Her fifth daughter died, so she deleted his bloodline. novel Chapter 249

Chapter 19

As dusk fell, Nathaniel was ready to meet his beloved.

The engagement gifts had arrived-three pieces of exquisite jewelry.

“The first is ‘Heart of True Love,’ a masterpiece by a renowned designer from Vesperia. Perfect for a proposal.”

“The second is ‘Frozen Devotion,’ designed by last year’s SKP global champion. Ideal for gifting to

one’s sweetheart…”

Nathaniel examined them. Both were breathtaking, each worth over a hundred million. Yet…

Something was missing. That one-of-a-kind uniqueness.

His assistant seemed to sense his hesitation and opened the third box.

“This was originally the winning piece for this year’s SKP competition. I only noticed it when you asked to replace it with Miss Montgomery’s design.”

“The craftsmanship is extraordinary-a sun and moon inlaid bracelet that separates into two standalone chains but interlocks seamlessly as one. The engraved teeth patterns are irreplicable, serving as both anti-theft and anti-counterfeit measures.”

“It’s Miss Sinclair’s work. If possible, perhaps we could purchase the design patent and commission her to create exclusive pieces for Hawthorne Jewelry…”

The moment Nathaniel saw the bracelet, the world went silent.

For a long moment, his heart seemed to stop.

A cold dread settled in his chest.

What if… Emily was the one he’d been searching for all these years?

Especially after everything he’d done to her…

“Mr. Hawthorne? Mr. Hawthorne!”

He pressed a hand to his chest, waiting for the suffocating pain to ease.

When it did, logic returned.

This design alone proved nothing. Emily might have simply seen the original and drawn

inspiration.

One thing was certain-the ruby bracelet Isabella wore could not have been Emily’s.

So why did his heart feel like it was weighed down by a thousand stones-so heavy, so suffocating?

No matter. Soon, the truth would be settled.

He personally drove the lead car of the procession heading to pick up Isabella.
