Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 593: Seriously, Mr. Pace, Do You Have the Nerve?

Rachel looked so wronged that nobody would believe she was alright. Boris followed Rachel's gaze to Tina. "Is

she stealing your thunder again? Don't worry, I'll get revenge for you soon. No one can bully you while I'm here,"

Boris said coldly. Soon after, nearly all the guests had arrived. Jack, holding Kiki and Mimi, made sformal

remarks before beginning the gift-giving segment.

Sophia, on behalf of the Farrell family, presented two longevity locks, which were quite special. Anyone with a

discerning eye could tell that these were antiques bought at a high price over a decade ago, supposedly a gift

from ancient twin princesses. Everyone was impressed; the Farrell family always had a unique touch.

Tina waited until almost everyone had finished their presentations before stepping forward. "Happy birthday, Kiki

and Mimi." Upon opening the gift box, two exquisite pendants sparkled, making Kiki and Mimi's eyes light up

instantly. Indeed, no matter the age, women couldn't control themselves in front of jewelry. "Thank you, Tina."

"I really love it!" Tina ruffled the two kids' hair. These pendants, along with the shoes Natalie had given earlier,

would ensure Kiki and Mimi stayed healthy for at least three years.

Everyone was admiring Tina's generous gift, as such pendants were nowhere to be found on the market. Then, a

snicker cfrom the crowd, "I was wondering what kind of gift Miss Reed would bring, just a pair of pendants,

how uninspired. | heard Grandpa Brookes once gave you a 'Heart of Hope'; you could've easily picked something

from your warehouse without much effort, but instead, you deceive children."

Everyone looked toward the source of the voice-it was Boris. The Brookes family members looked downcast, and

the Farrells were hardly pleased. Publicly mocking their daughter-in-law was something the Farrells couldn't

tolerate! Tina, holding Jared's arm, stepped forward. "I wonder what you have brought, Mr. Pace? It might be

enlightening for this master of deception." Boris snorted and presented his gift, an old wooden box. Opening it, a

burst of colorful light nearly blinded the attendees.

Everyone gasped upon closer inspection. It was a multicolored glaze stone! Such stones were rare, seen once in

a hundred years, and could be made into any piece of jewelry or art, priceless and irreplaceable. And this was

not something money could buy. The last tit had surfaced was five years ago, shown by a mysterious

collector-who turned out to be Boris.

When it comes to the world's top aristocrats, the Pace family was unparalleled. To casually gift such precious

multicolored glaze stones was extraordinary-two of them, no less! Marie, a collector herself, was dazzled by the

sight of the glaze stones, though she despised Boris and muttered, "Showing off, what for? My son will have

stoo one day."

Jared chuckled, stepping forward and wrapping his arm around Tina's waist. "Mr. Pace, these are multicolored

glaze stones?"

"Of course, though very precious, they're worth it for Kiki and Mimi," Boris replied gentlemanly, bending down to

present the stones to Kiki and Mimi. "My two princesses, do you like these gifts?"

Although Kiki and Mimi were fond of the gift, their enthusiasm waned when they recalled Boris's recent

demeanor toward Tina. Seeing that the children were silent, Rachel crouched down to smooth things over. "Kiki

and Mimi, this is a special gift selected by Uncle Pace just for you two. Say thank you."

Boris, keen to please Rachel, chimed in, "It was Aunt Rachel who mentioned you like shiny things, so here it is."

"Mr. Pace, could | take a look at your multicolored glass stone?" Jared asked.

Boris, disdainfully raising his head and noticing Jared protectively holding Tina close, looked down on him even

more. He had once thought Jared to be a hero worthy of respect, only to find him disappointingly devoted to a

woman. Unbeknownst to Boris, wasn't he himself caught in the sorbit around Rachel?

Boris handed the box over, "Mr. Farrell, please have a look."

Jared took the multicolored glass stone from the box, tossing it up and down as if it were a mere iron ball.

This frightened Boris, who exclaimed, "Jared, what are you doing?"

Tina, with a slight smile, said, "This glass stone can't be shattered, only cut with special tools. What are you

afraid of?"

Boris frowned, "I'm not afraid, Mr. Farrell, but isn't it impolite to mistreat someone else's gift like this?"

Jared, holding two pieces of the glass stone, suddenly threw them to the ground! To everyone's astonishment,

the supposedly unbreakable stones shattered with a crisp sound, leaving no fragments on the pebbled path. The

crowd was stunned, unsure of what to do next.

It shattered? Wasn't it unbreakable?

Brandon was the first to burst into laughter, nearly choking himself with mirth. His laughter triggered Marie, and

soon everyone joined in.

Boris's face turned red and then white, as if the shattered stones themselves were splintering across his visage.

Even Rachel could not maintain her composure.

This was from the Pace family. They had given a gift, meant for children, and it turned out to be fake. Wasn't this

just deceiving the kids?

Tina coughed lightly, suppressing a smile, "Mr. Pace, don't blyourself. These multicolored glass stones are

rare; it's normal not to recognize them." Boris, already unable to save face, felt an intense sting of

embarrassment as he pointed at Tina and accused, "Don't act as if you've seen them before!" Tina shrugged,

"Interestingly, | have."

Then, turning to the kids, she asked, "Kiki and Mimi, could you please bringthe pendants | gave you?"

Obediently, Kiki and Mimi removed the pendants and handed them to Tina, who deliberately or not, failed to

catch them, letting them fall to the ground.

These were made of jade, and falling would surely break them.

Regardless, Scarlett would never allow such waste. She was about to catch them when she noticed Tina was

unmoved.

Upon closer inspection, the pendants not only survived the fall without a scratch but also emitted a bizarre glow

under the sunlight, revealing a spectrum of colors far purer than the supposed multicolored glass stone. "This is

the real multicolored glass stone!"
