Yvette glanced at the jewelry box and let out a light laugh, crossing her legs as she settled back in her chair. “No need.”

Being rejected by Yvette again and again, Nellie felt too embarrassed and finally lost her cool.

The living room was completely silent. The servants even didn’t dare to breathe loudly.

But this time. Zachary didn’t scold Yvette. Instead, he stared at the jewelry box for a moment before looking at Yvette, who was nibbling on some ham, and then at Nellie, whose expression was sour. “If Yvette doesn’t want this, then let it go. It looks too old-fashioned for young people. You can keep it for yourself

Yvette raised her head in surprise, finding Zachary to be kind of interesting.

After that, Zachary turned to Lucas, “Go grab the Heart of Lorry from my collection.”

Winona felt a rush of jealousy. Just last night, Zachary had given Yvette a villa worth over 30 million, and now he was giving her the Heart of Lorry-the crown jewel he had bought at West Auction House for millions. Winona adored it so much, but every time she brought it up, Zachary said they’d discuss it when she got married.

Zeke, who had lost the villa, and Winona, who had lost the jewelry, both began to feel resentful toward Zachary. He seemed to favor Yvette too much, and a wave of insecurity washed over them.

Nellie was on the verge of exploding. ‘How could Zachary scold me right in front of the servants? This’s too much!

Noticing Zachary ignoring her after giving orders to Lucas, Nellie realized he was mad. She had to smooth it over for herself. “You’re right, honey. I should have thought it over. I wanted to get Yvette a gift, but I just don’t know what young people are into these days. I’ll make it up to her another time.”
