Chapter 511

Carly couldn't believe her eyes as she stared at the necklace on the marble shelf. To get a better look, she took a few steps closer.The pendant had an old-fashioned design with detailed carvings that gave a strong historical vibe.It was obvious that this pendant was extremely valuable. It wasn't something just anyone could afford.Even though Carly grew up in wealth and luxury, she hardly ever saw jewelry of such exceptional quality.Even in the Turner family, she realized that only a few, or maybe only her father, could afford such an exquisite piece.Carly wondered whether Natasha was capable of splurging on something so extravagant.And what puzzled her even more was Natasha's apparent nonchalance, leaving the expensive necklace unguarded on the shelf. Natasha was seemingly unconcerned about the risk of theft.It just didn't make sense to Carly. Her face tightened with unease as she cautiously approached the pendant.She wondered if this pendant didn't belong to Natasha,

Natasha's expression immediately became inscrutable.Carly sneered. "Seriously, what's so impressive about a pendant anyway? I can't even touch it? You're acting like it's some kind of treasure."Natasha merely smiled."Yeah, it's indeed nothing special. You must have plenty of nice things, Ms. Turner. Do bring some over for me to check out sometime," Natasha said while earnestly looking at Carly.That got Carly feeling a bit shaky, and her tone faltered. "Oh, the Turner family definitely has plenty of… nice things!"But pendants like the one Natasha had were few and far between.Even though Carly was feeling a bit shaky, she promptly raised her voice, almost like she was trying to reassure herself."Not just anyone gets to see the Turner family's possessions!"It was as if she was hinting that Natasha wasn't worthy of seeing anything from her family.Natasha looked at Carly with a straight face.To Natasha, innocent and simple-minded girls like Carly were easy to figure out

Chapter 513

Natasha couldn't believe someone had locked the door on purpose. Her brows furrowed as she sensed trouble brewing.She pressed her lips together and immediately began searching for her phone.Austin was about to arrive, and she agreed to attend this event today solely to see him. She had to get to the venue as soon as possible.Natasha furrowed her brows as she searched through her bag for her phone.But after thoroughly rummaging through her handbag, she realized her phone was nowhere to be found.Natasha felt a sinking feeling in her chest.She quickened her pace. Her phone remained elusive even after turning her bag upside down and even laying out her wool blanket on the table.Where on earth could her phone be?Natasha was baffled. She was sure she had put it in her bag.Could someone have taken it?Could someone have not only taken her phone but also locked the changing room's door to keep her from contacting anyone outside and trapping her here?Natasha felt a surge of

Chapter 514

Even though Michael said he wasn't nervous, he was stumbling over his words and having a hard time speaking clearly."Alright, there's no need to fret." Austin maintained his warm smile.He gestured with his cup and continued leisurely, "Could you fetch me some White Meadowsweet from beside that rock?"Fresh Meadowsweet could help neutralize the scent in the air."White Meadowsweet?" Michael walked over to where Austin had indicated.Despite his limited knowledge of herbs, he had to pretend he knew what he was doing.Bending down, Michael carefully scanned the area.He thought that considering the name, the herb had to be white, right?With that in mind, he pushed aside the surrounding foliage, hoping to catch a glimpse of white.But all he found was either dark brown earth or lush green grass, with no white in sight.This made his heart race nervously.With no white in sight, how was he supposed to find White Meadowsweet?But he couldn't bring himself to ask Austin again,

"Is that so?" Austin's eyebrows shot up in surprise before a skeptical expression took over. "No way."He couldn't fathom Serranoa coffee being available anywhere else but the Sullivan family's place."It's real. I've seen it myself," Zion affirmed.But Austin wasn't buying it. Shaking his hand dismissively, he said, "Nah, you must have been mistaken."Austin was so sure because Serranoa coffee had strict growing conditions. Across the nation, suitable cultivation areas were scarce.There was simply no way for anyone to successfully cultivate it outside of Topola's Herb Valley.Seeing Austin still doubting him, Zion couldn't help but smile.Giving Austin an encouraging pat on the shoulder, he declared, "I'm telling you, I didn't make a mistake! The coffee looked just like Serranoa coffee. My eyesight is too good for me to have been mistaken!"Zion was no stranger to the world. Even though he hadn't had any Serranoa coffee himself, he had definitely come across it before.Austi

Zion was genuinely having trouble remembering.Austin simply nodded in response.His thoughts were a jumble of mixed emotions as he pondered whether the prodigy was indeed from the Grayson family."But why do you ask?" Zion raised an eyebrow, intrigued.Waving his hand dismissively, Austin replied, "Oh, it's nothing. I just feel like anyone who can get their hands on Serranoa coffee seems rather impressive."Even though his remark was casual, there was a hint of preoccupation in his tone.If it was indeed someone from the Grayson family, it meant they were more capable than he had thought. Perhaps Joshua did have some talent and skill after all.As they were talking, a waiter suddenly dashed toward them. He was looking flustered as if there was an emergency."Mr. Sullivan, is this the White Meadowsweet you were talking about?"Michael, looking sharp in a suit, held out two healthy-looking grass plants. The grass' color was a bit odd. It was sort of a mix between white and blac

Chapter 517

Zion's choice of words was highly inappropriate, even verging on offensive.Yet, the bodyguard across from him appeared unperturbed. He responded with a simple "Okay" before obediently stepping back.Austin was left looking completely confused and surprised.He missed the whole whispered conversation between Zion and the bodyguard, so all he saw was Zion suddenly getting all fired up for no apparent reason.Zion's demeanor and behavior came off as incredibly crude.All of this left Austin taken aback, especially considering Daniel's earlier description of the event's host as a cultured individual with an interest in pharmaceutical research.This was part of why Austin had agreed to attend.There would usually be a sense of mutual respect among intellectuals.But now, this man hardly seemed like a cultured person at all. He was more like a market fishmonger with his gestures and talk.Austin couldn't help but wonder if Daniel was playing a trick on him. The idea of his own son

"Why let anger ruin such a beautiful day, Mr. Davis? It's not good for your health or your wealth, you know."Daniel clearly shared Austin's amiable demeanor. They were both usually pretty easygoing.Daniel walked over with a smile and managed to calm Zion down with just a few words.Upon hearing this, Zion's countenance eased, as if he saw Daniel's point. He managed to crack a smile."How'd you get here?" Austin asked, looking over at his son.Daniel raised his hand. "Dad, it's time to go. We need to move to the front.""So soon?" Austin set his coffee aside and stood up slowly. "Is Natty already there?"Though Austin's words seemed casual, Daniel could hear the concern in them."Don't worry." Daniel grinned. "Natty was practically begging me to bring her along to Flowerville the moment she heard you were coming."She's been looking forward to seeing you. She's probably been waiting in the foyer for a while now. We'll definitely bump into her when we head out."Daniel intent

Chapter 519

Daniel was worried about Natasha because she wasn't answering the phone.He looked puzzled but didn't give up and pressed the call button again.He thought Natasha might be busy, so she didn't hear her phone ringing.However, like just now, the phone rang for a long time, but there was no answer.Then, a robotic female voice was heard saying, "Hello, the number you've dialed is currently unavailable."This time, Daniel suddenly noticed something in the content of the robotic female's speech. It said that Natasha's phone was currently unavailable.This meant it wasn't just a matter of Natasha not hearing her phone ring.Daniel couldn't help wondering if something had happened to Natasha.As soon as the thought crossed his mind, he immediately dismissed it.It was impossible. This was a formal medical conference. The security was extremely tight.Furthermore, only wealthy families from Topola were invited to the banquet. So, there definitely wouldn't be wrongdoers here.Daniel

Chapter 520

Seeing that he couldn't stop Austin any longer, Daniel quickly found another excuse."Hey! Dad, there are still a few things outside that aren't ready! The tables and chairs haven't been prepared yet. You'll just be causing trouble for them if you go out now!"Austin stopped in his tracks.He turned around with a puzzled expression and asked, "Things aren't ready yet?"Daniel hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Yes, I'm not lying to you."He walked to Austin's side and pushed him back to his original position. Austin ended up back in his recliner, looking bewildered.As if fearing Austin would stand up again, Daniel pressed him into his recliner.This time, Austin didn't get up anymore. He sat quietly in his recliner with a calm expression, patiently waiting for the people in the front hall to get ready.Seeing him no longer restless, Daniel let out a sigh of relief inwardly.He had been worried about Natasha and had a feeling that something was wrong.Therefore, after
