"This has always been the motivation behind Alexa's jewelry design. Being a loyal fan of her work, I plan to follow in her footsteps this way. "I hope this gesture also maximizes the kindness Ms. Betty has shown me by giving me such a precious gift," stated Ada. Betty couldn't publicly deny that any longer. All she wanted was for a hole to open up in the ground and swallow her up."Madam Ada has decided that, on account of the meaning and gravitas of this piece crafted by Alexa herself, there will be no minimum bidding amount!" the auctioneer announced."30 million," a clear voice rang out. Jameson raised his paddle, a smile on his face.30 million? That was the highest starting bid of the night so far! Were they planning to go up to billions?Alexa's creations were indeed worth that price, but it was still an exorbitant amount."50 million." Jasper slowly raised his paddle, his expression calm save for a glint of ferocity in his eyes.The crowd was shocked by his bid.

Both Jasper and Jameson turned to look at Alyssa, knowing she was pissed now. So, they stopped bidding."Congratulations, Ms. Alyssa! This one-of-a-kind necklace is yours!" The auctioneer gestured happily, swiftly knocking the gavel to halt all other bids.There was a two-second silence before the hall erupted into clamorous applause.Alyssa's flat expression never wavered, however."Alyssa bought the fake, Mom! Do you think she saw through it?" Betty asked frantically, heart pounding like a frightened rabbit."Be quiet! Do you want everyone to hear you?" Sophia hissed venomously, pinching Betty's arm. Sophia added, "Alyssa wouldn't have noticed it was a fake, nor would she ever anticipate one turning up at her own auction. You should be grateful she bid off that necklace!""But what if she finds out a—""That has nothing to do with you anymore! Even if she does, you can always claim she swapped it out in order to insult you." Sophia scowled.Betty had always admired her moth

Alyssa then bowed deeply to the crowd, a picture of utmost sincerity.The hall slowly quietened down."Next, I would like to clarify here and now that this necklace called 'Lacrima Dei' was my donation to the auction."The guests turned to Ada with astonished looks on their faces. She, in turn, turned to gaze incredulously at Betty.Betty turned to Zoe, but the latter was already out of her seat.Zoe had escaped before the shit hit the fan!Alyssa watched the show unfold, a smirk appearing on her lips. "I had no idea you would be donating this necklace tonight, Madam Ada. Please trust me when I say it was a pure coincidence.""W-Why would you have 'Lacrima Dei' too, Ms. Alyssa?" Ada asked, her confidence out the window.Alyssa pursed her lips. "What matters right now isn't why I have this necklace, Madam Ada. What matters is that your necklace was a fake."What? A fake? Turmoil and confusion swept through the crowd.Sophia did her best to keep her expression composed, but Bet

The crowd erupted into gasps of shock and awe once more.Alyssa Taylor was Alexa?Something imploded in Jasper's mind, blanking his thoughts out entirely. He felt like his soul had left his body, slowly drifting out like an astronaut in space.Alyssa was Alexa. She was the world-renowned, reclusive jewelry designer who had the world at her feet because of her stunning creations. She had been making a fool out of him all this time while he tried his best to invite her onto his team, likely enjoying her little games to no end.Jasper snarled, anger and awe pumping through his veins. "You … You lied to me again … You fucking lied to me again!"Why did she always hide her true self from him? During the three years of marriage, all she did was reduce herself to a meek, quiet little woman who acted like some maid in the house. Why degrade herself like this?Was this some other ploy to rub his ignorance in his face?Jasper ground his teeth together, heart hurting in his chest. He c

The crowd's attention was now on Betty, their impression of her crumbling into pieces.Jasper remained calm, as if he had expected this to happen. He hadn't been able to meet Alexa herself even when he flew all the way to Yoarkley to find her, so there was no way someone like Betty could have gotten her hands on one of Alexa's creations.Jasper's anger rose once again at the thought of being toyed with, and he shot Alyssa a glare.The latter narrowed her eyes, a scowl appearing on her face. She wondered why Jasper was staring at her like that. She felt that Jasper was behaving like a lunatic. Betty couldn't take the accusatory gazes and comments from the crowd anymore. She shakily hid behind her mother, quaking like a leaf in the wind.Ada cried, "Have you been lying to me from the start, Ms. Betty? How could you resort to something so debased and repulsive just to get me to choose your hotel?""I-I …" But Betty didn't know what to say anymore. She was covered in cold sweat by

Sliva said, "Because of this, anyone who manages to buy a piece for themselves would never consider reselling it. I'm sure you must've felt you were being lied to when told this was a genuine product. "I'm also certain Ms. Alexa wouldn't sell any of her creations to you even if you gave her all the money in the world." Sliva's gaze showed a dark, cunning air before she added, "You are far from qualified to be able to obtain one, in any respect.""You … You!" Sophia cried, eyes bugging out from her face, but she couldn't find the words.The guests were on Sliva's side on this one. Sophia had caused trouble countless times by now, her reputation in Solana City on a needle's edge. If it weren't for her husband, Javier Beckett, she wouldn't have been able to stick around any longer.It was all the more infuriating that someone who was debased and shameless as Sophia was calling for justice to be done."Besides," Sliva said, turning to Betty, "Can you confidently say you had no cl

Sophia was just about to blow her top upon hearing that. All her rage was now directed toward that cunning bitch, Zoe Harper.The crowd went wild again. Betty wasn't some pitiful victim. She was the one who started this trail of lies! The reporters began reporting this to their respective platforms, with headlines like "Taylor Family Heiress is World-Renowned Jewelry Designer Alexa?", "What Else Have We Yet to See from Alyssa Taylor?", "Sophia Kirkman and Betty Beckett Humiliate Themselves Once Again—Lying to International Celebrity with Counterfeit Jewelry!", and finally, "Deep Look: When Will Sophia Kirkman and Betty Beckett Finally Stop Their Twisted Schemes?".Betty could never have imagined she would once again turn up on the headlines as yet another embarrassment in the nation in less than a year's time, this time even more riotous than before.Seeing how things were now out of control, Sophia tried to turn the bottle to Jasper. "Are you just going to stand there and let the

Alyssa smiled lightly, her eyes narrowing into crescent moons as she shot Jasper an amused look."Why does she look so familiar?" someone from the crowd asked."Oh! She's that chick who got caught sleeping with E-News Daily's CEO on a live stream!""Damn, she's still showing her face around here? If I were her, I'd change my name, get plastic surgery, and never return.""What the heck is she doing here? Hasn't she caused enough trouble?"Abigail took a deep, shaky breath to calm her nerves. "My name is Abigail Grant, and I was an employee from E-News Daily. "I'm here tonight so I can help administer some justice to those who were wrongly accused. Think of this as penance for my own crimes. "I am truly sorry to Ms. Alyssa Taylor of KS World Hotel. I was greedy and agreed to do what I should never have done. "I should never have persuaded her staff to steal the company's confidential information about Ms. Ada Kingsley's wedding, nor should I have sold it to the public media, u
