Chapter 80
Norah collapsed on the bed, feeling resentful and indignant.
“Raine is too stupid.
I should start with Snow.” At least Snow had a brain and would not implicate her.
She took out her phone and sent a text message to Snow with a sneer.
Meanwhile, in the Riddle mansion, Snow got a notification ding on her phone.
She opened the message that contained only a few words, yet it made her ecstatic.
(Harvey will arrive in San Joto tomorrow.) Snow replied to the message from Norah with a thank you and lay back on the bed happily.
Thinking that Harvey Ellison would be back tomorrow, Snow could no longer sleep.
She hurriedly took out her outfits from the closet to see in which she looked the best.
Karen was walking by and overheard a noise inside.
Wearing a silk nightie, she poked her head through the gap in the door and said in a not-too-happy voice, “What makes you so restless on the weekend night? Where are you going by dressing up like that?” Snow paused and turned her head to look at her mother with a smile.
“Mom, Harvey will be back in San Joto tomorrow.” She bowed her head shyly.
She knew Karen liked to hear the news of her and Harvey getting closer.
Her mother would be thrilled.
Sure enough, when Karen heard Harvey’s name, she looked delighted.
“Harvey is coming back? Then you should dress up.
Tell me what you lack, okay? You are my most outstanding daughter.
Remember, make sure you find a way to make Harvey your man.”
After saying that, Karen hurried back to her room.
When she came back out, there was a beautiful diamond necklace in her hand.
“Take this.
Wear this one when you see Harvey.
It is worth twenty million dollars.
Don’t lose it.”
Snow took the necklace in her hand with a dim light flashing in her eyes.
I am going to wear it and will not lose it,” she whispered.
Karen happily nodded.
Even so, when Snow told her that Harvey was interested in her, she could still not believe it.
The Ellison family was an influential force in San Joto, not someone the Riddle family could be comparable with.
If Harvey was into Snow, then Dillon would benefit from it as his status in Riddle Corporation would be elevated.
As time passed, Karen started to believe that Harvey had feelings for her daughter.
It was the dowry from her maiden family, the most expensive of all her jewelry, the one, and only piece.
She looked at Snow and said dotingly, “Take care of your image in school.
