Chapter 83 An Expensive Jade Bracelet

“Minnic? What brings you here?” Lilian teared up in excitement when she saw her granddaughter, and she gave the girl a big hug,

“Lucian and Mommy brought me here.” Minnie pointed at Lucian.

Lilian looked back, and when she saw Freya walking toward her, she shot up in awe, her eyes filled with shock. Never in her dreams did she imagine Freya standing up. “Freya?” Lilian approached Freya, and tearfully, she asked, “You’re alright?”

“Yes.” Freya nodded. She teared up as well, seeing how much Lilian had aged. She used to be elegant and regal back when her husband was alive, but now she was wearing cheap, simple clothes. She looked like a different person, and her hands were callused.

Freya knew how much she had helped them over the past few years, but out of guilt, she only did

it in secret.

“This is good news!” Lilian hugged Freya as well, and she cried.

“That’s Lilian’s daughter-in-law?” one of Lilian’s colleagues exclaimed.

Everyone stared at Freya. She was in a white dress, and she radiated elegance and beauty. She was obviously the daughter of a rich man, given how beautiful she looked.

Freya was perfect compared to Amy. There was not a flaw to be found, but the same could not be said for Amy. And Lilian’s son was almost six feet tall. He was handsome, dashing, and wearing a crisp suit. Xandra’s son was a far cry from him. Lucian and Freya made the perfect couple, and they had a cute daughter too. They were the epitome of a happy family.

“My gosh, Mrs. Gray, your daughter-in-law is beautiful,” said Yvonne.

“S-She’s fine.” Lilian scratched her head. She wasn’t that much of a braggart, unlike her colleague.

Xandra felt awkward after seeing Lucian and Freya. She knew her son and his wife were outstanding people, but compared to Lucian and Freya, they were nothing. Why is her daughter-in- law this gorgeous?

Amy was jealous of Freya’s beauty, and she pushed her husband. “C’mon, show Mom the gift you got her.”

“O-Okay.” Narcissus was staring at Freya, and his eyes were filled with envy. He used to think his wife was gorgeous, but compared to Freya, she was nothing but a swine.

“I got this for you, Mother.” Amy showed Xandra a box, then she whipped out a gold bracelet from within. “Bought this for you. Not too much. Sixty thousand or so. Here, try it on.”

Everyone stared at Xandra with envy. A bracelet that costs sixty grand? She’s so lucky she has a rich son.

Xandra felt like she finally won again, and she wore her bracelet to show off. “My gosh, this is beautiful. Not everyone gets to wear this.”

Lucian noticed that things were getting a bit off, and he realized what was going on. A showoff session? He whipped out the bracelet Annie bought and handed it to Lilian. “Here, this is what we got for you, Mom. I’d like to keep the price a secret in case someone says we’re bluffing. Here, try

it on.”

“Hah. I bet you’re just too scared to announce it.” Xandra scoffed. “Bet it’s cheap stuff. You don’t even make much, you lowly guard. That’s not even jade, I bet. Probably bought it from a dollar shop.”

“This is not cheap stuff.” The restaurant owner showed up and pointed at the bracelet Lilian was holding. “I research jade in my free time, and that’s the real deal. If I’m right, it’s worth at least a million.”

Silence fell upon the crowd, and everyone stared at the bracelet Lilian was holding. They couldn’t believe it was a million. That was the price of a house.

“A million? You sure that’s not a bluff?” Yvonne looked horrified.

The restaurant owner put on a sheepish look. “Just an estimate. You’ll need to ask the buyers for the price. I’m not really sure how much it costs, but I’m sure that’s the real deal.”

“Yeah, and it cost about three times the price he said,” said Lucian.

Everyone inhaled sharply, and awe filled their faces. Even the restaurant owner found the price to be unbelievable.

Xandra and her family were flabbergasted. They thought they could embarrass Lilian with the gold bracelet alone, but then her son and his wife gave her something that was worth millions.

“And why in Go d’s name did you spend three million on a bracelet?” Lilian asked, displeased.

“Mom, Freya got into a partnership with Infernal Group, and she’s in charge of the Monsalt demolition project. She made a lot of money, so we got you this. Just take it,” Lucian lied. All for his mother to be proud.

Freya rolled her eyes, but she didn’t clear things up.

A jealous Amy said, “Bullsh*t. I’m Infernal Groups sales manager, and no one told me she’s in charge of that project. I know a big company’s the one handling it, not her.”

“You work for Infernal Group?” Lucian shot Amy a look of interest. “And what department do you

work in?”

“I’m the manager for a shop in Construction Road. Real estate’s not my business, but I’m sure she’s not the one in charge of Monsalt’s demolition project. That project is worth billions. There’s no way someone like her can handle it.” Amy shot Freya a look of disdain and sneered.

“Well, guess I’m caught.” Go ds, this is so annoying.

“Amy, call your boss and see who’s handling this project. I hate liars the most. There’s no way someone like her can handle a big project,” said Xandra. She wanted to embarrass Lucian and Freya.

“Right away, Mother.” Amy nodded. “I’ll call the president.”

“Um, the barbecue’s getting cold, so why don’t we grab something to eat?” the restaurant owner stepped in before things could get out of hand. “We’re having fun here, so why don’t we just go back to fun?”

The owner didn’t think Freya could handle a project of that scale either. No way a single person can handle a project worth billions.

Lilian had the same idea too. Freya had just returned to health, so there was no way she could handle this kind of project. They must have said that just so I could avoid getting embarrassed. If this call goes through, it’s going to be awkward for everyone.

“I will make the call,” Amy said stubbornly. “I hate liars the most, and I will replace out who’s in charge of the demolition project today. I don’t tolerate liars.” And then she called Jack.
