The day of the reunion arrived as scheduled.


    Susan arrived at the venue early, anticipation hanging in the air.


    Unexpectedly, the first person she ran into was someone she hadn’t seen in a long time, Giana.


    Giana’s eyes also widened in shock.


    Susan was a vision,pletely transformed.


    She wore a crisp white suit dress that radiated sophistication and elegance.


    Around her neck was the limited-edition diamond ne from Cavo, its brilliance enhancing her already refined appearance.


    In a word, she looked like royalty.


    Giana couldn’t suppress the pang of jealousy that welled up inside her.


    Susan had blossomed into a beautiful woman, far beyond what she had expected.


    But when Giana noticed the ne adorning Susan’s neck, a smirk tugged at the corner of her lips.


    She sauntered over to Susan, her tone dripping with false warmth.


    “Susan, long time no see.


    You’re looking more beautiful than ever.


    But you might want to take off that ne.

    “Why?” Susan’s brow furrowed in confusion.


    Giana offered a condescending smile.


    “Susan, you might not realize how much that ne is worth.


    Madisyn’s biological parents are farmers.


    They couldn’t possibly afford something so expensive.


    Obviously, that ne is a fake.


    If you wear it to the reunion, you’ll definitely beughed at.


    ”


    As her words hung in the air, a sudden gasp echoed from behind them.


    Startled, they both turned to see a foreign woman, her eyes wide with excitement as she stared intently at Susan.


    Without hesitation, the woman hurried over, her gaze fixed on the ne around Susan’s neck.


    “Miss, is that ne yours?”


    “Yes, it is,” Susan replied cautiously, her curiosity piqued.novelbin


    “I’ve been searching for this ne everywhere! My friend’s terribly ill, and she simply adores this piece.


    It would mean the world to her if I could get it for her.


    Would you consider selling it to me? I can offer you double the price—two million dors.


    ”


    Susan’s eyebrows shot up slightly.


    The ne had originally sold for just one million dors.


    Giana shook her head helplessly.


    She knew the ne was popr, but it was undeniably a counterfeit.


    Susan was only setting herself up for embarrassment by wearing it so openly.


    “Sorry, ma’am, but this ne isn’t the real deal,” Giana interjected.


    The foreign woman looked momentarily puzzled.


    “Is that so? May I see it up close?” she asked, extending her hand.


    Without hesitation, Susan unfastened the ne and handed it over, her confidence unwavering.


    The woman examined the piece carefully, her fingers tracing its intricate details.


    Meanwhile, Giana tugged at Susan’s arm and whispered, “I told you, wearing that fake ne is only going to give you grief.


    People will think you’re trying too hard.


    Maybe you can just keep it in your purse tonight.
