Marco, on the other hand, knew that he was the one who made Loraine suffer so much and he couldn’t


    help but feel ashamed.


    Meanwhile, Florence was taken aback. This was the first time she had been refused so rudely.


    She felt humiliated and said sarcastically, “Well, I didn’t mean to choose you. But since you have said


    no, please don’t get close to Grady in the future, so you don’t mislead him.”


    Florence’s statement made Grady frown.


    Even Marco’s face darkened in displeasure and he warned her coldly,

    “Mrs. Cruz, behave yourself. It was Grady who invited Loraine. You’d better keep an eye on your own


    son before ming others.”


    “Yes, I invited Loraine,” Grady readily concurred.


    “Why do I have such a disobedient son?” Florence murmured under her breath, her hands trembling in


    anger. But she could not refute what had just been said. She could only shout at the butler behind her,


    “Why are you still standing there? Take the ne back immediately!”


    “Yes, madam.”


    The butler hurried forward to take the box from Grady, and Grady didn’t resist this time.


    Since Loraine had refused him, he had no reason to give her the ne.


    But before the butler could leave, Florence stopped her. “Wait. Take out the ne and wipe it


    carefully, just in case it has been stained with someone’s bad luck!”


    The butler broke into a cold sweat, but he had no choice but to do as he was ordered. He took out the


    ne and carefully wiped it.


    It was an iparably bright diamond ne, made of twentyrge square diamonds. The most


    eye-catching one was undoubtedly therge pillow-shaped diamond in the front of the ne, which


    was shining brightly even in the dim light.


    No wonder it was called the Sea Of Light.


    Florence looked at Lorainecently as the jewelry was being cleaned.


    She ordered for it to be brought out because she wanted Loraine to see what kind of heirloom she had


    missed.


    But the expression on Loraine’s face was one of indifference. There was no sign of the regret that


    Florence wanted to see.


    In response to Florence’s attempt to provoke her, Loraine lifted her eyebrows and said calmly, “Mrs.


    Cruz, I’d like to remind you that as long as a diamond is well maintained, it will not be so easy for it to


    get stained unless it’s of low quality.”


    “Loraine, you’re talking about nonsense,” Florence snapped, immediately flying into a rage.


    But Loraine was still calm and even cautioned her casually, “Mrs. Cruz, you’d better control your


    temper. If you get angry, your face and neck will secrete more skin fat and sweat, and that’s Likely to


    hurt the jewelry.”


    Florence became even more furious. How dare Loraine belittle the heirloom of the Cruz family?


    “Don’t talk nonsense about what you don’t understand! The Sea Of Light is the most precious treasure


    of the Cruz family. Every diamond on the ne is rare and natural. The purity and cleanness of the


    main diamond are unmatched anywhere in the world. Don’t be too arrogant just because you have the


    support of the Torres family. The Cruz family has a long history and a strong background. A rich and


    bloodless upstart like you can’tpare with us!”
