Chapter 17

Hearing Corrie’s words, everyone fell silent.

Even Flora’s expression froze.

Leonard was an unemployed young man who had just been released from prison. How could he afford an emerald bracelet worth more than ten thousand dollars?

Then there was another possibility: it was a fake bracelet made of resin or glass.

Corrie sneered and said weirdly, “Leonard, don’t blame me for talking too much. I just have doubts.”

Kenia gave Leonard an angry look.

She thought Leonard could send Flora something cheaper if he couldn’t afford emeralds. She couldn’t tolerate him deceiving them with a fake one.

Willie even snorted coldly.

He already thought Leonard had a moral problem, and now he even looked down on Leonard.

Only Flora felt sorry for Leonard. So what if he bought a fake one? It was a token of his blessing.

She knew Leonard couldn’t afford a real emerald bracelet. It was his thoughts that counted.

Seeing Leonard being ridiculed by so many people, Flora felt uncomfortable.

She blamed herself for insisting on inviting Leonard to her birthday even though she knew he was poor. She regretted not giving him some money.

Only Wilder thought the emerald gifted by Leonard was real.

After all, based on what Leonard had done at the Clouds Club, it was normal for him to give a real emerald.

But he wished Leonard would be embarrassed and misunderstood. He would not rescue Leonard.

However, Leonard, the person involved, said evenly with a calm look, “Of course, it’s real. How could I give my aunt something fake? It’s a translucent emerald bracelet. I specially selected it for Aunt for her birthday.”
