My Wife is a Hacker (Nicole Riddle and Jared) novel Chapter 325

 

Chapter 325
After a few seconds of silence, Snow then realized she did not hear any response echoing her remarks from the surrounding people. She felt odd and wanted to say something further, but Raine gently pulled her sleeve.
Snow was startled. The moment she looked down at the item in her hand, her face turned grave.
There was no pink diamond in that box. It was a crystal-clear purple diamond more than double the size of Snow’s diamond!
‘What on earth is happening?!’ Everyone finally came to their senses. Murmurs could be heard from the crowd:
“Didn’t she say it was a ten-carat pink diamond? But that’s obviously a twenty-five-carat purple diamond.”
“Exactly. It’s different from what Snow claimed. Could it be the color of the diamond has changed?”
When they were puzzled, a derisive voice came from behind.
“What are you, stupid or something? That’s the default packaging method for this kind of unique and exquisite diamonds when they are sent across the borders to our country. Look at the serial number below that purple diamond, and you’ll know it’s a high-rated one. So, there’s no way its color would change!
“Fine. Let’s assume, even though it’s unlikely, the color changed due to some methods. It’s impossible that its purity would change, let alone its size, which became more than double overnight!
To everyone’s surprise, the one speaking was Jack Pearson!
It was known that the Pearson family had gained wealth in the jewelry industry, so his words were highly credible.
After listening to his words, there was a strange look in everybody’s eyes, including Jack, when they looked at Nicole.
‘In other words, Nicole has a purple diamond, which is far more valuable than the pink diamond Snow claimed to be hers?
‘Who would have gone after a smaller diamond if they had a topmost diamond in size more than double the smaller one?’
When they thought of that, they turned to look at Snow, wondering why Snow would accuse someone like Nicole, who already had a purple diamond with a quality far higher than hers.
Snow stared at the magnificent purple diamond before her in disbelief.
“Impossible!”
Snow directed her gaze at Nicole, her eyes bloodshot. She no longer looked like the decent girl with the poise that everyone had thought her to be. She asked, “Where did you get this diamond?”
She snarled in her mind, There’s no way Nicole can own a high-grade diamond. Even I could only get it from Harvey!’
A cold glint filled Nicole’s eyes when she was looking at Snow, who did not show any remorse. She radiated an intimidating beauty.
She bypassed the stupefied Gary, who was blocking her way. Gary was looking at that purple diamond. He could barely conceal his shock. However, what followed next was a pensive torpor. ‘I should’ve known it. Nicole and Jared Johnston are in a relationship, and that kind of guy can buy Nicole any top-grade diamonds anytime!’ He parted his lips. But eventually, nothing came out of his mouth.
At that moment, Snow was the only one Nicole glared at. Standing gracefully tall in front of Snow, Nicole looked down at this cousin who had been messing with her since her return to the Riddle family.
Snow shuddered in response to Nicole’s icy stare. The black box fell off her trembling hand and hit the ground. The magnificent diamond came off and rolled, radiating a blinding dazzle.
