted quickly. He patted the young man on the head and said, “Hurry up. Call a few people to install the surveillance camera. Install a few more from the elevator to every corner of the office so that no one from Sean Group could cause trouble for us again.”
“Yes, yes, yes, I’ll go and find someone now.”
The office immediately became busy.
Joleen also found an excuse to leave. “I’ll go and tally up the losses.”
In the blink of an eye, the crowd dispersed, leaving only Amanda and Iverson.
“Why haven’t you called me these days? Why didn’t you tell me about the company’s opening?”
His thin, cold lips parted to form a sentence. It sounded like he was blaming her, but it was also like a complaint exclusive to lovers.
Amanda was stunned for a second. Seeing Iverson, she remembered that he had gone abroad in the past few days. She clenched her fists and said, “Mr. Byran, you’re such a busy man. How can I disturb you with such a trivial matter?”
Her tone was neither warm nor cold, and it caused a trace of astonishment to Iverson’s cold face.
It had only been three days since they last met, but Amanda felt like a completely different person.
