Goodbye, My Love

Marina seemed to understand what Laura was saying, but not entirely. It appeared she had no choice but to continue to engage Colette.

Right at that moment, Colette sent her another message.

Although they were not genuine friends, they knew each other’s interests well. Colette, therefore, reached out to her on a topic she knew would intrigue her. “Marina, have you heard about the Latest creation by Master Laims, the renowned jeweler? It’s called the Stellar

Galaxy necklace. It’s one limited edition piece that’s said to be impossible to buy even with all the money in the world!”

Marina’s heart immediately stirred with desire. Although she had a wardrobe filled with Luxurious clothes, they were outdated. With her former friends turning their backs on her, it had become increasingly difficult for her to stay updated on the latest trends and exclusive luxury items, which were primarily known and discussed within the upper echelons of society.

As the conversation continued, however, Marina’s initial excitement was dampened by a sense of frustration. She couldn’t help but express her grievances, saying, “What’s the point of knowing about it? It’s not like I can afford it. Even if I already knew about it, it would only make me feel worse.”

Marina did not dare to ask Liza for money because she was still torturing her and Laura. As for Marco, he wouldn’t give her any money.

Colette, unaware of Marine’s family situation, kept bringing Marco up in conversation and made determined attempts at flattery, saying,

“Although Master Laims’ jewelry is hard to come by, it wouldn’t be too difficult for the Bryant family to get it. Just give your brother some puppy eyes and he’Ll definitely buy it for you.”

She then continued to entice her further. “Oh and by the way, I heard that Marco is already in talks with Master Laims to acquire it.”

Marina’s face darkened as she read the message.

She knew that Marco wouldn’t buy it for her; it was most likely meant for Loraine.

The mere thought of Marco spending money on Loraine instead of her hurt her to the core. Overcome with jealousy, Marina sought comfort from

Laura, pouring out her frustrations with tearful words. “I’ll go talk to Grandma! I’ll tell her how Marco is recklessly spending money on

Loraine! Master Laims’ designs are very expensive. How can he buy one for Loraine!”

Seeing that her daughter was in great distress, Laura quickly came up with a clever plan.

“Marina, although everyone knows that your brother is planning to buy the necklace at an astronomical price, they don’t know that it’s for Loraine. Why don’t we turn things around by buying a replica of it?”

Marina was puzzled by the suggestion. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“A replica? What’s the point of buying a fake?”

Laura proceeded to explain the reasoning behind her plan. “Think about it. When you flaunt the replica to your friends, they’ll naturally assume that your brother bought the original for you. What would that imply? It would imply that you two have made up! Once people in our circle believe that, they’ll fawn over us again, just like before.”

Marina’s eyes lit up at the prospect. Ever since the scandal, she had been completely isolated from the elite social circles. The thought of regaining her status and connections filled her with excitement, as she nodded eagerly in agreement.

Two days later, the news of the celebration banquet for the finalized

White Cloud Airport project, jointly organized by the Bryant Group and the Universe Group, spread like wildfire throughout Vagow. It became the talk of the town, with every business in town eager to secure an invitation to the event.
