Task NO.1 How to Pursue Miss CEO novel Chapter 503

Chapter 503 The Heirloom—the Bracelet

“This is my mother’s bracelet!” Selena exclaimed. “Isn’t this…” The bracelet I bid in the auction? I remember winning the bid at a high price, but I later found out that Selena was actually among the competitors. Nonetheless, I gave it to her as a gift in the end.

“That’s right. This is the same bracelet that you gave me earlier. I don’t know how they got separated, but there are actually two of them. The one that you bid for last time was only one of them.” Selena quickly went through the content in the email. “This is the auction in which the bracelet will be sold, and it’ll be held in Yucaria.”

“Why do you look so concerned about the bracelet?” Pierre expressed his confusion, wondering why Selena would go so far as to spend a fortune on bidding for the bracelet after arriving at Digton City not long ago.

Soon, Selena put her cell phone aside and explained, “My mom’s name was Cecilia Davis. She was an outstanding designer, and her quality work was precisely what made our family business so successful until we subsequently got hit by a huge financial crisis. She sold off her bracelet to help my father keep the business afloat.” Selena sighed. “Yet he didn’t repay her sacrifice the way she deserved. Instead, he fooled around with other women and broke my mom’s heart, which eventually led to…”

Upon hearing that, Pierre quickly wrapped his arms around Selena with pity; he was able to empathize with her, considering their similar pasts. However, that was also the same reason behind why both of them hated unfaithful lovers so much. A few moments later, Pierre knitted his eyebrows in bafflement and asked, “This bracelet doesn’t look cheap. Why would an ordinary woman like your mother own something so precious?”

“It beats me as well. I only remember she told me it was an heirloom that had been passed down for generations.” Selena shook her head, believing that her mother was a modest lady with a simple background.

“Wait a second. If your mother was an ordinary person, she would have sold this heirloom that was worth billions and made herself a billionaire, don’t you think? If you had something so precious with you, would you sell it for a fortune?”

Selena was rendered speechless upon hearing Pierre’s words.
