Chapter 60

Madeline’s face fell.

Natasha had beaten her to the punch, and there was no way she could deny it now.

If it had been an ordinary bracelet, she could have just said she had been given the wrong gift.

But Natasha had already said it was a gift from her grandmother.

Everything that had happened that night left Andrew feeling anxious.

He instinctively wanted to keep something that could give him leverage over Natasha.

“The bracelet is for Natasha, but it’s only to be given to her when she gets married. It really wasn’t meant to be today’s birthday present,” he said.

He gave the butler a subtle nod.

The butler looked baffled, but after receiving the signal, he habitually moved to take back the

bracelet.

But a pair of hands blocked his way.

Alexei said, his tone dripping with sarcasm, “So something that’s only supposed to be given when Natasha gets married can be worn freely by Olivia.

“When Natasha finally gets it, it has to be taken away?”

Everyone instinctively turned to look at Olivia, who was shrinking behind Andrew and Madeline.

She had put on the bracelet just to get under Natasha’s skin. Natasha couldn’t have it, but Olivia had already been flaunting it for ages.

If the timing was right, she could have even made Natasha believe that the bracelet on her wrist was the very one meant for her.

But she never imagined that this bracelet, meant to be her tool, would end up turning into evidence against her.

Olivia was kicking herself inside.

Her dress didn’t have any sleeves, so she could only anxiously try to cover her wrist with her

hand.

But before she knew it, Tilda had slipped over from the crowd around the flower cart and grabbed Olivia’s left hand.

She said, “Whoa, Olivia, your bracelet is exactly the same as the one Natasha just got!”

Everyone’s eyes immediately zeroed in on Olivia’s left hand, the one she’d been trying to

hide.

A person asked, “They really are identical. What’s up with that?”

Another asked, “Olivia isn’t married either. How did she get hers?”

Natasha smiled and said, “Actually, most of you probably don’t know this, but the bracelets my grandmother left behind were a matching pair. One is for me, the other one is for Olivia.

“I only just found out that Olivia got hers ages ago, while mine was always kept from me. Mrs. Clark, would you care to explain why that is?”

Madeline was at a loss for words.

Even Andrew couldn’t help but blame Olivia for wearing the bracelet at the wrong time.
