Chapter 517 Misled

A random person in the audience raised that question.

The identity of Mrs. Finch naturally meant being Jonathan's wife. The crowd soon looked at Anastasia with suspense, awaiting her response. Of course, she meant being Jonathan's wife, but she couldn't make it obvious. She grumbled playfully with a smile. "Hey, I didn't say that." Although her words denied it, her tone added more ambiguity to her statement.

Glancing at the entrance and finding no sight of Jonathan, Anastasia was slightly relieved, continuing, "The item I'm auctioning today is a ring I received not long ago."

Following her words, the staff moved the display stand onto the stage. The item on the stand was covered with a silk cloth.

When hearing that the item was a ring, Rose was taken aback and almost instinctively thought of the red diamond ring on Anastasia's hand. With bated breath, she watched Anastasia remove the silk cloth and reveal the ring... Not only Rose, but the audience also held their breath with shock in their eyes. That diamond ring...

"Red diamond!"

"I can't believe it's a red diamond. And it's so big!"

"The design is full of ingenuity, and the cutting craftsmanship is absolutely perfect. More importantly, the size! It's a scarce item!"

"How did you get such a big red diamond cut, Ms. Young?" a curious person asked.

Everyone knew Young's House of Jewels was the leading player in the industry. Still, such a large cut with a perfect red hue was a real rarity.

The audience quickly caught the look of tenderness in Anastasia's eyes. Suddenly, their assumption from earlier solidified. Could it really be...

"A friend of mine gifted this to me. As for how he acquired the red diamond, I have no idea." Anastasia's voice echoed in the venue.

A friend of hers... Was it who they thought it was?

"I heard that a large red diamond was discovered at the Finch Group's overseas mine not long ago..."
