Chapter 675
The man in the lead said, "We're from a security company. Mr. Jefferson asked US to make a delivery."
"Oh, come in..." Mrs. Watson muttered.
She was actually intimidated by their appearance and was relieved when she actually realized that they were not
actually thugs.
As Irene looked up, the men opened one of the suitcases on the coffee table. "Ms. Spencer, yes? Please confirm
you have received these items."
’What are they?" she asked.
"Feel free to take a look."
The men spun the suitcases to her end, and Irene was left raising her brow when she was what was inside.
She did not know her jewelry, but she could tell that the set lying in the suitcase there was worth a fortune.
The man introduced, “It's an antique, and once belonged to the royal household of Yvesia. Mr. Jefferson acquired

to Zidonia."
Irene had no idea what all of that meant, but the price tag left her frowning.
Surely this set of jewelry was worthy as an heirloom? But she had two sons, and when they married, which
daughter-in-law should she give it to?
Despite the dilemma, she was beaming, since she was at least capable of admiring beauty and this set of jewelry
was the epitome of it.
"The diamonds alternated with pigeon blood rubies. As the sizes are irregular, it ranges from 1.27 carats to 5.38."
Irene actually counted 26 oval rubies, each of them placed beside white olive-shaped diamonds. The arrangement
formed an exquisite shape, making the necklace appear as if it was a flower wreath.
There were earrings too, but one of the men said, "There was supposed to be a bracelet with this set, but a
collector must have bought it separately, leaving it incomplete."
Irene nodded in understanding, and asked, "What about that one?"
One of the men opened the other suitcase to reveal a tiara, and Irene could tell immediately that it was worth as
much as the other set.
That meant her daughters-in-law would inherit one each.
Still, Isaac was not going to be happy if he realized that she was not emotional about the gifts, but how she would
share them between her daughter-in-laws!
"Is this a part of the set too?"
There was an emerald bangle in the suitcase where the tiara was placed. It was padded with black velvet, and the
shade seemed to brighten the gems' sparkle.
"I think so," the leader replied.
Irene nodded. "Thank you."
’Just doing our job, ma’am."
Mrs. Watson saw them off, while Irene shut the suitcases and took them into the study, leaving it on the desk.
She then headed upstairs, where Lulu and Erin were more or less done with decorations.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was bland before, but the decorations added a liveliness to it.
"Are you happy?’ Erin asked.
"Yeah," Irene grinned-how could she not be, when she is going to marry the man she loved?
"Tut, tut. Just look at the bliss on your face," Erin teased.
On the other hand, Lulu was quietly arranging some balloons.
"You two should go downstairs and have some fruit," Irene said then. ’Actually, I'm mostly done here. I should go
home for the day," Lulu said.
’At least stay for dinner." Irene tried to get her to stay.
"I still have things to do." Lulu refused anyway.
Lulu was still very cold to her, and Irene could feel it.
Still, she did not hold it against Lulu since she had lost her memory.
Seeing that Lulu was leaving, Erin decided to leave too. Even if she and Irene get along just fine, Isaac's temper was
bad as ever and she would rather not see him glowering at her. "I should go too."
Irene walked with them to the door as a car drove in and Isaac alighted!
