“Do I have to report to you whenever I come to see Grandpa?” Nicole hit back.

“Nicole, come and sit down.” Mr. Riddle Sr. was happy to see Nicole, whom he had seen in a while.

“Grandpa, are you feeling okay?” Nicole said with concern.

“Still in good health. Don‘t worry about me.” Mr. Riddle Sr. beamed, his voice forceful.

“I can tell by Grandpa‘s voice. You‘re so fake,” Raine said sarcastically.

Nicole did not want to get into it with her. She looked at Mr. Riddle Sr. and said, “Grandpa, I‘m getting betrothed to Jared in a few days. Can you come?”

“Glad to hear that. I give you guys my blessing, but I won‘t be there for your betrothal . I will send you a gift when the time comes, anyway.” Mr. Riddle Sr. said, sounding hale and hearty.

“Grandpa , we don‘t want gifts. We are happy to see you are always healthy and with us.” Nicole was all smiles. Only in front of Mr. Riddle Sr. and Jared could she smile so happily.

“Nicole, I didn‘t know that you were so filial.” Raine

standing behind Mr. Riddle Sr., was ready to find fault with Nicole

“Raine, will you stay out of the way when I‘m talking to Grandpa?” Nicole reprimanded her with frosty eyes.

“You–”

“All right, Raine. Go over there and rest for a while,” Mr. Riddle Sr. said, and Raine had no choice but to walk away.

“Snow, didn‘t you see Nicole‘s smug look? Why didn‘t you say something?” Raine angrily complained to Snow. “Grandpa likes Nicole a lot, plus she will be betrothed to Jared soon, and Grandpa will like her even more. So don‘t be upset with yourself,” Snow said.

“You are really forgiving, eh,” Raine said sarcastically to Snow.

Nicole took out the box that Chloe had asked her to and handed it to Mr. Riddle Sr. “Grandpa , this is what Chloe asked me to bring you. She said that Henry knew you liked to collect things, so he specially bought the Dresden Green Diamond from abroad for you.”

“It is so kind of Henry.” Mr. Riddle Sr. took the box and put it in his hand without the intention of opening it. “Grandpa, why don‘t you open it and take a look?” Nicole asked curiously.

“Right, Grandpa. Open it and check to see if there is

anything broken.” Raine and Snow immediately came over when they heard that the diamond was bought from abroad.

Seeing that his three granddaughters wanted him to open it, he smiled. “I will open it up then and let you all help me take a look at it.” “Okay. Okay.” Raine nodded her head repeatedly.

Mr. Riddle Sr. gently opened the box, and a sparkling diamond came into view.

“This is the Dresden Green Diamond?” Raine exclaimed in amazement.

Mr. Riddle Sr. took it in his hand and looked at it, then his face sank, and the smile on his face disappeared . Nicole saw his expression and immediately asked, “Grandpa, what‘s wrong? Is there

something wrong with the diamond?”

Snow and Raine heard what Nicole said and immediately looked at her. “How could there be a problem with such a nice–looking diamond? Stop making trouble here.”

“Bring me my glasses,” Mr. Riddle Sr. said to the family butler.

His glasses were brought up. He picked up a loupe and looked at the diamond carefully. After a long while, he put down the loupe and sighed in disappointment. “This is not a Dresden Green Diamond but just a relatively pure diamond.”

“What?” Nicole, Snow, and Raine exclaimed in shock.
