Chapter 265
Her words exposed her lie. Everyone had guessed it. But nobody cared who made the incense anymore.
The rash on Ruby’s hands and face was getting worse. Sam said, Hector, call Dr. York. Dr. York was the family doctor of the Xenos family and had come back to the country with the family
Suddenly. Hector remembered something. “Dr. York took the day off to visit his hometown today. But the family doctor of the Sullivan family should be available. I’ll go find him.” Naomi also had a family doctor. Her nanny Ivy once suddenly had a heart issue.
Hector learned it not long ago. The family doctor would come here every evening to do a check–up. He usually wouldn’t leave until ten. So, he was likely still there now.
Sam said, “Okay, okay, go quickly and get the doctor from the Sullivan residence.” He didn’t even remember who or where the Sullivans were at that moment. He was only focused on one thing: getting a doctor to treat Ruby as soon as possible.
Hector hurriedly stood up and left. Harvey followed closely behind him and said, “I’ll go with you.”
Sam was clearly angry. He looked furious. Shirley realized she was in trouble so she decided to blame it on Cynthia.
Shirley said, “Dad, I didn’t know there was anything wrong with the incense. I didn’t. Cynthia made the incense. It’s her fault.” She walked to Ruby. “Mr. and Mrs. Xenos, I swear I didn’t know the incense could cause allergic reactions, I didn’t
mean to
But Sam said with a stern look, “Ms. Jones, didn’t you just say that you made the incense yourself? Now you know nothing about it? Whether you’re just trying to avoid the consequences or lied about who made it, you’re not trustworthy.”
Shirley was stunned, completely lost about what to do. Sam added, “Mr. Jones, I thought Shirley had a special connection with my family so I wanted to give her my family heirloom left for my daughter. But it turns out to be a rushed conclusion. Please, give the pendant back to me.
“I know once I give someone something, it shouldn’t be taken back. But that pendant is a family heirloom. It’s priceless in terms of that but it is not worth anything on the market. I will pay 150 million for it. Mr. Jones, I hope you understand it.”
Justin felt hopeless. But to his surprise, Sam offered to pay 150 million for the pendant. It was something that happened only once in a life time.
Right now, Justin’s company’s stock price was falling sharply and its finances were unhealthy. The bank was only making things worse by delaying the loan. If a serious cash flow issue happened, the Jones family would be bankrupted.
150 million would be a lifeline, let alone it was cash. It could make the market value of the company increase several times. Besides, if that pendant couldn’t help him form an alliance with the Xenos, it was just a worthless stone to him.
Justin was incredibly happy deep inside but he still looked regrefful and sad. “Mr. Xenos, don’t say that. I know my daughter disappointed you. That pendant was originally the Xenos family’s property. Of course, I will return it to you?!
He turned to Shirley and said, “Shirley, hurry up and return the pendant to Mr. Xenos. Justin was very polite. He didn’t mention anything about the 150 million dollars that Sam just offered.
Firstly, the Jones family was also a prominent family in Roncrity He needed to maintain its reputation. Secondly, he knew for a century–old prestigious family like the Xenos, 150 million dollars was nothing. Once they promised it, they would never go back on it
At the same time, Shirley was completely stunned upon hearing his words. She thought, ‘Why give it back to him? Yes, he
offered 150 million dollars. But 150 million is not much.”
Compared to the Xenos family’s money, 140 million was nothing. She still wanted to become the Xenos family’s daughter-

in–law and this was her only chance to beat Cynthia
She thought only by marrying into the Xenos family could she be equal to Cynthia and eventually surpass her. However, things were not going well. She had made a pretty bad impression on Sam.
She wondered what she should do to change Sam’s impression of her and make him like her. Shirley thought there was only one solution.
She said firmly. “Mr. Xenos, we can’t take your money, You gave the pendant to me when I was younger. It’s my fault. I wanted so much to make you and Mrs. Xenos happy so I lied. I didn’t make the incense. I’m sorry. I don’t want to make excuses. Please forgive me.”
up
Shirley sounded sincere. She took out a beautiful box from her handbag and walked over to Mr. Xenos, looking like she was about to burst into tears yet still trying hard to hold them back.
She continued. “Mr. and Mrs. Xenos, I’m really sorry for today. Someone else made this incense and gave it to me. It was said to be calming so I wanted to give it to Mrs. Xenos. I wanted to look more sincere.
“So I lied that I made it. I was too vain. Mr. Xenos and Mrs. Xenos, I was wrong. Please, forgive me.”
Shirley choked up with tears flowing down her face nonstop. She bowed at ninety degrees, looking deeply apologetic.
