Chapter 692
It had been a long time since the proposal ended, and everyone had yet to recover from the shock.
The netizens were discussing it endlessly.
This was an absolutely unparalleled rich man.
He was crazy rich.
He doted on her too much.
Even Sharon, who had always looked down on Kelly and Ian, did not come back to her senses for a long time.
Last night, Kelly did not open all the boxes. She only opened three to five of them. The jewelry inside was all worth a lot. Every piece was on par with the Red Sun Star.
The Red Sun Star was a famous piece of jewelry, and it was the most precious gift Louis had given her.
It’s surprising that Kelly had so many of them.
Sharon instantly felt a little embarrassed. Thinking back to how arrogant she was previously, she felt like she had slapped herself in the face.
She lay on the bed, looking a little depressed.
Louis was not around when the proposal happened. Instead, he went to deal with company matters.
He was very busy, extremely busy. Making time for variety shows with Sharon was already difficult, it was impossible for him to waste time accompanying her in his free time.
Louis had an all–night video conference last night. He had not slept the entire night, and his eyes were bloodshot.
“What’s wrong?” he asked as he massaged the space between his eyebrows.
Sharon looked at the blood vessels in Louis’s eyes and felt sorry for him. However, when she thought of lan’s imposing manner last night, she still told him what happened last night.
Louis’s expression was indifferent. He was not moved by Sharon’s words at all. When she finished speaking, he asked directly, “Have you ever thought that those… are all fakes?”
What? A fake?
Sharon was stunned.
Louis sighed. “Silly girl, do you think those few pieces of jewelry are cabbages? According to what you said, there are dozens of jewelry that are worth more than the Red Sun Star. If I can’t even take them out, how could lan?”
It was not that Louis really could not afford it, but at his age, he usually did not inherit the family business. It was impossible for the jewelry passed down in the family to be handed over to him.
“Being able to take out so many things, other than the people from the big aristocratic families, it’s impossible for anyone else.” Louis’s expression was cold and his tone was firm. “I basically know everyone around my age from the big aristocratic families, and I’ve never seen this Ian before!”
“You mean, those are fake?” Sharon grabbed Louis’s sleeve nervously.
Louis tapped her forehead and found it funny. “What do you think? My grandfather and my parents have a lot of expensive jewelry, but those are all in the vault. They are all numbered. How can they give them away casually?”
Sharon nodded. She understood this point.
Although the Phil family had money and status, they had strict control over their finances. They basically did not allow their descendants to waste it. Every month, Louis had a fixed allowance. If he wanted to wear expensive jewelry, he had to borrow it from his family and return it later.
“I really didn’t expect it to be fake!” Sharon’s heart was pounding. She really wanted to tell the world about this.
With a single glance, Louis could guess Sharon’s thoughts. He sighed and reminded her, “Don’t get involved in other people’s business. Without concrete evidence, people will think you’re spreading rumors.”
“Besides…” Louis’s tone was contemptuous. “Stop focusing your attention on such a people. Look at Ian. He follows Kelly all day long and doesn’t even have a proper job. He’s probably just the offspring of some newly wealthy family involved in demolitions.
“There’s no need to look at a person of his level.”
Sharon nodded, indicating that she understood.
However, she rolled her eyes and hugged Louis’s arm. “Last night, lan gave Kelly a pink diamond earring. It’s said to have a very long history. It’s called Ayilian’s tears.”
“I just checked, it was a gift for the princess consort when the King of YL held his wedding in 1832. It’s very precious. Such valuable jewelry must be hidden in the hands of some collector.”
“Louis, can you help me find out where it is?”
When Louis heard this, he knew that Sharon had no intention of giving up on competing with Kelly.
Although it was a little embarrassing, she was his woman after all. Louis was willing to indulge her.
He frowned and thought for a moment. He felt that this name was familiar. After thinking for a while, he suddenly said, “I remember now. ‘Ayilian’s tears‘ is in the possession of the Walter family abroad.”
“The Walter family?” Sharon was surprised.
Louis explained, “My aunt’s son, Ian Walter, is now the head of the Walter family. Although I’ve never seen him before, this Ian is very scheming. He took over the Walter family at a young age.”
“Ian Walter?” Sharon read it once and realized a point. “That person’s name is Ian Walter. It’s very similar to the name Ian.”
Louis sneered. “The difference is like heaven and earth. Don’t mention this in the future. It’s too insulting to Ian Walter.”
Sharon nodded.
She kissed Louis on the cheek and said considerately, “You haven’t slept all night. Have a good rest. I’ll go out for a while and not disturb you.”
With that, Sharon left happily. She wanted to spread the news and thoroughly embarrass Kelly.
Kelly was still sitting on the bed, admiring her jewelry. After she came back last night, she opened all the boxes. Every piece of jewelry inside was so beautiful that it made her cry.
They were so big, so dazzling, and so enchanting.
As a result, she found lan much more pleasing to her,
No one could resist the charm of jewelry, especially since these jewelry pieces were crafted by renowned artisans.
Kelly touched the beautiful jewelry and looked at lan with watery eyes. “Ian, are these all for me?”
“Of course.” Ian nodded. How could he take back something he had given away?
“But there are so many.” She counted carefully, and there were 48 of them.
“How many?” Ian frowned and said casually, “Only a few dozen, not even a hundred pieces.”
Kelly was really too simple, too beautiful, and too easily contented.
Kelly was stunned.
He was so rich and domineering.
If it weren’t for her family’s eccentricity, she would want to cling to this wealthy figure forever.
After admiring the jewelry, Kelly quickly put everything away and asked Ian to find a safe place to store them.
Ian was puzzled. “Why did you put them away? Aren’t jewelry supposed to be worn?”
Kelly shook her head vigorously. “No, no. Any one of them here is worth tens of millions. It’s too extravagant.”
Was she crazy to wear such expensive things so casually?
Ian opened a box, took out a pink diamond earring, and put it on Kelly carefully. “No matter how expensive it is, it’s just a piece of jewelry. Wear it if you like it.”
Ian paused.
He did not know what Kelly liked before, and Kelly rarely showed her preferences in front of him. Now that he knew she liked jewelry, he had to prepare well.
Hence, he said, “In a while, I’ll get Cyril to go to South Africa to buy a diamond mine and use it all to make a necklace for you. Then, I’ll go to South Asia to buy a few colored gemstone mines and jade mines.
“By the way, do you like jade?/Should I buy some more jade mines?” lan asked so seriously.
Kelly covered her face and/was about to scream. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
He was too doting and domineering.
