Love's Change of Heart

Chapter 653 Even the Gods Were Jealous

2.00PM, Saturday.

Charlotte and Leanna arrived at the jewelry gallery listed on the invitation. As Leanna expected, many designers had received the same invitation. She was greeted by many familiar faces the moment she stepped out of the car. There were also quite a few celebrities invited, including Tina.

A group of bodyguards escorted Tina into the building as soon as she stepped out of the car. She did not spare a glance at the people surrounding her, so she overlooked Leanna and Charlotte.

Seeing that, Charlotte curiously asked, “Is she someone to keep hidden from society and the sun? Why do they keep her surrounded?”

Leanna chuckled upon hearing her remarks. “That is likely.”

“Poor unfortunate soul,” Charlotte said with sympathy.

“Let’s head inside,” Leanna said.

It could not be considered large or small because it was a private gallery and was only large enough to fit a few dozen people in the building. The interior lighting was dim and of a cool white hue. The jewelry was displayed in glass cases that were subtly illuminated from below. In addition, an employee stood by each glass showcase to field inquiries from the invited designers.

Leanna knew most of the history behind the jewelry pieces being showcased, but there were some she had never seen before.

Suddenly, Charlotte stopped before the glass cases and said to her, “This piece is so beautiful, Leanna.”

When she heard that, Leanna walked over to find a ring within the glass showcase. In contrast to the elaborate jewelry pieces in the gallery, the ring appeared rather plain, except for the pink gemstone set in the center. The ring’s beauty consisted entirely of its minute, intricate details. It was regarded as one of the rings that captivated amateurs, while experts were subconsciously drawn to it.

Seeing their interest, the employee standing beside the showcase introduced the ring. “You have great tastes. This is the late Madame’s favorite ring before she passed away. She loved it so much that she could not bear to wear it.”

“Very well.”

the event was at risk of being canceled because no one wanted to donate anything important. After discussing it with her husband, the woman who was proposed to at the time decided to donate her engagement ring. She said that she and her husband were thrilled with their life, so the ring should go on to help those who needed more help than she did.
