Chapter 432
In a room where gifts were valued in the tens, or even hundreds, of millions, it was hardly impressive.
Hailey knew her necklace was… somewhat unimpressive in such a setting.
But its value wasn’t in the diamonds or the materials.
It was in the design, which was priceless.
Forcing a smile, Hailey continued, “Miss Blackwood, I’m Hailey, a jewelry designer hired by Miss Lancaster’s company, Aurevion Jewelers. I designed this necklace myself p>
She carefully watched Brianna’s expression.
When she saw Brianna staring intently at the necklace, her confidence surged, and her smile widened. “Miss Blackwood, I poured my heart and soul into designing this piece for three whole months. While its price may not be high, it’s the best gift I could possibly offer p>
Hailey figured that an heiress like Brianna had seen countless expensive jewels. To her, price was just a number.
A gift made with heart and dedication would be far more memorable.
“Three months p>
Brianna suddenly looked up at Hailey. “Miss Wynn, I’m quite curious… we’ve never met. How could you have been so certain three months ago that you would be attending my party p>
Hailey had only been brought back to the Wynn family three months ago.
Did that mean that the moment she returned, she started preparing a gift for the heiress of the Blackwood family—a family so far above the Wynns they weren’t even worthy of a second glance?
The claim was utterly ridiculous.
Hailey’s smile froze on her face. She was mortified. “I… I had admired you from afar, Miss Blackwood, and I felt… I felt you were the perfect muse p>
“I’ve been at home recovering and haven’t attended any public events. How could you have seen my ‘elegance’?” Brianna rested her chin in her hand, her expression one of pure curiosity.
But beneath her sweet, innocent face was a clear hint of malicious glee.
Anyone who bullied Serena was a bad person in her book.
And she wasn’t about to be nice to them.
No way.
Hailey was now utterly humiliated. Her face flushed, making the swollen half of her face look even more ridiculous.
Brianna tilted her head again, looking completely innocent. “You said you gave everything for this
necklace, Miss Wynn but the dress
you’re wearing looks to be worth around three million dollars p>
Laughter rippled through the crowd below.
She claimed it was the best gift she could offer, yet she was wearing a three-million-dollar dress while giving a present worth less than a hundred thousand. fo
The Wynn girl was clearly full of it.
Hailey’s face was beet red, her fingers tightening helplessly around the box. “I… I p>
“Miss Wynn, are you sure you designed this necklace yourself?” Brianna ignored her discomfort, her gaze returning to the choker.
Ignoring the cheap chip diamonds, the choker’s design truly hit all the right notes for her.
After all, she was intimately familiar with this design style, this cutting technique p>
It was remarkably similar to the style of her idol, the designer known as Queen.
