Chapter 221

Hubert refused to make way and even asked Beatrix, “Beatrix, do you like Mr.

Cline’s jewelry too? That’s fantastic! I plan to purchase one for your sister

tonight and perhaps another one for you. What do you think?”

Beatrix’s curiosity was piqued, so she stopped walking and asked, “Oh, when

Hubert, unlike his older brother, was an open book. Hearing that, he

immediately responded with a proud smile, “My father and elder brother

have agreed to sponsor the betrothal gift for the Quillen family. I know your

sister has a fondness for beautiful things in golden hues. The highlight of

tonight’s auction will be a golden jade phoenix, and I’m certain she will like it!”

“Oh, you truly understand my elder sister!”

“Of course! I know Mackenzie better than anyone in this world,” Hubert

proudly proclaimed.
