Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Three days later, there was news about the missing necklace from Song Corporation. It was the highlight of an upcoming international auction in G City.

Song Fan returned ho with the auction flyer in hand.

“Why are you back so early today?” Song Kai hadn’t seen Song Fan co ho this early in days. Knowing she’d been having a tough ti, he tried to cheer her up. “Your Fourth Brother just ordered a brand-new necklace for you yesterday…”

He was about to brag about the trendy necklace he had picked out when he saw the auction flyer in Song Fan’s hand.

“Little sister, what do you want to buy? These are all jewelry pieces,” Song Kai said, taking the flyer from her.

Then he gasped, pointing at the flyer. “Isn’t this the missing necklace, the phoenix one?”

Hearing the word “phoenix,” ng Yu hurried over and snatched the flyer. She was shocked to see the phoenix necklace. How could this be?

ng Yu was stunned. She had given the necklace to Xu Wen. How was it now at an auction?

She suddenly panicked. Could Xu Wen have given her the real necklace and tricked her into thinking it was fake? If this ca to light, she’d be the one in trouble.

ng Yu pointed at the necklace and looked at Song Fan but couldn’t say a word.

“Yes, that’s the necklace,” Song Fan said, seeming relieved. “The thief must have known it was valuable and sent it to the auction to fetch a high price.”

“Fortunately, the thief did that. The police have already intervened and contacted the auction house in G City,” Song Fan continued without looking at ng Yu. “As long as it’s confird to be the necklace stolen from the company, it will be retrieved.”

Hearing that the necklace could be retrieved, ng Yu was terrified. If the necklace was returned, whether genuine or fake, she’d be in deep trouble.

“This… This can’t be real, right?” ng Yu felt weak and sank onto the sofa. “My necklace was stolen, and this one shows up. It’s too coincidental. It could be a replica.”

She refused to believe the necklace was genuine. If it was confird as real, the police investigation would implicate her.

“It must be real. An auction of this caliber has professional jewelers who authenticate items to international standards. There’s no way they’d make a mistake.”

Song Fan seed to emphasize, “They’re much more professional than insurance company appraisers.”

As she finished speaking, ng Yu felt a chill. She realized Xu Wen had never intended to help her sincerely. She had been foolish to think she could use the necklace to scam the insurance company.

If the necklace was proven fake, it would be insurance fraud. If proven real, it would be theft. Either way, she would end up in prison.

Song Fan watched ng Yu’s changing expressions, secretly pleased. It confird her suspicions that ng Yu and Xu Wen didn’t fully trust each other.

Feigning illness, ng Yu hurried back to her room and called Xu Wen.

“You said the necklace was fake. Why is it at an auction?” ng Yu’s voice was sharp, barely keeping it low to avoid shouting.

Xu Wen, confused by the call, replied, “Necklace? The necklace is with . What auction are you talking about? Are you confused?”

But ng Yu no longer trusted her. “Are you trying to trick into reporting the necklace stolen, only to auction it off and send to prison?”

“What did I ever do to you?” ng Yu was trembling with anger. “We agreed to go against Song Fan together, and now you’re betraying !”

Hearing her fury, Xu Wen felt pleased. “What did you do to ? You nearly ruined !”

Thinking of how her own mother had used her as a scapegoat, Xu Wen’s hatred burned. ng Yu would be terrified if she knew Xu Wen was actually Song Yin.

But now wasn’t the ti to reveal that. Considering ng Yu’s temperant, Xu Wen explained, “The necklace is with . The auction might be for a similar piece. Don’t worry. We’re allies. Since we both oppose Song Fan, we’re friends.”

Despite Xu Wen’s reassurances, ng Yu remained anxious. Tossing and turning all night, she finally made a decision.
