Chapter 133 Bonnie retorted, “You have no shame, Trina. Do you think everyone is like you? Not everyone has to cozy up to a man to survive. You constantly try to make me look bad and think I won’t retaliate, I’m not like you and don’t need to rely on others to support myself.” Avril stepped forward, arms akimbo as she said, “Donnie’s right. You and the Shepards know nothing else besides making baseless assumptions.” Trina’s eyes reddened. “You misunderstood me. I didn’t mean to slander my sister. I “Trina, stop with the sob stories. You questioned whether or not there’s a higher–up here supporting Bonnie. You set the tone the moment you entered, and now you’re trying to play the victim. “You must have the memory of a goldfish or think we forgot what you just said.” Avril always felt surprised whenever Trina spoke, thinking the latter was simply a bimbo. Hadwin retorted, “Don’t talk about my fiancee like that, Avril. You’re disrespecting my family by attacking her. Are you trying to oppose my family? You should weigh your worth before that. You’re not even a threat to us.” Daken’s expression turned grim. Although he disliked people speaking down on him and his family, especially from a younger person, he had to admit his family was inferior to the Rhodes. Hadwin sneered. “Be prepared to face the consequences if you offend my family. You stand no chance against us in this project bidding. The Smiths should consider whether or not they’re worthy of competing with us.” “Son of a—“Avril wanted to confront him, but Daken held her back. “Dad, don’t stop me! He’s insulting us, and I can’t stand it!” Daken helplessly shook his head and sighed while Bonnie grew impatient. She initially did not want to escalate the situation. When she turned to look at the lurking Hamish, he quickly understood her gaze and showed himself, Hadwin noticed his appearance and quickly approached, speaking flatteringly, “Hello there, Mr. Hamish! I’m Hadwin Rhodes. My family’s proposal will surely satisfy you.” “Really now?” Hamish replied indifferently. “Of course! It won’t take up much of your time. You can take a look now if you want.” Hadwin turned to Trina and added, “Trina, bring me the documents.‘ Trina walked over, appearing docile. However, her gaze toward Hamish revealed a hint of her inappropriate thoughts, ‘Hamish is considerably more handsome than in magazines and on television. He’s also the CEO of Tang Fusion Studios and its chief designer.‘ Many women dreamed of being with Hamish. Compared to him, Hadwin looked like a clown. Even so, there was nothing Trina could do with Hamish since he stood at the top of the metaphorical food chain. He was not someone a woman like Trina could aspire to be with. 2/2 Once Hamish finished reviewing the proposal, his expression darkened. “What is this? It’s not even a proper proposal. Why would you waste my time with this garbage?!” Hadwin felt so embarrassed that he wished to hide in a hole. Many representatives from other companies were there to compete for the project. They all watched mockingly.
