Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 419

Vivian finally understood why the most beautiful mushrooms were the most poisonous.

Lolita was a velvet paw.

Behind her innocent and lovely face was a woman shrewder than anyone else.

An angel's face with a devil's heart.

"You're right, Vivian. These natural lines define Mr. Burke's work. But I bet he used the marine streamline in this work instead of fire rock one, right?

I understood it after you mentioned it. The theme of the Christmas series is romance, but I think it's more like punkish. There are various themes...

And this sapphire pendant. Is it from South Africa? I heard that it came from medieval Australia and was cut into countless pieces by Master Lena. This one had the most perfect shape, right, Vivian?"

Lolita said, wide-eyed in excitement.

Vivian's face paled. She had been paying attention to a lot of things in the jewelry industry, from loose diamonds to the freshest designs of the best artisans.

Jewelry making is a huge industry. Numerous products are made every day. How could Vivian keep up with all of that? She had only made something up to impress Lolita and the others, when in fact, she knew nothing about it. But now that Lolita actually knew a lot of this particular piece, Vivian felt tremendously embarrassed.

What a fierce comeback!

"Since you know so much about it, why ask me?" Vivian said, calmly.

It was then she figured out that Lolita came here with a purpose. She deliberately asked Vivian to introduce the pieces so she could see how much Vivian knew and correct her if she made a mistake.

Nothing was more painful to Vivian than to be outsmarted in her own territory.

A newcomer humiliated her in front of so many people, putting her reputation on the line.

"Oh, no, Vivian. I'm not trying to look like a know-it-all. I just happened to recognize some of them, that's all. Surely, Gabrielle knows more than me." Lolita turned to her friend. "Gabrielle, did I miss anything just now? Correct me if I'm wrong."

Gabrielle was amused at her acting. She was sure Lolita knew more about the items than she let on. Nonetheless, Vivian had been caught up in Lolita's pace.

Her main goal was to give Vivian a dose of her own medicine.

Gabrielle was in on it too. Vivian had been disrespectful to them from the start. She had no one to blame but herself.

"Actually, let me add a little trivia about the sapphire pendant. It was in South Africa once because it was bought by a rich merchant from the country. The diamond wasn't produced there," Gabrielle said.

"And about the new theme of this Christmas series, punk would be one of them, and the other style would be magic."

Gabrielle's detailed follow-up embarrassed Vi

vian all the more.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see what they were doing.
