Chapter 175


    Chapter 175 I’ll Take Your Word for It


    All of a sudden, she recalled that there was a third person at the auction who basically bid with them


    until the very end. Someone who could afford to raise a bid of a million can’t be any ordinary person.


    “Hey, do you know who the person was who kept raising the bid during the auction?”


    Pierre shook his head. “How would I know when I wasn’t there?”


    “Help me investigate it, then.” This bracelet is indeed priceless, but no one would spend such a fortune


    to bid on it unless he truly loves such a thing and isn’t hurting for money. All of a sudden, Selena found


    this person very much suspicious.


    “Okay, I’ll have someone investigate it. But why do you want this bracelet so much?” Pierre turned the


    bracelet around in his hand. It doesn’t look all that distinctive.


    “This was my mother’s. My mother loved this pair of bracelets, but she sold one of them back then to


    help my father out. After she passed away, the other bracelet went missing as well, so I surmised that


    my father must have sold it.” Selena stared at the bracelet. “There’s still another one, and I’ll definitely


    find it.” After all, Mom didn’t leave much behind after her demise. I remember her always wearing the


    bracelets when I was young, so it’ll also be a balm to my longing for her.


    As Pierre gazed at her mncholic expression, a hint of sympathy shed across his eyes, and he


    caressed her hair. “I’ll help you find it.”

    Pierre arched his eyebrow slightly without saying anything, his eyes fixed on Selena’s cherry lips. Why


    do I feelpelled to have a taste? Leaning over, he nted a kiss on her lips. This unexpected kiss


    caught Selena off guard, and she was stunned for a moment, forgetting to resist though she didn’t


    seem to have any reason to do so either.


    While the rtionship between the two of them swiftly heated up, the situation at Yard Residence was


    somewhat tragic. After the incident at the fashion show, Meredith had been hiding out at home and


    refusing to ept even her usual work, feeling utterly humiliated.


    Jezebelle naturally knew about the incident, but she couldn’t do anything other than cursing Selena out.


    As she sat on the sofa brooding and contemting her next move, Megan barged in while crying.


    “Mom, Finneas… Finneas wants to divorce me!” Megan threw herself into Jezebelle’s arms, weeping


    her heart out. He’s serious this time, having even prepared the divorce agreement!


    “Don’t cry first. Divorce is a huge issue, so it’s up to the older generation to approve of matters


    concerning the younger generation,” Jezebelle said to mollify her.


    “It’s really serious this time, Mom! Even my parents-inw have agreed!” After saying that, Megan


    wailed as she nestled in her embrace.


    “What?!” Jezebelle’s heart jolted. This is bad! If Finneas’ parents have agreed, then it’s really a


    problem.


    Meredith had been irritated these few days, so she came down upon hearing her sister bawling. “Say,


    Megan, can you not cry the moment youe home? We’re not having a funeral here.”


    When she heard her sister’s chastisement, Megan sprang to her feet. “How dare you say that? This is


    all on you. If you could keep Pierre Fowler in line and marry him earlier, the Lake Family wouldn’t dare


    do this to me no matter what!” She pushed all the me on Meredith. All this time, she has been the


    prospective daughter-inw of the Fowler Family and my trump card! Unexpectedly, my trump card is


    gone, so the Lakes stopped taking me seriously!


    “The situation between me and Pierre is only temporary.” Meredith turned her head to the side, never


    having expected her own twin sister to rub salt into her wound at this time.
