The man’s words were neither too loud nor too quiet, just enough for those nearby to hear.
"Ah, isn’t that Yvette Aston? The imposter in the case of the false heiress six years ago."
"Yes, and I’ve heard her private life is quite indiscreet, involved with several n."
"Yvette, have you forgotten ?" The man teased, looking at Yvette. "Now you’ve latched onto Mr. Grant, how could you forget your old lover?"
"I was your first man." The man clearly intended to fra Yvette.
Before coming to the banquet, Yvette had guessed what tactics lody Crowe might use.
Utilizing her to tarnish Ethan Grant’s reputation.
Everyone gathered around to watch the commotion, and even Mr. Carter, who was talking to Ethan Grant, was stunned.
"Ethan... what’s going on here?" An elder familiar with Ethan Grant asked in bewildernt.
"Mr. Grant, how could you keep such a person by your side as an assistant? Were you deceived by her?"
"Ethan, your judgnt is seriously questionable, bringing her to such an important occasion, isn’t it embarrassing enough?" lody Crowe ca over nobly, wearing a high-end dress and high heels.
With her was Scott Aldridge’s mother.
A renowned female entrepreneur of the older generation in Solara, everything Scott Aldridge has is inherited from his mother, who took over her mother’s business.
"Does Grant Group choose an assistant so carelessly?" Scott Aldridge’s mother was obviously displeased, wondering how such a controversial person could be brought to a bidding event.
"Mother, there might be a misunderstanding. This is Yvette Aston, whom I ntioned to you years ago, and she picked this gift of crabs." Scott Aldridge quickly ca over to explain for Yvette.
Given Ethan Grant’s connections, who would dare embarrass him in the business world? Clearly, this was a deliberate setup to fra him.
Mrs. Aldridge looked Yvette up and down. Although she understood soone was doing this intentionally, those like Ethan Grant, in high positions, should be more cautious in selecting people.
"Hello, ma’am." Yvette restrained her anxiety and stiffness, stepped forward, and bowed. "I’m sorry for giving you a bad impression."
"Mr. Grant, do you have high standards for choosing assistants? They must be quite adept, right?" The man was obviously trying to embarrass Ethan Grant.
"Is the standard for the bidding venue so low?" Ethan Grant’s voice was low and very displeased.
Scott Aldridge noticed Ethan was angry and quickly had soone investigate the identity of the man speaking.
"Yvette’s reputation in ridia is known to all. An indiscreet woman with behavioral issues who’s even been to jail is completely unpresentable, Ethan. You’re indeed too immature this ti. How could you bring her?" lody Crowe added fuel to the fire.
As long as Scott Aldridge’s mother was angry with Ethan Grant, the cooperation would definitely be handled by Jayden Grant.
"Yvette, have you forgotten ? Too many n?" The man continued to tease Yvette, smiling.
"Sir, do I have a birthmark on my left arm or my right arm?" Yvette apologized and looked at the man speaking.
The man was taken aback. "How would I know..."
"Didn’t you say we’ve been together? Using such a thod to attack won, degrade won, trying to use this ans to hurt and suppress won, to negate our capabilities and contributions at work, because you think so-called indiscretion in private life can erase all my efforts at work?" Yvette’s voice was dignified and calm.
She was Ethan Grant’s assistant, which ant she represented Ethan Grant’s image.
She couldn’t let Ethan Grant’s reputation be tarnished.
"I am Mr. Grant’s assistant. I just need to excel at work, and Mr. Grant only needs to see my effort and excellence at work, That’s enough. As for the filth and dirt you’re talking about, those with dirty souls see everything as dirty."
Yvette knew, Scott Aldridge’s mother, as a female entrepreneur of her generation, endured pressures and slander many others did not face.
Those inferior n would slander her achievents and abilities, and those inferior won would slander her for rising through n.
Today, Yvette indeed needed to thank lody Crowe for allowing her to leave a good impression in front of Mrs. Aldridge.
"Now, please answer , my birthmark, is it on the left arm or the right arm?" Yvette’s voice was low. "If you can’t answer, I will legally pursue your defamation."
The man paused and instinctively looked at lody Crowe.
"Why are you looking at Mrs. Crowe? Could it be that she orchestrated you to defa Mr. Grant and sabotage this bidding cooperation?" Yvette looked at lody Crowe in feigned shock. "Mrs. Crowe, how could you do this? Though Ethan is the child of Mr. Grant’s first wife, you’re showing too much favoritism."
lody Crowe only knew how to please Scott Aldridge’s mother but seed not to inquire with due diligence that Scott’s mother went into business herself because Scott’s biological father had an affair and insisted on marrying the mistress, driving her and her child away.
"Yvette! What nonsense are you talking?" lody was shocked; was this Yvette? Was she crazy?
Slamd directly by Yvette, lody wished she could tear Yvette’s mouth apart. "Alright, I didn’t realize you were so capable, you little vixen. You want to sow discord in our family? Who do you think you are, your reputation is already in shambles, does it need further defamation?"
Yvette instinctively glanced back at Ethan Grant.
Ethan gave Yvette a deep look and nodded slightly.
Yvette suddenly felt at ease because she knew Ethan Grant had her back.
"Exactly, I’ve slept with you for so long, how would I know if your birthmark is on the left arm or right arm, I only rember you had a birthmark, who can rember where it is?" The man started to bounce back.
"Oh." Yvette fixed her eyes on Jayden Grant, who hadn’t said a word. "Young Master Grant, do I have a birthmark on my arm?"
"Who are you asking!" lody glared angrily at Yvette. "Our Jayden would never touch a filthy woman like you."
Jayden Grant’s face looked very bad, almost without any color.
"Jayden Grant, we were together for nearly five years, from sophomore year in high school to sophomore in college... I was once your publicly acknowledged fiancée, don’t you want to say sothing for ?" Yvette did this on purpose.
Since lody wants to use her to tarnish Ethan Grant, Yvette would fling the dirt back at her.
With a slightly hoarse voice, Yvette quietly looked at Jayden Grant.
She wanted to see how Jayden would defa her.
In such a public setting, if Jayden, like his mother, defad her, then whose judgnt was really bad after all?
Ethan Grant was just her boss; it was enough for her to have the ability to work.
But in terms of private life, his judgnt as an ex-boyfriend was even more disgusting.
"Stop bringing up the past, our Jayden was just fooled by you, you secretly ssed around behind his back..."
"Stop it." Jayden’s voice was low as he interrupted lody.
"Yvette... doesn’t have a birthmark, this person is deliberately slandering Yvette, this matter... ends here." Jayden took a deep breath, glanced at lody, and turned away in embarrassnt.
The thing he cared about most was having been embarrassed due to rumors of Yvette ssing around with other n in a hotel, and now lody said it in front of so many people, of course, he couldn’t bear it.
"Mr. Aldridge, we’ve checked; this person wasn’t invited to the venue." Over there, Christopher Carter brought over the person in charge of the venue.
The man’s face changed, and he panicked and tried to run.
Ethan Grant reached out to grab the man’s back collar, his face extrely unpleasant. "Creating trouble at Mr. Aldridge’s bidding venue... this matter can be big or small."
Everyone gasped, Ethan Grant... seed to be really angry.
