Chapter 1076
Originally, Trisha wanted to criticize him, saying, “You’re not my boyfriend!” But when she heard him mention his assets, her curiosity piqued, “How much?”
Nicolas shrugged, casually saying, “Around several billion dollars, I guess.”
“Oh,” Trisha responded unimpressed, “Decent enough.”
Nicolas shocked.
“Decent enough?”
She, an unemployed woman, faced with such fortune, could only say “decent enough“?
Had she grown so accustomed to poverty that she’d forgotten the value of money?
Just as he was about to explain the weight of his assets to Trisha, she said, ‘Compared to Liam, your assets are quite less.”
He explained, “I was referring to real estate and liquid assets, I didn’t count stocks and other investments.”
“So even with those, do you have as much as Liam?”
Nicolas fell silent, then braving himself to defend. “I’m self–made, Liam has the accumulated wealth of the Reed family.”
Trisha nodded, “So your family background isn’t as good as Liam’s, yet Liam is willing to be friends with you. He really is down–to–earth. I thought there was serious discrimination among the elite
Nicolas was speechless.
He was the guest here, why was it that Liam ended up being praised to the skies?
Turns out having a powerful friend isn’t always a good thing, especially when the person you like keeps comparing you to him.
Trisha quickly found the spots where the audio had been edited and spliced, added explanations, and sent the processed audio to her famous friends, hoping they’d help release it.
Her friends all made excuses, thinking that releasing such a video at this time would incur the wrath of netizens. They suggested waiting until the heat died down to release it
But Trisha believed that now was the perfect time to clear things up while the topic was hot. If they waited until the heat passed and netizens had already blamed Celeste, who would care about the clarification?
Trisha was anxious, trying to coax her friends.
Nicolas took her phone, and one by one, deleted those people from her friend list
Trisha instantly stood up, snatching her phone back and said angrily. “Why are you deleting my friends!”
Those people count as friends? Nicolas replied coldly, “Don’t they know when is the best time to clarify? Their constant evasion only means one thing, they have been bought off, so they’re unwilling to help you release the clarification video”
Stunned, Trisha said after a pause, “But I only know them. I don’t know who else to ask for help. I’ve helped them before, maybe they’ll soften up and be willing to help me.”
“Don’t expect sympathy from others. In front of money, sympathy is worthless.” Nicolas said as he gave her a contact number, “Add him, send him the video and any other clarification materials. He’ll help you.”
Trisha opened the contact card, seeing the person with a profile picture of a golden retriever holding a flower.
“Who is he?” she asked.
“Rory”
Trisha was surprised.
He was a ton ALLI
