StarNovelChapter 1081 However, Heather just gave him a contemptuous look with a mocking smile hanging from her lips. Although she said nothing, it was a significant blow to Ralph. Disbelief washed over him.
At this moment, he was more astonished than he was afraid of her. He grabbed her shoulders, holding them tightly. "Don't go! Explain what you said earlier! What do you mean by it's fake?” No one dared to do such a thing to Heather before this. She was taken aback for a moment before her expression turned dark, and she asked coldly. "What are you doing?” “Explain it to me! What did you say was fake? You've never seen the authentic handbook, so how could you say that the one | have is fake? You must be purposely deceivingso you can snatch the book away from me! You don't want to spend any money to get it, do you? “Pfft! Look at you callinggreedy when you're the genuinely greedy one! Heather Riggs, | had no idea you were so cunning when you appear to care about nothing in this world. A deal? You're just lying to me! "You've never thought about givingany reward in return for the secret handbook. You just said all those things so | could get this handbook for you, right?" This thought formed in Ralph's mind quickly, and he believed that his assumptions were correct. Otherwise, he could not understand why Heather would say that his secret handbook was fake when she had never seen it before.

He was confident that she was just lying to him! With that thought in mind, he becless agitated and calmed down gradually, loosening his grip on Heather's shoulders as well.
"Pfft. You're too naive! Do you think you can trickwith that?” Heather shrugged, finding it hilarious that he could confidently say those words as if he were right. "Whatever floats your boat!" Then she shook his hands off of her forcefully.
How could Ralph give up now? He stretched his hands forward, wanting to stop her again, but her cold voice sounded. "I'm warning you for the last time. Don't touch me!” "Okay fine, but explain things tofirst!" He pressed his back against the door instead to stop her from leaving.
He could not let her leave at this twhen he had not gotten the explanation he wanted.
Seeing him being so stubborn made her take a step back. Suddenly, she laughed.
"You're right. | lied to you!" Before he could smile in relief, she continued, "However, the secret handbook you have is truly the fake one. As for the real one, it's with me!" She grasped onto nothing in the air, but her eyes showed how happy she was to have the secret handbook in her possession.

"It's with you?” His voice raised in pitch suddenly, even slightly shrill to the ears. That was because her words were too ridiculous.
"You don't believe me, do you?” Heather had enough of playing around with him and wanted to leave.
She let out a breath and leaned on the wall, her arms crossed in front of her chest as she looked at him leisurely.
“Fine. | can tell you what this is all about. I've never wanted to cooperate with you, and | would never give you the shares of Riggs Group nor hand over my family's business to an outsider! “Ill never give away what belongs to my family to someone else regardless of my intention in managing the business. If the company were to crumble under my management, that would be my family's problem. It has absolutely nothing to do with you." "You!" Ralph was riled up.
