Chapter 128
Liam stared coldly at Wasyl. A glimmer of malice flashed through his eyes as he snarled, "Are you saying that my invitations are fake?"
"Yes!" Wasyl replied confidently. Then, he took his own invitation out of his pocket and waved it tauntingly in front of Liam. "Mine is the real deal. Why don't you show me yours and we can compare the two? We can easily tell who is real and who is fake by then!
"Everyone can step forward and take a look if you like, but I'm sure all of you have the real ones. After all, there's no need for you to sneak into someplace like this with a fake invitation when you're invited! Unfortunately, I can't say the same for you, Liam. Come on. Do you want to compare invitations?"
With that, Wasyl wagged his invitation high up in the air as though he was taunting Liam.
As soon as he said this, everyone began taking out their invitations and comparing them to those next to them. They all soon came to the realization that they possessed exactly the same invitations!
Liam, on the other hand, remained motionless and did not make any move to take out his invitation at all.
Wasyl sneered. "What's wrong? Why don't you show us your invitation? I knew it! You're holding a fake one after all! How can you think you'd be able to get away with this? Let me tell you, Liam, that you really shouldn't get off on the wrong foot with our host today. You'd better get out of here before he finds out, otherwise the consequences will be dire!"
Liam sneered, then took three invitations out of his pocket and laid them out in front of everyone.
Wasyl immediately stepped forward and snatched the invitations out of Liam's hand, then showed it to everyone around him with his own as a comparison. Finally, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Everyone, look! His invitations are different from ours! His are obviously fake. There's no way everyone here has fake ones, whereas his is the real deal, right?" Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Just as Wasyl said, the invitations that belonged to Liam were indeed different to his. Liam's invitations had gold-embossed lettering that spelled out 'VIP' in the back, whereas Wasyl's was empty.
The Stones were beginning to panic, because all of them had realized that they possessed the ones identical to Liam's, the ones which Lieutenant Andrews had sent over the night before!
None of them even realized that these invitations were fake. Otherwise, they would not have dared to show up at all. No one had the guts to deceive the mayor of the city himself!
The Stones, save for Yafe, all began to murmur among themselves. "What should we do? I have the invitation that Lieutenant Andrews sent over…"
"Damn it, it's all Liam's fault! How can he humiliate us at the Max Group's event?"
"What are we going to do? Do you think we'll be arrested if they find out?"
The Stones all turned to glare at Liam. If looks could kill, Liam would be dead by now.
The color drained from Celena's face. She clutched Liam's arm tightly as she trembled in fear, and even Jovie could sense the tension in the air and burst into tears. "Dad…I'm scared… I want to go home! I'm scared…"
