"But even if we want to overturn this, it shouldn't be happening so quickly! According to the normal process... " Celeste's words were cut off by Darian. "Don't forget who she's backed by now!"
Celeste froze. It was Jeffrey!
The so-called normal timeline only applied to ordinary people.
"Alright, no matter what, once this news breaks, the Howard Family needs to put on a good front. We can't afford to offend the Gray Family over this, understand?" Darian instructed his daughter.
Celeste, nervously trimming her nails, felt like she might crush her phone out of frustration.
Just a while ago, she had publicly humiliated Rachel, spreading rumors that Rachel had been the cause of her sister's downfall.
Now, her father's words meant she would have to apologize to Rachel in front of everyone. To her, it felt like a slap in the face.
"Celeste, are you listening?" Darian's voice grew stern. "Don't drag the Howard Family into the mud. I want the Howard Family to thrive!"
