Hazel Lewis Becomes the Laughingstock of the Entire Room

She remembered that when she first learned of Claire Bennett's existence, she had already investigated her. She clearly knew that Claire only had a seriously ill mother and no one else at all, so how could she possibly be the Bennett family's young heiress?

At that moment, the rich young women around them were also stunned, and some of them slowly began to realize what was going on.

Hazel Lewis had deliberately tried to put Claire Bennett down, but she hadn't expected Claire Bennett to actually be the Bennett family's young heiress, so now Hazel Lewis had become a joke.

"This is seriously ridiculous. Hazel Lewis wanted to expose Claire Bennett's background, but instead she tried to steal the chicken only to lose the rice, huh?"

"I went to the Bennett family's birthday banquet last time. Claire Bennett really is the Bennett family's young heiress."

"Exactly. Hazel Lewis is just some small-town nobody from Chicago, and she still has the nerve to talk about Claire Bennett? She's completely beneath Claire Bennett, isn't she?"

Claire Bennett knew how shocking her words would be to Hazel Lewis.

In the past, because of the situation between her mother and father, she had lived alone in Chicago, so no one knew her identity. But now things were different. Her relationship with Victor Bennett had eased quite a bit, and she had also gone back to work at Bennett Group.

Actually, saying it out loud today was also meant to take this opportunity to let everyone understand her identity.

Since that goody-goody Hazel Lewis wanted to make an issue out of this, she simply said it openly and boldly.

When Ruby Sterling saw the shock Claire Bennett had caused, she almost couldn't help clutching her stomach and laughing.

She looked at Hazel Lewis and said, "Hazel Lewis, you're being way too funny. Claire is the eldest young lady of the New York Bennett family, better than you by who knows how many times over. Where do you even get the nerve to laugh at her?"

Hazel Lewis's face went even paler, and she looked ready to collapse.

"Claire Bennett... is... is from the Bennett family..."

She could barely speak at all. The necklace allergy incident just now had already been humiliating enough, and now not only had she failed to expose Claire Bennett's identity, she had instead become the laughingstock of the entire room, which made her even more mortified.

She practically couldn't stay at the Sterling family's birthday banquet any longer.

Daniel Lewis was utterly stunned. No matter what, he had never imagined that the Claire Bennett they had looked down on actually had that kind of status.

Then how could Hazel Lewis possibly compare with Claire Bennett?

He turned to look at the old master of the Sterling family again and saw that his face was dark and displeased, which told him that he was extremely dissatisfied with Hazel Lewis. Most likely, at this birthday banquet, not only had Hazel Lewis failed to win their favor, she had instead made him dislike her.

Then did Hazel Lewis still have any chance of marrying Julian Sterling?

The rich young women around them looked at Hazel Lewis with displeasure and said bluntly, "Miss Lewis, you're way too vicious, aren't you? Claire Bennett is obviously the Bennett family's young heiress, yet you said she had no status at all."

"Seriously. You aren't jealous of Claire Bennett, are you?"

"Actually, Claire Bennett didn't do anything wrong. You were clearly the one who messed up and made Mrs. Monroe have an allergic reaction. Claire Bennett was just reminding you, that's all. She was helping you."

No one had been stirred up by Hazel Lewis, and instead they now saw her true character clearly, one after another taking Claire Bennett's side.

In an instant, Hazel Lewis became the laughingstock of the entire room!
