Reborn as Mr.CEO's Fat Wife

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: The Humiliation from Clark Stone

Lily was an internet celebrity, but as a fitness blogger, she was quite niche.

Yet no matter how niche an internet celebrity was, once entangled in a scandal, the attention would skyrocket. With Ruby Green’s covert assistance, it didn’t take long for her to climb the trending boards.

Ruby’s intention was to tarnish Abigail Green’s reputation. Even dead, she wanted Abigail to be infamous. This way, even if in the future the Piers family discovered she wasn’t George Piers’s mother, they wouldn’t tolerate having such a notorious home-wrecker mother. Being fat and ugly was one thing, but being malicious added another layer. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She wanted not only Abigail dead but also to ensure that Abigail would leave no worries behind after her death.

After browsing the trending topics, Ruby put away her phone. A message popped up, “Final payment.”

A glint of crazed excitement flashed in her eyes. Earlier, Ruby’s speculation couldn’t compare to the reality of the other party asking her for the final payment.

Hiding her joy, she appeared to be fiddling with her phone. Taking advantage of Mona Wilde and the others’ anxiety, she removed the phone card. Then she approached Mona apologetically, saying, “Lily, the engagement ceremony is about to start. I can’t keep Master Brandon waiting. You take care of things here. If there’s any trouble, be sure to let me know.”

Before Mona could respond, Ruby hurried off to catch the elevator.

Mona and her sister subconsciously wanted to call Ruby back, still hoping for her help, but Ruby had already entered the elevator. At that moment, Clark Stone emerged from another elevator.

“Mas… Master Stone…” Mona took a step back with a guilty conscience. Last night, using Clark’s engagement today as an excuse, she had organized a wild party, clinging to him until midnight and secretly turning off his phone in the morning. This was all to publicly humiliate Abigail Green today. She hadn’t anticipated the chaos, vaguely hearing that someone died downstairs.

Smack!

Clark delivered a slap across Mona’s face.

Mona failed to dodge, the slap landed solidly, and half her face instantly swelled red. She gritted her teeth, glaring at the man who had been entwined with her last night, “Master Stone, you…”

“Lily, we’re all here to have fun. There’s no need to make such a mess. While I don’t care for Abigail Green, I won’t allow you to humiliate her at the engagement party.” Clark didn’t care about Abigail, but today’s incident had become widely known. His reputation took a back seat; if the Piers family despised him, it would not be worth the loss.

Moreover, Clark knew very well that Abigail, despite her weight, held significant sway with the Piers patriarch. Her engagement with Brandon at Brandon Manor today was heavily influenced by that.

Thus, he rushed over as soon as he saw the trending topics.

Mona knew that Clark was a businessman, focused on profit, but she never expected him to hit her publicly. Last night, in the throes of passion, he even said he would marry her if it weren’t for trying to connect with the Piers family.

Tears welled up in her eyes. Covering half her face, she felt both humiliated and resentful.

Monica Wilde couldn’t stand it, confronting Clark, “Master Stone, what does this mean? Hitting my sister for that fat chick? Don’t you know how much she likes you?”

“Likes me?” Clark sounded as if he’d heard a joke, his gaze falling on Mona. “I thought everyone should have the self-discipline not to bother each other after getting out of bed.”

Dressed in a branded suit for his engagement today, Clark’s hair was slicked back with shiny pomade. He delivered his lines without a hint of shame, epitomizing the term “pervert.”

Mona, pointing at him in embarrassment, stammered, “You… you…” She had long known he wasn’t decent, but her greed got the better of her, and now she was humiliated.

Clark looked at her with disdain, took out a wad of cash, “Get out.”

Monica’s eyes reddened, glaring at Master Hudson who stood by unsure of whom to help. She grabbed Mona, “Sis, let’s go!”

Right then, the elevator opened again, and two police officers stepped out, “Excuse me, who is Ms. Mona Wilde?”
