"Assistant Keaton, I advise you to quickly take this piece of glass and go back to where you ca from. Don’t continue to embarrass yourself here. My uncle is still working overti at the company and hasn’t co here yet! There’s no one here to back you up..."
He seed to be persuading Kyle Keaton, but his volu was not low at all.
Sure enough, the people around them all roughly heard the words "Assistant Keaton."
In an instant, people started whispering again.
"So he’s just an assistant? Just now soone said he was from a prestigious family in Westmarch or an affluent family in Esteria! Quite a slap in the face, huh?"
"Really disappointing, I thought he was the young master of so family."
The n mocked and jeered, while the won couldn’t help but sigh.
At this mont, July Quinn grabbed the gift box that Nathan Jacobs had forced back into her hands, ready to present it to Old Master Jacobs.
"Weren’t you the ones who insisted on forcing others to give gifts? Now that the gift is here, you want them to take it back? How does that make sense?"
No matter what others said, July Quinn only knew that her cheap husband had co for her.
So, how could she let him be humiliated with her?
As for whether the jade pendant was genuine...
July Quinn thought that they were overthinking it.
Although Kyle Keaton didn’t flaunt luxury brand logos, everything was basically high-end custom-made.
How could a man like that give away sothing made of glass?
July Quinn’s imposing manner once again aroused nurous discussions around them.
"July Quinn and this assistant must have an unusual relationship, right?"
"Could it be that Master Jacobs broke up with her because she cheated?"
"Even if she cheated, couldn’t she find soone better? She found an assistant, what is she thinking?"
"Growing up in the countryside, what kind of judgnt can she have? A few candies can make her forget everything and lie down willingly."
These remarks were like loud slaps hitting Amanda Ford’s face.
Making her face burn hotly, she completely lost her composure.
"Stop giving it. What’s the point of giving out these fake glass pieces from the market that cost a few dollars each?"
She rushed to July Quinn’s side, trying to take back the jade pendant in her hand to prevent her from embarrassing herself in front of Old Master Jacobs.
But as a result of this back and forth, the jade pendant fell to the ground.
Seeing the pendant shattered into pieces, Amanda Ford nearly lost it.
"I told you not to give it, you can keep this glass item for yourself, your Grandpa Jacobs wouldn’t wear such a thing!"
Today wasn’t just Old Master Jacobs’ birthday, it was also the engagent day for Nathan Jacobs and Nina Quinn.
She really didn’t want July Quinn to offend the old master today, who knows what effect it might have on Nina Quinn’s marriage?
"What’s going on?"
Old Master Jacobs returned to the birthday banquet with his old friends and happened to notice the pendant on the ground, slightly raising his graying eyebrows.
"Grandpa Jacobs, my mom was worried that the small item July and they sent would offend your eyes, that’s why she had no choice but to do so."
Nina Quinn hurried to explain to Old Master Jacobs.
Under Old Master Jacobs’ puzzled gaze and the surrounding scrutinizing eyes, Amanda Ford felt too embarrassed to hold her head high.
But July Quinn only looked at Amanda Ford coldly.
It was Kyle Keaton who voluntarily stepped forward, gently holding July Quinn’s hand.
In Nina Quinn’s eyes, this scene turned into July Quinn looking embarrassed and lost.
Her assistant husband could only use this way to offer comfort.
It was truly embarrassing yet so satisfying.
Nina Quinn smiled and exchanged a secret look with Nathan Jacobs; they both saw the joy of victory in each other’s eyes.
However, it was at this mont that one of Old Master Jacobs’ old friends suddenly bent down and picked up the broken pieces of the pendant.
After examining them carefully, he exclaid, "This isn’t a glass replica, it’s a rare and top-quality imperial green jadeite!"
