Goodbye, My Love

Chapter 1295

“Colette, you're a guest here, and I've no intention to bicker. Should you maintain your peace, | might spare you

the embarrassment before our fellow attendees.”

Regrettably, Colette missed the veiled sarcasm. Interpreting Loraine’s words as a retreat, a triumphant gleam lit

her eyes as she held her ground.

“So you resort to threats now? Loraine, don’t Let your current standing inflate your ego. The Universe Group isn’t

the sole host tonight; you can’t simply throw us out. You're nothing more than a fraud flaunting a fake jewel,”

she declared.

Marina, growing more alarmed with every passing moment, tugged

Colette's arm in a hushed plea, “We should leave, Colette.”

As the situation escalated, Marina was overcwith regret.

However, Colette drew her back, thrusting her into the spotlight. With a tic gesture towards Marina's

necklace, she retorted, “See this?

It's the real Stellar Galaxy, an exorbitant gift Marco bought exclusively for Marina as a family. But you, Loraine,

you're just his ex-wife, an outsider! Perhaps you got wind of Marco's purchase of the

Stellar Galaxy, and had someone mimic it to feed your vanity!”

Marina’s face turned ashen, and she backed away, wishing for a place to disappear into.

Loraine, however, seemed amused at Colette's tirade. Casting an interested glance at Marina, she lightly

brushed the necklace resting against her collarbone.

Receiving the Stellar Galaxy as a gift from Marco had been a delightful surprise.

She had long admired the handiwork of Master Laims, and the Stellar

Galaxy was a testament to her exquisite style. However, securing one of her pieces required more than money;

it also hinged on the master’s whims. Thus, Loraine had admired the piece from afar, never intending to go to

extraordinary Lengths to possess it.

Yet, Marco had done precisely that, presenting it to her as a gift.

The authenticity of her necklace was never a question for Loraine.

However, confronted with such baseless claims, she refused to let her dignity take a hit.

An amused smile played on Loraine’s lips as she threw a dismissive glance at Marina. “So you're tellingyour

necklace is genuine while mine is a copy?”

Marina, her face a ghostly shade of white, shivered under Loraine’s stare. Were it not for Colette's firm grip on

her arm, she would have bolted Long ago.

Nonchalantly, Loraine continued, “If it's real, surely you have a proof of purchase and a certificate of

authenticity?”

“Who brings those to a party?” Marina managed to mumble.

Undeterred, Loraine pressed on, “Even so, you should recall the distinctive emblem exclusive to certified pieces.”

Marina stuttered, lost for words. Colette, finding Loraine’s poise unnerving, retorted with defiance, “Why should

Marina reveal anything to you? It’s possible your necklace is the fake one, and you're prying for details from

Marina to keep your deceit going!”
