Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 124 I Care About You

The opal was one of the finest pieces that they had seen. It appears slightly yellowish under the light.

Violeta intended to politely decline them, but Niall stopped her.

"Vio, accept it."

After all, with the amount of money he brings to the Yurtlandia Chamber of Commerce each year through his contracts, Dylan could buy as much opal as he wants. Therefore, Niall felt that it was appropriate for Dylan to give Violeta the opal pendant.

Since Dylan's daughter had caused such a mess today, he had to show some sincerity even though Hayden was lenient with them.

Upon hearing this, Violeta politely accepted.

Violeta took both of the pendants.

After dinner, Violeta handed one of them to Hayden.

Hayden glanced at the opal pendant in his palm. "Why are you giving this to me?"

Violeta replied, "Didn't you hear him? This is an apology gift for both of us. So, how can I keep both? Here, take one."

Hayden paused and reached out to take it.

Holding the pendant up to the moonlight, he could see the structure of the stone within.

"Does your hand still hurt?"

"It's fine. Do you want to take a look at it?"

"Huh?"

Violeta was surprised.
