Chapter 124 Sharon's scornful gaze becserious. She murmured to herself, "This..."" Everyone's attention was captured by the content of the box. Inside, nestled in black velvet, lay a brilliant large sapphire.
It was daytand the roots wasn't deliberately lit. Yet even in natural light, the gem was stunningly brilliant. Every facet glimmered, with a blue that was pure and without blemish. Based on its quality alone, it was undoubtedly very v y valuable.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat mesmerizing blue reflected in everyone's eyes. Sharon could instantly tell that this gem was auction-grade jewelry, and certainly not something found in Acocesser Her mouth turned down, disbelief in her eyes. Her expression grew more serious, and after a moment, she sighed, "Could this be... the Heart of Snow? Without hesitation Winslet asked, "The Heart of Snow? What's that?" Sharon stared at the gemstone without blinking, swallowed hard, and showed a hint of admiration in her eyes. "A while back, a top-grade sapphire was mined overseas and was transported to Skyline Grand Hotel in Japrium for auction about a month ago. It was the centerpiece of that auction. This gem was cut from an entire sapphire, with not a trace of impurity, and its color is as stunning as a queen's eyes." "Oh my gosh," Winslet gasped, instinctively glancing at Gavin. She thought, This man is so young and handsome, yet so wealthy?' She muttered to herself, "It sounds so impressive. It must be worth a fortune" Layla perked up at the mention of its extr extraordinary value, exclaiming with excitement. "Wow, doesn't this make it a renowned piece? It must be worth a lot when it is sold, right? Items like this are typically for collectors." Sharon couldn't help but feel like they all had no sense of luxury. "Who would sell jewelry of this standard? It's something to pass down for generations, not something you'd easily let go of Layla and Thomas both inspected the Heart of Snow seriously. Layla, especially, felt an urge to its incredible value, she held back. If she annoyed Gavin, she'd surely get in trouble again. e to hold it eager er to take a closer look. But considering Layla forcibly held back her urge, looking at Sharon. "Sharon, how much do you think this gemstone is worth?" "The Heart of Snow is worth over 16 million dollars. Sharon said, raising her chin slightly. She knew this precisely because she had attended the auction too.
"16 million dollars!" Even Thomas was a bit surprised, leaning in to get a closer look. Each detail of the gem was so perfect. He clicked his tongue in admiration, realizing why it was worth 16 million dollars. Its beauty was truly captivating.
As a man, he didn't know much about jewelry, but he was aware that when Larson Group had good returns, they could earn millions a year. He would have to save for many years, without any other expenses, to afford such a small gemstone. Thomas looked at Gavin with great appreciation. "You've really shown Maddie a lot of favor, giving something so valuable" Gavin laughed. "It's just a little trinket. I made it a necklace for Maddie." He didn't think much of it. He had given Madeline a supplementary card with even more money, but she hadn't spent any of it. As a man, he didn't have many hobbies, but he earned a lot. If Madeline didn't spend it, he wouldn't know how to spend the money. Madeline smiled lightly. "Gavin, you shouldn't have. It's such an expensive gift. I won't be able to match it on your next birthday "You don't need to giveanything. Gavin said, picking up the sapphire and placing it in Madeline's hand. "See how well this color suits you! You have sun-kissed skin, Maddie. This gemstone was made for you. Not giving it to you would be a waste" Madeline knew Gavin was generous with compliments for her. She put the gemstone back in its box. It was beautiful, and she really liked all kinds of sparkly things.
Winslet's throat tightened with bitterness. She looked down at her gold-inlaid emerald bracelet, which Madeline had no interest in keeping. It may only be worth a few thousand dollars and seemed like trash compared to Madeline's 10-million-dollar gemstone. No wonder Madeline wasn't Interested. It made Wimlet feel like she was scavenging for scraps.
Jealousy swelled inside her. Once, Benjamin had given her a pricey diamond necklace just to make her happy, while Madeline received cheap trinkets to drive her. But now, in a short time, she only had a necklace worth a few thousand dollars, while Madeline easily got gifts worth what a family might not earn in several years. Madeline, who was once no match for her in every way, had taken off and surpassed her, leaving her far behind. "I'm so envious of Maddie. When she was at hback then, she was cherished by her brothers and fiancé. Now that she's away, she has the brothers from the orphanage doting on her and so many suitors, Winslet said with a touch of envy. Then she intentionally added. "Unlike me. I've never been liked by any guys. I wish I were like you, having men flocking aroundwherever I go." Madeline gave a little smirk. She thought, Winslet really reversing the facts! At home, Dad and Morn love Winslet. My brothers adore Winslet, 337 PM C Chapter 124 and even my own fance loves Winslet.
Madeline's eyes grew colder. "Then this luck should really be yours."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGavin looked at Winslet, thinking. She is such a low-grade angelic bitch. Her simple tricks still manage to have all the men at the Larson residence wrapped around her little fingerth can't help but wonder if all the sons of the Larson family are complete fools." "No need to be jealous. Pretending to be something you're not only leaves you embarrassed when the truth comes out, Sharon said with a hint of amusement in her eyes, She exhaled, sat up straight, and then her previous expression vanished completely as she leaned back on the couch, as if she had figured it all out Cher little fingerth
She picked up her cup with a knowing look. "I happened to attend that auction, so I naturally know who bought the Heart of Snow Coo Unfortunately, the person who bought it placed it directly into their collection, and it definitely won't appear in Acocester. And it's even less likely to end up in the hands of syoung fool." Sharon didn't mock. She simply looked down at Madeline. "Speople mistakenly think a pebble is a gem. As someone who's been there, I'll give you sadvice. Be smart. Don't let someone toy with you because of flattery and small favors." This statement outright accused Gavin of being a fraud. Gavin didn't get angry. Instead, he laughed quietly, watching them without saying a word.
"Is this sapphire fake? Maddie, how did you get fooled again?" Winslet's tone was a bit gleeful. "Your luck is really bad. First, Benjamin gave you a fake diamond necklace, and now 上 you're stuck with a fake sapphire. It's your birthday. For goodness sake, this shouldn't be happening. We aren't clueless. We can tell if something's real or not at a glance. But Maddie, you are the one who is embarrassed." X
