Chapter 231 A Lesson Is Enough
Felix was taken aback for a moment.
He had thought Finnegan would directly teach Francesca a lesson
However, it was better if Finnegan didn’t make a move He quickly said, “Francesca, quickly show Mr. Larkin the thing
“Felix, who exactly is he that you’re so afraid of him?”
Francesca was extremely upset.
“Cut the crap and hurry up!” Felix scolded, unable to provide a detailed explanation.
Francesca’s delicate body trembled. She gritted her teeth, wanting to say something.
But when she met Finnegan’s emotionless gaze, her heart skipped a beat.
Reluctantly, she ordered, “Go, bring me the Eternal Crown.”
Taking advantage of the moment when the Chappell family’s bodyguard went to fetch the item, Felix stepped forward.
“Finnegan, there might have been a misunderstanding tonight. I was just about to ask the hotel to check the surveillance. You-”
Finnegan nodded. “We’ll talk about any misunderstandings later. Let’s solve one problem at a time!”
A thought stirred in Felix’s mind.
Does he want to…
Considering a certain possibility, Felix looked at Francesca with sympathy, hoping that the outcome wouldn’t be too bad.
Soon, the Chappell family’s bodyguard came over, carrying a tray with a dazzling and magnificent crown on it. However, some of the decorative diamonds on the crown had fallen off, and the golden top of the crown had already been deformed.
The gem, akin to a luminous pearl, embedded above had already fallen off.
Francesca said in a cold voice, “While the damage appears to be non-severe and repairable, the act of repairing it will significantly diminish its value. In fact, one could argue that it would lose its status as a collectible entirely!”
Finnegan chose to ignore Francesca, his gaze falling upon the Eternal Crown. noveldrama
At a glance, one could tell that this was a crown with at least a thousand years of history.
It would be difficult to replicate its original patina.
Francesca let out a soft huff and continued, “Rumor has it that this was once the crown of a great emperor.
It’s no ordinary crown!”
Felix gently reminded, “Francesca, maybe you should say a little less!”
It’s clear that Finnegan is holding back his anger. Francesca really has no sense of the situation.
Francesca was curious about who Finnegan was. She was surprised that he could make Felix so uneasy.
However, she didn’t pay much attention to it in her heart, as she had no recollection of any big shot named Finnegan in her memory.
Finnegan’s eyes, fixed on the crown, flashed with an unusual glint. He picked up the gem that resembled a luminous pearl and examined it carefully.
Seeing him just standing there, Francesca grew impatient again. “Kid, don’t waste my time. Can you even understand the value of this treasure? You should hurry up and ask Mr. Haimowitz to help your sister, then kneel and beg for my forgiveness. Otherwise… I’ll make you suffer more than my two bodyguards!”
Felix’s face changed. He really wanted to slap that delicate face of Francesca.
Can’t you feel yourself going down?
Finnegan set down gem.
He slowly turned his head toward Francesca, his eyes indifferent. “Indeed, it’s worth eight hundred million. Give me your account information!”
Upon hearing this, Felix quickly spoke up. “Finnegan, it was because Wynter had Rhiannon replace her that this happened today. We should be the ones to pay for this.”
“No need. I can shoulder my sister’s mistakes as her brother.”
Francesca was anything but calm.
She asked doubtfully, “You have eight hundred million”
Is he some rich young man I’ve never heard of?
But as soon as she had that thought, Francesca forcefully dismissed it. If Finnegan was indeed the son of some prominent figure, why would he let his sister serve as Wynter’s secretary?
Her confidence surged once more. “Can you really produce eight hundred million? Don’t try to fool me here!”
“Your account number!”
