Chapter 735: Chapter 735: You’re Finished!
The host said many congratulatory words.
But Victor Hawthorne didn’t take in what was specifically said.
The only thing he was grateful for was that the host’s words diverted his uncle’s attention, allowing him to catch his breath.
At this time, after saying a bunch of congratulatory words, the host began to invite relevant personnel to join the casino’s opening ceremony on stage.
"Now, let’s welcome our July Quinn, Miss Quinn, the sole investor of The Sovereign Court Casino, along with our casino manager Rhonda Hale, Miss Hale, and Mr. Desmond Chase..."
Many people walked up to the stage one after another.
At that moment, reporters readied their cameras with all their might, aiming at the people on the stage.
The lighting in the whole area instantly dimmed, focusing the spotlight on those on stage.
The first to appear was July Quinn.
Under the spotlight, her golden gown radiated dazzling brilliance.
And her inherently beautiful face, complemented by exquisite makeup, radiated with myriad charms, moving beyond the ordinary.
So much so that Rhonda Hale, who followed closely behind her, seemed to lose all her shine in an instant.
This effect was worlds apart from Rhonda Hale’s expectation.
After all, in her mind, the one standing loftily above everyone else at the opening ceremony should have been herself.
But right now, that person turned out to be July Quinn, while she herself became one of those gazed upon by July Quinn.
The gap was not just vast; Rhonda Hale, though disappointed, did not forget to search for her father’s figure among the audience, longing for some solace from him.
Unexpectedly, instead of finding solace, her father seemed to stir up frantic panic and extreme unease.
Indeed, when Rhonda Hale looked at Simon Hale below the stage, she saw him staring at July Quinn on the stage with a look of astonishment, his pupils dilated, in extreme fear, as if seeing a ghost.
"What’s going on?"
Rhonda Hale murmured in confusion.
In her impression, her father always remained composed, being equipped with top-notch medical skills, no matter what happened.
Especially on important occasions, he would always strive to maintain the demeanor and grace expected of a physician.
But today...
What kind of situation made her father disregard all this?
Though she was puzzled, nothing seemed more important than ensuring the opening ceremony went smoothly.
So she decided to wait until all matters were handled before stepping off to ask Simon Hale what had happened.
Rhonda Hale continued busying herself by greeting others, preparing to initiate the ceremony as instructed, while Simon Hale below was already panicking to the point where his limbs felt icy cold.
July Quinn!
The person who invested in constructing The Sovereign Court Casino turned out to be July Quinn!
This was certainly not a coincidence.
Suddenly, Simon Hale recalled when July Quinn had previously sent him to prison, saying, "This is just the beginning..."
Yes!
This must be a scheme set by July Quinn to destroy the Hale Family and help the Monroe Family reclaim everything.
His Rhonda had fallen for it!
In his extreme anxiety, Simon Hale saw July Quinn on the stage suddenly let her gaze fall upon him.
Perhaps it was due to the spotlight, but July Quinn’s eyes seemed particularly pure, like an elf untouched by worldly matters.
Then, her red lips moved as if she was saying something.
But Simon Hale, who was being stared at, felt his goosebumps drop all over and broke out in cold sweat.
Because he understood July Quinn’s silent words, "Good riddance, your Hale Family is finished!"
No...
Simon Hale hurried to get on stage to find Rhonda, to expose July Quinn’s true colors.
But the staff stopped him: "Sorry, Mr. Hale, if there’s anything important, please wait until after the initiation ceremony to say it."
