Goodbye, My Love

The crowd’s attention suddenly shifted to Marina. The necklace around her neck was exactly the same as Loraine’s.

To deem them identical would be to belittle the majesty of the Stellar

Galaxy. A closer comparison revealed that Marina’s necklace diamonds were inferior versions, their radiance underwhelming under the illumination. Meanwhile, Loraine’s necklace sparkled brilliantly, mirroring the truly magnificent galaxy.

This comparison left no doubt in anyone’s mind about which was the original, and which was the counterfeit. Contemptuous stares fell upon

Marina, her deceit laid bare.

Marina’s complexion drained of color, and she swayed unsteadily.

She had never anticipated Loraine’s presence at such a_ small celebration dinner, let alone that she would be wearing that necklace!

Marina’s gaze fell to her own necklace, and then drifted to Loraine’s.

Envy surged within her as she imagined Marco buying and gifting the necklace to Loraine.

Colette found herself most flabbergasted in the room. Her previous boastful comments felt like a resounding slap to her own face, each word returning to haunt her.

Colette’s expression contorted in fury as she turned to Marina and demanded, “Marina, what’s the meaning of this?”

Feeling the scrutinizing gazes from everyone in the room, Marina was on edge. She retorted defensively, “Loraine’s necklace is a sham, mine is the authentic one!”

Loraine swiftly understood the situation.

She cast a mischievous glance at Marina, her eyes alight with amusement.

When Loraine received the gift from Marco, she didn’t actually want it.

Master Laims’ designs, though renowned, were beyond her spending preference.

Yet Marco insisted she accept the gift, and Loraine did not wish to offend him by declining.

Marco’s gift was meticulously wrapped and securely sealed, accompanied by certification papers for the jewelry and the exclusive signature of

Master Laims on her design. Meanwhile, Marina claimed Loraine’s gift to be a counterfeit and caused a commotion, behaving like an ignorant, bold clown, which was quite amusing.

Considering all this, Loraine confidently advanced towards Marina, who started to recede, her face pale.

As she drew near, Loraine noticed the necklace that Marina was wearing, and simply chuckled while shaking her head.
