Chapter 169

Patricia let out a soft gasp when she felt Isaac's lips against her neck, and she turned scarlet immediately after.
Patricia let out a soft gasp when she felt Isaac's lips against her neck, and she turned scarlet immediately after.

She dared not admit that she just made that sound.

It sounded so alluring, so seductive.

Ahhhhhhhh…

She was too embarrassed by it. She would never be able to look Liam or Tom in the eye ever again.

On the other hand, Isaac was satisfied. The sound she made proved how much he excelled in this area.

"Yes. From now on, Celestial Tears is yours, but you're not allowed to sell it. You must wear it every day."

He made sure to state this clearly, or else, this money-obsessed woman might sell it off as soon as the necklace touched her hands.

He wanted to spend an eternity of lifetimes with her. It would not happen if she sold the necklace off.

Patricia felt a little disappointed when she heard that. It was only for her to look at. She could not make use of it the way she wanted to.

"I wouldn't dare to wear it. It'd be like wearing a giant billboard that says 'come and rob me' for all the thieves to see."

Isaac chuckled and stroked her face with his slender fingers.

"Patricia, do you know what I like the most about you?"

Patricia rolled her eyes. Who knows what you like about me? I have both brains and beauty, so there's nothing about me that isn't worth liking.

She did not say anything, however, so Isaac chuckled and informed her, "I like how innocent and adorable you are!"

Hah! You like that she's gullible and easily fooled, Liam grumbled to himself.

Patricia was confused. "Mr. Arnold, wouldn't you be afraid of someone robbing you if you wore something worth 22 million around your neck?"

She had lived among the lowest rungs of society before, so she knew the depravity that existed in this world.

Isaac inched closer to her ear and said, "There's a built-in mechanism in the necklace. Once it's closed, no one will be able to see that black gemstone. Without that, it'll look like any ordinary necklace."

True enough, he had to explain the necklace in detail to her, or else, she would not know about the wonders of this necklace.

Patricia nodded. "Oh, I see!"

Just then, Isaac brought the necklace out and put it on her.

His deep, brooding eyes stared right at her as he said, "Perfect!"

Patricia bent down to look at the necklace. She squinted slightly as the black gemstone dazzled with a starry sparkle that almost blinded her.

"Are you seriously giving this to me, Mr. Arnold?"

Shouldn't he give this to his fiancée instead? How can I accept such a priceless gift?

Isaac extended his long arm to pull her into his embrace before kissing her on her cheek.

"Patricia, remember to keep it on, always."

Patricia looked down again. It was indeed a very pretty necklace.
