    Chapter 612


    Ryan suddenly got hit with the boredom bug


    Leonardo was like, “Are you two going at it again with your cryptic chit–chat? Mam and Cornelia are


    practically glued together. I get it when they’re talking in codes. But you two? You barely know each


    other Howe you have secrets I’m not privy to?”


    Ryan shrugged. “Give it some time, and you’ll get it.”


    Everyone kept telling him to wait, but he wanted to know right now. Leonardo was about to lose his


    cool. He snapped, “No more ‘give it some time I want to know now!”


    Ryan suggested, “Why don’t you ask Cornelia?”


    Leonardo turned to Comelia. “Cornelia…”


    “Apologies, dear guests!”


    An announcement suddenly interrupted their conversation. “We have an emergency at the birthday


    palty. Please stay put and avoid wandering around”


    The voice belonged to Cameron.


    Hearing the word ‘emergency‘. Cornelia’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately turned to go find


    Marcus, but Leonardo quickly grabbed her “Wait, Cornelia. The announcement said to stay put Where


    are you off to?”


    Cornelia lost her cool. “Let go of me! I have to find Marcus. I cant let anything happen to him.”


    Marcus‘ situation was special, and there were many people who wanted to harm him behind his back.


    Comelia feared that the emergency was about Marcus. She needed to find him and ensure his safety.


    Seeing how flustered Cornelia was, Leonardo held on tighter “Calm down, Cornelia Marcus will be


    fine.”


    “Let me go! I’ll see for myself if he’s fine Just as Corne was trying to wriggle free from Leonardo’s


    grip, Cameron’s voice came again


    “There’s no need for panic. The emergency is not a security issue. My father’s ne for his wife has


    gone missing. We suspect.a thief might’ve sneaked in. Please keep. your belongings safe and watch


    out for unfamiliar faces. If you find any clues, please inform me immediately.”


    Cornelia was speechless. She really wanted to swear.


    A missing ne was just a missing ne. Why called it an emergency? What a drama queen.

    Leonardo said, “Really? All this fuss over a ne?”


    Ryan chimed in. “What if the ne is worth 30 million dors?”


    Leonardo doubted, “30 million dors? I find it hard to believe that Granger would spend that much on


    a ne for ir.”


    Ryan added. “I’m not sure if Granger would do that. But I’ve heard about that ne.”


    Leonardo was curious. “Do tell.”


    Ryan exined, “About a year ago, a mysterious wealthy man paid a fortune for a ne called


    ‘Heavenly Radiance‘. He said it was for his wife. But the man was very secretive, only leaving behind


    two initials, with no other information.”


    Leonardoughed. “That couldn’t be Granger. He’s the type who’d want a horde of journalists around


    even when he’s being intimate with his wife. He wouldn’t miss a chance to show off and opt for


    secrecy”


    Ryan continued, “The ne was thest piece by famous Parisian designer Wand, and it was his


    proudest achievement. Wand spent three years painstakingly crafting the ne for the woman


    he loved most, naming it “Heavenly Radiance‘. It symbolized eternal love, or more urately, love that


    never fades.”


    30 million dors? Paris? A mysterious wealthy man? A ne for his wife?


    After hearing Ryan’s story, Cornelia seemed to have something on her mind, but before she could


    speak…


    A group of people walked hastily towards them. Among them was a woman in ck whom Cornelia


    had never seen before. She pointed at Cornelia and imed, “It’s her. I saw her with my own eyes. She


    stole Mrs Reese’s ne.”
