Wellington Tu didn't expect Lily Wei to reject him. The muscles on his face trembled slightly, but he still didn't give up. He continued, "Lily, you really don't want to accept this gift?"
"This, this is not good Lily was a little embarrassed.
Auntie Cao, who was next to her, quickly spoke up for her son at this moment and said, "Lily, it's nothing. Although this necklace is expensive, Wellington can afford it. Besides, this is also a gift that Wellington carefully prepared. Lily, you don't have to think so much."
Listening to his mother's words, Wellington had an affectionate expression on his face. He held the necklace with both hands as he approached Lily and he tried to help Lily put on the necklace.
Moreover, Wellington was standing right in front of Lily. When he approached her, his body was getting closer and closer, almost touching her. He lowered his head slightly and moved closer to her lips. He wanted to kiss her directly in this romantic atmosphere.
Lily frowned slightly and wanted to push Wellington away. But thinking of the relationship between her mother and Auntie Cao, she was a little hesitant.
Just as Lily was hesitating, Wellington came over with the necklace and pressed his lips down.
At this critical moment, there was a quick flash of a figure and someone directly appeared between Lily and Wellington.
Wellington initially had deep affection in his eyes. He looked down at Lily's delicate face and was ready to kiss her. He suddenly felt dazed, and then a man's face appeared.
Wellington was shocked. His lips, which were about to come over, were drawn back quickly. He staggered and almost fell to the ground.
At this time, he fixed his eyes and saw clearly that the man in front of him was Fade. Wellington gnashed his teeth, and his face was full of resentment. He stared at Fade and shouted in a deep voice, "What are you going to do?"
Fade, with an innocent look on his face, took the Platinum Star necklace from Wellington's hand and said, "Your necklace is nice."
While talking, Fade grabbed the delicate necklace with his greasy large hands. He turned it over clumsily, placing it on his neck a few times, and even said to Lily with a smile, "Sister Lily, how about I wear this necklace? Does it look good on me?"
Seeing Fade's reaction, Lily knew that he came forward on purpose to help her out. Immediately, she was amused and moved by this. She could only give Fade a knowing look.
This look caused Wellington's heart to burn with a raging fire of jealousy, and he was furious.
"Your dirty hands shouldn't touch my necklace," Wellington said. He reached out angrily and took the necklace back from Fade. He looked at the greasy handprint on the necklace and was very angry. He glared at Fade and said, "You, how dare you-"
"I'm just taking a look at your necklace. If you don't want to show it to me, just say it. I'll give it back to you. Why are you so angry?" Fade said.
Wellington was so angry that he could explode. "Do you know how precious my necklace is? The designer Miguel designed it himself. It's worth more than two million yuan. If it is broken, can you afford to pay for it?" he asked.
"It's just two million, and that is just a small amount of money!" Fade said lightly.
"You're still bragging, I—" Wellington was so angry that he couldn't speak clearly at this moment.
Auntie Cao snorted coldly. She stood up and spoke up for her son. "Fade, you've gone too far. How can you grab such a precious necklace? Not to mention breaking it, you can't afford to pay for it even if it's slightly damaged. Do you know that?"
"It's just a necklace, isn't it? Even if it's broken, I can compensate for it," Fade said calmly.
Then, the waitress came in.
Wellington immediately laughed and mocked, "Haha, the waitress came back after buying a necklace for you. I would like to see what kind of quality the necklace has!"
The waitress did not walk up to them at all. Instead, she turned aside and made a gesture of greeting. "Chief Tai, Mr. Chen is inside," she said.
Then, they saw a middle-aged man with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses walking in.
As soon as Wellington saw the man, he was shocked. He stood up and said respectfully, "Chief Tai, what, what are you doing here? Yes, because I—"
Without waiting for Wellington to finish, Chief Tai glanced at him. Then, he quickly walked to Fade, bowed, and said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Chen!"
Seeing this, Wellington and Auntie Cao were both stunned. They frowned slightly and looked at this scene with doubts all over their faces.
"Chief Tai, you, he-"
Chief Tai ignored him and took out a small gift box with a respectful expression. He handed it to Fade and said, "Mr. Chen, I've brought the things you wanted."
Fade nodded, opened the gift box, and then took out an exquisite necklace. As soon as this necklace was taken out, everyone's eyes lit up. The sparkling light, the simple shape, the delicate details all exuded a unique and noble aura.
