Chapter 129 Betrayal
When Natalie arrived, Haylie was sitting on the hospital bed in a daze.
Natalie didn't know what she was thinking because she was emotionless.
Sitting opposite her, Natalie said, "The test results proved it is the necklace that caused the allergy.
Since you are allergic to metal, do not wear any jewelry. And you will recover soon."
Haylie frowned, "I don't understand. There is a purchase record at the counter. How did the necklace
become a fake? Where is the genuine one?"
The necklace was T-smile, the most popular sterling silver jewelry this year.
Natalie didn't answer her question but had her speculation. Haylie's boyfriend had either sold the
genuine necklace or given it to someone else.
Haylie took the necklace out of the bag, put it in her palm, and looked at it.
The longer she stared at it, the more fake it looked!
Once a woman had doubts, she would instantly become Sherlock Holmes who had a keen eye and
clear mind.
She carefully recalled with a frown and finally remembered one thing.
Her boyfriend Dillan's assistant Gloria had praised her beautiful necklace not long ago and said she
had bought one for herself.
Haylie had been unhappy to hear her words then because she could not understand why she had
bought the same one and had suspected Gloria was intentionally irritating her.
What had Dillan said?
He had said it was because Haylie had brought out the necklace's value and beauty that Gloria had
bought the same one. It was a compliment to her taste. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Haylie had thought his words made sense despite the weird feeling in her heart. Now, she quickly
watched the replay of Dillan's live broadcast. Sure enough, when the camera switched to Gloria, she
saw the same necklace around her neck.
Haylie believed her boyfriend had cheated on her, so she abruptly stood up and walked outward.
Natalie asked, "Where are you going?"
"I will go to settle accounts with him!"
"Are you meeting him like this?"
She had not washed her face or put on makeup. Her hair was messy, and her clothes were full of
wrinkles.
Haylie stopped her steps, turned to look at Natalie, and said, "I'll go home. Let's talk about the matter
later."
Natalie unhurriedly said, "The legal department of the Ramsey Group intends to sue you."
Haylie froze in place. Although she had deleted the tweet, the negative impact was irreversible.
Seeing her so frightened, Natalie continued, "But I stopped them."
Haylie breathed a sigh of relief, secretly blaming Natalie for stopping in mid-sentence.
She hesitated and asked, "What do you want?"
"Compared to what you want to do now, what I will say is crucial to your future."
Natalie tenderly looked at her and added, "You have lost your love."
Haylie had dated Dillan for three years, but he had sent her a fake and caused her to be hospitalized. It
was not a matter of love but an intentional injury to some extent.
"If you go to settle accounts with him now, you will also lose your career."
Natalie had kept her tone steady, but her words made Haylie's heart skip a beat.
She continued with a gentle smile, "Sit down. Let's talk."

Haylie was discharged from the hospital in the afternoon. Then, she posted a Vlog on Twitter. She said
she had almost recovered and figured out the allergen. It was her metal jewelry instead of lipstick. But
she didn't mention the necklace. Then, she solemnly apologized to Flower Face for the damage she
had caused to its brand image, saying she should not have rashly posted a complaint online before
finding out the real reason. She had also personally tried a few different shades of Flower Face's
lipsticks in the video.
However, not many netizens were discussing the follow-up of this matter. When spreading rumors, they
had excitedly joined in the fun. But few people were interested when the truth came out.
Some executives of the group were dissatisfied with the handling of this matter, thinking they should
not have easily let go of Haylie but should have sued her. After all, the Ramsey Group was not easy to
mess with. Their legal department had been invincible in recent years, and the winning rate of the
lawsuits was as high as 99%.
But Kendrick bore all the pressure for Natalie.
Two days later, Haylie suddenly posted a selfie with glamorous makeup on Twitter. Her delicate lip and
eye makeup made her look like a black-hearted queen.
She usually shared sweet and popular daily makeup tutorials with her followers, but they still thought it
was a preview of the new makeup tutorial.
But she posted a long tweet at ten in the evening, saying she had broken up with her boyfriend
because he cheated on her. They had dated for three years and had even talked about getting married,
but he had two-timed her.
After Haylie had left the hospital, she had never mentioned the allergy to the necklace in front of her
boyfriend. She had endured the disgust, made him relax his vigilance, and slowly collected evidence.
First, she found he and Gloria had played phone games together at night. Then, she found out he had
transferred money to her several times. Finally, she checked his travel records and discovered he had
taken a taxi from the studio to a hotel three months ago. Although he had deleted all their chat history,
she had still gotten many clues.
There would always be evidence left when men cheated on women.
When Dillan had told her he would not go home tonight because of product selection, she had instantly
guessed he going to date Gloria. So, she had dressed herself up, put on extremely aggressive
makeup, and went to the hotel to catch them red-handed.
--
This matter quickly became a trending topic.
Dillan had become a well-known parasite. While making use of Haylie's fame and resources to make
money, he was sleeping with his female assistant.
He had sent Haylie a fake necklace and caused her to be hospitalized, but he had never gone to the
hospital to visit her and had even sent the real necklace to his lover.
Natalie did not have time to join the discussion online because she must make use of this opportunity
to market Flower Face's lipstick.
#Flower Face Cinnabar# also became a trending topic because Haylie had worn it when catching her
ex cheating on her. Flower Face Cinnabar was a retro dark red, making her look like a Queen.
When a netizen had recognized the shade of the lipstick, Haylie had given her a thumbs up.
Natalie called Sadie and said, "Continue to launch the advertisement. Ask all our cooperating beauty
bloggers to promote our products now. Ask Nia to review the drafts."
Sadie was so excited that her voice trembled when she said, "The search index is soaring! It is natural
traffic! And the number of readings on the topic has exceeded one hundred million."
Natalie calmly said, "Go for it!"

At two in the morning, the number of comments under Haylie's tweet had exceeded one hundred
thousand.
Many girls with tender hearts and many people who had been hurt in love had expressed their support
for her and applauded her decisiveness.
When a girl met a scumbag, she must break up with him in time no matter what he promised. A leopard
could not change its spots. Once he cheated, there would be countless cheats in the future. Moreover,
girls could still lead a good life without men.
Reading the comments, Natalie had mixed feelings.
Kendrick loved only her now. But what would happen in the future?
After he recovered and stood up, he would attract countless women because of his superior condition.
Would he still love her then?
Natalie rubbed her temples with both hands. She dared to give up everything else for love. And she
believed she also had the sobriety to decently leave when his love dissipated.
But she was willing to believe Kendrick would never disappoint her. People should not betray those
who loved them.
