Chapter 234 Every Man for Himself
“Why don’t I help you put it on, Carolyn? Since the necklace matches what you’re wearing today, it’ll definitely look fantastic.”
“Really?” Carolyn smiled, delighted.
She had always loved jewelry, particularly emerald necklaces.
Kisa helped Carolyn put on her necklace with a smile, then told the servants to bring them a mirror.
Kisa placed the mirror in front of Carolyn and said, “Doesn’t it look stunning, Carolyn?”
“Mhm!” Carolyn nodded enthusiastically.
She then held Kisa’s hand and said affectionately, “You didn’t have to, Kisa. This necklace looks quite expensive.”
“Carolyn, you were kind enough to send me my mother’s belongings. You even allowed me to return to the Case family house to search for more of her belongings. Naturally, I have to show you my appreciation with some gifts. That’s why buying you this necklace is worth it, no matter the price.”
Just as Christopher heard Kisa’s words, a stiff expression appeared briefly on his face.
Meanwhile, Carolyn smiled without missing a beat, “That’s very sensible of you, Kisa.”
‘She’s truly a natural–born actress. She doesn’t look guilty at all,‘ thought Kisa.
She smiled and handed Christopher a calligraphy painting, “Dad, this is for you.” Christopher was noticeably taken aback, “You… You got a gift for me too?”
“Mhm. Jensen made the highest bid to get his hands on this painting, so it’s rather costly. I know you have a hobby of collecting calligraphy paintings, so I got this painting from him as a gift for you.”
After Christopher accepted the painting, the expression on his face became even more unnatural.
He looked at Kisa as if he had something to say, “Kisa…”
