Chapter 58
Genevieve averted her gaze, feeling exasperated as she went to eat.
Louis paused for a moment. Then, he nodded politely and said, “Okay!”
Watching Louis and Samantha leave, Genevieve took a seat nearby.
Most of the guests at the charity dinner worked in the entertainment industry.
Soon, a few minor celebrities came over and took some seats around Genevieve.
One of them said, “Ms. Lawrence, I heard that you are good at seducing men. Can you teach us how?”
Another asked, “Ms. Lawrence, is it true that Mr. Hoffman didn’t want you because you were having an affair?”
Yet another asked, “How much did you donate? Don’t tell me you’re so stingy that you refused to donate even a penny, and you’re here just to get attention.”
As they spoke, they put their hands to their mouths and laughed.
Genevieve glanced at them, her gaze flickering a little. She didn’t feel like hanging around, so she stood up.
Thinking that she was leaving, one of them grabbed her by the wrist.
The woman said, “Don’t go, Ms. Lawrence. You haven’t said anything. Are you feeling guilty now?”
Another one said, “That’s right. Why are you putting on a lofty act? Do you think we’re as gullible as those people on the
internet?”
They mocked Genevieve as they liked, and they had no fear at all.
Genevieve raised her gaze coldly and glanced at Regina, who was standing nearby and watching them in amusement
Genevieve immediately realized that Regina was the one who sent these people here to cause trouble.
Shaking off the woman who had grabbed her, Genevieve said in a cold voice, “Who do you think you are? Did you think I would talk to the likes of you?”
The woman was stunned for a moment. Then, she laughed unscrupulously.
She said, “Ms. Lawrence, were our guesses spot on? Is that why you’re angry now?”
Their laughter drew more attention to them.
The crowd looked on.
The women even tried to tear Genevieve’s clothes, but before they could touch her collar, she slapped them in the face.
Then, one of them screamed.
Genevieve didn’t hold back, either. She gripped the hair of the woman who had grabbed her wrist and threw the latter’s

head back. The woman had a shocked look on her face.
Intending to save the woman, one of them tried to scratch Genevieve in the face.
However, before she could throw herself at Genevieve, the latter kicked her onto the couch.
Everyone was shocked as they watched the events unfold. Genevieve’s movements were merciless and prompt.
Genevieve looked indifferent, and her tone was clear and cold as she said, “I can’t even be bothered to kill you, seriously think you’re something?”
There were no reporters at the banquet, but it didn’t mean that everything that had happened at the banquet
a secret.
and you
would remain
Genevieve looked coldly at Regina, who had a shocked look on her face.
Then, she shouted, “Call the guards in! Get this crazy woman out of here!”
Of course, the security guards wouldn’t just come in and drive away a guest at the party.
So, after Genevieve shouted, no one did anything at all.
Genevieve grabbed one of the women and then walked up to Regina. She tossed the woman at Regina.
Regina and the woman rammed into each other. Then, Regina grew furious. As if she had the moral high ground, she deliberately raised her voice to accuse Genevieve.
Regina said, “Ms. Lawrence, how could you be so violent? How could you abuse your power to bully our newcomers? Everyone, look! Genevieve bullies and insults people just because she is the director of Eagle Entertainment. It’s too much!”
Genevieve sneered. Her gaze flickered as if she had seen someone. Then, she crossed her arms and looked at Regina.
She asked, “They all work for Mr. Hopkins‘ company, so what does this mean? Are you the female owner of Mr. Hopkins‘ company now?”
Regina raised her chin proudly and snorted. “I guess I am, in a way. So you’d better not offend me. Thomas is so devoted to me that when I said I wanted a bracelet, he paid 1.8 million dollars to get one for me. Who do you think you are? Do you think I am as vulnerable as my cousin?”
Genevieve chuckled. “I can see that you’re just like Rosalie. Both of you love being homewreckers, don’t you?”
Regina’s expression was slightly stiff as she gritted her teeth.
She said, “What’s wrong with being a homewrecker? You have to be capable of doing it. Some women can even lose their husbands, which means that they are useless. I’ve been with Thomas for so many years, and the entirety of Royal Entertainment belongs to me. His damned wife should be kicked out just like you….
Before Regina could finish talking, a bottle of wine was splashed on her face. Then, someone grabbed her hair and kicked her to the ground. The kicks kept coming.
When the assaulter was tired of kicking, they switched to slapping.

Everyone watched the scene, but no one rushed forward to stop them.
They recognized the assaulter. She was Thomas‘ wife, who co–founded Royal Entertainment with him. But she had left the front lines for the sake of her family, and she hadn’t appeared in public for a long time.
“Ah! Help!” Regina shouted and cried miserably. Her arrogance from before had long disappeared.
Thomas stood at the side. He didn’t dare to stop his wife, but he also felt sorry for Regina, who was beaten.
He stood there with a pale face. He was at a loss and didn’t dare take responsibility.
In the end, fearing that someone might get killed, the organizers sent some people to break the two up.
By then, Regina’s face was bruised and swollen. Two of her teeth had fallen out, and her hair was all over the place. She
looked like a mess.
Thomas‘ wife, Olivia Hopkins, stood up with a cold expression. Shaking off the hands that held her, she glanced at Regina on the ground, and then at Thomas.
She asked, “Thomas, is she the female owner of Royal Entertainment?”
Her voice was threatening and indifferent.
Usually, Thomas was gentle and considerate to her. They also looked like a loving couple.
She had given up her career for the sake of their family.
However, now that Olivia had witnessed such a scene, where another woman had gotten intimate with Thomas and boldly claimed that she was the female owner of the company, it felt like Olivia’s understanding and dedication for the first half of her life was all for nothing.
Thomas was stunned for a moment. He was shocked as he hastily said, “Of course not. It’s you!”
Regina froze for a moment. She couldn’t be bothered by her disgrace as she scrambled up from the ground and asked, “Thomas, didn’t you say that you were going to divorce her? Didn’t you say that you have no feelings for this old hag anymore?”
She didn’t care if she got beaten. Most importantly, she had a firm grip on the man’s heart.
Thomas‘ expression changed. Pointing at her, he scolded, “Quit that nonsense! I have nothing to do with you, and I never said those things. My wife and I will never divorce!”
At the side, Genevieve looked on coldly, feeling gleeful.
Olivia snorted coldly and turned around to leave. Thomas immediately followed suit.
Regina stood there, ashamed and trembling uncontrollably.
The women around her, who had stood up for her before, didn’t dare to step up again.
Now that the official Mrs. Hopkins, Olivia, was here, no one would dare to take the wrong side.
Genevieve walked over to Regina and looked down at her. There was disdain in her eyes.

She said, “You’re quite unlucky to have encountered someone you shouldn’t mess with. You’re done for, Ms. Stewart.”
She raised her eyebrows. Then, she walked away.
Louis was originally standing nearby, talking to Samantha. Samantha was quite pleased with Louis.
She had intended to defend her daughter, but Louis stopped her. He said that something interesting was coming up, and Genevieve would never be bullied.
Then, she watched this scene unfold.
Louis had already known that Olivia would be here.
Genevieve walked up to Louis and glanced at him.
She asked, “Did you ask Mrs. Hopkins to come here?”
