Paula continued to explain that she was invited to the event. She explained repeatedly, but the people still didn't believe her. They kept asking her to leave. She was accused of being a beggar who had entered the wrong room."I told you, I was invited. I didn't lie with my words," Paula said in a frustrated tone. She had sweat on her forehead and a panicked look on her face. This was so embarrassing. Her previous sense of pride and confidence was gone.Some people in the crowd started whispering while looking at Paula sarcastically. "Look, she doesn't even know how to dress properly for this event," someone whispered condescendingly.Another chimed in, "She must be a misplaced beggar. There's no way someone like her would come and be invited here. It's impossible."Paula felt her face heat up with shame and anger. "No, I'm not a beggar. I was actually invited. Please, check the guest list if you don't believe me," she exclaimed, trying to hold back the tears and shame that kept welli
"Seriously, I'm Emily and Jane's friend. They invited me here," Paula said, trying to explain again earnestly.After hearing Paula's explanation, some people finally began to believe that Paula did have a relationship with Emily and Jane. But even so, they still didn't want her in their midst. Their social classes were different, and no one would accept Paula at a prestigious event like this."I remember now. She was a woman who often begged Emily and Jane. She often begged to be invited to gatherings like this. She was always like this and would humble herself to get an invitation," explained one of the socialites who suddenly remembered Paula.All eyes focused on Paula, and they nodded, looking at her with a more disgusted look than before. Hearing the person's words, Paula looked down in shame. She did ask to be invited to events a few times, but in her opinion, not to the extent of begging."You don't insult me," Paula complained, voice full of sadness and anger."Who insulted you
Paula felt her anger overflow uncontrollably. In an instant, her emotions peaked. She had held back her anger for too long, and now it was exploding. With steady steps and a trembling body, she moved toward the people who had insulted her friends, who should have defended and supported her."You've gone too far," her voice was loud, full of pain and anger. "I was invited here just to be humiliated? You are disgusting."Her eyes filled with tears of anger as she stared at Emily. Emily looked terrified. Her face paled as Paula approached. Quickly, Emily swallowed, her mouth trembling. "What are you going to do? Stay away from me," she tried to sound firm, but her voice shook.Paula could no longer contain the anger burning in her chest. Several people tried to stop her, but with a strong push from Paula, they were thrown back. Paula approached Emily with a cold, piercing gaze filled with deep hatred."What are you going to do?" someone shouted in the background, anxious and panicked.Wi
They were shocked by Carson's words and how he spoke, raising his tone. As people with high self-esteem, this treatment made them angry and upset. Their faces turned red, and their gazes were sharp and full of hatred for Carson."Who do you think you are, huh? How dare you yell at us," complained Emily, her voice trembling with anger. She stared at Carson with blazing eyes, full of challenge. Carson stood tall without showing the slightest fear, unfazed by their rage.Alison, on the other hand, looked agitated. She hugged her husband's hand tightly, her eyes flashing with worry. "Honey, stop! This could get us into even more trouble," Alison coaxed, pleading.Carson shook his head firmly. "No. They've insulted you, so they have to pay for what they've done," he said in a voice full of conviction."Please," Alison pleaded in a soft yet hopeful tone.Carson finally lowered his ego, swayed by Alison's plea. However, even though she softened, the situation remained the same. Emily and her
"You won't be able to help Paula. She has beaten us therefore she will be jailed on charges of attempted murder," Emily said with great confidence. The article on the crime of attempted murder can be given when the person has taken out a knife, and there is an intention to kill. Meanwhile, Paula only danced with Emily and other women's hair. At the roughest, she just slapped their faces. It was just violence. She will still get a sentence, but not as severe as an attempted murder. Although Paula had no intention of killing and did not hold a knife, all of that could be managed. Emily is a woman from a wealthy background. He has enough money to pay a well-known lawyer and can even bribe a judge to get a victory over the charges he made."My mother couldn't have done that. She couldn't possibly intend to kill someone else. She knows the law well," Alison said firmly, insisting on defending her mother.Of course, Alison's defense only invited cynical laughter from Emily and her friends
"Do you think pretending to call will scare me? Not at all, because no matter who you call. No one will be able to help you," Lawson said.Emily and the others laughed along. Emily and the others could mock Lawson, saying, "You only dare to threaten. You didn't actually do anything. You didn't call anyone. Even if there is, the lawyer must only be in the mediocre class. If you're brave, show your courage before us and bring your lawyer here." Emily challenged Carson.Hearing that, Carson just smiled a little. "He's already on his way. You just wait," he replied.A few minutes later, the door to the room opened, and a very authoritative man entered. Everyone, including Emily and Richard Lawson, was stunned by the man's presence. He wore a formal suit in an elegant style and had a strong aura of presence.The man approached Carson and extended his hand. "I am Prof. Nathaniel Blackwood. I am here to handle your case, Mr. Carson."The name Nathaniel immediately dumbfounded everyone. Natha
Paula was surprised by Carson's statement. She could make a big party for herself. She was pleased about that. She had already imagined how big she would be if this happened. Paula looked up at Carson."Carson, can you really throw me a party? I'm not sure, but if you prove it, I'll believe it," Paula said, her eyes sparkling with hope.Carson smiled warmly. "Of course. Instead of mom going to someone else's party and being insulted, we'd better make our own party," he replied.Paula envisioned her dream party, her mind full of details. "Oh, I've imagined many things. Maybe we can have an elegant theme, with beautiful decorations and delicious food. And, of course, I want a very fancy party.""It's up to you. I can organize it," Carson replied confidently.He spoke with confidence that whatever Paula wanted could be realized. For him, throwing a big party was not a tricky thing. In fact, he could invite important people and learn all kinds of luxuries without difficulty."Then, how ab
"Okay, I'll do that," Carson replied with confidence.Paula felt very happy and satisfied to hear Carson's agreement. However, Alison disagreed with the plan at all. She felt that such a lavish party was too much and worried that Carson would force himself to fulfill the demands, even if it meant going into debt to satisfy his mother's ego."I disagree. You can't have such a lavish party!" Alison shouted firmly, her voice full of emphasis.Alison walked over to Carson and Paula. She stood directly before Carson, looking at him with an annoyed gaze. She knew the risks and repercussions of Carson's decision very well, and she didn't want Carson to be trapped in a situation that could increase his financial burden just to fulfill a wish that he considered unnecessary."Anyway, you don't have to grant mom's request." Alison reiterated."I can do it. You don't have to worry." Carson tried to reassure Alison. "It won't add to the problem either. If it does, I can handle it."Alison still di
