"I've prepared another gift for you!" Carol said, took out a gift box, and handed it to Heather.
Heather opened the gift box and found a pair of beautiful dazzling earrings lying quietly inside.
"This... How beautiful!" she said, her eyes lighting up.
She took out the earrings. "Are they made of the Moussaieff Red Diamond?"
"Yes. Heather, you really have sharp eyes," Carol marveled. "But it's just a pair of earrings, so it's not expensive. It's worth only a million dollars, but at least it's much better than the earrings made of fake rubies!"
"What do you an?" Allen's expression changed dramatically as he questioned angrily.
"What do I an?" Carol sneered. "You're holding a pair of twenty-dollar fake earrings, but you're actually trying to pretend that they are a pair of earrings that cost 200,000 dollars? Who do you want to disgust? Do you think no one has ever seen sothing good before?"
"Impossible!" Allen yelled, looked down in disbelief at the earrings in the box.
Were the earrings fake? If they were fake, he was a complete joke today! No... that wasn't the worst yet. He had heard Randy Denmark of the Denmark family was very protective and really cruel. If this incident reached his ears, the Christopher family would have a hard ti!
"It is impossible indeed," Heather spoke confidently.
A glimr of hope appeared on Allen's face.
"The earrings have been made skillfully. It's worth at least two hundred dollars as it is able to be considered to be real," Heather said lightly.
Allen was completely despairing. Were the earrings really...fake?
"No! It's impossible!" Allen shouted, almost devastated. "It must be because you want to humiliate on purpose that you say the real thing is false!"
"Fuck! Is this man a psycho? Does he think others can't tell they are fake?"
"Carol works in the jewelry business. She's a famous jewelry appraiser. Okay? What kind of jewels can escape her sharp eyes?"
"I think he's retarded! Shouldn't he honestly admit that he didn't know anything about jewelry and that he has been deceived? At least he can keep his dignity in this way. However, he falsely accuses others instead of admitting his mistake!"

Listening to the discussion of the guests around him, Allen felt as if soone had thrown cold water on him, which made him co to his senses.
What the hell was he doing? Not only did he offend Heather, but he was trying harder and harder to court death.
"Miss, Miss Denmark..." Allen felt his legs were trembling. He paled and tried to explain, but he didn't know what to say.
"Enough, don't say anything!" Carol said bluntly, "Allen, you'd better leave before everyone knows you!"
If she allowed him to stay, tonight's party would be completely ruined.
Allen still wanted to fix it, but Carol wouldn't give him a chance anymore. A couple of waiters ca over and dragged him directly in the direction of the door.
His mouth was covered, so he could not speak. He looked despairing toward the party, only to see that no one cared about him at all, and everyone continued enjoying the party.
Heather was relieved to see Allen leave.
All of a sudden, she smiled. "Don't let what happened just now bother you. By the way, I happen to have so good news to share!"
"What's it?" Carol chuckled and said, "You have a boyfriend?"
Although Carol had seen Alexander standing next to Heather and was impressed by his gorgeous looks, she didn't think much of it. After all, Denmark's family's siblings are freaks in their circles. It was not clear whether it was because they had high expectations or they weren't interested in the opposite sex, they had never had a special relationship with the opposite sex.
"Yes, I have a boyfriend," Heather replied with a smile.
In a flash, the hall fell silent, and everyone looked at Heather in disbelief.
Her words were undoubtedly a bombshell.
Heather... actually had a boyfriend? A few young handso n present instantly felt sour and jealous, as if they were lovelorn. Of course, they were all Heather's friends, but many of them had a crush on her.
"It's real?" Carol scread.
"You bet. Would I joke about such a thing?" Heather said.
"Where's he now?" Carol was more curious. "Have you brought him with you today? Introduce him to us."
Everyone looked at Heather in unison.
Heather isn't the kind of young girl who was easily fooled. Besides, she had the Denmark family protecting her. Since the man could be her boyfriend, at least he was excellent in every respect. They were really curious about who had the power to win Heather's heart.
"He has co. He's waiting in the lounge. I'll ask him to co."
With that, Heather took out her phone and directly made a call.
However, a phone rang in the banquet hall.
Heather looked at the sound and happened to see Alexander co in through a side door.
With a smile on her face, she trotted. "Why are you here?"
When he saw her run, Alexander quickly held out his hand to protect her, afraid that she would lose her balance and fall while running.
He whispered, "I reckon you've almost done, so I co."
Everyone looked at them with mixed feelings.
Alexander looked very handso. He and Heather looked like a perfect match. But most crucially, Heather had a sweet, happy girly smile when she was with him. When they stayed with her, they had never seen her wear such a smile.
Besides, they could see from the way Alexander had protected Heather that he really cared about her.
In an instant, so of Heather's friends began to accept Alexander.
Now, the only question was Alexander's family. They didn't despise the poor. However, they were worried that when they chatted with others who were not from the sa circle as them, others couldn't understand their topics, and there would be conflicts between them.
"Heather, can you introduce us?" Carol asked.
"Nice to et you," Alexander said politely. "I'm Alexander Christopher, Heather's boyfriend."
Alexander Christopher?!
Everyone was taken aback. They had long heard of this na.
"Alexander Christopher from H & C Inc.?" Carol asked.
Alexander nodded. "Yes."
