Lenora stiffened, sharing a silent glance with Zachary. Then, she smiled at Allison. "I forgot to wear it. I'll definitely wear it the next time I see you."

Mallory chimed in, "Are you talking about Ocean's Heart from the Aurora Charity Banquet? I've heard about it before, but I didn't make it to the event that night. I can't believe Zack got it for Nora. Nora, you must wear it out sometime. I'd love to see it." Allison might have been easy to fool, but now that Mallory had spoken up, things were likely to get complicated.

"Sure, but Johanne, I think you should get Mallory something similar. I heard that the emerald used for Ocean's Heart is a large piece, enough to make quite a few bangles. The owner was just playing around with this one."/

""Really?" Mallory's attention was diverted by Lenora.

Lenora nodded. "Of course."

Mallory cast a glance at Johanne.

Johanne let out a helpless chuckle. "All right, all right, I'll have someone keep an eye out. As soon as we get any news, we'll get it."

"That's more like it."

Watching the interaction between the two, Lenora felt a pang of envy. "Johanne treats you so well, Mallory,"

"Zack treats you well too," Mallory said. "He didn't hesitate to get you a bangle worth tens of millions."

Lenora simply nodded and didn't say anything more.

Zachary was indeed quite willing to spend money on her.

However, he was also quite willing to spend money on Susanna.

If there was only one of something, it was surely meant for Susanna.

Only what Susanna didn't want belonged to her, much like the cake he casually tossed her way.

She was always the second choice, forever someone else's plan B.

Zachary remained silent, watching Lenora feign cheerfulness in front of Allison and Mallory as she smoothed things over for him. His heart felt oddly numb, filled with an indescribable emotion. The bangle was not with her.

Where would she get one to show Allison?

After a short while, Gerald's energy began to wane and he started to doze off. The assistant and the housekeeper helped him upstairs to rest.
