Chapter 1288: Chapter 1288: Fiona Reiser Runs into the Barrel of a Gun Chapter 1288: Chapter 1288: Fiona Reiser Runs into the Barrel of a Gun At 8 pm, the guests entered the banquet hall one after another, and Wayne Reiser and Mrs. Reiser were talking to the guests in the center of the hall with a gentle smile on their faces.

Fiona Reiser and Mia Reiser were chatting with a group of upper-class sons and daughters, and the scene was lively.

On the other side, Caleb Mamet had already entered a luxurious private room through a special passage. As soon as Wayne Reiser heard that Caleb had arrived, he immediately left everyone and went upstairs, warmly greeting him: “Mr. Caleb Mamet, I’m so happy you could come!”

Mrs. Reiser smiled gently and ordered her servant to bring Xaviera some pastries and fruit tea, asking her to feel at home.

It must be said that these two acted well, and even Xaviera was almost deceived by their hypocritical appearance. The Reiser family was at the pinnacle of pretending to be kind.

After they left, Xaviera leaned back on the sofa and took out the necklace from her bag, ready to put it on, when the chatter of passers-by came from outside.

“Have you guys ever heard of Doctor Faces?”

“Of course, she restored that torn scroll, which caused a sensation in the industry at that time!”

“I wonder which family’s daughter she is, not only restoring the scroll but also generously donating a valuable ruby necklace called Combustion Heart.”

“I heard that the necklace is worth over a billion dollars; I don’t know who has it now. I really want to see what the necklace looks like, if it’s really as stunningly beautiful as the legend.”

Xaviera pricked up her ears, listening to the praise of the crowd, and smiled bashfully. It seemed that everyone had heard about the necklace. If they knew that Doctor Faces was sitting right here, they would definitely break down the door.

Had Caleb deliberately released the news about the necklace to make Wayne Reiser keep it? When the necklace dazzled the audience later, Wayne would naturally find it difficult to sell it.

Just as Xaviera was about to ask Caleb, a sudden voice came from outside the door: “Today we can see ‘Combustion Heart’ because the necklace is in Fiona Reiser’s hands!”

Xaviera’s expression suddenly froze, and she couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

“The Reiser family donates so much money every year and has always lived a frugal life; why would Miss Reiser buy such an expensive necklace?”

“What’s so strange about that? The Reiser family has so many businesses at home and abroad. They can definitely afford a necklace, and they bought it for charity, not to show off.”

“Really? Miss Reiser is going to donate ‘Combustion Heart’?”

There was surprise and admiration in the voices of the crowd, “The Reiser family is so kind and compassionate! They have been giving generously for so many years, donating money and goods, and organizing other businessmen to donate together. A family like Reiser’s deserves to be wealthy.”

Hearing the discussion, Xaviera looked at the necklace in the box and sneered in her heart. Fiona had walked into a trap.

The necklace was given away by her as Doctor Faces, and it was designed with Buck Drew during her time in Glaze. Others might not have seen the necklace, but as the original owner, how could she not tell the difference between the genuine and the fake?

Moreover, the necklace was bought by Caleb to give to her; how could Caleb possibly give her a fake? So it was obvious that the necklace in Fiona’s hands was the fake.

Perhaps Fiona knew that the necklace in her hands was fake, and she did this to add another stroke of kindness to the Reiser family’s reputation, so that everyone would know that they were kind-hearted, willing to donate something so valuable and collectible.

Xaviera pondered for a moment, then suddenly brightened up, “Caleb, I’m going out for some fresh air.”

“What’s wrong? Is it stuffy in here or do you have something else?” Caleb looked at her with interest. His eyes seemed to have seen through her thoughts.

Xaviera kept her face unchanged and blinked innocently, “What could I possibly have going on? I’m just going out because it looks lively outside; I just want to take a look. Am I going to fight someone at the banquet hall?”

Caleb stared at her for a few seconds, then looked away, a smile playing at the corners of his lips, “Xaviera, I heard that a famous jewelry appraiser is coming tonight. This appraiser had already settled abroad, but returned to our country unexpectedly a year ago and is now preparing to develop abroad. Did you know?”

Xaviera squeezed a smile on her face and softly replied, “Yes, I knew!”

“I also heard that the appraiser has seen ‘Combustion Heart.'”

Xaviera maintained her smile but didn’t say anything, and the two stared at each other silently until Caleb turned away, his ears flushing red, “Go have fun.”
