Chapter 340 I Have the Real One!
“The chess set looks exquisite and glossy, especially the chess board… There is no
way counterfeit ones could look like this…” Ashlyn obviously did not buy Paige’s story.
Diana sided with the Hart family as well. “Paige must have seen information about the
chess set somewhere on the Internet before, right? But just because Adrianna’s chess
set doesn’t look exactly like the one Paige saw on the Internet doesn’t mean
Adrianna’s stuff is counterfeit. After all, screens can’t always present things the way
they exactly are…”
Only by seeing things with his or her own eyes could one believe these things were
genuine.
Martin held Paige’s waist and defended Paige, “My fiancée only made a comment on
it because.
Mrs. Higgins asked her to. Paige didn’t mean to offend anyone. And she is right about
the chess set. It does look rather ordinary. I wonder why is it that hard for people to
speak the truth these days. Should we all say flattering remarks?”
Martin’s words embarrassed not only the Hart family but also Ashlyn and Diana.
“Martin, even you think so?” Adrianna bit her lower lip, thinking, obviously, Martin is
protecting
Paige. He even called her his fiancée. That means he cares about Paige a lot.
What did the girl do to make this happen?
“Please call me in a less affectionate way,” Martin looked into Adrianna’s eyes and
said. indifferently. “We have only met a few times. Technically, we’re just strangers.
You calling me that. affectionately might make people mistaken about our
relationship.”
Martin defending Paige again and again had embarrassed Adrianna greatly. That
made Scott want to interfere.
“Adrianna knows that Mrs. Stowe loves to play chess. Therefore, she spent a lot of
effort asking around to buy it. All she wants is to show her kindness to Mrs. Stowe. But
now the gift she prepared is regarded as a fake one. That’s why she feels upset… But
do you think the Hart family. would actually bring something fake here?”
Rosa Garcia, who was sitting at the head of the table, smiled elegantly, “Counterfeit or
not, the chess board is not supposed to be ours. It’s way too precious. But I do
appreciate it that Adrianna treats me this kindly. Now please take it back.”
After that, Rosa sorted out the packaging a bit and had Neil put it on the coffee table
in front of Adrianna.
By doing this, Rosa meant to ask Adrianna to take it back when she left.
Paige, come here.” Rosa waved to Paige.
Then Rosa arranged for Paige to sit between her and Killian before patting the back of
Paige’s hand affectionately while saying, “I like kids who are straightforward, unlike
those who always hint at something.”
Hearing that, everyone present looked rather embarrassed.
“Young people should all be like you. You remind me of what I was like when I was
young. We two are actually much alike…” Rosa smiled again.
“Mrs. Stowe, Ms. Paige hasn’t told me why the chess board is counterfeit yet!”
Adrianna, who was sitting on the sofa, said bitterly.
Adrianna thought, I have to make Paige give an explanation today!
Just like that, Adrianna once again brought up the topic, which Rosa was so close to
distracting people from. There was once again tension in the room.
“I think Adrianna is still puzzled as to the accusation against the chess set. She must
be wondering could it be that Ms. Paige is wrong or Ms. Paige doesn’t have an eye for
this kind of stuff…” Diana tried to talk in Adrianna’s favor. “The accusation that Ms.
Paige made not only devalues the chess set but also Adrianna’s kindness to Mrs.
Stowe…”
“Right. I don’t care how people appraise the stuff I bring along, but my good intention?
