Chapter 689


    | was stunned and couldn''t help but look at the bracelet on my wrist. This bracelet was a gift from Charles; he gave it to me when


    | entered the Reid family registry four years ago. | rarely wore it, and was only wearing it now as | thought it beautiful when |


    stumbled upon it at home a few days back.


    | really had very limited knowledge when it came to jewelry. | could only judge based on my preferences. | wouldn''t be able to tell


    if something was good or bad piece.


    But after hearing what she said, | couldn''t shake the shock from my bones. "A bracelet worth hundreds of millions of dors?


    That is impossible!"


    No matter how valuable an item was, it was still an object. Weren''t items that were worth hundreds of millions of dors


    considered antiques?


    She rolled her eyes at me and took me for a walk while sharing her jewelry knowledge with me. She started, "This bracelet was


    from the Victorian Era. A century ago, after the civil war ended, thest royal family sold this bracelet to Charles’


    greatgrandfather, who was a general at that time in order to survive. He loved his first wife so much that he gave this pair of


    bracelets to her. Later, when the country gradually stabilized, this bracelet was originally sent to the museum to be collected, but


    since the Reid Family contributed to the country''s establishment, it was left in the Reid Family, allowing the bracelet to be passed


    down from generation to generation."


    "This bracelet was meant to be passed on to the daughter-inw of the Reid Family. Charles was generous to have given it to


    you."


    | took her words to heart. | did not know it at the time, but now | knew in my bones that I should not have epted this bracelet.


    | brushed my fingertips against the bracelet subconsciously, kept silent and smiled.


    Freya''s phone rang and she answered it. | let her have her space, and walked around the shopping mall. The ce was so noisy


    that it made it hard to breathe.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    Everywhere | went, it felt stuffy.


    | leaned against the railing as | scanned the shops on each floor. Hovell was different; shopping vendors were in the alleys


    instead of malls. All they had to do to get whatever they needed was to walk by the alley on their way home.


    As | was lost in thought, Freya suddenly ced her phone next to my ear and teased, "Answer the phone.”


    She caught me off guard, and | had to instantly force myself to answer the phone. | spoke into it unsurely, "Hello!"


    "It''s me!" The man''s voice was deep and familiar. | stared at the space in front of me nkly for a moment. "Hendrix?


    | heard him chuckle, "Why did you switch off your phone? Did youyer enough when you went out? Miss Moore said you''re


    wearing a thin jacket. Are you cold?"


    Only Hendrix''s love for me was meticulous enough for him to take time out of his busy schedule to ask me these kinds of


    questions.


    Seeing Freya smile at me made me a little embarrassed. "My phone is dead so it switched off by itself. I''m not cold. There''s


    heating in the mall, so it''s very warm!"


    He said, "Okay, | will pick you up after work. | had some money transferred to your phone. Don''t try to go all frugal, | can afford


    you splurging.”

    After hanging up, | returned the phone to Freya and said, "Thank you!"


    She put it away, shrugged, and pursed her lips. "It felt like | was being forced to witness PDA."


    I smiled quietly at her.


    As she took my arm to continue her shopping spree, Freya suddenly said, "Arianna, Hendrix really loves you."
