Chapter 239

“She accepted the ring and was about to say yes, When the time comes, we’ll sell the house, transfer

the property, and then get married. This way, the house will have nothing to do with her. Her father’s

health is deteriorating. Once he’s gone, the other house will be yours and your father’s to live in.”

“As long as I coax her into marriage, I’ll become a local. Finding a job won’t be difficult, right? Mom, I

have to go. She’s back.”

Seth hastily hung up the phone as Aurelia watched Lily approaching.

Lily glanced at her once, then walked straight to Seth without looking back.

Aurelia’s heart sank.

It seemed that Lily had chosen to believe Seth and who knew what awaited her in the future.

Aurelia hadn’t finished her thoughts when a splash of water from the next table caught everyone’s

attention in the restaurant.

It was followed by Lily’s voice as she said, “I’ll treat you to this tea! You hypocrite!

“You! What did you say?” Seth was clearly bewildered.

Lily tossed the ring to Seth, saying, “How dare you use a ring that cost 20 dollars to propose to me?”

“No, this is…”

“Do you dare to swear that it’s real?” Lily interrupted.

Instead of explaining, Seth blamed Lily for not being understanding. “Don’t you think my heart is what

matters most? When did you become so materialistic?”

Lily was utterly bewildered. “I’m materialistic? You bought a flower that cost maybe a dollar, a set meal

of thirteen dollars, and used a ring that costs around twenty to trick me into marriage? Who is the

materialistic one here? And this?”

She threw the fake designer handkerchief in her hand to Seth, then looked at him from head to toe. “All

those are counterfeits. Do you really think I’m that easy to fool? Are

you proud of yourself for using this little money to cheat me into giving you a house?”

Seth was stunned and paled. “How did you…”

“How did I find out? I consulted an expert just now to identify your cheap

handkerchief. This isn’t even considered a high–quality counterfeit. And all the clothes you have on are

fake.

“Who are you to talk about sincerity? I think you and your mother are just

disgusting. By the way, ask your mother to return the gold bracelet I bought her, or you’ll find yourself in

the police station again.”

Having said that, Lily turned and left. Seth was left alone to face the scornful looks from others.

In the end, he fled the scene with his head down.

A new cup of lemon tea appeared on Aurelia’s table. She called the waiter and said, “We didn’t order

lemon tea.”

The waiter smiled. “It was ordered by the girl who ran out just now.”

Aurelia lifted the lemon tea and held it in front of Leslie.

“See? Although there are people like Millie who are confused, most girls are still sensible.”

“Are you that naive?” Leslie asked expressionlessly.

“Mr. Synder, the world is indeed not perfect, but it’s not as bad as you think. Don’t you feel that the

worse you think, the worse everything around you

becomes? Don’t put too much pressure on yourself.”

Aurelia smiled and brought a clean cup. She then poured half of her lemon tea into it and handed it to

Leslie.

“Cheers to a beautiful world.”

Leslie fell into silence.

Leslie looked at the smile on her face and clicked glasses with him. He never quite liked lemon tea, but

it tasted nice at this moment.

Aurelia had always been optimistic.

After eating, they returned home to find that Linda had left.

She also left a note on the table that said, “I won’t disturb the newlyweds anymore.”

Aurelia handed the note to Leslie and sighed a breath of relief.

“Mr. Synder, I’ll go to your room to gather my things.”



“Sure.”

He didn’t stop her and sat on the couch to give her some space.

She entered the master bedroom. Without much to pack, she gathered her things swiftly and moved

them back to the guest bedroom.

Exhausted, she stretched her neck and froze when her hand touched her neck.

Her emerald necklace was gone.

She checked a few times then went to check on a mirror, before confirming that she dropped it.

It must have fallen off when Jackson grabbed her. She was so nervous at the time that she didn’t notice

it.

Then, the encounter with Seth took place and her attention was taken off her neck.

What should she do?

After some contemplation, she decided to retrieve it.
