?Chapter 818:
“Let me see. You might end up with a big bump,” Rachel said, leaning in to inspect her. Natalia had clearly taken the worst of the impact.
She went to the fridge and pulled out ice packs for both of them.
During breakfast, Natalia pulled out a small box and slid it across the table.
Inside, a set of ruby jewelry gleamed under the light, each piece shimmering beautifully.
Rachel’s eyes widened.
“Natalia, this is way too extravagant.”
“You deserve it. Just take it, please. It’s really not expensive—I bought it with my own savings.”
Natalia reassured her with a firm nod.
Rachel wasn’t convinced, so Natalia pulled out her phone, quickly searched online, and held up a screenshot for her to see.
Seeing that the price was indeed reasonable, Rachel finally epted the gift without hesitation.
After breakfast, Natalia went to find Brian.
“I gave Rachel the gift, but let me be clear—this is the first andst time. If she ever finds out, she’ll definitely me me. I don’t want to be dragged into your mess again.”
?????????? ???? ?????? ????????????: g???????ν????????????
Brian gave a slight nod.
“I understand. Thank you, Natalia.”
Natalia sighed before speaking again.
“But there’s something you should know. Rachel and Mr. Vance are getting close. They went outst night, and she didn’te home. If she’s already made her choice, then you…”
She trailed off, but she knew Brian was smart enough to catch her meaning.
A high-profile jewelry exhibition had just opened, and Lizzie eagerly invited Rachel to go with her.
The moment they stepped inside, their eyes were drawn to the breathtaking disy of gemstones, each piece more exquisite than thest.
The venue was massive, and after hours of browsing, they had only made it through half.
One reason was that Lizzie refused to budge whenever she found something that caught her eye.
Considering the Vance family’s wealth, none of the prices were particrly extravagant for her.
“If you really love something, you should just get the whole set,” Rachel suggested.
