Chapter 1099: Chapter 1099: A Tough Nut to Crack
Charlotte listened from the side, suppressing the smile at the corners of her mouth.
She never knew Adam Ross could be so sharp-tongued.
"Yes, uncle, your eyesight must be failing you, might not recognize her, so let me properly introduce her."
Saying this, he walked over to Charlotte: "This lady is the eldest daughter of the BK Thompson Family, Charlotte Thompson, and of course, these two children also bear the Thompson surname."
"Miss Thompson?"
Ray Ross glanced at Charlotte. How could he not know these things, but the constant remarks about poor eyesight made his expression darken.
However, this time Ray didn’t speak. Instead, it was Oliver who stood next to him and glanced at Charlotte.
"So, it’s Miss Thompson’s son, eh? But when we were looking at their faces just now, we didn’t notice that the two kids resemble Miss Thompson. Rather, they look quite like my cousin, almost thought these two were my cousin’s children, bearing quite a resemblance to the Ross Family."
Oliver seemed to be deliberately talking about this, his voice not growing quieter but rather louder, drawing the attention of some people around.
Because of his words, many people began to size up Jack Thompson and Chad Thompson, and then looked at Adam.
This made Adam nervous; he couldn’t help but cast his gaze towards Charlotte.
But Charlotte remained indifferent, her gaze sweeping towards Oliver.
"It’s normal for there to be resemblances, but if we’re really talking about looking alike, it’s Mr. Oliver and Mr. Ross who look alike."
Charlotte snorted coldly, clearly not intending to mince words,
"But if you think about it carefully, if that incident back then hadn’t happened, Mr. Oliver’s children would probably be about this age now."
Before coming here, Charlotte had thoroughly investigated the Ross family. Oliver was completely a profligate, and the vile deeds he had done were inexhaustible.
"What are you babbling about!"
Others might be baffled by Charlotte’s words, but Oliver understood the hidden meaning and immediately turned pale.
Some secrets he had hidden so well, he thought they could never be uncovered.
But what Oliver didn’t realize was that Charlotte, standing before him, didn’t need to use the Thompson Family’s influence to dig up someone’s past,
After all, her brother is a top-tier hacker, who also personally taught her.
"Mr. Oliver, you know my profession as a designer requires me to interact frequently with magazines and newspapers, so sometimes I hear some gossip."
Charlotte spoke nonchalantly, but her gaze swept over a somewhat flustered Oliver,
"What I hear and see might vary, and whether I might talk about it isn’t certain, but one thing I am sure of is that I know far more than others."
Not only Oliver, but even Ray standing beside him wore a very ugly expression.
Ray stared at Charlotte; he had originally thought she was an easy target, an easy fruit to squash, but it turned out she was a tough nut to crack.
Ray then gave Oliver a look.
Immediately, Oliver chuckled, "Just joking earlier, since they are Miss Thompson’s children, how could they possibly look like the Ross Family?"
Charlotte watched as Oliver’s expression quickly changed, merely curling the corners of her lips.
At that moment, Charlotte felt a warm hand lay on her shoulder, followed by Justin Battleson’s deep voice rising above her head.
"Oh? I was away just for a moment, what interesting thing has happened?"
