Chapter 125

Winslet waited to see how Madeline would react. Sharon was a socialite in Japrium, so there was no way she was wrong. If Sharon said it was fake, then it had to be fake. It seemed like Madeline found herself a seemingly impressive brother who turned out to be just a con artist.

Sharon gave a dismissive snort. “The Heart of Snow couldn’t have been obtained for just 16 million dollars unless someone with power deterred others from competing.” She looked at Gavin with disdain. “Even if you’re pretending, the Heart of Snow isn’t something to show off with. Doesn’t it embarrass you to flaunt this fake?”

“Aunt Sharon, stop it.” Winslet pretended to be regretful. “Maybe he was tricked into buying a fake. Surely there’s a receipt for this jewelry, right Show us the receipt. If he was really scammed, there’s still time to call the police. Oh well, everyone gets deceived sometimes.

Sharon nodded. “If that’s the Heart of Snow, show as the receipt. For 16 million dollars, there must be proof.”

Layla looked around, feeling in a dilemma, unsure of which side to support. She wasn’t sure if Gavin really lacked ability, so she didn’t dare to offend him hastily.

“We don’t need to prove anything to you” Madeline shut the sapphire box with cool sarcasm. “Who do you think you are? Do I owe you an explanation?

She snickered, placing the box securely in her bag. She was finally done pretending with them, and her gaze toward the Larson family was full of disdain.

“Maddie, why are you so angry! Winslet smiled, seeing this as proof that Madeline was feeling guilty. Maybe she was aware of the gern being fake It might just be for show,

“Gavin was tricked, spending millions on a piece of glass. You should advise him to report it to the police too Winslet intentionally repeated. It’s millions, not just a few hundred dollars.

Madeline’s long eyelashes fluttered slightly. “Have you ever seen a genuine collector’s sapphire! Do you own one! As far as I know, your most expensive piece of jewelry is that diamond necklace worth over a hundred thousand dollars. Do you really think you’re qualified to say my sapphire, worth millions, is a fake?”

She felt a surge of anger, thinking, Gavin stood up for me, so why should we have to endure the Larson family’s suspicions and judgment? Gavin is my family. Those from the Larson family are outsiders and my enemies. There is no heed to be polite to them‘
