Mia’s fingers grazed past the jewelry on her wrist. It didn’t seem like it was a set with her ne.


    Doris‘ eyes were glued to her wrist as she eximed, “Is this Lumiere by Van Boucheron? The bracelet


    he designed for his crush? It’s truly one of a kind!”


    Feeling perplexed, Mia looked at her wrist. She was no jewelry designer, but she had heard of Van


    Boucheron. He was renowned in the world of jewelry design, after all. The Lumiere was among the top


    ten of his best designs, so monumental that it inspired one of Vior’s jewelry designs.


    The other socialites inhaled sharply. Envy bubbled in Sharon’s eyes as she realized how much the


    Lanes


    pampered Mia.


    Eva replied calmly. “Yes, it’s Lumiere. I don’t have a lot of hobbies, but collecting jewelry is one of them.


    I longed to have a sister, and now that I finally have one, I can doll her up with my collection.”


    Doris chuckled and said, “Ms. Delgado is a renowned jewelry collector in Nord City, but she keeps a


    really low profile. If it wasn’t for the Lumiere, I wouldn’t have realized that you’re actually Ms. Delgado,


    Mrs. Lane.”


    “I’ve heard of Ms. Delgado as well. Most famous jewelry are in her collection, so people actually have


    to go to her to borrow her collection if they want to organize an exhibition.”


    Eva replied modestly. “Jewelry collection is just a personal hobby, but I’m d that Mia gets to wear


    them now, giving them a chance to make an appearance again.‘


    “Mr. Lane, you’re blessed to have such a wife.”


    “Mia’s equally fortunate as well. She used to be thedy of the Barrett family before she returned as the


    daughter of the Lanes. Whatever her position may be, she’s exceptional indeed!”


    As the socialitesvished praise on Mia, the tension lingering in the air faded. The Lane brothers


    looked visibly pleased, especially Dominic. The menacing look on his face flipped into satisfaction once


    the


    socialites beganplimenting Mia.


    Mia was filled with a sense of novelty as she saw how the socialites worked their way around words.


    They belittled her back then, yet they kept fawning over her mannerisms and appearance today.


    Sharon felt frustrated. She also wore jewelry from her precious collection, yet they were iparable


    to Mia’s jewelry. Being overshadowed by Mia, whom she ofice bullied and looked down on, was a


    tough pill for her to swallow. With Mia’s six brothers standing next to her, it simply wasn’t possible for


    Sharon to


    express her chagrin.


    Sharon would drown in dread if the topic on Mia’s jewelry dragged on. Thus, she took the initiative to


    avert the topic. “Oh yeah, when are you nning to return to Nord City. Ms. Bowen?”


    Mia replied calmly, “Soon. I’ll go back once I’ve settled my college issues.”


    Another socialite chimed in. “As the daughter of the Lane family who was found after being missing for


    so long, aren’t you all going to hold a grand banquet to celebrate Ms. Bowen’s return?”


    Dominic shot a nce at her and said indifferently. “That’s right.”


    Connor added, “The banquet will be held at Andrews, the most mysterious and extravagant hotel in


    Nord City. Our friends and family, also not missing out some of our significant guests from the upper


    crust, will be invited. By then, we’ll officially introduce Mia as the daughter of the Lane family.”N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
