Chapter 915 The Red Jade

Bob was about to store the box away when he noticed a small, squarish piece of jade tucked in the corner of the box.

He reached for the red jade and held it up between his thumb and index finger to examine it in detail. Engraved on one side of the jade was a young girl's beaming face, and on the other was a leaf.

He recalled seeing Alice wearing this piece of jade around her neck when he first brought her back to the Chapman residence. It was easy to tell at first glance that the jade was worth a fortune.

The pale green of the leaf and the brilliant red of the jade formed a unique and breathtaking contrast.

After Alice had come of age, Bob had her stop wearing the jade, worried that it might be the key to her real family discovering her identity and whereabouts.

Looking back, Bob realized that he had been stupid and selfish.

Guilt and regret instantly filled him.

Still holding the jade, Bob was in such a daze that he did not notice the person standing in an obscure corner of the area.

It was Hera, and she was staring curiously at the piece of red jade in Bob's hand.
