Chapter 1293 - Chapter 1293 Chapter 1293 Is Miss Reiser Afraid

Chapter 1293: Chapter 1293: Is Miss Reiser Afraid? Chapter 1293: Chapter 1293: Is Miss Reiser Afraid? “It’s her! She wore a fake ‘Combustion Heart’ to the charity dinner. Miss Reiser thought this occasion was special and not suitable for wearing a fake, so she advised her to take off the necklace to avoid embarrassment later. But she not only refused to listen but also claimed that her necklace was genuine, implying that Miss Reiser’s was the fake!”

Hearing Rae say this, Joyce Jones, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks. He slowly turned around and fixed his gaze on Fiona Reiser’s necklace, “Combustion Heart?”

Fiona didn’t feel nervous at all. Mr. Jones was a distinguished guest invited by her father, and her father must have made plans beforehand. If there were to be an appraisal on the spot, Mr. Jones would undoubtedly declare her necklace to be genuine without hesitation.

Moreover, Mr. Jones had dealt with her father before and had agreed to attend the charity dinner, which showed his great respect for her father. Naturally, he would not side with an outsider.

If Mr. Jones were to publicly declare Xaviera Evans’s necklace as a fake, she would have no way to defend herself.

Fiona’s eyes were slightly narrowed, feeling somewhat triumphant as she looked at Xaviera. Although her father had repeatedly warned her not to make an enemy of Xaviera, she couldn’t control herself. On what grounds could Xaviera take the place of Mrs. Mamet? On what grounds could she stand by Caleb Mamet’s side legitimately? What was so good about her?

Fiona had thought that her return to China would rekindle her past relationship with Caleb, but to her surprise, he was already married, and the couple’s relationship was very strong. She had to constantly hide her feelings and address Xaviera respectfully as Mrs. Mamet, even sending a wedding gift to curry favor with her.

She couldn’t accept it!

Now she couldn’t openly be an enemy of Xaviera, but she could make her embarrass herself in public, letting everyone know that Xaviera wasn’t qualified to be Caleb’s wife. Watching her reputation shattered, when the time was ripe, she would kick Xaviera aside and become the woman by Caleb’s side.

Her thoughts occupied her mind like a raging fire, and Fiona averted her gaze, gently saying, “Yes, Combustion Heart.”

A hint of surprise flickered in Mr. Jones’s eyes as he looked at her necklace.

Rae, who was beside her, immediately instigated, “Mr. Jones, Fiona’s necklace is the genuine one. Miss Evans is wearing a counterfeit, which is an insult to the charity dinner. She doesn’t take the Reiser family seriously.”

“Moreover, she must know that you’d attend this banquet. Still, she wears a fake in front of such a distinguished jewelry appraiser like you. It’s clear disrespect to you!”

Mr. Jones looked up slightly, glancing at Xaviera with an amused tone in his voice, “She’s wearing a counterfeit?”

For some reason, hearing Mr. Jones’s voice, Mia Reiser felt inexplicably nervous. She desperately hoped Mr. Jones would reach a conclusion, wanting to see Xaviera lose face and be driven away by everyone.

Mr. Jones laughed heartily, “Miss Evans, do you know what happens when someone wears a fake piece of jewelry in front of me?”

Everyone’s eyes were on Xaviera, her back straight, her figure perfectly proportioned, the gorgeous ruby necklace making her skin appear snow-white, and her whole body seemed to glow.

“Not quite sure.” Xaviera shook her head indifferently.

Mr. Jones smiled slightly, “It seems Miss Evans is very confident.”

Xaviera blinked, speaking casually, “Because I’m sure my necklace is real. But Miss Reiser publicly declared my necklace to be fake. Isn’t that too arbitrary?”

Everyone was dumbfounded. With Mr. Jones there, she still adamantly refused to admit it? Why was she so confident that her necklace was genuine?

Fiona subconsciously looked at Mr. Jones, biting her teeth secretly and fueling the discord further, “Xaviera, how can you talk like that in front of Mr. Jones? Whether it’s real or fake, Mr. Jones has the final say. You shouldn’t…”

“Since that’s the case, why waste any more words, Miss Reiser? Just ask Mr. Jones to appraise it quickly. I think that since you invited Mr. Jones, he won’t refuse. Or is it that you’re scared and deliberately stalling?” Xaviera mercilessly interrupted her, her tone full of mockery.

Fiona’s heart shuddered. She had thought Xaviera wouldn’t dare have the necklace appraised and was wondering how to make her agree. But Xaviera had unwittingly fallen into her trap.

She wanted Mr. Jones to appraise it, to announce the final verdict in front of everyone. But she was the gentle and kind young Miss Reiser, and she couldn’t force Xaviera to do it. Not only did Xaviera agree, but she even urged the appraiser to act quickly.

Didn’t Xaviera know that since the Reiser family had invited Mr. Jones, it meant they were close, and he would side with the Reisers, never with Xaviera.
