Chapter 1290: Chapter 1290: Wearing a Fake Item and Losing Face! Chapter 1290: Chapter 1290: Wearing a Fake Item and Losing Face! Fiona Reiser spoke gently: “That’s right, it’s a unique piece, and the gemstones on the necklace are also absolutely distinctive. You can’t find anything more perfect than this.”

“You guys, look…” Suddenly, someone pointed to a place not far away and exclaimed in surprise, “That Miss is wearing a necklace that seems… identical to Miss Reiser’s, isn’t it?”

Everyone immediately turned to look. Fiona Reiser’s heart trembled, and she hurriedly turned to look as well.

Xaviera Evans leaned against a sofa by herself, wearing a pearl white off-shoulder dress. It was simple yet luxurious, drawing people’s attention to the necklace around her neck, shimmering red, accentuating her white skin, like a fairy descent to the mortal world.

That necklace and Miss Reiser’s were almost exactly the same!

“How can there be another one?”

“Would the Reiser family really deceive people? But that Miss is wearing an identical necklace. What exactly is going on?”

“Whose daughter is that Miss?”

As the daughter of the Reiser family, wearing a billion-dollar ‘Combustion Heart’ necklace, Fiona naturally became the brightest presence. Yet now, there was another Miss wearing the same necklace at the party. Since it was supposed to be a unique piece, one of them must be fake.

At the moment Fiona saw Xaviera, her heart seemed to be struck heavily. Could it be that Xaviera’s necklace was genuine?

Impossible! Her father giving her the necklace meant that he was confident that the real ‘Combustion Heart’ would not appear anymore. Moreover, the mysterious person who bought that necklace years ago had already gone abroad and could not possibly be Caleb Mamet.

Fiona’s face eased a little as she gradually calmed down.

Everyone stared at Xaviera. She rarely participated in upper-class gatherings, and none of the noble ladies and Mr. Mamet present had ever met her before. So when they saw her wearing a ruby necklace, they instantly thought that her necklace was counterfeit.

Just as someone was about to ask Fiona about her identity, Fiona warmly greeted her: “Xaviera, when did you arrive? Why didn’t you come find me?”

Xaviera raised her eyes and smiled at Fiona, but said nothing.

Facing Xaviera’s cold attitude, Fiona’s smile became a little stiff, “What, did you come alone?”

A noble lady nearby asked with a furrowed brow: “Fiona, who is she?”

“She is…” Fiona hesitated for a moment. If she said that Xaviera was Caleb’s wife, everyone would naturally look up to her, so she changed her tone: “You’ve all heard of the Hughes family, haven’t you? She’s Mrs. Nina Hughes’ adopted daughter.”

Although the people present had never met Xaviera, they had all heard of the scandal surrounding the Hughes family – someone had impersonated Nidya, and the real Nidya was missing. Now that Xaviera was no longer Nidya’s biological daughter, she could only call herself Nina’s adopted daughter.

In their eyes, such an identity was not qualified to attend upper-class gatherings, and how could such a woman possibly buy a billion-dollar necklace? Even if she really had the money, how could she outbid the Reiser family?

One was Miss Reiser, and the other was the adopted daughter of a declining family. Both were wearing the same necklace, and it was clear who was wearing the genuine one and who the fake.

At this moment, someone said sarcastically: “If you can’t afford valuable jewelry, you don’t need to wear it. Nobody will laugh at you. But wearing a counterfeit is just disgraceful!”

“I guess she didn’t know that Miss Reiser would be wearing the ‘Combustion Heart’ at the party and didn’t expect to run into her. This is really awkward.”

Fiona’s eyes were full of helplessness and pity. She waved to people who were talking and stepped forward, whispering softly: “Xaviera, I think you must have been deceived. There are many counterfeits on the market, and ordinary people can’t tell. If you really like this necklace, I can lend you mine for now. You should take off the fake one first.”

As she spoke, Fiona immediately tried to remove her own necklace.

Xaviera glanced at her. What was Fiona playing at pretending in front of her! Knowing full well that she was Caleb’s wife, yet choosing not to tell the others and referring to her as a member of the Hughes family, did she think that without Caleb’s identity, she would be helpless?

Fiona stared intently at Xaviera, even if Xaviera were to say that she was Caleb’s wife, it would be too late. As everyone now suspected that she wore counterfeit jewelry, no one had ever seen the real Combustion Heart, so it all came down to who they believed.

She took off the necklace and handed it to Xaviera, smiling gently, “Xaviera, I’ll lend you my necklace for now.”

Fiona’s kindness made other noble ladies envious. They also wanted to wear the Combustion Heart, as it was every girl’s dream. How could the woman wearing counterfeit jewelry so easily put on the Combustion Heart?
