After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

Chapter 1016



Jocelyn screamed in anger, "Call the police, Tristan, Marcelo! He assaulted me!"

Meanwhile, in the adjacent lounge, Sylvia and Carley walked out leisurely.

Seeing the disheveled Jocelyn with her ugly face exposed to everyone, Sylvia smirked.

This was a case of reaping what one sows.

She had intended to harm Carley but ended up hurting herself instead.

The Sweeney brothers were livid.

Tristan immediately took off his suit jacket to cover his sister. Seeing the hideous face beneath her torn mask, he turned away, suppressing his nausea. "I'll take you back to your room."

The male servant wasn't truly drunk. Seeing so many people, he sobered up instantly.

Especially when he saw Jocelyn's grotesque face, his expression twisted in horror.

"So ugly! So ugly! How could I have kissed someone so hideous! She tricked me; she seduced me!"

Jocelyn nearly fainted from rage. "Look at yourself, you worthless scum!"

What infuriated her more was that everyone now knew about her disfigured face. Her face was ruined!

Her face was covered with worm-like squiggly lines. It was disgusting!

She only wished she could pass out.

The Sweeney family managed to suppress the scandal.

The male servant was quickly taken away to the police station.

Jocelyn retreated to her room to hide, but everyone had already found out about her disfigured face and whispered among themselves.

The Sweeney family's reputation was in tatters.

Just then, a servant from the Hipps family arrived with a dress for Sylvia. She went to change into it. The dress was a gentle yellow, making her skin look even fairer and more radiant. Carley stayed by her side. "Good thing we listened to you and went to the northernmost lounge in front of that maid. After she left, we quickly moved next door."

"Otherwise, you would have been humiliated today," Sylvia said with a smirk.

Carley patted her chest in lingering fear, feeling chilled by the thought that her former friend hated her so deeply.

"Why does she hate me so much? I treated her sincerely."

"People are unpredictable," Sylvia said calmly. "That maid failed her task and won't have a good outcome either. She brought this on herself."

At that moment, the maid was trembling before Jocelyn.

"Didn't you tell me everything was done? How dare you set me up!"

Jocelyn stomped on the maid's hand, wishing she could crush it completely.

"No... Miss, I didn't send you to that lounge!"

The maid cried bitterly. Everyone wore maid outfits and similar makeup tonight... They all looked alike.

Someone must have deliberately guided Miss there!

Jocelyn couldn't swallow this insult, especially knowing everyone had seen her ugly face. Most importantly, Carley was unscathed.

Her anger and hatred grew!

She wanted revenge! She must have revenge!

The maid begged on the floor, "Miss, I did as you instructed... I don't know why... I really don't know!"

Her hand hurt so much it felt like it would break.

But Jocelyn's anger was unabated. "You wretch! Die! All of you, die!"

The maid's face twisted in pain. "Please spare me... Please..."

"You deserve to be fertilizer for the garden! The flowers need you!" Jocelyn laughed maniacally and made a call.

Soon, two burly men arrived, stuffed a rag into the maid's mouth, and bagged her before dragging her away.

After silently dealing with the maid, Jocelyn sent another maid out. "Keep an eye on Carley! See what she bids on later. My items must be higher-end and more valuable than hers." The maid dared not protest. The previous maid's fate as fertilizer was a grim warning. She couldn't afford any mistakes.

She quickly nodded and left.

Leaving Jocelyn's room, her face was filled with anxiety and pain. Working for the Sweeney family was pure torment.

But what choice did she have?

The Sweeney family paid well but came with high risks.

Any day she could disappear without a trace.

She sighed and quietly headed to the auction site.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

The auction was in full swing.

Families brought items for auction, usually inexpensive jewelry, accessories, or paintings...

Few were willing to part with valuable items.

After all, the Sweeney family's reputation wasn't great. People showed some respect but weren't willing to bleed too much.

However... there were exceptions. Some sought the Sweeney family's favor and saw this as an opportunity to catch their eye and please the brothers.

One businessman brought a painting by an ancient master worth millions on the black market.

When it appeared at auction, everyone was stunned!

"Oh my! That painting is priceless."

"Indeed!"

The businessman fawned over Tristan. "Mr. Sweeney, what do you think of this painting..."

Tristan glanced at him. This guy knew how to play the game. "Not bad."

Hearing this, the businessman beamed. "About our project..."

"Approved," Tristan called his assistant over. "Handle this gentleman's project personally. Make sure all procedures are complete."

Seeing the businessman benefit, others eager to curry favor with the Sweeney family felt encouraged and began offering their treasures for auction.

They were essentially gifting their

valuables under the guise of

auctioning them off among

themselves while the Sweeney

family pocketed the money. Wolnet

Kon&

they used it for charity was anyone's guess...

No one had the right to audit the Sweeney family's books.

Sylvia and Carley sat together as if they had planned it.

Sylvia had a pair of pearl earrings; Carley had a matching pearl necklace.

Though not fetching high prices, they were stylish.

Hearing that these two women hadn't auctioned anything valuable, Jocelyn sneered. "Bring out my pearl crown for auction."

The maid quickly complied. "Yes, Miss."

The pearl crown was a limited edition and far more valuable than Sylvia's and Carley's items.

Jocelyn always had to outshine them.

If she once only hated Carley, now she hated Sylvia too.

Anyone prettier than her was an enemy!

Sylvia was just trash from a small place like H Rovirsa. How dare she attend a Sweeney family event?

She didn't deserve it!

Most infuriatingly, she was so beautiful, like a vixen.

Thinking of Sylvia's radiant face made Jocelyn want to peel it off and stick it onto her own.

The Sweeney family auction proceeded smoothly.

Sylvia and Carley attracted much attention with their exceptional beauty, especially Sylvia.

As a new face, many inquired about her. Upon learning she was the Hipps family's newly found true daughter, people couldn't help but sigh.

Some young men tried to approach her, but Sylvia remained aloof.

"Oh my, Miss Andrews, you're quite popular," Carley teased with a smile.

Sylvia glanced at her sideways. "Jealous? I can make you a charm for attracting love."

Carley recoiled in mock horror. "No thanks! I don't want it!"

"Then why tease me?" Sylvia's red lips curved into a stunning smile.

Several wealthy women who had

shopped with them yesterday recognized Sylvia as Designer X and wanted to befriend her but felt too

shy to approach directly. They turned to Mrs. Kaur and Nola

instead.

Though Mrs. Kaur and Nola had been embarrassed by Sylvia and Carley yesterday, they still knew Carley.

"Mrs. Kaur, how is Miss Carley's face?" one wealthy woman asked pointedly.

"Indeed!" Mrs. Kaur replied with a forced smile.

"We haven't congratulated her yet! Could you introduce us?" another wealthy woman suggested.

Mrs. Kaur had thought they wanted to befriend her but realized they were interested in Carley instead. Her expression soured slightly.

As a second wife looked down upon by others, she often felt unhappy.

But refusing in front of so many people would make her seem like a bad stepmother.

So she suppressed her disgust and reluctance. "Sure!"

Soon... Sylvia and Carley saw Mrs. Kaur leading a group of wealthy women toward them like an entourage.

"Carley, Miss Andrews, you two are like sisters lighting up the entire hall!" one wealthy woman flattered them skillfully.

Her son had just taken over the family business; befriending or marrying either girl would elevate their status significantly.

"Indeed! So beautiful! Youth is

wonderful!" another wealthy woman

chimed in eagerly. This was the Hipps family's daughter and a designer with status in the fashion

world! They had to make connections!

They couldn't let others steal this opportunity!
