Chapter 220
As Myras birthday was fast approaching. Evadne spent her days working and her nights locked in her room, diligently crafting a handmade birthday gift for Myra
She was preparing a ring It was made from 18k gold, natural aquamarine, and diamonds.
For Evadne a top notch jewelry designer, the technicalities were not a challenge However, the preciousness of this gift lay in the quality of the aquamarine its size was significant, its purity exceptional. It was a one of a kind collectible piece, its value rivaling that of distinguished gemstones.
When it came to gifts for her loved ones, Evadne was anything but stingy. She never rushed or was half hearted, she always poured her heart into the gift
This was also the case for the gifts she once gave to Thaddeus
However, that man never seemed to appreciate her efforts
At this moment, a video call notification popped up on her phone. It was tiva, the manager of her jewelry studio
âWhatâs so urgent that youâre calling me at this hour?â Evadne asked, carefully polishing the gemstone
âAlea, do you remember Tyler? Liva asked.
âOf course, he was my apprentice for three years before he set up his own business. Heâs a talented young man with good craftsmanship Whatâs up?â
âThe day before yesterday, someone contacted him to replicate your jewelry design. Can you believe that? If you donât reenter the scene, there will be knockoffs of your work every Evadne continued her work, laughing nonchalantly, âWhatâs there to be angry about? Iâm so awesome that those who cant have mu jewelries to buying fakes to satisfy their vanityâ Tyler couldnât reach you, so he immediately came to me. Heâs not interested in the job and wouldnât dare to accept it. It would not only insult his integrity as a designer but also be like betraying his masterâs work.
Evadne couldnât resist her curiosity. âJust out of curiosity, who is trying to replicate my work? Honestly, anyone who can identify him as my apprentice must have some serious connections, right?â
donât know how he met her, but he said the girl is from Elmsworth, Windhelm, with the surname Fairhaven Oh right, she is also the apprentice of the famous pianist Christian. Evadnes clever eves blinked
Now she knew it
Since they were so eager to rush into the line of fire, she wonât be polite then
Liva, tell Tyler that his master wants him to accept Ms. Edithâs order,â Evadneâs eyes lit up with a mischievous gleam, her ips curling into a smirk
âHuh? Whyâ Liva was utterly confused.
âHe should not only accept but also do a good job. He canât tarnish my reputation.â
Five days later. Thaddeus, who had just finished a meeting at the corporation, received a message
Ads, who had been refusing to budge, had surprisingly agreed
âWhat exactly is going on?â Thaddeus stood by the window, his silhouette dark and imposing, his eyes filled with an intense gaze
Gordon anxiously said. âI heard that Glynnis somehow managed to give Ada a piece of Aleaâs jewelry design, which helped to seal the deal!â
Thaddeus cast him a cold glance, âHuh, it must be a fakeâ
Tm not sure, But Ads is a jewelry collector herself. Wouldnât she be able to tell if itâs fake?â
Gordon sighed, his face turning gloomy, if Glynnis successfully signs the contract with Ada, the Abernathy Hotel will fall into the hands of that witch and her daughter! Who knows how much advantage they will take, they might even drain every last drop of peanut oil from the kitchen!â
âEvadne probably already knows about this.â Thaddeus murmured, his long lashes trembling slightly
Right now, with Glynnis winning over Ada, he was facing a new round of power struggles and backstabbing, surely more troublesome than dealing with Evadne
However, all he could think about was Evadneâs situation, completely neglecting his own
Gordon sighed, âMiss Evadne has been quiet these past few days, she must have given up fighting
âGiven up? Highly unlikely
Thaddeusis dark eyes half-closed, the fiery blood in his b*dy stirring restlessly, âOthers might, but Evadne will never give up so easily. Sheâs been quiet these days, probably lying low. I believe she will find a way to counter Glynnis
After all, how could Glynnis, with her limited intelligence, compete with his ingeniously scheming wife?
No, ex wife
Unexpectedly. Thaddeus felt a pang of sourness in his chest.
That evening, the Abernathy family gathered for a rare dinner at Havenbrook, their monthly ritual of dining with Mr. Hamition.
The atmosphere was seemingly harmonious, even Glynnis exceptionally poured drinks and served food to Marilla as if they were the closest of sisters.
Maria, seting next to Thaddeus, kept her head down and focused on her food, not daring to utter a word
However, she was a girl of great dignity. She did not drink the water Glynnis poured for her, nor did she eat the food Glynnis served her
âDad, Elspeth and he been discussing an important matter recently and have almost made a decision. We came here today to inform you and seek your advice âFrederic, the well mannered gentleman, put his forks down
âYou two have already discussed it. Why do you need to consult me, an old man?â
Hamilton picked up a piece of roast meat and savored it, âWhat canât be solved by your delicate wife? Sheâs been helping you make decisions all along, hasnât she?â
Elspeth forced a dry smile, her eyes flickering with resentment
Every month, the most painful thing for her was to come here to dine with this old man, who always managed to mock her in one way or another, causing her to suffer from insomnia the night before each visit!
When would this old man finally pass away?
Fredric frowned and gave a low, muffled cough. Under the table, he gripped Elspethâs hand âDad, Glynnis is of marriageable age now I think itâs time we started arranging her nuptialâ Glynnisâs rosy cheeks flushed even deeper as she gently bit her l*p
Nuptial
Hartonâs fork paused mid air, his thick eyebrows furrowing. âMy eldest granddaughter is only twenty-five. Sheâs so young. I was hoping to have my girls around me for a few more years before they get hitched! Whatâs the rush, boy?â
1/2
Bender, our Abernathy gels have no trouble catching a suitor Even at fifty-two, theyâre still the belle of the ball. Plenty of su
lined upâ
Suddenly the old man looked suspiciously at Fredric âYouâre not cooking up some business allance as a way out of a corporate crisis, are you?â
Dad, youâre mistaken, our business is doing just fineâ Elspeth quickly put on a fake smile in defense of her husband.
Fredric, let me be clear. Even if the Abernathy Group goes bankrupt tomorrow, you are not to sell off our girls for your own gain! Our daughters are not bargaining chips for business alliances Do you understand?â
âGrandpa, youâre overthinking thisâ
Glynnis quickly put her hands on Hamitionâs arm, giving it a playful shake âMom and Dad are just thinking of my best interests it has nothing to de to get marriedâ
with business. Iâm the one who wants
âGlynnis, do you want to get married?â Hamilton looked surprised
Glynnis blushed and nodded
Ah, women. They grew up so fast
Dad, you really are misunderstanding Fredric. We didnât force Glynnis into anything. This is all her decision. Sheâs in love âElspeth said, her eyes sparkling as she looked at her daughter Hamiltonâs tone changed âOh? Whoâs the lucky lad?â
âYouâre more than familiar with Glynnisâs sweetheart.â
Fredric chuckled, âItâs Jareth, Dadâ
Thaddeus chewed slowly, his beautiful eyes darkening, but he didnât make a sound.
âJareth?â Hamilton widened his eyes in confirmation
Elspeth confirmed, âYes, Dad, itâs Mr. Jarethâ
Clang!
Just then, a loud, out-of-place noise echoed through the room. Everyone turned to see the source
Maria had lost her focus and her hand had sl*pped, causing her fork to fall to the floor!
In the high-brow, etiquette-conscious Abernathy family, this was a grave breach of manners.
1-Iâm sorry!â
Mariaâs face turned deathly pale. She was about to pick up the fork when Thaddeus bent down and picked it up for her
âItâs okay, just get another oneâ He smiled gently at his little sister, relieving her embarrassment
âThank you, Thad âMaria mumbled, her head hanging low.
Glynnisâs eyes shifted towards Marillaâs pale face, her l*ps curling into a smug, disdainful smirk
