The price of One Jewel Road was equivalent to two villas. novelbin


Clara felt so embarrassed. She had just boasted about living in Jewel Road and claimed that Samantha was deeply envious of her. But now, she realized that Samantha had moved in before her, and into the most luxurious villa on the street.


Envy, jealousy, and embarrassment raced through Clara’s mind.


The number one villa of Jewel Road was so luxurious that even Seth might not have the means to buy it.


‘How can she afford to live at One Jewel Road?” Clara stood there enviously. Her mind raced, searching for a reasonable explanation for this unexpected news. Alas, nothing came to her.


Seth was also astonished. At the alumni gathering, he too had come to believe that Adrian’s deed was fake. But now, in front of their opulent villa, he realized it was true standing


Clara had never felt as embarrassed as she did at that moment. Her face flushed with shame. She looked around, hoping for an explanation, but none came.


Feeling embarrassed and out of place, Clara tugged at Seth’s arm. “Babe, let’s get out of here,” she whispered urgently.


Seth nodded in agreement.


The pair quickly turned and left, eager to escape the uncomfortable situation.


At that point, Seth was perplexed by how Samantha had the means to stay in the most expensive villa in Jewel Road.


He originally hoped to impress her with his wealth, but now that she was already living in that villa, it was clear that money was not an issue for her. He knew he had to come up with a new scheme.


Clara, filled with shame, left the scene but was planning to return and discuss Samantha’s residency at Jewel Road with the Cowells.


One Jewel Road


Samantha was unfazed by Clara’s demeaning words. Instead, she felt excitement at the thought of going out for tacos with Joanna tonight. After dropping Juno home, she informed Rue about the plan and headed out with Joanna and Adrian.


As the three of them walked out of the villa, they noticed that Clara had already walked off far ahead.


Joanna spoke up, “Sam, it’s been two years. Why is Clara still the same? Look at her face. I really want to go up to her and give her a good slap!”


Clara had inherited the same characteristics as Madam Violet, making them both the same kind of person. Unfortunately, many Cowells displayed similar traits.


Samantha’s personality closely resembled that of her grandfather, who had played a pivotal role in her upbringing. He instilled in her good education and manners, shaping her into an exceptional individual.


As for Clara, she was beyond redemption in this lifetime.


Samantha replied, “Clara’s behavior is unlikely to change unless something significant that makes her regret her actions for the rest of her life happens. I’m more curious about her sudden relationship with


Seth. Wasn’t she supposed to be marrying Simon soon?”


Samantha shook her head in confusion, unable to comprehend the situation Adrian then offered a theory, “Seth is coming for you. He’s using Clara as a pawn to get closer to you. Clara, on the other hand, may be attracted to his wealth.”


This theory struck a chord with Samantha, and she felt a wave of embarrassment and unease wash over her. She asked, “is that really possible? Does he have nothing better to do than to play these games?”


Joanna interjected, “Adrian’s theory is entirely plausible. Don’t you recall the lengths Seth went to get with you in college? It’s


highly possible that he’s using Clara as a means to get closer to you.”


“He’s absolutely insane,” Samantha replied, frowning


“Adrian’s intuition is spot–on. He truly lives up to his name as War Legate Draco as he’s able to discern the other party’s intentions in a snap. His reputation isn’t just based on hearsay,” Joanna added.


After a brief pause, Adrian spoke up again, “If I’m not mistaken, Simon may be in trouble right now.”
