Scarlett glanced at Secretary Emerson and opened the box to find a set of diamond jewelry.
In the past, Scarlett had received lots of precious gifts from people who wanted to raise money from MoCorporation, so she had seen many rare and unusual objects.
However, Scarlett was mysterious, and those people could not find out what she liked, and they gave her all kinds of treasures.

After all, she had to deal with all sorts of merchants, and these antiques would cin handy one day.
After being reunited with the Tank family, she saw more antiques. When Kate was young, making money and collecting antiques were the only things she was interested in. The cottage next to the Tank family's villa was filled with Kate's collection.
Larry was a politician, and the Tank family had to keep a low profile. Scarlett, on the contrary, was a businesswoman and needed streasures to keep up her appearance. Rowan had given her lots of those antiques last year.
Anyone with taste and sense could see that the jewelry in the box was unusual, not to mention Scarlett.
Seeing the carver on the diamond jewelry, she knew that this jewelry was age-old and valuable.
Secretary Emerson took a look at Scarlett and explained, "This is Ms. Wilson's mother's dowry. Ms. Wilson only took this set of jewelry when she went abroad. Before the Wilson family was down, Ms. Wilson's mother turned down an offer of more than $80 million for this jewelry, saying it was her dowry and she planned to give it to Ms.
Wilson." "Later, Bestro Corporation went bankrupt. Ms. Wilson's mother planned to sell it at a low price to raise money to help the company tide over the difficulties. But the company's debt was too large, and Mr. Wilson committed suicide before Ms.

"Ms. Wilson, in her sober state, toldthe other day that she knew you had no shortage of money or any of this jewelry. This little gift is a token of her appreciation, Ms. Reed. She really wanted you to like it." How could Scarlett not like such a valuable gift? Rose had planned to give it to Scarlett in person on the day she married Chris.
However, it was Sod's Law-Rose didn't make it to their wedding. When she died, she didn't even have the strength to say a word. Unfortunately, the gift could only be sent on her behalf by Secretary Emerson.
Scarlett closed the box carefully and said," I like it very much. Really. Thank you, Secretary Emerson." Secretary smiled, "Glad you like it." Secretary Emerson had worked for Rose for over twenty years. Within days of Rose's death, she was haggard.
"I have plans tomorrow. | won't see you off. Have a safe trip, Ms. Reed. Goodbye." "Okay, goodbye." After seeing Secretary Emerson off, Scarlett looked down at the box for a long tand then cback to her room.
When Chris cback at night, she showed Chris the jewelry, "Ms. Wilson asked Secretary Emerson to give it to me." Chris glanced at it, "It was supposed to be for Camille." On hearing that, Scarlett raised her eyebrows and asked, "If | hadn't followed you at the casino, you'd be Camille's husband by now, right?" After all, both the Wilson family and the Lee family were powerful families, and Chris and Camille's marriage would only strengthen their families. In addition, Camille had feelings for Chris.
Coupled with Rose's serious illness, an early wedding was not out of the question.
Chris looked up at Scarlett, "No, | won't marry Camille." Even before Scarlett appeared, he had never thought of marrying Camille.
