Chapter 114
Diana’s pov
“Nora Stern, the globally renowned jewelry designer?”
“I thought she looked familiar just now, but because she was standing with Diana, I didn’t dare to
recognize her.”
“Who would have thought that Nora Stern, the famous jewelry designer, is actually Diana’s friend!”
“So, what kind of person is Diana after all?”
“Well, what do you think now? Do you still believe I know nothing andck the qualifications to judge
authenticity?” Nora raised her lips, calmly looking at Avia. Avia couldn’t find words, her finely made–
up face filled with astonishment and confusion.
The surrounding discussions continued, hammering on Avia’s already fragile nerves
like a relentless hammer.
“With Nora’s influence in the jewelry design world and her research on jewelry; if she says Diana’s
crown is real, then it must be true.”
“In that case… Luna Avia’s crown is…”
“Fake.”
“Oh my God! What is this? Pot calling the kettle ck?”
“No! I didn’t!”
Avia’s eyes were red, and she seemed to have just regained her senses from shock, hastily
defending herself.

“Just because Nora Stern said it doesn’t mean it’s true, right? Nora is Diana’s friend. Who knows if
she intentionally used me to protect Diana?”
“Avia makes sense. After all, she is Alpha Nathan’s fiancée, raised by Mrs. Wayne herself. It’s
impossible for her to wear fake items.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“Is there a misunderstanding in all of this?”
“I, for one, don’t believe Luna Avia would do something as absurd as wearing fake items to an
engagement banquet.”
Seeing someone speak up for her, Avia regained her confidence.
She put on an innocent look, wiped away imaginary tears, and used, “I did want to invite Ms.
Stern to design jewelry for my engagement banquet. I contacted her several times, and my attitude
was very humble, but… but she…”
Avia’s voice choked.
“But she joined forces with Diana to insult me, saying she didn’t care about the price
I offered. Maybe… maybe Diana gave her more money…”
Avia didn’t continue, but everyone understood her implication.
“Did Diana bribe Nora?”
“Diana can afford a dress worth seven billion, so bribing Nora Stern is not impossible.”
“I never expected a renowned jewelry designer to be a morally corrupt woman!”
“I used to like her designs, but now, thinking about it makes me sick…”
“I’ll never support her designs again!”
“Nora Stern should be arrested and thrown into prison with Diana!”
A hint of satisfaction shed in Avia’s eyes, but she didn’t show it. Instead, she continued to pretend
to be a victim, seeking sympathy from everyone.
Mrs. Wayne embraced Avia, consoling her incessantly,,“Good child, we all know you’ve been
wronged. Mom won’t let these bullies off the hook. Someone, arrest these two wretches for me!”
“Yes!”
With Mrs. Wayne’smand, several bodyguards rushed towards me and Nora. “Let’s see who
dares?” My patience was exhausted, and I coldly stared at the approaching bodyguards.
The next moment, they all stood frozen in ce, not daring to move.
“Is it just my imagination?” Someone said hesitantly, “I seem to… feel Alpha aura from Diana!”
“I… I feel it too.”
“Who is Diana? Why does she have Alpha aura?”
“Combining Diana’s wealth, could she be―”
“No way!” Kate screamed, interrupting others‘ spections, even though she harbored doubts
herself.
Despite her own skepticism, she chose to speak with unwavering confidence, “There are many
people here with Alpha aura. How do you know it must be Diana? She… even if Diana is wealthy,
her money must be ill–gotten! Diana is adept at seducing men; her money muste from sleeping
around!”
To support her ims, Kate even started to speak indiscreetly.
“Don’t you remember? A year ago, Diana seduced Alpha Ma from de Moon Pack…‘
Kate couldn’t finish hef sentence.
Because of Marc’s subtle hint, he coughed lightly at this moment, attracting everyone’s attention.
“Seduced who?” Marc’s cold, sharp gaze pierced Kate, one hand around April’s
waist, and he said in a deep voice, “My wife is standing by my side. Miss, be careful with your
words. If you upset my wife or strain our rtionship, my temper might be more ruthless than you
imagine.”
Kate’s neck shrank, and she sat down on the red carpet in fright.
Even though everyone assumed Alpha Marc took me away in public because I was his mistress,
Kate was the first to mention it so explicitly in such a grand setting, ignoring the onlookers, thus
provoking someone she couldn’t afford to offend. “I… I was just talking nonsense…” Kate mumbled
fearfully, lowering her head. “Oh, so it was nonsense. I thought you were trying to use me of
marital infidelity,” Marc smiled, then turned his gaze to Nathan, jokingly adding, “I always said I’m
not Alpha Nathan, who revels in romantic affairs. How could I possibly have a hobby like infidelity?”
For a moment, the entire scene fell silent.
I saw several guests closest to me covering their ears, silently murmuring, “I didn’t hear anything. I
didn’t hear anything…”
Some even turned away, choosing the method of “not seeing” as a way to avoid being involved in
the conflict between the two top Alph’as.
Honestly, I thought Nathan, with his proud personality, would start a fight with Marc upon hearing
his overt insult. But the reality was different–Nathan didn’t react at all. Faced with Marc’s sarcasm,
he didn’t retort. Only the color of his eyes dimmed a bit more.
It was as if he admitted to his past misdeeds.
I gave a cold, wry smile, then turned to Marc, shaking my head to signal that I would handle the
rest.
After receiving my gaze, Marc nced mockingly at Kate, ring at her until she almost bowed her
head to the ground. Only then did he slowly retract his gaze, lowering his head to fiddle with April’s
fingers.
I cleared my throat.
“Make a call.” I said, “Since we all believe our crowns are genuine, let’s call the brand owner of
‘Ocean Heart‘ and let them make the decision.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the blood drained from Avia’s face once again.
