Chapter44
“Cristina!”
Reece couldn’t bear it any longer and shouted out in anger.
The fact that Julissa lied about being pregnant, even though she was wrong. is not something to talk about now.
From the beginning of the family banquet, James had been standing at the door. When Julissa was being beaten, he mustered up the courage to go in, but Reece spoke first.
But now, hearing Cristina repeatedly targeting Julissa, as if wanting to use this matter to make her feel unwelcome, James couldn’t help it
anymore.
He ran into the house.
“With a thud,” he knelt in front of Dillan.
Admitted that all of this was done by oneself.
Everyone was shocked, a brief silence in the room, but with the suppressed emotions about to erupt.
“James.”
Reece coldly said, “You don’t have to take the blame for her.”
James knelt on the ground, shame and self–blame making his voice tremble heavily.
“I still have the manuscript of that story on my phone, everything was made up by me. I originally wanted to help the Diaz Group get through

the crisis, and also wanted to make Mr. Diaz less indifferent to Ms. Rivera. But I didn’t expect things to happen so quickly, beyond my expectations and control.”
At this moment, he only regretted that he had harmed Julissa.
No matter what punishment he had to endure, he was willing.
James‘ words left everyone stunned in place.
Cristina naturally refused to believe it, such a great opportunity, she really couldn’t accept it!
“James, do you know how many punishments you will receive for saying these words? You don’t have to let yourself suffer so much just because of your soft heart…”
“It was me.”
No matter how many times he was asked, James would not evade.
“James!”
Cristina was clearly agitated, but before she could say anything else, she was stopped by Reece.
Dillan slowly stood up from the chair and looked at his confused grandson, feeling frustrated.
“I’ll give you one more chance to get rid of this woman,” Dillan said. Although he was no longer emotional at the moment, his chilling aura was still calm and piercing.
Continuing to persevere, no one dared to guess what Dillan would do.
“Cristina,” Reece could only say, “you go back first.”
Cristina grabbed Reece’s sleeve, her eyes pleading.
But at that moment, Reece’s eyes couldn’t help but fall on Julissa not far away.
Her hands were swollen and red, sitting alone on the side in
loneliness, her thin and lonely figure shrouded in shadows, as if the farce here had nothing to do with her.
He couldn’t see her eyes clearly, but he could feel her helplessness and despair.
It felt like a sudden weight was placed on his heart, not painful, but it made him feel uncomfortable.
“Reece……”

Cristina’s pleading voice was still echoing in my ears.
“James, you take Cristina away first.”
“Wait a minute,” Dillan suddenly spoke up, raising his hand and gesturing for James to go first.
After dealing with the family matters, he would naturally settle accounts with James.
Cristina’s eyes, which were originally filled with tears, lit up intensely when she saw Dillan suddenly change his focus.
“Grandpa.” Cristina whimpered, wiping away tears, and asked pitifully, “Have you finally accepted me?”
Dillan’s eyes were cold and intimidating as they fell on Cristina.
“Since you are unwilling to leave…” Dillan’s unquestionable voice rang out, “You and Reece, go apologize to Julie on your knees.”

Cristina stood still in a daze.
What was her identity? Even when she became Melvin’s apprentice, she never performed the kowtow ceremony!
Is she now going to make that cheap woman kneel down?
This old man must be crazy!
Although she was impatient in her heart, Cristina still appeared fragile on the surface, looking at Reece with watery eyes, hoping he would take charge for her.
“Grandpa.” Reece frowned slightly, though not pleased, his tone still respectful and humble, “This doesn’t seem appropriate.”
“Inappropriate?” Dillan sneered, “You have been deceived by that woman, defaming your own wife, and now you want to divorce her, Reece, if you cannot earn Julissa’s forgiveness today, never set foot in the Diaz’s mansion again!”
“As for Cristina, whether you kneel or not, if kneeling can make Julissa forgive you, you can continue to be the jewelry consultant of the Diaz Group. If you don’t get forgiveness, don’t even think about stepping into the doors of the Diaz Group in the future!”
Was Cristina Diaz Jewelry consultant title removed?
What’s the difference between this and taking Cristina’s life!
The most important thing in her life was her reputation. If she were to be dismissed by the Diaz Group, who knows how the public would mock her.
