Chapter 73
President Sterling Is Really Pitiful
"Isn't this kind of bad?" Naomi Pierce held her phone in her hand. Even though she sounded hesitant, she added, "They sent it to me, and it hasn't even finished downloading yet."
At that moment, as if responding to Naomi Pierce's words, her phone gave a "ding."
A trace of barely noticeable excitement flashed through Naomi Pierce's eyes, and her mood instantly surged.
Meng Lifen snatched Naomi Pierce's phone away and said righteously, "Since you can't bring yourself to do it, then I'll announce it for you!"
After saying that, she handed the phone to a servant nearby and told the servant to project the video onto the big screen.
The servant didn't dare delay and immediately took the phone and hurried off.
"Oh, you all..." Naomi Pierce pretended to stop them, but could only watch helplessly as the servant left. She then turned to Claire Bennett with fake apology and said hypocritically, "Claire, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to expose your dirty laundry either. I hope you won't blame me."
Hearing that, Claire Bennett felt as though something was going on that she didn't know about.
Could the video Naomi Pierce was talking about be her own?
At that point, Claire Bennett wasn't anxious anymore. She wanted to see exactly what Naomi Pierce was relying on.
At this time, Luna Brooks wasn't idle either. She deliberately raised her voice and exclaimed loudly, "Oh my God! Claire Bennett actually dared to cheat on Mr. Sterling and sleep with a manager from Sterling International? That's shameless!"
"They even dug up the video. Mr. Sterling really is pitiful!"
The two of them played off each other, and all the guests around them heard what they were saying.
The atmosphere at the scene instantly turned rigid.
The people standing beside Julian Sterling immediately looked at one another. They hadn't expected such explosive news—had Julian Sterling really been cuckolded?
The crowd around them instantly erupted, and the guests all around began discussing it heatedly.
"No way? Mr. Sterling got cheated on? That's insane. Is it real or not?"
"It should be real, right? Didn't they just say there's a video?"
"Claire Bennett is really screwed. Mr. Sterling will probably dump her on the spot, right?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, Claire Bennett probably never expected her filthy past to be dug up. I wonder how she's going to face this?"
Claire Bennett suddenly thought of something and looked toward Julian Sterling.
That day Julian Sterling had said he would deal with Kevin Parker, but she never asked exactly how. She had assumed Julian Sterling had sent Kevin Parker to prison.
Could it be that he had secretly done something behind the scenes?
Julian Sterling stood with one hand in his pocket, calm and unruffled. He looked at Claire Bennett and gave her a reassuring look, telling her not to worry.
When Claire Bennett saw his expression, her heart suddenly settled back into place.
She believed Julian Sterling.
Hearing the hushed discussion around her, Naomi Pierce felt immensely pleased, and a triumphant smile curled her lips.
Claire Bennett, just wait to be utterly ruined!
As soon as her words fell, the giant screen in the center of the banquet hall lit up...
The video appeared through the hotel's surveillance footage, and Naomi Pierce watched it together with everyone else, smiling.
At first she was beside herself with smug delight, but little by little, she could no longer smile.
Very quickly, Naomi Pierce's smile froze on her face. Terror gradually filled her eyes, and in the end she screamed like she'd gone mad, "Turn it off! Hurry up and turn that thing off!"
The video playing was not footage of Claire Bennett being forced by Kevin Parker, but explosive footage of Naomi Pierce pinned beneath Kevin Parker, along with all her painstaking efforts to please him and get him to agree to go after Claire Bennett.
The video had no sound at all, but it was obvious that she was the eager one!
When everyone saw Naomi Pierce appear in the video, the whole room exploded!
Everyone's eyes went wide. The scene in the video was too graphic to look at, and all of them were so shocked they couldn't speak.
Luna Brooks and Meng Lifen had been waiting to mock Claire Bennett, but the moment they glanced at the giant screen, they were completely stunned!
The footage being played actually wasn't Claire Bennett??
This... how had it turned into Naomi Pierce?
At this moment, Ethan Sterling and Tanya Sterling, who had been waiting by the entrance for the Bennett family to arrive, heard the uproar inside and realized something had happened, so they hurried back in.
To their surprise, the moment Ethan Sterling walked in, he saw Naomi Pierce riding Kevin Parker boldly and wantonly, writhing on top of him.
His shock was beyond description. His blood pressure shot through the roof, and his whole body was filled with the fury of betrayal!
How dare Naomi Pierce!
That bitch actually dared to do this behind his back!
He could clearly see that the Naomi Pierce in the video had a red birthmark on her chest. The woman in the footage was unquestionably Naomi Pierce.
The deathly silent banquet hall suddenly blew up, and the noise of the discussion nearly lifted the roof off the manor castle.
"M-my God!"
"Holy shit! What did I just see? So it wasn't Mr. Sterling getting cheated on—it was Manager Sterling getting cheated on?"
"That's disgusting. Naomi Pierce is seriously shameless. She even used her mouth!"
"Who was it just now saying Claire Bennett was cheating and Mr. Sterling got cuckolded? It was obviously Naomi Pierce!"
By now, Naomi Pierce had completely broken down. She felt as if all the blood in her body had stopped flowing, and she had no idea how to react at all.
How could this happen?
She had actually forgotten to have someone turn off the giant screen, and just let the video play all the way through, exposing everything between her and Kevin Parker in front of everyone!
