Chapter 534 That’s Really Unfortunate

Celina’s heart was beating wildly. She had always known that her deceased mother was the biggest taboo subject for her father. David usually doted on her very much, but his attitude toward her would be different when it came to serious matters. At the thought of how furious David would be, her palms broke out in a cold sweat, and she silently hung her head.

On the other hand, Elise purposely gave a look of surprise at the sight of Faye. “Faye? It’s you? …Aren’t you Miss Saunders’ close friend? Don’t you know about the Saunderses’ taboos? Oh, I got it. You’ve been concerning yourself with the company’s affairs every day, and on top of that, you have to deal with the investigation these days. Did you perhaps make a mistake because you were too busy?”

Faye was furious and piqued, but she couldn’t say a word as she had a strip of duct tape plastered on her mouth. Indeed, what had happened today was her mistake, but she wouldn’t have been so careless if Elise hadn’t had the policeman pester her!

At the sight of Faye’s dress, David took a few deep breaths in anger. It wasn’t until Regina helped him catch his breath that he calmed down. “Faye! I’d never have thought you were the one trying to kill me!”

Faye was Celina’s friend, and David had met her before. When he heard that Faye was the person in charge of Anderson Pharmaceuticals, he even told his daughter to spend more time with Faye and learn from her. Whenever the Saunders Family’s jewelry stores launched a new product, he would tell her daughter to take Faye to one of the jewelry stores to choose from the products herself. However, he never expected this to be what he got in return for his sincerity!

Faye hung her head in shame. She had had everything figured out outside just now. Celina must have intended the red dress for Elise, but Elise had the dress delivered to her in a way she couldn’t fathom. However, she was both mentally and physically exhausted after having just returned from the detention center, so she came wearing the red dress.

At the moment, it was useless for her to say anything. She could only hope that David would let her off after venting all of his anger. After all, she couldn’t testify against Celina in public. If she wanted to secure her footing in the Anderson Family, she had to rely on an influential family like the Saunderses. Thus, she couldn’t afford a falling-out with the Saunderses.
