The President’s Mistake A Tale of Love and Regret novel Chapter 534

Grace was momentarily stunned; she hadn't expected Nathaniel to speak to her so gently, leaving her completely bewildered.

She stammered, "I like it."

Nathaniel chuckled softly, his voice icy, as he picked up the gold necklace and, with his own hands, placed it around Grace's slender neck.

The necklace, being twenty years old, was outdated both in design and the hue of the gemstone pendant, making it a poor match for Grace's otherwise glamorous appearance.

Grace knew the necklace was ugly but hadn't realized it was this dreadful. Wearing it made her feel incredibly awkward, and she could even hear the low chuckles from the wealthy women around her.

Despite her embarrassment, Grace thought, this was something Mr. Nathaniel spent thirty million on. Those women couldn’t dream of wearing something this valuable.

Freya couldn't hold back any longer as she watched Nathaniel personally place her mother's necklace around Grace's neck.

She stood up and quickly left the venue.

Low murmurs of conversation filled the room. Tonight’s scene was intriguing; Mr. Nathaniel was genuinely ruthless, directly infuriating his wife.

Freya could no longer maintain her usual calm demeanor. She hurriedly exited the venue, ignoring the surprised and even disdainful looks from the crowd.

To the onlookers, it seemed like Freya, the original wife, had lost completely. But to Freya, it felt like old wounds from the past had been cruelly torn open again, bleeding anew.

She quickly left the hall, unable to stop the tears from streaming down her cheeks.

She hadn't expected herself to cry; it turned out she wasn't as strong as she thought.

Nathaniel’s methods were indeed cruel, always able to find that one point to break her, leaving her in pieces.

Worried that something might happen to her, Mandy hurried after Freya.
