Chapter 599
Mia’s fingers grazed past the jewelry on her wrist. It didn’t seem like it was a set with her necklace.
Doris‘ eyes were glued to her wrist as she exclaimed, “Is this Lumiere by Van Boucheron? The bracelet he designed for his crush? It’s truly one of a kind!”
Feeling perplexed, Mia looked at her wrist. She was no jewelry designer, but she had heard of Van Boucheron. He was renowned in the world of jewelry design, after all. The Lumiere was among the top ten of his best designs, so monumental that it inspired one of Vior’s jewelry designs.
The other socialites inhaled sharply. Envy bubbled in Sharon’s eyes as she realized how much the Lanes
pampered Mia.
Eva replied calmly. “Yes, it’s Lumiere. I don’t have a lot of hobbies, but collecting jewelry is one of them. I longed to have a sister, and now that I finally have one, I can doll her up with my collection.”
Doris chuckled and said, “Ms. Delgado is a renowned jewelry collector in Nord City, but she keeps a really low profile. If it wasn’t for the Lumiere, I wouldn’t have realized that you’re actually Ms. Delgado,
Mrs. Lane.”
“I’ve heard of Ms. Delgado as well. Most famous jewelry are in her collection, so people actually have to go to her to borrow her collection if they want to organize an exhibition.”
Eva replied modestly. “Jewelry collection is just a personal hobby, but I’m glad that Mia gets to wear them now, giving them a chance to make an appearance again.‘
“Mr. Lane, you’re blessed to have such a wife.”
“Mia’s equally fortunate as well. She used to be the lady of the Barrett family before she returned as the daughter of the Lanes. Whatever her position may be, she’s exceptional indeed!”
As the socialites lavished praise on Mia, the tension lingering in the air faded. The Lane brothers looked visibly pleased, especially Dominic. The menacing look on his face flipped into satisfaction once the
socialites began complimenting Mia.
Mia was filled with a sense of novelty as she saw how the socialites worked their way around words. They belittled her back then, yet they kept fawning over her mannerisms and appearance today.
Sharon felt frustrated. She also wore jewelry from her precious collection, yet they were incomparable to Mia’s jewelry. Being overshadowed by Mia, whom she ofice bullied and looked down on, was a tough pill for her to swallow. With Mia’s six brothers standing next to her, it simply wasn’t possible for Sharon to
express her chagrin.
