Chapter 123
On stage, Aura looked at everyone looking at her. Looking at Granny Lynch’s hopeful eyes, she could
not help but secretly roll her eyes at her.
Luckily, she only paid some money to Malcolm previously for the fake ones. If she were to have gotten
the real set, she would have been openly robbed by the old woman!
At that thought, Aura smiled pretentiously at Granny Lynch. “Granny, what are you saying? Of course, I’ll
keep my word. Even if Joshua calls off the marriage, we’re splitting up amicably. There is no contention,
also…“
Aura smiled and looked at Nellie. “Even if the engagement is called off, we’re still relatives. You have
taken care of me for the past five years. It’s only right that I give you this.“
Then, she turned to look at her assistant far away. “ Bring me my gift.“
Under the singing praises of the crowd, Aura took over the box from her assistant. She gracefully opened
the box and showed it to everyone.
“This set of jewelry is designed by a world -famous jewelry designer, Y. As you all know, Y recently
announced his retirement not long ago. Stargazing is his final magnum opus.“
Aura arrogantly lifted her head. She smiled and introduced it to everyone. “After Y retired, the prices of
his designs rose exponentially. I asked someone to look for this set of jewelry abroad for a long time
before I could get it at a high price.“
The stage lights were all focused on the jewelry in Aura’s hands. The diamonds sparkled and the
platinum chain was accompanied by sapphires.
Coupled with the designer’s brilliant ingenuity, the set of jewelry was so beautiful that the crowd was in
awe.
“Gorgeous! How generous of Ms. Gibson! “
“I can see that Ms. Gibson is a grateful person. Even i f Joshua called off the marriage, she still gave
Granny Lynch such a gorgeous gift.“
“I heard that this set of jewelry is at least a million dollars, close to ten million! Ms. Gibson really treats
Granny Lynch as her own family! “
“What a pity they had to call off the engagement. I doubt that Ms. Gibson’s sister could compare to her! “
The discussion among the crowd was intense. Everyone said their piece.
Granny was so excited looking at the jewelry she could no longer move on stage.
She thought that if Joshua and Aura’s engagement was called off, she would not be able to get her
hands on the jewelry anymore!
Who knew that Aura, who was usually petty and calculative, would be so generous at that moment!
Granny Lynch could not hide the excitement in her heart. She immediately walked over and held the
jewelry in her hands.
“Aura, how thoughtful of you. How thoughtful! I never thought that at such an old age, I could still… “
“But…“
Before Granny Lynch could finish her sentence, a little girl’s adorable voice rang through. “But, Great-
Granny, the set of jewelry in your hands is a fake! “
At Nellie’s words, the venue was instantly silent. Everyone looked at the girl in Joshua’s arms.
Granny Lynch, who was still excited, jolted a little.
She furrowed her brows and looked at Nellie.
“It’s fake?“
Aura rolled her eyes at Nellie. “I acquired this with a high price. How could this be fake?“
Then, she fiercely glared at Nellie. “Little children should not simply tell lies.“
Nellie blinked her round, watery eyes at Aura. “I ‘m not lying. The set of jewelry you have is indeed a fake
one.“
Joshua, next to Nellie, frowned. He lowered his head and looked at Nellie, who had determined eyes.
“Nellie, how do you know that it’s a fake?“
“Because…“ Nellie blinked. “Because the real Stargazing…“ Nellie pursed her lips and looked at Joshua
timidly, “I designed them.“
Nellie’s words caused a huge uproar among the crowd.
Some laughed, some mocked, some were shocked.
On stage, Aura could not help but snicker. “Nellie, has your mom never taught you not to lie? You were
the one who designed the Stargazing? Tell me. How old are you? Have you ever seen a design sketch
before? Do you even know how to sketch? You dare to say that you designed them?”
Aura harrumphed coldly. Her eyes were filled with condescension. “It looks like your mother has never
taught you manners. You even know how to lie.”
Aura’s words were too harsh. Joshua furrowed his brows and hugged Nellie in his arms. He asked softly,
“What is going on?”
Joshua trusted that his daughter would never lie.
