All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 505 Everfrozen Ruby

Catherine glanced at the brocade box and immediately knew that it was valuable. The craftsmanship of the box was exquisite, and the patterns on it were lifelike and pleasing to the eye.

Catherine didn’t take it immediately. Instead, she turned her head to look at Branden beside her. He was casually lounging on the sofa, seemingly less indifferent. He exuded a bit of a rogue vibe. Perhaps this was the state he revealed in front of his closest people.

In response to Catherine’s questioning gaze, Branden waved his hand and placed the brocade box in Catherine’s hands. “Just take it and open it to see if you like it. If it’s not good, you can give it back. After all, my grandpa has plenty of treasures.”

Only Branden dared to say something like that in front of Karl.

Karl was fuming with anger, his mustache trembling and his nostrils flaring. If it weren’t for Catherine’s presence, he would have already given Branden a good beating.

Suppressing his anger, Karl eagerly looked at Catherine and said, “Cassie, open it and see if you like it or not. If you don’t like it, there are other treasures for you to choose from, whatever you want!”

Under their eager gazes, Catherine opened the brocade box. A purple crescent-shaped ruby pendant greeted her eyes, emitting a faint luster. When she gently twirled it in her fingers, the pendant would emit a faint glow.

The entire ruby pendant was translucent without a trace of impurities. When Catherine held it in her hand, a cold sensation spread through her fingertips and into her blood, gradually spreading upwards.

Catherine suddenly realized something and looked up at Karl. “Everfrozen Ruby!”

Karl was momentarily stunned, a hint of delight flashing in his eyes.
