All Chapters of I Dumped My Cheating Fiancé and Married His Uncle: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Soon afterward, Navia finished her peppermint tea and felt much more alert.Inside the conference room, she spoke calmly.“Let’s keep today’s meeting under ten minutes.”“We’ll move quickly.”“Department heads, begin your reports.”Fortunately, the people working under her were competent.Some were her own trusted promotions.Others were talented professionals personally recruited by Joanna.Everything proceeded smoothly and efficiently.Navia listened attentively—Until suddenly, chaos erupted outside.“General Manager! Secretary Quinn! Something terrible happened!”The conference room doors burst open.Seeing the employee’s panicked expression, Navia frowned.“What happened?”“The gown… the gown…”The employee was trembling too badly to finish a sentence.Navia’s expressi

No wonder everyone at the station had been so polite.No interrogation.No pressure.They had even arranged for her to wait comfortably in the back courtyard.Even Jason had driven directly into the rear entrance without obstruction.Normally, there should’ve been officers and staff constantly passing through the area.Yet now, the place was completely empty.Well…Aside from Jason hiding inside the car.Navia nearly drifted off in thought again, but the dangerous look in Leonel’s eyes quickly pulled her back.She narrowed her gaze.“Exactly how many people have you planted around me?”This man knew everything she did almost instantly and had even prepared everything ahead of time.If that wasn’t surveillance, what was?Leonel had long known Navia wasn’t stupid.Sooner or later, she would figure it out.Besides…He never really intended to hide it fo

By the time they returned to Hillside Villa, Navia headed straight upstairs.She didn't even glance back.As for Leonel?For the moment, he might as well have been invisible.Jason, meanwhile, was completely unfazed.The fresh bite mark on Leonel's lip was impossible to miss.Anyone with half a brain could guess how the ride home had gone.Navia disappeared into the bedroom.Leonel stopped outside the doorway.For a man who intimidated boardrooms, politicians, and rival executives alike, he looked strangely reluctant to cross the threshold.He wanted to follow her inside.He also suspected she'd throw him right back out.So for once, Leonel Crawford hesitated.A few seconds later, Navia turned around.Seeing him still standing there, she frowned."What are you doing?"Leonel lifted an eyebrow."I thought you were ignoring me."Navia nearly rolled her eyes.

Navia arched an eyebrow.So asking for a Sprite or a Coke counted as causing trouble now?Interesting.Because from where she was standing, the people actively looking for trouble were the ones gathered right in front of her.She took a sip of her drink before replying."This is supposed to be one of the most exclusive hotels in the country, right?"Her gaze drifted lazily over the group."Funny. I would've expected better security."A few confused looks appeared.Navia smiled."Events like this are usually invitation-only."She tilted her head."So why am I suddenly surrounded by people acting like they escaped from a reality TV reunion?"The women behind Linda immediately lost their composure."Excuse me?!""Navia Harrison, what exactly is that supposed to mean?""Unbelievable. Do you have any manners at all?"Several nearby guests turned toward the commotion.Others pretended not to watch wh

There was an old saying:To destroy someone, first destroy their pride.Navia’s slap had already humiliated Linda thoroughly.How was she supposed to continue attending the gala with half her face swollen like this?And now—Navia wanted to pull up the surveillance footage too.Wasn’t she deliberately trying to blow the situation up completely?Linda knew perfectly well the cameras would absolutely show Navia hitting her.But tonight was Chairman Crawford’s birthday gala.Events like this symbolized luck and prosperity.The old chairman hated public conflict during important celebrations.And Navia clearly understood one thing—Linda’s current status was fragile.Tonight was the first time the Crawford family had publicly acknowledged her by allowing her to attend the gala beside Liam.But if she caused a massive scandal at the event and upset Chairman Crawford?Then her po
