Chapter 215

Mia Nolan was shocked.

"Is... is what you said true?"

"Anyway, I’ve been observing for a few days, and it’s 100% not fake. If you have any doubts, you can get it appraised."

Mia’s pupils dilated, and she was dumbfounded.

Raine Nolan had no reason to deceive her with this matter.

So, those earrings... are genuine!

"There were so many people competing that day. Besides me, Robert Foster’s brother also wanted them, but in the end, someone else bid for them. I’m really jealous of your mother."

Mia looked at her, astonished, and after a moment, asked, "You should know who bought it though; you were there at the time."

Raine stomped her foot and turned to face her: "Actually, I don’t. I wanted the earrings, but my mom was the one bidding. I had a stomachache and went to the restroom. By the time I came back, it was already over, so I didn’t notice who bought them."

After saying this, she looked curious: "You say that, so don’t you know who gave them?"

Mia swallowed and said, "I do."

"Who is it? Do I know them?" Raine asked with a smile.

Mia’s emotions were a bit overwhelming, and she shook her head, muttering, "It couldn’t be her, how could she afford it?"

"Who is it, after all?" Raine asked.

Mia pressed her lips together, not saying anything.

Raine said, "Since you don’t want to say, I won’t ask anymore, but remember to come to my house after school to do the game. I specifically chose you because I think highly of you."

After saying this, she glanced at the time, "I have to go now; Cherry and the others are waiting for me to have dinner."

Mia was still trapped in shock and didn’t respond.

After she walked away, Mia regained her senses and watched her back, her mind still in a daze.

With this state of mind, she went straight to Lilian Pearce’s dormitory.

Since the quarrel, she had been sulking and not coming here.

Now, the rich aroma of bone broth wafted from inside, making one’s mouth water just from smelling it.

The door wasn’t closed, just a cloth curtain blocking it. She lifted it and walked in.

Lilian was busy in the small kitchen, head down.

Suddenly, she glanced over inadvertently.

Mia hesitated and then awkwardly turned away.

Lilian took a deep breath, "You’re back, go wash your hands and eat."

Mia knew that in her mother’s tone, she hadn’t taken the quarrel to heart.

It had always been the same since she was young.

Every time they had a quarrel, Lilian would never apologize. She would simply say, "wash your hands and eat," and that would be the end of the quarrel.

Mia felt uncomfortable, but right now, her focus was more on her mother’s earrings.

That pair of delicate earrings seemed a bit different from before.

Indescribably noble.

"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Hurry up and wash your hands, eat up and go to nap, you still have class in the afternoon."

Mia walked straight over and directly took off one of the earrings, placing it in her palm to look at.

Lilian was surprised, "What are you doing?"

Mia pursed her lips, and a hint of anger seeped out from her chest, "Mom, I’m asking you, is Chloe Collins’ family really in a difficult situation?"

From the first year of high school, when Chloe first came to their house as a guest, her mother had told her that Chloe was a pitiful child, abandoned by her parents and living in a difficult financial situation, mainly living in Harville Temple. Their family should take care of her more.

Although she was unwilling, she initially sympathized with Chloe and acquiesced to her mother’s actions.

Now, if she thought that Chloe was not poor, she’d be furious.

What was this all about these years? Deliberately winning her mother’s sympathy and stealing her mother’s love?
