Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Chapter 417: Master Irene



As soon as those words were spoken, others began to feel that Tina was being overly harsh. They started whispering among themselves.

“This Tina really is fearless with Mr. Farrell’s favor.”

“What can you do? She’s beautiful.”

“Those who act unjustly will meet their end. She’ll suffer eventually.”

The murmurs of discontent grew, and Vivienne’s eyes darkened. Tina chuckled lightly and said, “Fine! For Mr. Farrell’s sake, why don’t you apologize?”

“Why should my daughter apologize? You were the one who insulted her design first. Just because you’re marrying into the Farrell family, you think a country bumpkin can become a phoenix?” Clara couldn’t hold back any longer. Her son had just been sent to the hospital, and now they wanted her daughter to be humiliated too? It was too much!

Vivienne remained silent. Even if Logan and Jared sided with Tina, they couldn’t silence the crowd. The people’s sentiments were on her side now.

Tina looked at Clara with disdain. “What? Your daughter’s design can’t be criticized? How big is your family’s face that my mother should wear flawed jewelry?”

Clara was about to speak when Tina coldly interrupted her. “Or do you think I can’t provide my mother with better jewelry than this set?”

“You don’t understand! My daughter’s design was personally approved by Master Irene!” Clara blurted out in her anxiety.

Vivienne’s expression darkened but she didn’t refute. The words were already out; what use was it to argue now?

Unexpectedly, Logan spoke slowly, “I’ve never heard of Vivienne being recognized by Master Irene. Has anyone here seen Master Irene?”

Vivienne’s face turned red and then white. Her own grandfather had exposed her lie, leaving her no dignity.

She had no choice but to step forward bravely, “Grandfather, it’s not something important, so I didn’t mention it to you. I met Master Irene not long ago, and this set of jewelry was designed under his guidance.”

The crowd gasped. Those who knew about jewelry understood that Master Irene was a legend in the design world. Years ago, he had created a set called ‘Shinny Star’ that stunned the world. It was auctioned off for a billion dollars by a mysterious buyer and never seen again.

Since then, Master Irene had become a legend. No one expected that Vivienne had met him and received his guidance.

Vivienne’s jewelry instantly rose to a divine level!

Tina frowned slightly; Vivienne really knew how to seize an opportunity. With just one sentence, leveraging Master Irene’s fame, she had defined the value of her jewelry.

Tina smirked and slowly walked over to the No. 0 jewelry set. Everyone watched intently, wondering what she intended to do.

Unexpectedly, she took out a silver needle and began dismantling the jewelry!

“Tina, what are you doing!” Vivienne angrily stepped forward to stop her.

Jared extended his hand to block Vivienne, “Why so anxious? It’s just a set of jewelry. If it’s damaged, I’ll compensate you.”

Vivienne gritted her teeth but knew she couldn’t win against Jared and had to stand still.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

In less than half a minute, Tina stopped what she was doing and turned around. The No. 0 jewelry set looked as good as new but slightly different upon closer inspection.

“Why did she dismantle it and then put it back together… wait, she removed two diamonds and rearranged them; it looks more refined now!”

“Although I can’t pinpoint the difference, I like it much more than before.”

“The original design was a bit cumbersome and stifling, but after this modification, it’s perfect!”

Vivienne was stunned; this was exactly how she wanted it! How could this be?

A deep voice came from the crowd, “It has the touch of Master Irene.”

The crowd exclaimed again, “Yes, the last time I was this amazed was with ‘Shinny Star.'”

“This set isn’t as breathtaking as ‘Shinny Star,’ mainly because its original form couldn’t compare. If redesigned from scratch, it would be much better.”

Tina glanced at Vivienne, “This is what it looks like after Master Irene’s guidance. Unfortunately, it’s another stain on my life.”

Vivienne looked at Tina in disbelief. Did she mishear? Was Tina implying that she was Master Irene?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could Tina be Master Irene? What a joke!

Others also picked up on Tina’s implication.

“Are you really Master Irene?”

“No way! How could Master Irene be such a young girl? And isn’t she Waverly Underwood?”

Tina had so many identities that it seemed unbelievable for one person to be so versatile-she wasn’t a robot!

Ian tapped his cane loudly in the silence and slowly walked up to Tina. “What are the two letters on the back of the ‘Shinny Star’ necklace?”

Tina’s eyes curved into a smile; it seemed fate had brought them together. She stepped forward and said with a smile, “Sir, it’s on the diamond in the middle of the bracelet-two letters: NW, my mother’s initials.”

She had designed that piece thinking of her mother’s eyes and engraved Natalie’s name on it.

Anyone who hadn’t seen ‘Shinny Star’ wouldn’t know this detail. Besides the mysterious buyer from back then, only Master Irene would know!

“And the font?” Ian asked again.

“French script with a solid star at the end of W,” Tina replied unhurriedly.

Ian nodded in acknowledgment as Jack brought out ‘Shinny Star.’

“Miss Reed is indeed Master Irene; this ‘Shinny Star’ proves it.”

When the jewelry box opened, revealing the long-hidden ‘Shinny Star,’ Ian smiled.

“I originally planned to give it to you; now I’ve changed my mind.”

Tina nodded naturally, “Of course not; I don’t need you to return what’s rightfully mine after taking your money.”

Ian laughed heartily; he liked Tina more and more now.

Jack closed the box and said to Jared, “Mr. Farrell, I’m afraid our collaboration must end. I don’t want a designer full of lies handling our future jewelry products.”

Vivienne stepped back numbly; only now did she realize that these two people in front of her were from Clearwater Brookes family who had reached an initial agreement with the company!

But what did he mean by that?

Could it be…

Jared glanced at Vivienne coldly, “Mr. Brookes, we also do not need such a designer.”

“Then let’s continue our collaboration,” Jack said satisfactorily.
