Seeing the long-lost little angel, Lily Gray couldn’t help but curl her lips up into a smile.
Austin Lucas, sitting across from her, was almost dazzled by her bright smile.
Feeling somewhat guilty, he coughed lightly, pulling Lily Gray’s thoughts back to reality.
Lily quickly closed the citrine, pressed on the special part, and gently tapped the diamond surface.
The whole piece of citrine became one again, with no flaws visible.
“It looks real, so I guess I’ll believe you this time,” she said, pretending that she couldn’t distinguish its authenticity.
The secret of the necklace couldn’t be revealed to others.
Austin Lucas averted his gaze from her much brighter eyes and looked down at his cup, “Now that I’ve given you the thing, when will you release my people?”
Although he tried to sound indifferent, he knew that the tone of his question had softened considerably compared to the past.
But Lily Gray didn’t appreciate it.
She abruptly stood up, put the necklace in her bag, and said, “You can go to the police station to pick them up now. I have things to do at my company, so I’ll be leaving.”
“Wait a minute.” Seeing Lily Gray about to leave, Austin Lucas instinctively called out to her.
She turned, a trace of impatience in her eyes.
“Anything else, Mr. Lucas?”
“You…”
As she looked straight at him with her shining peach blossom eyes, Austin Lucas felt as if his heart had been firmly grasped by something.
“You…don’t look well. You just took over the Gray family, and it’s natural to feel overwhelmed. The Gray family is going through some turbulence, so try not to push yourself too hard…”
“I don’t need your concern, ATr. Lucas.”
Her eyes were filled with mockery as she coldly said, “After all, I owe everything 1 have today to you, Mr. Lucas. Please don’t be pretentious and hypocritical here.”
With that, Lily Gray left the coffee shop without looking back.
Watching Lily Gray’s thin but stubborn figure, Austin Lucas’s eyes were filled with an indescribable darkness.
However, neither Lily Gray nor Austin Lucas had noticed.
In another corner of the coffee shop, someone had taken photos of their entire meeting.

After Austin Lucas left, Milly Gray hid in a corner and called Vivian Walters.
No one knew that she and Vivian Walters were actually “friends.”
Milly had been jealous of Lily Gray being able to marry into the Lucas family but looked down on Austin’s illegitimate status and refused to seduce him.
So one time, when Lily Gray invited Vivian Walters and Skye Brown over to her house, Milly immediately recognized Vivian’s true nature.
Milly secretly approached Vivian and even created opportunities for her to hook up with her cousin-in-law, Austin Lucas.
Since then, she and Vivian have kept in touch.
“Vivian, guess who 1 just saw at the coffee shop?”
Milly lowered her voice and exaggeratedly said, “I saw Lily Gray and Austin Lucas! That despicable woman, Lily, is secretly meeting with Austin Lucas. She must not have changed her ways and still wants to seduce Austin. I’ll send you the pictures later. You must take her down this time and show no mercy!”

After receiving the necklace, the gloom that had been on Lily Gray’s face for days disappeared.
After careful consideration, she decided that it was not safe to keep the necklace on her and went to the bank to store it in a safe deposit box.
By the time she returned to the Gray family, the person in charge of Wellington Entertainment had arrived.
Thanks to Dylan Wellington’s approval, the person in charge was very polite to Lily Gray.
Both parties immediately agreed on terms, including the filming team, crew coordination, and other issues. Wellington Entertainment was willing to cooperate with the Gray family in every aspect.
The negotiation process went smoothly, and almost all the details were sorted out in just an afternoon.
After the negotiation, it happened to be time to get off work.
Lily Gray felt a little hungry, so she decided to buy double portions of ingredients.
She planned to go to David Redington’s house and cook for both of them.
Under the setting sun, a beautiful figure stepped out of a taxi, carrying a bag of groceries, and slowly walked into the Blue Bay Estates Community..
