Chapter 648
However, Iris had made a good opportunity for Haven. Paulina had agreed to cooperate with the Jotham Alwynn Group, and Haven had contributed to the cooperation. Phillip's attitude toward her was much better.
Now...
Haven showed a sarcastic and weird smile on her face.
She took a few steps forward. She was wearing a beige, high-collared sweater and a pair of wide-legged pants with a drape effect. Her figure was slender and elegant. She looked fashionable with a sense of languor, completely different from her usual image as a gentle young lady from a rich family.
She stopped beside Vincent. This place was very close to the position of Iris, so Iris could hear her words clearly. She withdrew the smirk in her eyes and suddenly changed to a worried expression, saying, "Miss Yates, I think there must be a misunderstanding. It was impossible that Mr. Alwynn has made such a promise."
In other words, she was blaming Iris to have trusted a playboy like Vincent.
Iris looked at Haven and frowned. She thought Haven was really good at controlling her temper because she hadn't shown up until now.
"Why impossible? I have recordings here. If you don't believe me, I can play them for you in front of these reporters." Iris said in a tearful voice.
In the eyes of the crowd, she was delicate and pitiful.
Vincent's reputation as a heartless love rat had been widely spread on the internet.
Rebecca and Phillip looked at Haven. At this time, they also hoped that Haven could subside the tumult. It would be better if Haven would like to speak up for Vincent instead of them.
Haven squinted slightly, and her eyes flashed with calculation. As soon as Haven began to speak, the cameras in the reporters' hands were instantly turned to her.
"Click, click..." The flashlight kept shining on Haven's face. Her worried expression looked so sincere that many people felt sorry for her.
Haven continued, "Miss Yates, I think you misunderstood. When did Mr. Alwynn promise to marry you?"
Vincent glanced at Haven, not understanding why she asked this question.
After she asked such a question, wouldn't it make him seem even worse?
"Haven, don't you know? Mr. Alwynn was with me in the night when we were attending the fair. You also went to the fair. Don't tell me that you don't know about it." Iris didn't know why Haven asked this question. Anyway, she was just telling the truth, so she was not afraid of being investigated.
Vincent hadn't given her enough money. If he wanted to settle this matter, he had to give her five million dollars. Otherwise, she would let Vincent know what a bad end he would come to after dumping her. Haven shook her head with a painful look. She suddenly glared at Vincent and then cast a worried look at Iris.
"Miss Yates, I was too busy those days and didn't notice it. However, Mr. Alwynn is already married to me. Many media had reported this news some time ago. Miss Yates, don't you know that?" Haven's voice was full of pain and helplessness.
"I don't know." Iris quickly shook her head and denied it. Suddenly, she realized something was wrong.
Was Haven digging a hole for her?
Haven took out her mobile phone. When she lowered her head slightly, a sneer appeared on her lips. She had been prepared before she had come here, and she had been waiting for Iris to say this so that she could slap her in the face.
She showed a comment in front of the reporters' cameras and said in a sad tone, "Miss Yates, the Yates family in Eastern District was running three supermarkets. Is it your family?"
"Yes!" Iris proudly answered. She didn't want to hide her identity. Her identity had already been exposed on many social networking platforms.
Haven suddenly moved her mobile closer to the cameras. She Looked at Iris, and her tears fell instantly. She said, "Miss Yates, there is still a comment from you in my SNS. You wished me a happy marriage. You clearly know that Mr. Alwynn and I have gotten married, but you..."
Haven swallowed back the words on the tip of her tongue. She lowered her head, and the crystal-clear teardrops fell to the ground.
Her words had also aroused the suspicion of the public.
Vincent instantly understood Haven's intention. She had come here to help him.
Iris's face suddenly turned ugly, and a sense of crisis spread in her heart.
She had expected Haven was just eye candy...
As far as she was concerned, Haven was as quiet as a puppet, manipulated by the
Clement family.
But today, Haven turned out to be a hard nut to crack.
Suddenly, Vincent looked at Haven with a remorseful look, saying "Haven, you have to believe me. It is this woman that has been pestering me. I know that you are very busy, and I don't want you to be bothered, so I didn't dare to tell you this matter. Haven, you must believe me. It is Miss Yates that drugged me. I was unconscious when it happened."
Iris was lost for words.
Haven kept silent.
Everyone else was also speechless.
Even Rebecca and Phillip did not believe Vincent's words.
Of course, Haven did not buy his story.
Vincent had a glib tongue and was good at hoaxing women. She would believe in the nonsense that there were ghosts in the world rather than Vincent's words. However, since she was putting on a play now, she could only force herself to continue.
"Vincent, shame on you! Are you framing me now?" Iris hadn't expected a twist like this.
Vincent glared at her, "Iris, you clearly know that I am married, but you did such a thing to me. Now you're threatening me with your life. What do want?"
Vincent's last sentence was like stepping on Iris's face.
What did she want?
She wanted money. There was no problem that could not be solved by money.
And right now, she was in desperate need of money.
The reporters were also confused. They looked at Iris and wanted to ask something, but they were afraid of irritating her. If Iris got so upset that she jumped down, no one could take the responsibility for killing her.
"Mr. Alwynn, have you really been drugged?" A female reporter asked sharply.
Vincent said, "Yes! I wanted to maintain Miss Yates's reputation, so I didn't say it. I don't want us to be so embarrassed."
Haven despised him from the bottom of her heart. Hadn't he embarrassed people around him enough? She felt so ashamed.
And the Jotham Alwynn Group had been completely disgraced.
"Vincent, you are slandering me. You just want to avoid responsibility. You bastard! You are a love rat. Well, I will use my death to clean my name." Iris's voice was excited, her face was full of tears, and she was covered with despair.
At this time, everyone got nervous. When they had just distracted Iris, a firefighter had quietly approached her, who was suffering in pain.
Iris was truly distressed. The situation had already far exceeded her imagination.
Why had she been so stupid at that time? Why had she left the commend? Why had she followed Haven on SNS?
In this way, people would believe it was indeed her that had seduced Vincent. She had known that he was married, but she still slept with him. Public opinion would put her at a distinct disadvantage.
