A Billion-Rich Woman Was Chased by Her EX-Husband

Chapter 228

They had never anticipated that Ada Wang would donate the necklace right there in front of everyone!

How could this work?

Skyler spun around and locked eyes with Zoey. From several meters apart, they silently communicated, unable to utter a single word.

Alexa’s work brought the atmosphere of the scene to its peak,

The experts and fans in the jewelry industry all leaned forward, necks craning like long-necked deer, eager to catch a glimpse of the brilliance of the legendary designer’s work.

Joseph and Jerome had long admired the name Alexa, and their silent eyes were now moistened with emotion.

The two men, gripping the sign tightly in their hands, were ready to go.

“Skyler, why are you standing? Hurry and take a seat. Can’t you see everyone’s eyes on you?” Aubree tugged her arm, knowing she wouldn’t be getting back on stage.”

“Mom, something’s happened!” Skyler sat down, her voice quavering.

“Something happen? What was it?”

“This necklace that Ada Wang donated… I gave it to her.”

“You gave

it to her?! Where did you obtain Alexa’s work from?””

Aubree was taken aback, but then she became livid. “You gave her such a valuable necklace! That old woman is a complete waste of a precious gift. She misinterpreted your generosity as ill-will! Is this an insult to you?!”

“You as well, you didn’t return the jewellery that Alexa crafted for your mum, but instead gave it to that actress. I really brought you up for nothing!”

“Mom,” Skyler said, her forehead beading with sweat and her voice barely above a whisper, “that necklace… it’s not real”

“What did you say? Fake?!” Aubree’s heart quivered.

“It was Zoey who assisted me in locating Alexa’s apprentice to fabricate a counterfeit necklace….

“Ada Wang still-hasn’t signed a contract with me. In a state of desperation, I could only think of this plan. I copied Chloe and used Alexa’s jewellery network to win her over…”

“That necklace is really nice. It’s one of Alexa’s less popular pieces, so Ada Wang didn’t take notice of it. I knew that secrets can’t stay hidden forever, but I thought that even if I got caught later, the contract was already signed. Even if Ada Wang wanted to go back on her word, it would be too late.”
