Chapter 34
The Diamond Necklace
You
Killian thought, what! He was doing that purposely
Then Paige chipped in with a faint smile, “There is no need to add any more medicine to it. It is just that you can’t drink alcohol anymore.”
“All right.”
“Paige has a point.” Killian nodded.
“Mrs. Stowe, I will take good care of Mr. Stowe in the future” Neil nodded.
“Just call me Paige,” Paige, helplessly, corrected him.
“No. I can’t call you by your name!”
“But it was you who plotted with Killian so as to make Killian be able to drink his alcohol, right?” Martin smiled and changed the topic
“I promise I won’t do that again.”
“Oh, right!”
Then something came across Killian’s mind, who then took out an exquisite small wooden box and opened it, revealing a beautiful necklace with a crown shaped pendant.
“This is Rosa’s favorite item among all her dowries back then. She asked me to give the necklace to the girl who Martin brings back to the family.”
The crown was made up of 999 top-grade diamonds, which made it look extremely beautiful.
Paige knew that the necklace was famous all over the world in the past because of the diamonds and its designer, which cost them a good 300 million dollars to make the necklace.
And now, it was worth far more than that price.
“I can’t accept such a valuable gift
Then Killian interrupted, “This is a gift Rosa wants to give to Martin’s wife. You have to accept it! If she is here now, I believe she would have already put it on for you…”
As Killian was speaking, the mention of Rosa Garcia, Martin’s grandma, saddened him.
Noticing that the light in Killian’s eyes had dimmed, Paige turned to look at Martin.
“A few years ago, Rosa had a car accident. She was reduced to a vegetative state because of that,” Martin explained
calmly
Although Rosa was alive, she couldn’t do anything.
She couldn’t move, talk, or feel pain.
They had invited countless famous doctors. But none could do anything about Rosa’s condition.
“Martin put it on for Paige.”
Noticing that Paige refused to accept it, Killian handed the box to Martin and muttered, “I don’t know how much longer I can be alive to watch you walk down the aisle. I felt that I was dying several times. If it were not for Rosa..”
Page was toured upon hearing this
Ahihi. Killian, Let s not talk about this today while Mrs. Stowe is here.”
Neil didn t want Killian s sadness to worsen his condition.
Right. Paige is here. Let’s not talk about this!”
Killian gave a smile again.
“Come here. I’ll put it on for you.”
Martin took out the necklace with his slender fingers as he moved closer to Paige.
Paige could smell the faint fragrance emitting from him. She wanted to turn it down but did not have the heart to do so due to Killian’s expectant eyes and what Killian had just said.
“It’s very beautiful.”
Martin’s eyes swept across Paige’s facial features. Her gorgeousness, starry eyes, and fair-skinned slender neck made it look like the beautiful and delicate crown was tailor-made for her
“It suits you very well.”
Martin raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes gentle like water.
“It would be great if Rosa could see this,” Killian said.
Martin’s lips curved slightly. “Paige, I will take you to visit her one day.”
Paige was surprised.
