Chapter 15

"Back then, he gave me a jade pendant. I should be able to find him with it, but I lost it five years ago. Without any clues, how can I find him?" Willow said.

Willow was open with Rachel. Between the two of them, there were no secrets.

"Can you still remember what the pendant looked like?" Rachel probed.

"I remember roughly, but not the details."

So much time had passed since the incident, and she had been overwhelmed by pain and anger. She hadn't paid much attention to the jade pendant at the time, so she didn't remember the details clearly.

"In that case, sketch the basic outline of the pendant, and let me take a look," Rachel suggested. She was a jewelry designer, and had a keen eye for gems and jewelry. Perhaps she could be of some help. Dipping her finger in water, Willow sketched the pendant's outline on the table. It had a cloud-like shape.

Rachel scratched her head in frustration. "Hmm. I guess my knowledge is still lacking. I have no idea where this pendant could come from."

At this moment, four little heads emerged one by one, from high to low, and they all saw the shape of the pendant on the table.

After that, they quickly retreated to their rooms.

Tristan picked up a tablet and swiftly tapped on it, and a variety of cloud-shaped jade pendants appeared on it.

Lilith, the sharpest-eyed out of them, pointed at one of the pictures. "This jade pendant is from an ancient period, and it belonged to an emperor. The rest are modern imitations."

Lilith had a keen interest in studying antique jade artifacts. Whenever she saw a picture, she could determine whether the item was genuine or fake. She was a prodigy in the field of antique appraisal.

Willow was focused on cultivating her children's cultural knowledge. Whenever they had free time, she often took them to bookstores to read and learn. When the four little ones went to the bookstore, they would find books they liked. Willow thought they were reading fairy tales, so she didn't interfere much.

In truth, the books each of the four children read were all different, and had nothing to do with fairy tales.

After hearing Lilith's appraisal, Tristan quickly conducted an investigation online about that particular pendant.
