Chapter 358 Stay Away from Me

The whole place was in chaos.

Whitney was laughing so hard that she could barely breathe.

After Clarence shoved Lydia and she fell into Jasper, the two of them crashed into an expensive piece of equipment. That was the last straw for Patrick.

Whitney completely lost it then, leaning against Claudia’s shoulder. Her tears rolled down her face from laughing so hard.

Even Claudia couldn’t help smiling a little.

People who always acted like they were above everyone else weren’t any better when things got ugly.

When it came to profit, everyone was ready to toss their morals aside, get nasty, and fight it out in public. Nobody was classier.

Yet she sold it off to their enemies at a low price.

Lydia still looked rattled, but her voice was sharp and mocking. “Why shouldn’t I? Your family’s fall isn’t my problem. You already took back every cent and every bit of property you gave me.
