Judith understanding what Vivienne meant, glanced at Calista and raised an eyebrow. “Oh? So it seems Vivienne did manage to unveil an Emperor Green, thanks to you.”

Calista’s smile was stiff “Judith, you flatter me. I can’t take the credit. It’s just that since Vivienne just returned to Rivenwood, I wanted to help as much as I could.”

Judith gave her a meaningful look and said no more.

Vivienne followed Judith inside, then turned to Thomas. “Take the stone to my room.”

“Yes. Thomas immediately ordered the large stone to be moved to Vivienne’s room.

Mila, standing nearby, concealed a smirk. She turned to Paula, feigning confusion. “Why is Vivienne moving the jade to her room? Wasn’t it bought with the Brooks family’s money?”

Paula’s face darkened. She understood what Mila meant.

Enraged, she turned to Vivienne. “Vivienne! You’re breaking the rules! You bought the jade with the Brooks family’s money, so it should belong to the family. How can you keep such a precious jade for yourself?”
