âAbsolutely not!â
âYvie, this has nothing to do with you. Itâs our fault. We shouldnât have let ourselves be tempted by the gaming gear, and we definitely shouldnât have lied to Jacob!â
âYes, thatâs right. Weâre the ones at fault, and we deserve this punishment. You didnât do anything wrong, so go and rest for now!â
Their precious sister could do no wrong. Even if she made a mistake, it was always someone elseâs fault- never hers!
Sean, Ashton, and Jacob were all in perfect agreement, each a devoted protector of their sister.
âThatâs right, Yvie. Go ahead and rest. Donât worry about us!â
Despite the punishment, Sean and Ashton felt a warm glow in their hearts, touched by Yvetteâs concern for their wellâbeing.
And yet their considerate and kind sister had been taken by that scoundrel, Wilson Quinn!
Today was definitely another day to hate that old lecher!
After Sean and Ashton persuaded Yvie to return to her room and rest, they resignedly made their way to the memorial hall to face their punishment.
âMr. Murray, the Violet Kiss necklace has been acquired by the Quinn family,â Adam Knott, his assistant, reported respectfully.
âHmm.â Jacobâs dark eyes narrowed as he let out a cold chuckle. He mentally tallied another grievance against Wilson.
Not only had Wilson taken his precious sister, but now he had also outbid him on the Violet Kiss necklace meant for Yvette. This was a debt Jacob would not forget.
âIf Wilson is giving the Violet Kiss necklace to Yvie, then my gift for her must be even more extraordinary!â
Adam hesitated. âBut Mr. Murray, the Violet Kiss necklace is made from the finest gems, and its design is unparalleled. Itâs difficult to find anything more precious.â
Jacob thought for a moment before speaking in a firm tone, âContact YW Studio immediately. Make sure Ms. Yvy Weaver accepts our commission and designs a oneâofâaâkind gemstone necklace exclusively for Yvie. Spare no expense!â
Yvy Weaver was a worldâclass jewelry designer whose pieces were always fiercely sought after by the elite of high society. However, she retired from the jewelry industry recently and no longer took on design commissions. 1 âMr. Murray, this might be challenging. Ms. Weaver has been retired for several years, and despite substantial offers from many wealthy families, none have succeeded in persuading her.â
âThatâs because they didnât offer enough!â Jacob said coolly, his eyes gleaming with determination.
âIf the price is high enough, I refuse to believe she wonât be tempted.â
Being the wealthiest in Jubilife, the Murray family certainly wasnât short on money.
Jacobâs gift to Yvette had to be more valuable than anything Wilson could offer. A woman accustomed to luxury wouldnât be easily deceived!
Seeing Jacobâs determined expression, Adam dared not say more and promptly replied, âYes, Mr.
Murray.
