Adalyn turned pale and then blushed.

“No, My Lord Duke, my family is fine. Today, I am only...”

“Lady Emily, have your finances fallen into trouble after buying Sir Goldin's shares in the school? So,

why did you do it?”

“Indeed, you cannot afford even one piece of jewelry, and you are wearing only a crystal flower on your

neck. Lady Adalyn, it's the Duke's birthday today. Even the king will grace this function. Is your dressing

appropriate?”

Adalyn was at a loss for words.

Everyone present started to criticize and insult Adalyn without restraint.

When Sir Goldin's shares were bought off by a foreigner, they were displeased. On top of that, Adalyn

had shown so much favor to that girl.

Finally, Adalyn's countenance fell.

The king will make an appearance?

If that is so, then my attire today is embarrassing.

Adalyn turned pale and got ready to leave immediately.

At that very moment, a girl dressed in a school uniform made her way through the crowd. She

witnessed so many people ganging up on Adalyn.

The girl's face was cold and stern!

“What is wrong with her attire? The stars today are the old Duke and the old Duchess. Our Lady Adalyn

is plainly dressed so that they can shine. Isn't that a good idea?”

With that, the girl took the gift box from Adalyn and opened it.

Instantly, a dazzling light came from inside the box, and everyone was shocked to see a long sword

studded with gems was the gift.

“Heavens! I-Isn't that the sword that the old Duke lost in battle long ago?”

“That's right. The old Duke has been pining for it all these years. Where did she find it?”

“It's a mystery...”

When the last phrase was uttered, it was apparent that the gift had outshone every other gift brought by

the guests in the whole hall.

Indeed, this was the truest well-wishing for a birthday.

The other guests had outshone the host and taken away his glory.

On the other hand, Adalyn had brought a gift that the old Duke desired, and she had obscured her own

brilliance so that he could shine. This was a friend indeed.

Everyone in the hall blushed in shame.

Yet, that was not all. In the next moment, when Adalyn stepped forth to present her gift, the old

Duchess discovered the cherry blossom on Adalyn's neck.

“I-Is this Lucifer's Tears?”

“What?”

Adalyn was puzzled.

Even Vivian, who was standing next to her, did not know what was going on.

However, the old duchess was even more excited. “Yes, it's the Lucifer's Tears! Oh my! Who did this? It

is wrong to cut up a good pink diamond that is famous all over the world.”

Adalyn was speechless.

The guests gasped.

For one second, not a sound was heard but only the suspenseful breathing of the crowd.

At that moment, Vivian only wanted to find a way out through the crowd and admit it to her Daddy, or

else he might give her a scolding.

It was too late, though.

“Vivian, what is this?”

“Oh! Lady Adalyn, I-I didn't know, really. This is a bracelet my daddy bought for me. Seeing that you

have no jewelry, I just rearranged it to let you wear it on your neck.”

Again, Adalyn was speechless.

Thud!

Most of the guests there felt their legs going weak after hearing that.

This is unimaginable!

Many of the rich aristocrats and nobles had spent their entire lives in vain to obtain this rare pink

diamond, but her father cut it up and made it into a bracelet for her. Now, she had strung it into a cherry

blossom for another woman.

The crowd was overwhelmed.

Finally, Adalyn quickly took off the so-called cherry blossom and carefully returned to the wild little girl.

“Vivian, you have no idea how invaluable these stones are. How could you be so careless? Quickly,

keep it carefully.”

“A-All right...”

Vivian kept the stones with care.

When she lifted her eyes to look at the guests in the hall again, she found that they met her eyes one

by one, smiling stiffly. Only moments ago, they were showing off their gems and diamonds.

Now, they had taken them off and were trying to hide them.

Sigh!

She sighed as she did not do it on purpose.

Vivian scratched her head apologetically.

“You must be the Princess of the Jadeson family! Come on, let's go and meet the king. He has arrived.”

“Huh?”

After having kept the crystal flower carefully, she was at a loss when the old Duke and Duchess came

and asked her to come along to meet the king.

“Come on, Vivian. I will accompany you. If you can become the royal designer of the royal family, you

will be able to meet with more excellent designers. They are all very famous, and they only design for

the royal family,” Adalyn encouraged.

Naturally, she was growing fonder of the little girl, but she did not tell her that the young prince of the

royal family had also arrived.q
