Chapter 511
Leah was taken aback for a moment. "How do you know about the Shaw family?"
They had never brought up the Shaw family in front of Lisa before.
Lisa gave a sly grin. "You don't need to worry about how I know. What matters is that I do know. The Shaw family invited us to their dinner party in two days. This is our last and only chance. If Chloe won't help, are you really not going to take me?"
"After all, it's been twenty-three years. How could Neil possibly tell whether the child he saw back then was Chloe or me?"
Jacob was just as surprised. He hadn't expected Lisa to know something that happened over two decades ago.
After thinking it over for a bit, Jacob spoke coldly, "It's not as simple as you think. The Shaw family wants to see not just the child from back then but also the emerald pendant Neil gifted. And that pendant is with Chloe now. If she doesn't go, it doesn't mean anything."
A smug smile spread across Lisa's face. She pulled out a velvet box from her bag. "Dad, are you talking about this?"
Jacob took the box from her. Inside was a transparent, pink locket. His face was full of shock.
"How did this pink emerald pendant end up with you?"
Hearing this, Leah quickly got up and came closer. "Lisa, what's going on? Did you steal Chloe's locket?"
Lisa's expression shifted. Admitting she stole Chloe's locket might force her to return it, especially with Leah's current attitude toward her.
Lisa had to lie. "Who said I stole it? I asked Chloe for it. This locket should've been mine, right? If we hadn't been switched at birth, wouldn't this locket be mine?"
Leah was skeptical. "Chloe agreed to give it to you?"Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Lisa stirred the pot. "Chloe didn't care about it. She said by giving me this locket, she owed the Meadows family nothing. She's now the young mistress of the Sartori family. With the Sartori family's wealth, she couldn't care less about the value of this emerald pendant." Content

The light in Leah's eyes dimmed. It did sound like something Chloe would do. Once she made up her mind, she wouldn't bother to fight over certain things.
Lisa saw right through her. "Don't believe me? Call Chloe right now."
Seeing how confident Lisa was, Leah stopped doubting.
When Jacob Saw the pink emerald pendant, his expression changed instantly. He said, "Regardless, we can't miss this opportunity. Since you have the pendant, you'll come with us to the Shaw family dinner the day after tomorrow." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
Lisa's face lit up with a smile as her plan succeeded. "Dad, you're the best."
But Jacob still looked worried. "Just remember, keep quiet and don't cause any trouble. We can't afford to mess up this rare chance to get close to the Shaw family."
"Don't worry, I'll make sure the Shaw family likes me."
Jacob nodded. "Liking you isn't enough. If you can get the Shaw family to adopt you as their goddaughter, that would be even better."
Lisa frowned. "Dad, I don't want to be the Shaw family's goddaughter."
Jacob looked at her, puzzled. "You think it's that easy to become a goddaughter? You're being too picky."
Lisa quickly explained. "Dad, that's
not what I meant. Don't you know Neil has four sons, none of whom are married, and all are exceptionally handsome? If I could marry into the Shaw family, our family's situation would be completely different." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Jacob was surprised. He hadn't looked into the Shaw family's background in detail. But he had heard the rumors about the Shaw family having four outstanding sons.
