Chapter 410
Chapter 410:
He pulled it out. Eugene was calling.
Eugene wouldn’t call now unless it was urgent.
Under Derek’s glare, Brandon answered. This text is hosted at.net
“Mr. Watson,” Eugene said. “Something’s happened. Just now, online news confirmed that the owner of the tanzanite from the charity auction… is Mrs. Watson.”
“The full details are online. You can check it out—I’ve sent the link,” Eugene said calmly.
Derek, on the other hand, still looked furious and struck Brandon with his cane a few more times.
But Brandon didn’t react. It was as if he felt no pain at all. He simply ended the call and opened the link Eugene had sent.
Just ten minutes earlier, a rumor had begun picking up momentum—Vivian had joined the charity gala to support sick children, while Millie had shown up only to make trouble.
Vivian’s PR team, led by Johnny, was fanning the flames.
They started by pushing the narrative about the tanzanite’s mediocre value.
“The tanzanite was valued at around one million. Usually, it wouldn’t go beyond 1.2 million, even in a charity auction. Vivian made a reasonable bid. But Millie kept raising it, forcing the price up.”
“Exactly. If Millie really wanted it, she would’ve started bidding from the start. It’s obvious she only did it because Vivian wanted it.”
“Vivian’s goal was to raise awareness for children in need. Millie? She just wanted to ruin it.”
Millie had made no response so far. And to Vivian, that silence was victory.
Once, people had called Vivian the real fraud, but now, her team had turned the story around. “She wanted to do charity work, and she did. It was Millie who kept pushing. Vivian had no choice but to give up.” Now, the blame sat squarely on Millie’s shoulders.
Everyone in the lounge was stunned.

“Vivian’s team really knows how to spin a story. I wonder where she found people like that,” Barbara said.
Charles nodded. “I still remember that one post boasting about her kindness and everything. That one really worked. People ate it up.”
Millie also nodded.
She had always known how good Vivian’s PR team was at shaping the narrative.
And sadly, she’d been one of their targets.
After a moment’s thought, Millie said, “We’re ready. Let’s begin.”
Charles nodded and sent a message to Seville and the others in the group chat.
Then, out of nowhere, two statements appeared online.
The first was posted by Evans Entertainment’s official account.
It read, “First, identity confirmation—Serena is Millie. This arrangement is backed by a confidentiality agreement. Second, because of that same agreement, Millie’s identity had to be kept secret during the auction. Third, the original owner and donor of the tanzanite at the charity auction was Millie, though this was hidden due to the first two reasons.” Evidence was attached.
